Chapter 388 From Now On, I'll Serve You Like This

Aletta had nodded and pressed the intercom button, calling for Annie to come over.

Annie arrived shortly after.

Aletta had instructed, "Take him for a physical examination, and I've written down the specific tests on the list!"

Annie nodded and said, "Alright, Mr. Rogers, please follow me."

Walt nodded, stood up, and left with Annie.

Just as they left, Aletta's phone rang.

She glanced at it and saw that it was Lewis calling. She quickly answered, "Lewis, what's the matter?"

Lewis's serious voice came through from the other end, "Your test results have shown significant changes, and it's very obvious. The intense pain you felt in your heart earlier is probably not a good sign. The medication. inside your body is accelerating the deterioration."

Aletta had anticipated this in her heart, and her mood slightly darkened.

She said to Lewis, "Lewis, I've found out some things on my end and have a general idea of who is behind this."

Lewis's tone became serious as he asked, "Who is it?"

"It's... mentor Albert."

There were a few seconds of silence on the phone, and Lewis thought he must have misheard. Unable to believe it, he cautiously asked, "Are you sure? How could it be him?"

Aletta nodded and analyzed in detail, "Before, when we were abroad, you mentioned that the medication has a six-month incubation period. But now it's suddenly accelerating. And a few days ago, I saw mentor Albert at your place..."

"How is it such a coincidence? He suddenly showed up! If it was just to notify us of a meeting, a phone call or an email would have sufficed. He has our contact information, but he personally made the trip... So, I think the so-called academic exchange meeting might just be a cover-up."

Aletta didn't mention the mentor's involvement in the incident where the child was taken away.

But what she had revealed so far was shocking enough for Lewis.

He found it hard to believe and continued to say, "But I remember, at that time, he didn't have much contact with you. How could he target you?"
