Georgia’s warning came out hasty, and she regretted it after she spoke up.

She knew that Jason was just joking around, and even if things got real, it wouldn’t be serious at all.

But she was afraid of the one-in-a-million chance that something went wrong.

Ivan and Jason both showed a confused look. They exchanged a befuddled look, but Jason smoothed things over.

“Since you’re saying all that, Georgia, then I’ll let you off this time, Robert my guy. I’m telling you, that’s for Georgia. If you lie to your brothers like this again and go face danger alone, I’ll really turn on you.”

Robert hurriedly apologized.

“It’s my fault. I’m sorry.”

Annie hadn’t seen Elsie for the full night. She took Elsie’s hand and dragged her to the park to play on the swing.

Without the presence of a child in the house, Ivan turned to Georgia and Robert.

“Starting from yesterday, I’ve been feeling like something’s wrong between you two, but Georgia had a fever last night, and Robert was taking care of her by the side all the while, so I couldn’t ask about it. But it’s even stranger today, talking about some full body check. Tell me the truth, you two – what’s happened?”

Jason chimed in curiously as well.

“Are there unresolved issues, Robert? If there’s new trouble, don’t worry, just tell me how I can help.”

Robert sighed helplessly, and Georgia’s expression was sorrowful as she answered Ivan.

“Yesterday, I went with Robert to see Sierra. She’s still being held in the dungeon. Ivan, you know about this too. She revealed to me that Robert’s been kept in a lab over the past year for a period of time, where they performed human experiments on him. This is too serious. I have to have Robert go through a full checkup, to see if there’s any lingering symptoms from the experiments. If we can fix it early on, that’d be fine. I’m just worried if anything unexpected happens.”

At that, both Jason and Ivan’s expressions went slack with horror.

“Whoever the rat bastard is who shut you in that lab, I’m going to skin him alive!”
