Without uttering a word, Lucinda stared at the dying young man inside the cell. Her heart ached so intensely that breathing became a struggle. She dug her nails into her palms, trying to contain her anger.
Kyson went on, “You can keep the baby, but you need to stay home these days. You can’t cause any disruption on our wedding day. Once we’re married, I’ll release Sonny and send him back to Cadiered with the serum. I’m being sincere this time.”
She pressed her lips together.
Trading her own happiness for the safety of her baby, Sonny, and the super virus serum seemed like a fair deal.
She had no choice but to accept it.
“Alright, but you mustn’t torture Sonny. As a sign of my sincerity…”
Lucinda paused, removed the emerald ring from her finger, and gave it to Kyson.
This ring was the only means of self-protection she had. And now she was willing to surrender it. Her gesture spoke volumes about her sincerity.

Kyson’s face lit up with happiness.
“I won’t harm him anymore. I’ll have a doctor come to treat him today and ensure he’s taken care of.
Are you pleased with this?”
“You’d better keep to your word.”
“I will.” He smiled and checked the temperature of the hand warmer thoughtfully.
“Let’s go. It’s too cold here. Considering your pregnancy, it’s not suitable for you to stay in this place.”
Lucinda remained silent. She glanced back at Sonny with concern, turned away, and left.
Once they were gone, Sonny was finally released.
He collapsed onto the floor and woke up with excruciating pain. His shoulders were dislocated, and he was weak.
Struggling to sit up, he soon lost all strength and fell into a semi-conscious state.
“Sir, are you alright?”
“Are you still alive?”
“If you can hear me, please respond.”
“Hey !”
A worried voice came from the next cell. It was a girl, and she was speaking his language.
Sonny was roused by her voice, and he let out a low grunt as a reply.
