ordinary person.” Winnie shot Josiah a determined look and said, “Trust me, okay? I’ll get it settled.”Josiah was stunned by the look Winnie had on her face. Her bright eyes look exactly like Dumbo’s! However, I’ve never seen this confidence and determination in Dumbo’s eyes before. These two identities are so different from each other. Yet, she pulled them off flawlessly.Josiah couldn’t help but glance at Winnie again. “I’ve underestimated you in the past. I’ve misjudged you.”While they were both walking toward the lab, Xavier suddenly opened his eyes.After taking the samples of the venom from the lab, Winnie made a call on her phone.She used at least three languages when she was on the phone. In the end, she managed to get the matter settled.Josiah was also an expert in languages. In fact, he knew a few foreign languages himself. He understood what Winnie said on the phone. “How did it go? Is everything okay?”“Yes!” Winnie kept her phone. “However, I don’t think it’s wise to ship something like this out of the country. It seems like I’ll have to go back to Yartran personally in the next couple of days.”Josiah noticed the words she used. “Did you say go back?

Did Xavier wake up and escape? His suit in the closet has also gone missing. Did he get changed on his own? He really doesn’t seem like he’s out of his mind!Winnie called Josiah immediately, and they both went to the control room to check the surveillance footage.Upon checking the surveillance footage, they saw Xavier leaving the ward in his suit soon after they left for the lab. After that, he got into the elevator.Winnie stared at the surveillance footage and saw Xavier pressing the eighth-floor button in the elevator.She frowned and turned toward Josiah. “Why did he go to the eighth floor? What’s on the eighth floor?”“Nothing’s there!” Josiah was puzzled. “However, my office is on the eighth floor.”“Are you saying that he went to your office? Why did he go to your office? He doesn’t remember you, no?”“I have no idea.” Josiah then turned toward the security guard and ordered, “Quick! Switch the channel to the surveillance footage on the eighth floor.”The security guard played
