Fifteen minutes later, Sonny rushed inside the ward.
He found Nathaniel sitting on the edge of the bed with tightly pursed lips, as though he was trying to endure the pain. Sonny hurriedly went up to help him, but unexpectedly found that Nathaniel’s skin was so cold to the touch.
“Sir, you look terrible,” he said worriedly.
“I’m fine.”
But the cold grimace on Nathaniel’s face gave him away.
He grunted, “Where’s Pierre?”
“When I found him, he claimed that he had seen the man who had instigated him to take out Miss Lucinda, but he wasn’t able to catch up with that man. I don’t have any evidence to prove his involvement in this, so I let him go back to the Bay Villa first. He’ll report to Miss Lucinda himself.”
After swallowing hard, Nathaniel said, “Keep an eye on Pierre. If anything unusual happens, tell me. And in the name of the NSB, ask the police to release Lucinda. If she wants to interrogate the man who tried to hurt her last night, ask them to cooperate with her.”
“Yes, sir.”
Nathaniel looked like he wanted to say something more, but his body started to tremble violently.
Sonny instantly realized that something was terribly wrong.
“Sir, the sulfuric acid should only have corroded your flesh. How could you be so weak?”
Nathaniel gritted his teeth and didn’t say anything.
Frowning, Sonny approached him, intending to lift his shirt to check on the wound.
Nathaniel snapped, “Don’t come near me. You’re crossing the line!”

“Sir, let me have a look at your wound. If you want to punish me later, then do it. I can’t rest easy until I see your wound with my own eyes!”
Seeing the fierce determination in Sonny’s face, Nathaniel then sighed.
“It’s not sulfuric acid. I think it’s S404.”
“What?!”
Suddenly, all the color drained from Sonny’s face.
$404 was a newly developed biochemical weapon in the War Lab. It not only burned through skin, but also affected the victim’s internal organs, causing them to shut down. However, the technology was not mature enough, and there was no way to cure it at present, so the damage it caused on the human body was irreversible.
Sonny’s eyes turned red. He couldn’t believe what he just heard.
“How come… How could this be? It’s banned from the market, and there are only a dozen samples in the military. No one can just—”
He suddenly stopped, and he realized something. He looked at Nathaniel in shock.
