Alaric Wood searched everywhere for Aurelia Shaw but couldn't find her. Someone told him she was in the lab taking care of some patient.
Alaric's interest was piqued.
...
In the prison of the laboratory, the doctor was cleaning a man's wounds while Aurelia stood to the side, head lowered, watching.
The doctor's face was full of black lines; he was even cursing "MMP" in his heart. He'd originally thought he could flatter Dr. Xiao a bit and win Dr. Xiao's favor.
Who knew he'd end up with such a thankless job.
The doctor regretted it so much his guts were turning green.
Yet when his peripheral vision swept over the woman standing beside him, the doctor shuddered and didn't dare refuse.
The woman in front of him looked so bland on the surface, and clearly didn't seem lethal, but for some reason, the moment he saw her he felt afraid.
A bone-deep, hair-raising chill in his heart.
