Chapter 1980
Estelle set her empty glass down on the coffee table with a clink and turned to Lambert, "We've
overstayed our welcome, it's time we head out!"
Lambert, seeing Estelle unharmed, realized he might have been overly concerned. The truth was, he
hadn't slept well the night before, which probably accounted for dozing off.
He stood up, his demeanor once again that of a charming gentleman, "Please extend my gratitude to
Mr. Alvis for his hospitality, and tell him we've taken our leave, Ms. Beverly."
Sylvia, with a light laugh and nod, responded, "You're always welcome here, Mr. Brennan. Don't be a
stranger."
Lambert smiled gently at Estelle, "Shall we?"
On the drive back, Lambert continued to check on Estelle, "Feeling alright?"
"Hm?" Estelle looked at him, puzzled.novelbin

That Night
It was the wee hours of the morning, but the Party AT Midnight was in full swing. The club was alive
with energy, showing no signs of slowing down.

The guard saluted respectfully as Winston stepped out of the elevator.
Winston nodded, "It's Christmas, why don’t you join the Party AT Midnight? I'll just check in here; no
need for interruptions."
The guard replied, "Thank you, Mr. Winston, but Mr. Raiden's orders are clear: no leaving the post
during the night shift."
Winston didn't press the issue and made his way to the lab door.
The lab required fingerprint recognition, and once Winston had gained access, the guard turned his
gaze away.
Inside, the lab was vast, filled with high-tech equipment. Two researchers, collecting samples, paused
to greet Winston.
Winston asked a couple of cursory questions before proceeding to the virus storage room.
The virus samples were kept in a refrigerated cabinet, each vial housing a different strain.
The cabinet required a dual-authentication of retinal and fingerprint scans.
Winston returned to the main lab area, where a naked man lay on a bed. The data indicated it was the
second day of experimentation. The man's skin was marked with various lesions, some areas
beginning to necrotize.
As the researchers examined the subject and recorded data, preparing to move him back to the
containment unit, Winston inquired, "How’s it going?"
Winston frowned, "I heard someone got out today and was found out by Mr. Huff's staff. It almost got to
Mr. Raiden. What happened?"
Winston nodded, "Fortunately, no harm done. I’ll keep Professor Bill's secret for now."
The researchers visibly relaxed. New chаpter av?ilable on Drаmanоvels.cом
"And which virus did the maid contract?" Winston asked.
"The S1005 strain," replied the curly-haired researcher.
"Show me," Winston commanded.
