Chapter 529

“D-Dr. Rocke?”

“N-No! I-It's not my fault—"

Roxanne was no longer her calm and collected self as she was overwhelmed by the thought of

Sebastian leaving her.

In the end, she made up her mind to deny her responsibilities and started removing the equipment

attached to Sabrina, fleeing as soon as she had everything removed.

The nurse was rendered speechless by her supervisor's response. Things were chaotic for those

affiliated with the laboratory as they were afraid of the things awaiting them.

Half an hour later, Sebastian and Sasha, who were made aware of the incident, rushed to the scene.

Sebastian was the first to reach his sister's side. He started throwing a tantrum in the laboratory and

yelled, “Where the hell is Roxanne? Get her over here at once!”

Intimidated by the man’s presence, the nurse stuttered, “D-Dr. Rocke has made her way home, Mr.

Hayes. I-It wasn't her fault either since we were still in the middle of a trial-and-error session. There's

a huge risk associated with the newly developed antidote.”

“Is that the reason she has brought upon my sister's demise?”

Sasha knew the nurse was about to burst into tears in front of Sebastian. Thus, she rushed over to

her husband's side to stop him.

“Darling, we need to remain calm in times of emergencies since we can't do anything to revive the

dead. Don't you think we need to send Sabrina to the hospital?”

Glaring her in the eyes, her husband repeated after her, “Send her to the hospital?”

Sasha felt a chill running down her spine since she had never witnessed the intimidating side of

Sebastian.

Standing in front of her husband, she stuttered, “S-Since she has passed on, isn't it time to send her

to the hospital for an autopsy? I-If you wish to hold Roxanne accountable, we need to get the

doctors to run some tests on her.”

Get the doctors to conduct an autopsy to testify against Roxanne?

Sebastian couldn't believe his ears and almost went berserk in front of his wife. He clenched his fists

and forced himself to calm down.

In the end, he announced with his eyes closed, “Alright, leave me alone for the time being. I need

some time to gather my thoughts.”

"Alright, Darling. You need to stay strong as well.”

Sasha departed seconds after she finished her sentence.

Wendy found out Sasha was no longer in a foul mood as Sasha asked in a sprightly tone the

moment she returned, “Wendy, are the children back yet?”

“Lance has just mentioned he’s going to make his way over to pick them up in a few minutes.”

“Can you get in touch with him and tell him I'll be heading over to pick them up?” Sasha, who was in

a great mood, volunteered herself and made her way out once again.

In the evening, Sebastian stood still in the office of First Hospital's director looking out of the

window into the brightly lit city.

Karl showed up and announced the moment he saw Sebastian, “Mr. Hayes, Mr. Jadeson told us he

had affirmed the complications after the consumption of medicines to be the reason behind the

demise of Mr. Hayes Sr.”

"What do you mean?”

“Mr. Jadeson told us the doctor mentioned it wouldn't cause arterial stiffening even if Mr. Hayes Sr.

had consumed more than the usual dosage. In other words, someone must have swapped the

prescribed medicine with something else.”

After pausing for a few seconds, he shared the rest of the findings with Sebastian. “On top of that,

the doctors were startled by the fact they had gotten their hands on a toxin that was unknown.”

Karl showed Sebastian the report he had retrieved from the representative from Jadeborough.

Upon a simple glimpse, Sebastian realized he could barely understand the terms included in the

report.

Nonetheless, as an intelligent and observant man, he noticed a few familiar chemical equations

“Phantasia.”

“Phantasia?” repeated the confused Karl after Sebastian.

Sebastian showed him the chemical equation on the report and stated, “When Roxanne carried out

a series of tests with Sabrina’s blood sample, she found something called Phantasia in Sabrina's

system.”

Karl's eyes widened in disbelief as he finally recalled it was the latest drug invented by those

affiliated with the black market.

What the heck? What's wrong with them? Why are they coming after the Hayes with such brutal

means?

It was the first time Karl felt such a strong urge to take those imbecile fools out to avenge Sebastian.

Sebastian continued, “Roxanne told me it could easily get someone hyped up for no apparent

reason. Youngsters tend to end up losing their minds. That's precisely the case for Sabrina.”

“If that's the case, Mr. Hayes Sr. has—"

Karl started shivering in fear with his eyes brimming with tears. He just couldn't bring himself to

finish his sentence.

Similarly, Sebastian remained silent and gazed at the night with his face puckered in a deathly stare.

A strong murderous intent was written all over his face. It felt as though he was up to something to

avenge his father and his sister.
