“Even Aldric couldn’t find a cure for me. How could Kyson possibly know anything about the virus? Moreover, he’s not the type to bear losses. Does he want something from you in return?”
Lucinda was astounded and heaved a deep breath.
He was truly a clever man. He asked the right questions, which she didn’t have answers to.
Nathan’s frown deepened as Lucinda remained silent.
“Lucinda?” he called out.
Snapping back to reality, Lucinda said seriously, “He’s hiding something. I always have this feeling that things aren’t so simple.

Tonight, I sent the medicine he gave me to the lab for testing.
Aldric said it’s actually effective. So Kyson might really know a way to cure you.”
“Since he gave you the medicine, what did he ask for in return?”
Nathan questioned skeptically.
“He wants me to bail him out and set him free,” Lucinda replied.
Nathan didn’t buy it.
“Is that all?” he pressed.
“Yes, but I don’t know what he’s really planning. However, he’s on his own without the Shaw family to back him up now. I doubt he can cause us any trouble.”
Clenching her fists, Lucinda swiftly changed the subject, urging.
“It’s late. Let’s go to bed. We can discuss this further tomorrow.”
With a serious expression, Nathan remained undistracted.

“How would I know why he asked for just that? Maybe he has other plans, but he hasn’t revealed them to me yet.”
She couldn’t disclose the two other conditions Kyson had set.
Because Nathan would undoubtedly refuse to take the antidote if he knew.
She needed to figure out how to handle Kyson, gather useful information from him, and get the antidote herself.
When Lucinda saw that Nathan wasn’t ready to give up questioning, she slowly rubbed her shoulders and said tiredly, “I’m so exhausted after working the entire day. Please, no more questions for now. Let’s discuss it later. I’m going to bed.”
