"Where's Barry? Why don't you go find him? Your relationship with him is also pretty good," Chris asked.
"Don't want to go, no need to bother him." Wesker was actually a bit afraid to face him. His relationship with Barry was indeed good; he was a rare friend. He wouldn't have the audacity to seek him out again after betraying a friend like that.
The two chatted idly, munching on peanuts and potato chips.
After this incident, Wesker had a change of heart. It was one thing if he didn't know about Jack, but now that he did, he had to survive.
It doesn't matter if his wife ran off; for life to be good, there must be a little green on his head.
"The Western Federation's overseas military base in Vadoren was attacked. Do you know about this?" Wesker put down his wine glass, his crimson eyes fixed on his old friend.
Chris didn't care. "No, and I'm not interested. The Western Federation has offended too many people, and the higher-ups are all doing biological experiments. What's there to say?"
Apparently, Chris knew about the so-called Longevity Project. Knowing was one thing, but he no longer held any hope, which was why he chose not to return to the BSAA.
The higher-ups were already corrupt, and the Western Federation's infiltration of the BSAA was very successful. Although the soldiers below were still excellent, they couldn't overcome the fact that those above them were fools and donkeys.
"That's right, Simmons's family was indeed conducting inhumane experiments. Now Simmons is finished; he will definitely be expelled from the family. The Pupa Virus was developed by him personally," Wesker revealed some hidden secrets.
"And then? So what?" Chris remained unmoved.
"Simmons was one of the culprits behind the destruction of Raccoon City. Another was Senator David. Don't you want revenge? And Kevin's disappearance—Kevin was framed by Kaplan using his authority. The drone bombing at the time was orchestrated by him, using the tracker embedded in Kevin's flesh!" Wesker continued to spill secrets.
Chris still didn't react. "I know. I've met Kevin and talked to him. He wants revenge, and I didn't stop him."
"You really are a salted fish!" Wesker was a bit angry.
"Thank you. As long as a person lives well, nothing else matters," Chris said, finishing his drink and collapsing to sleep.
Leaving Vadoren, Eddie returned to Goddess Island, while Carla remained in the Mediterranean headquarters building. She was reviewing the latest investment project results. Having rarely come out, Carla didn't want to go back so soon, unless she was pregnant.
On Goddess Island, Agent Kathy, heavily pregnant, was waiting for her husband in the teleportation area. She was on maternity leave from the BSAA, with no fixed end date for her vacation.
Eddie returned to the island with Jessica, passing through the electromagnetic field teleportation. Seeing Kathy, seven months pregnant and wearing high heels, waiting for him, a surge of vanity rose in his heart.
See what a winner in life looks like? A winner in life has a beautiful wife waiting for him at home.
"Honey, you're back? You must be tired," Kathy smiled gently and obediently. She never dreamed she would be pregnant one day.
"Mm, did the little one kick you today?" Eddie chuckled.
Kathy gently stroked her belly. "Yes, the little one is very playful. Honey, what name do you think we should give our future daughter?"
With advanced medical facilities, Kathy knew she was carrying a daughter very early on. She had her doubts, but quickly dismissed them; everyone else was having daughters, so her having one wasn't any different.
"Whatever you like. If you can't think of anything, then I'll think of it. I think if you name the little one, it will definitely have a special meaning," Eddie explained.
Kathy covered her mouth and giggled. "Honey, are you being lazy? Alright, I'll think of it. Let's go eat, it's just in time for dinner."
Lunch was prepared by Monica. This somewhat greedy beauty had become very gentle now. Although she still showed signs of being a money-grubber, Eddie wasn't annoyed; instead, he found it somewhat cute.
Everyone likes money; it's a good thing.
Monica had already given birth to four children. Compared to Jill and Alexia, she didn't choose contraception; as long as she had a child, she would give birth.
Maria, who had been rescued from South America, was lazily yawning. She was six months pregnant, one month less than Kathy.
