“Regardless of what happened, have I not treated you well, Barney? When you were preparing for the International Medical Association, I always gave you what you asked for. Please just let me off this time.”

All Keegan could do now was plead.

When he noticed the sort of people Sophie brought with her, Keegan then realized exactly how much he had underestimated her.

That was why he could not be stubborn this time around.

After all, a real man could either submit or stand proud when the situation called for it.

Arius scoffed. “Were you kind to Dr. Smith? You were basically using him as a ladder to climb to greater heights!”

If Keegan had not held Dr. Smith’s parents captive, then why on earth did we have to come all the way here? I guess it’s also for the best. If Dr. Smith had shown up alone, I wonder what horrible things they would’ve done to him!

Keegan’s expression changed.

“Barney, I think you’re well aware that there are things I’ve had to do outside of my own volition. Think of the position I’m in!”

Barney shook his head.

“Forget it. When we leave, you can come back. Mr. Hunt, I hope that we never meet again in this life. If something like this ever happens again, I won’t be so cordial.”

Regardless, Barney was someone who studied medicine.

He was not someone who enjoyed killing.

He liked saving people and not committing murder.

Arius was worried because Sophie had hurled Keegan at Butterfly.

He absentmindedly felt about his pockets for a syringe and injected Keegan with an unknown drug.

“Arius, what the hell are you doing? What did you inject me with?” yelled Keegan. Arius was a former member of the International Medical Association. As such, Keegan was concerned that the substance used on him could have completely ruined him.

“Relax! Since Dr. Smith has already spoken, we won’t make things hard for you. We just want you to be still, that’s all,” replied Arius smoothly.

All they wanted was to leave the area safely without lingering for much longer.
