Chapter 237

Eder’s face was pale, as if he were the one who had been sentenced to death by a doctor, not someone else.

“So you mean, if the virus is not suppressed well, I could suddenly die one day?” he asked.

Dr. Mark lowered his head and didn’t answer.

It seemed like he tacitly agreed.

Eder fell into silence as well

He had thought that with the effects of the suppressant, his body would at least last for several more decades without any problems.

…that

If he had known it would be like this, he would rather not let Grace know that he was still alive, to spare her from experiencing the pain of his death again in the future.

In the heavy atmosphere of sadness, Eric couldn’t hold back and silently shed tears on the side.

Eder heard the sobbing and glanced at him, saying. “Why are you crying? I’m not dead yet.”

“I, I just feel…” Eric felt sorry for his boss.

At less than thirty years old, he had to endure pain and suffering from the illness every day, living in constant fear.

He was truly miserable!

Dr. Mark scratched his head, feeling a bit embarrassed. “Actually, it’s not that bad. I’m just saying that if, based on the current situation, as long as you cooperate with the treatment and maintain. good resistance, my suppressant can at least keep you alive for another twenty years!”

Eric looked mournful. “And what happens after those twenty years?”

Dr. Mark gave Eder a reassuring look and said, “After twenty years, who knows, maybe I’ll have already developed a cure by then, and you’ll live to be a hundred!”

At least there was still hope for a cure, and the atmosphere in the room gradually warmed up. Eric wiped his nose with a tissue and felt quite annoyed. “Doctor, can you please not talk like you’re running out of breath? You scared me!”

Dr. Mark chuckled and gave Eder another injection of the suppressant, strengthening the effect in his body. Then he prescribed medication to help with wound healing and to alleviate angina.

He reminded Eder to restrain his animalistic instincts and avoid engaging in vigorous activities until his injuries were healed.

Although Eder agreed verbally, his mind was elsewhere, and he didn’t pay much attention.

Coming out of the laboratory, it was almost time to finish work.

Eder was about to get into his car and go to Angle to pick up Grace when he saw Churls, dressed in a dark aviation uniform, walking towards him with a cold and gloomy expression. He was accompanied by his dainty wife, Laura.

It was evident that they had just arrived after getting off a plane, and their faces didn’t look good.

It seemed like they were here to pick a fight.

Eric politely greeted them, “Greetings, Sir, Ma’am.”

Laura nodded, while Chris’s gaze was sinister and he didn’t respond. He walked straight toward

Eder.

After all, he was his former brother-in-law, and it was necessary to maintain a good relationship. Eder concealed the surprise in his eyes and asked, “Chris, how come you have time to come back to 5 City?”

Stopping a meter away from him, Chris took out a pistol directly and aimed it at his head, exuding a menacing aura and murderous intent.

“Mr. Chris?!” Eric was dumbfounded.

Eder smirked, completely unfazed. With his hands casually inserted in his trouser pockets, he calmly met his gaze. “What do you mean, Chris?”

Chris’s killing intent surged as he said, “I want your life!”

Meanwhile, in Grace’s office at Angle Tower, she had been waiting for Eder to come and pick her up for dinner for five minutes, but he still hadn’t shown up. He was usually very punctual

Just as Grace was about to call him, she received a text message from Eric.

It read: Chris wants to kill me, at the lab.

Why did Chris suddenly come back?

Grace furrowed her brows, remembering that a few days ago, she had called Chris to inquire about Eder’s overseas travel records….

“This is bad!” She immediately grabbed her bag and quickly hailed a taxi to the laboratory.

Before she even got out of the car, through the window, she saw Chris pointing a gun at Eder’s head from a distance, his face filled with killing intent.

“Chris! What are you doing?” Grace held the gun with one hand, while the other hand protected Eder behind her. She smiled pleasingly and said, “Let’s talk nicely. What’s the point of brandishing knives and guns? Bullets don’t discriminate.”

Chris remained unmoved.

Laura also tried to persuade, “Husband, put the gun away. Be careful not to hurt your sister

Only then did Chris retract the gun, his face still cold.

Grace quickly turned around to check on Eder, asking, “Did my big brother beat you up? Are you hurt anywhere?”

Eder shook his head gently, holding her warm hand and smiling, “Except for you, how could I let anyone casually beat me up?”

Seeing that he still had time to make playful remarks, Grace breathed a sigh of relief.

Chris, observing their intimate behavior, furrowed his brow and his eyes filled with anger. “Grace! Do you know that he has been deceiving you, playing with your emotions?”

A few days ago, he had been puzzled as to why his sister suddenly took an interest in this flance of hers. After investigating further, he discovered that Eder was actually her ex-husband!

Grace retorted, “Chris, I already knew. It was all a misunderstanding before, and I don’t hold grudges.”

Chris’s tone turned icy, “You were deceived by him! Three years of youth can’t be easily compensated for. I will help you break off this engagement.”

“No, brother!”

Grace hugged his shoulder and said, “He has already made amends for what he did to me. Moreover, he saved me three times in Frant City. If it weren’t for him, I wouldn’t have returned to S City unharmed. Even Patrick was moved by him. So please don’t dwell on it.”

Chris stared at her in silence.

Not arguing meant that his heart was wavering. Taking advantage of this, she continued, “Besides, my engagement with him is a business alliance. It’s not easy to break. Please think twice, Chris!” “What are you afraid of? As long as you want it, even if it costs me three trillion, I can afford it.” Grace pouted and acted coquettish, her voice weak, “But, brother, I don’t want that. I want to be with him.”

Eder listened quietly, his gaze fixed on Grace, feeling a sweet sensation in his heart.

Chris fell silent.

Grace hugged his arm and continued to rub against him like a soft little cat. “Brother, I’m serious…” Chris looked at his wife, Laura, who smiled and nodded, also showing her approval

He let out a long sigh and reluctantly compromised, “Since you insist, I will observe him for a while longer. Until I give my approval, this engagement will be like your second brother’s, dragging on. You’re not allowed to secretly register your marriage or sleep with him. Otherwise, I will break your legs!”

Grace shivered all over, subconsciously swallowing her saliva.

Damn it, she had already done some unspeakable things….

What should she do? Can she still keep her legs intact?

Eder’s face also stiffened.

Grace didn’t respond. Chris looked back and forth between the two of them, especially at his little sister’s guilty expression, as if it was written on her face: “guilty conscience.”

“Have you already registered your marriage?”

Grace quickly shook her head, her head moving like a drumstick. “No, I wouldn’t dare!”

Chris’s expression grew even darker. “Then you’ve slept together?”

“Um… We did it once when we were previously married. Does that count?” She bit her lip and avoided eye contact..

“That time, you weren’t using your real identities, and you’re divorced now. It doesn’t count. I’m asking about this time.”

Grace fell silent.

She felt uneasy, hanging her head and staring at her toes, her ears turning red.

Chris instantly understood, and the rage in his eyes became even more terrifying, his whole body. exuding a murderous intent.

He pulled out the gun again and pointed it at Eder.

“How dare you sleep with her right after getting engaged? I’ll kill you!”