"Wife, Diago is still alive; Arias saved him," Eddie said, sitting at the dining table.
"I know. I also have to thank you, my son-in-law, for providing the virus. Life and death are fated; there's no need to force it. Father actually thought death was the best destination. If he could start over, he'd rather be a corn farmer." Maria's tone was calm. She knew all the truth and saw things very clearly, feeling only gratitude and admiration for her husband.

"I can't help them with anything else. Life and death, wealth and honor, are all up to fate. Let's eat," Eddie chuckled. He had indeed saved Diago and given Arias a little help.
Why should he deal with Simmons himself? These villains would naturally clear the way for him.
Maria smiled. She knew her husband's difficulties; it was already very good that she, a drug lord's daughter, could survive. Revenge? Her husband would handle it.
If her husband found it inconvenient, she would train her daughter to do it.
After eating, it was back to writing code—bah, I misspoke. It was to chat with Alexia and Alex.
The wives' routines were very regular: sleeping until they woke up naturally during the day, flexible working hours, and clocking off promptly at 5 PM.
With Monica and Marguerite at home to clean, they didn't need to put in much effort and lived a carefree life.
Click, Alex lit a cigarette, her delicate feet swinging in high heels as she looked at the screen. "The AI has been created. It will continue to grow and one day will be smarter than us."
"Are you scared?" Eddie held her on the sofa, puffing smoke.
"What am I scared of? If there's a problem, won't you solve it? Do you have a good solution?" Alex hooked a playful smile. It was so good to have a husband; she could just throw out any problem she couldn't handle.
A thought flashed through Eddie's mind. "I know how to solve it. Just leave it to me. Has the spaceship's power been resolved? We'll need a lot of endurance for such a long voyage. Food, energy, and so on."
Alexia also leaned against the man, smoking. The queen's smoking posture was very elegant. "I'll handle that. Endurance is easy to solve. Ashley and Kathy, whom you brought last time, are very good at designing clean energy. It's enough for us to live for hundreds of years."
"It seems all problems are solved. Are we ready for takeoff?" Eddie turned and asked, looking at Alexia's exquisite and pretty face. Even after many years of marriage, he still found her stunning.
Alexia seemed to sense something and chuckled. "What are you looking at, you dummy! Haven't you looked enough after all these years?"
She said that, but Alexia was beaming. What woman doesn't want her husband to always dote on her?
"We're preparing for a test flight soon, but it won't be that fast. It should still take another year or two. Are you in such a hurry?" Alex continued. As an older sister-type woman, she never thought she would marry a man younger than her.
"Don't put yourselves in danger; there's no need for that," Eddie reminded her.
Pfft! Alex was also amused. "Are you worried about us?"
Eddie rolled his eyes. "You're my wife. Who else would I care about if not you? Remember, don't go on adventures yourselves; there's no need!"
Alex's heart warmed, and she smiled, "I know, I won't take risks. I'll use cloning methods to go up and conduct tests. I don't want to risk it either; if I die, wouldn't you be heartbroken?"
"Bah, what nonsense are you talking about! Don't say such disheartening things in the future; it's not good," Eddie's expression became very serious. He didn't like hearing such words.
Alex wasn't scared at all. She gently stroked her husband's hair. "Silly, I was just joking. Alright, don't be angry. Big Sister will give you a candy, be good, don't be angry."
This was the benefit of marrying an older, mature woman: she knew how to coax people.
Eddie was amused. "I don't care. You'll see what's coming tonight."
Alex blinked her beautiful eyes. "That's perfect, I was just about to take a break! Come if you dare, I'm not afraid of you."
Eddie raised his eyebrows, hoisted Alex onto his shoulder, and walked into the room.
Three days later, Tall Oaks in the Western Federation.
The Western Federation's supreme leader, Adam Benford, was preparing to give a speech here. Before that, the Presidential Guard had already eliminated any threats from the nearby university.
