Chapter 394

Jean's expression darkened frighteningly. Then, he agreed. "Okay, I'll arrange it. Wait for me."

After hanging up the phone, he turned and saw Joanna walking over. No one else was in the corridor, and Joannaapproached him.

She originally wanted to take this opportunity to show off her medical skills in front of Jean, but she met Jean'scold gaze.

She felt guilty for no reason, and her smile became stiff. "Mr. Beauvort, why are you staring at me? Are youworried about Madam? Don't worry..."

Before Joanna could finish speaking, Jean asked indifferently, "Is my mom improving as you said?"

Unexpectedly, he suddenly asked about Wrenn's condition. Joanna panicked even more. Why did he suddenly asksuch a question? Could it be that he knew or noticed something was wrong?

She felt doubtful and flustered but tried her best to control her expression to not show any flaws.

"Yes, Madam is getting better. I've been watching her. There will be no problem."

Although she said that, she was a little unconfident.

Although she developed the poison privately, she underestimated its onset speed. She thought she could controlWrenn's condition, but the result was quite different from what she thought.

Now, the toxin was about to invade Wrenn's heart! If it went on, Wrenn would die!

Joanna could not imagine how Jean would treat her if Wrenn died under her treatment! But she dared not to tellthe truth, so she could only lie to deceive everyone.

She had been restless because of the poisonous matter but dared not show it. She felt oppressed to the point ofbeing out of breath.

She held her emotions and evaded the fact while facing Jean's sharp gaze. "Mr. Beauvort, don't worry! I'll find away to make Madam heal as soon as possible!"

Jean stared at Joanna. His eyes were as sharp as a knife. It was like he wanted to see through her. "It's the best ifyou can make it!"

After saying that, he turned around and entered the ward with a frighteningly cold expression. Joanna's tense bodyrelaxed, and her heart kept trembling.

She felt something was wrong with Jean's expression. What made her even more uneasy was she had a faintfeeling that something terrible was about to happen.

An unprecedented panic filled her heart, and even the emotion of fear got aroused.

...

In the afternoon, Neera and her team spent time in emergency research and development in the research center.

Everyone concentrated on investigating as they had no time to care about anything except research. A tenseatmosphere pervaded every corner of the research room.

In the evening, under the persuasion of Philbert and Katy, Neera reluctantly stopped investigating and ate a fewmouthfuls of food to fill her stomach. Then, she returned to the research room and continued to shuttle betweenthe computer and research equipment.

At around ten o'clock, a phone call broke the tense silence in the research room.

It was Jean. "Are you free? You can come to the hospital now." novelbin

Neera kept staring at various liquids and the screen today, so she felt a little dizzy. She rubbed her forehead andwas full of exhaustion.

"Okay, but you may need to send someone to pick me up. I've been busy all day. I can't concentrate on driving."

Jean agreed. "Okay, wait for a while. Take a rest in the research center first."

After hanging up the phone, Neera told Philbert about her leaving and waited in the lobby at the entrance of theresearch center.

Neera thought that Jean only sent Ian over, but she did not expect Jean to come.

So, she did not pay attention when she got into the car and accidentally sat on Jean's legs!
