Eventually, they began to laugh, but their faces were still streaked with tears, resulting in a comical expression.
Nathaniel comforted Sonny by patting his shoulder and explaining, “I was just too tired earlier. The S404 virus caused my heart and pulse to stop temporarily. But I could hear everything you said.”
“If you could hear me, then why didn’t you respond?” Sonny asked, frustrated. In anger, Sonny began to hit Nathaniel’s arm.
Nathaniel had ruined Sonny’s image. Nathaniel’s actions caused Sonny’s image to be tarnished.

Nathaniel winced and furrowed his brow in pain.
“I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have hit you,” Sonny apologized. Sonny hit his right hand with his left in frustration.
Supporting himself with his hands, Nathaniel sat up and requested, “Tell me about this inhibitor.”
After wiping his tears, Sonny turned to Lonnie.
Sniffing, Lonnie began to report in a serious tone.
“Dr. Yusuf was also shocked to learn that you accidentally contracted the $404 virus infection. Unfortunately, this inhibitor can’t cure the infection. It can only temporarily suppress the virus to prevent it from spreading further, allowing you to recover for a short time. The effect can last for a maximum of one week.”
“Only one week?”
In other words, Nathaniel could stay in Forden for a maximum of seven days.
“Boss, you have to go back for treatment this time. Dr. Yusuf has already started developing the antidote and he needs you to go back for a blood test. Don’t you want to stay with Miss Lucinda after you’ve recovered?” Sonny suggested.
Nathaniel pursed his lips tightly and fell into silence.
He couldn’t forget the promise he made to Lucinda, which was recorded on her phone. He had promised to disappear from her life one year later, so it wouldn’t be easy to stay with her forever.
He remembered the plan Lonnie had mentioned last time.

Lost in thought, Nathaniel suddenly felt someone pulling on his clothes.
Startled, he realized it was Sonny.
“What are you doing?” he asked.
“The medicine prescribed by the hospital won’t heal the wound on your back at all. Dr. Yusuf gave me an ointment that can treat S404 burns.
Let me apply it for you,” Sonny suggested.
Nathaniel knew Sonny was right.
Without hesitation, he removed his suit jacket and shirt, exposing his toned and muscular back.
In the middle of his back was a palm-sized burn.
