Chapter 766
Jimmy was one of Andy's invitees as Andy knew and trusted him. After all, Genome Society was the one who created Jimmy's genome-enhanced self.
However, Michael was actually an invitee of that mixed-descent leader. It was out of my expectations. He had become smarter now.
The door to the lab capsule opened up, and Sarah's men gestured for us to enter.Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
Steven, Joel, and I felt as if we were monkeys trapped in a laboratory. We were on display for everyone to observe us.
Michael's gaze wavered when he saw us, yet he could only pretend to be indifferent in order not to expose himself. "If only you had listened to me and followed me, you wouldn't have gotten stuck here now, Stephanie."
I coldly looked at him, ignoring him.
"I've always admired you for discovering a way to reincarnate humans, Steven. I was this close to ending my life back when Stephie's body was found. I never imagined you could bring her back. I have to thank you for it," Michael said with a smile as he stood behind the glass hatch.
Sarah and Andy did not trust him at all. Their men had been keeping their eyes on him all this while.
Michael coldly glanced over at them before turning to leave.
Now that Sarah had a new body, she was very satisfied with her appearance. She smiled and said to Steven, "Thank you for giving me a youthful body."
He ignored her.
"You should give it some thought, Steven. You're still valuable as long as we haven't found the experiment data, but once we do, all of you will lose your worth," Sarah threatened with a smile.
"You're such a pitiful person. You would've died if it weren't for Steven, but you're still shamelessly threatening us," I mocked before glancing at her pitifully.
Sarah seemingly couldn't stand others looking at her like that. She started banging her fists on the hatch repeatedly.
I continued to provoke her, "You're totally devoted to Andy, but he's so heartless to you, Sarah."
Sarah clenched her fists before smiling. "You don't need to provoke me, Stephanie. Love isn't the only thing that keeps me going in life. Aren't you all moved by supreme power and immense wealth?"
Steven looked away indifferently, completely ignoring her.
Sarah gently placed her fingers on the glass hatch. "Actually, I really like you, Steven. I feel bad for you too. If you're willing to just listen to me, I can bring you to a greater height or even-"
She was suggesting that she could help him replace Andy's position, yet she did not continue the rest of her sentence.
Steven remained uninterested. Sarah didn't say more and walked away.
I sat by the side, looking at Joel. Joel shrugged at me and said, "We'd better pray that they can't find the key to reincarnation. Otherwise, we'll all end up as fish food tossed into the ocean."
Steven was silent, as if he was waiting for something.
I trusted him. Surely, he would be able to find ways for us to leave.
Andy brought those people for a tour around the headquarters of Genome Society. By the time they were back, Michael gave Steven a meaningful look.
It seemed like he was able to persuade the mixed-descent leader to abduct Steven, Joel and me.
We were equivalent to immense wealth and power to these people-everyone wanted to get their hands on us.
