"Let's go. Isn't there an evening party to attend?" Jade's demeanor was cold.Lloyd blinked, breaking out of his trance, and nodded expressionlessly as he walked ahead.Jade followed, with numerous bodyguards trailing behind her.Exiting the cabin, they stepped onto the deck. The darkness and sea breeze enveloped them, and there was no sign of any party.Just as Jade felt puzzled, the sound of helicopter blades reverberated overhead, and a helicopter slowly descended onto the deck.Lloyd led the way, Jade close behind. The strong night wind caused her skirt to flutter, and she had to hold it tightly with one hand to prevent it from blowing up as she struggled to climb into the helicopter."Grab my hand," Lloyd said, reaching out to her with an affectionate look.Jade glanced at him, ignored the gesture, and grabbed the railing to climb into the helicopter herself.Her indifference and disdain were evident.Lloyd felt a sense of loss and awkwardly withdrew his hand, turning to

Edan seemed to understand human speech as it looked at Lloyd in displeasure and roared.Lloyd stepped back in fear, panicking, while Jade patted Edan's cheek to calm it down.Edan appeared to understand her command and obediently sat down."Do you have pliers?" Jade asked, looking around.No one answered her question, as the situation was simply too strange.Jade exhaled deeply and told Julian, "There's a bone fragment stuck in its teeth, already piercing its flesh. If it's not removed, it can cause inflammation, which is why it's been so agitated lately."Julian narrowed his eyes and asked the maid beside him, "When did Edan have bones these past few days?""Edan stole a deer leg two days ago, and that's when it started getting grumpy," the maid replied honestly.Julian nodded, believing Jade's words, and asked someone to fetch the pliers for her.Jade took them and slowly extracted the bone fragment from Edan's teeth."There!" Jade exclaimed, tossing the bone fragment onto

"The defense here is like a fortress. There are many places I'm not allowed to go. See those soldiers?" Julian pointed to the soldiers patrolling in the distance and told Jade, "They're all mercenaries, very skilled. If there's an invasion, the enemy will die here."Mercenaries? Jade's heart dropped. Was Best of Both, along with Lloyd, also eyeing those viruses? If so, that would be disastrous. Once the virus spread, the situation would spiral out of control, and Best of Both would exploit the chaos for profit."Can you help me leave here?" Jade asked, aware of the risk but desperate enough to take a chance.Julian stared at her blankly for a moment, then blinked and asked, "Aren't you Lloyd's girlfriend? Why do you want me to help you leave?"'So he isn't clueless.' Jade forced a smile. "We had a fight. I don't want to be with him anymore. I want to break up. Can you help me?""I see." Julian tilted his head, thinking, and then gave an evil smile. "I find Lloyd annoying. You two

Julian's specific request for Jade immediately made Lloyd nervous. "Jade isn't a vet. If Edan isn't feeling well, we should find a veterinarian.""I'll find whoever I want. Mind your own business," Julian retorted impatiently. "Are you trying to lecture me?""No, no, I'm just worried about Edan. I'm afraid Jade's medical skills might not be sufficient. It's best not to delay proper treatment," Lloyd hastily explained.Julian rolled his eyes at Lloyd before turning to Immanuel with a smile. "Immanuel, can Jade stay on the island for a few more days? Edan likes her. He didn't even bite her and let her touch him earlier."Immanuel looked surprised. "Really? Edan sometimes doesn't even acknowledge me. I didn't expect him to be so friendly with her.""Yeah, not only that, but Edan's mood also seemed better today. Can you let Jade stay here for a few days, please?" Julian asked Immanuel, his eyes pleading.Immanuel reluctantly turned to Lloyd. "It's rare for Julian to like someone so m

Julian tossed the clothes to Jade, who subconsciously caught them and looked at them in horror—pink bunny pajamas......For the next few days, Jade immersed herself in the laboratory, focused on developing the enhanced HIV strain. The virus was now 70% complete, needing only her finishing touches.Ten days later, in the laboratory."Done!" Jade gasped softly, having successfully developed the enhanced HIV strain.Lloyd rushed over, his eyes lighting up. "It's a success! I've finally developed the enhanced HIV strain. This is great!"A cunning glint flashed in Jade's eyes as she calmly replied, "Congratulations.""Congratulations to both of us." Lloyd excitedly moved to hug Jade, but she avoided him. Standing there awkwardly, he looked at Jade with a grim expression. "What, haven't you given up yet? Let me tell you, you'll never return to Centus. You won't be able to."A sense of foreboding washed over Jade as she asked, "What do you mean?""Because you, as a person, have di
