Chapter 517: Chapter 517

Serena lowered her eyes, pushed open the door, and walked out.

Hearing footsteps, Damian Quinn and Winston Winslow exchanged a glance and tactfully stopped their conversation.

"Baby, you’re awake. Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere?"

Damian Quinn took a big step forward, supporting the girl. At the sight of her, the previous hostility in his eyes subsided, restoring his usual gentleness.

Winston Winslow also looked at her lovingly, but deep down in his eyes, there was a deep sorrow. "It’s good you’re awake, Serena. If you’re feeling unwell, you must tell us!"

Seeing Winston Winslow’s dispirited and exhausted look, yet still holding on, Serena felt a pang in her heart.

Her master’s condition was worsening, yet he was still trying hard to treat her...

"Yes, Master, it’s getting late; you should rest early."

Unable to conceal the fatigue on his face, Winston Winslow nodded, "Alright."

After sending Winston Winslow away, Serena’s gaze landed on the man.

"I heard what you and Master just discussed."

Serena looked at him with her stunningly beautiful fox-like eyes, her expression serious.

"Don’t even think about doing something dangerous without telling me!"

The man gently brushed his rough fingertip across her cheek, gazing at her with deep affection, but he did not agree to her request.

"Baby, you don’t have to worry about me."

Not receiving his promise, Serena’s unease deepened further. She frowned and repeated, "Promise me."

Seeing the girl’s persistent look, Damian Quinn’s cold brow revealed a hint of helplessness. He lowered his voice, comforting her.

"Alright, I promise I won’t act without telling you."

He only promised the young girl not to act without telling her; he did not promise anything else.

Seeing him agree, Serena’s tense face finally eased a little.

Damian Quinn gently brushed aside the stray hair on her forehead, "Serena, there’s something else I need to tell you."

"Before my father passed away, he conducted a secret research project at an S-level confidentiality, which even I knew nothing about until it was sealed after his death."

Upon mentioning Nyx, an intense murderous intent flashed in the man’s eyes.

"I only learned from Nyx today that my father was also injected with the X Potion, suffering from its side effects. So, I suspect that the secret research my father conducted was actually the antidote for the X Potion’s side effects!

Therefore, perhaps restarting my father’s experiment could yield some results. I’ve already sent Helios back to Imperia to start the process."

He must be fully prepared, restarting the experiment sealed after his father’s death, and he couldn’t let go of the situation with Nyx either. He had to obtain the antidote for the X Potion before three months, ensuring the young girl would not succumb to organ failure and death!

Serena nodded, speaking unhurriedly, "I also need to return to Imperia; otherwise, my parents and brother would be very worried. Moreover, if that research is truly related to the antidote for the X Potion, my presence will expedite the progress."

Seeing the young girl’s confident demeanor, the man curved his thin lips and dotingly agreed, "Alright."

"But before returning to Imperia, we need to completely cure Master’s illness. His condition is worsening and can’t be delayed any longer!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Lucas Laine pushed the door open and walked in, speaking gently. Read full story at ⓝovelFire.net

"Serena, don’t worry. The First Elder and others have already prepared a prescription for Master. As long as he takes it on time and recuperates well, he will recover. However, we’re missing one ingredient—the Red Blood Herb."

At these words, Serena slightly furrowed her eyebrows.

The Red Blood Herb is exceedingly rare, priceless, and finding it will take considerable time... but they can’t let Master’s body continue to deteriorate!

Moreover, if Master doesn’t recover, she won’t be at ease returning to Imperia.

Seeing her worried and anxious, Lucas Laine spoke again, "However, it’s heard that the Red Blood Herb is the finale item at the Nigh Auction."

Serena’s eyes lit up slightly, "Alright, I’ll go to the Nigh Auction tomorrow."

The Red Blood Herb is a must-have for her!

Damian Quinn tenderly touched the young girl’s thinner chin, "I can handle it; you should stay and recuperate."

Serena pursed her red lips, "You’re treating me as too fragile; I’m fine."

"I know my little one is very capable, but Master doesn’t particularly like me."

The man looked down at her, his gaze soft and affectionate, an enticing blend of allure.

"Darling, can you give me a chance to prove myself, please?"
