Once Cedrick had fallen asleep, Gwendolyn carefully settled him on the bed and covered him with a blanket. Once that was done, she quietly left the room to meet with Joshua.

“Since the lab has already obtained this blue serum, is it possible to replicate something similar or develop an antidote based on the serum’s components, Prof. Mallory?” she asked.

With a serious expression, Joshua thought about it for a while before shaking his head. “The laboratory doesn’t have any data on the components of the serum. Additionally, I don’t think it’s from Chanaea. I have checked.”

He paused before continuing, “The $404 RNA virus can’t be treated with an ordinary antidote. If Charles can obtain an effective antidote, it’s definitely not from our country. Most importantly, it involves the core technology.”

It was only his speculation since he didn’t see the serum with his own eyes.

Gwendolyn contemplated her next move. I’ll observe how Cedrick reacts to the blue serum first. I’ll consider handling Charles sometime later.

Cedrick slept for a day and a night.

When he woke up again, Joshua immediately examined the former’s body.

Cedrick cooperated with Joshua, though his expression was icy, and he didn’t even glance at Gwendolyn.

His body absorbed the serum well. His atrophy and chest pain had vanished completely. Furthermore, the spread of the virus had decreased significantly compared to before.

Everyone was delighted, except for Cedrick.

Just as Gwendolyn prepared to hold him after they returned to Harrick Villa, he dodged her and uttered, “No need. My body has recovered. I don’t need someone else to assist me.”

She watched his towering figure enter the villa alone, stunned.

Quietly, Nico approached her and comforted, “Don’t worry, Ms. Gwendolyn. That’s just how he is. No one ever dares to force him to do anything. What happened wasn’t a minor issue, so he’s still hung up on it. He’ll be fine after a few days.”

“I know.” Gwendolyn entered the villa quietly.

Meanwhile, Cedrick went straight upstairs and shut the door to his room without uttering another word to her.
