Milly’s eyes flickered, her long eyelashes concealing the emotions in her gaze.

After a moment, her voice, ethereal and stubborn, broke the silence, “He is not an experiment, he has a name. His name is Apollo. He is my brother…

Apollo, representing the sun.

The last name he bore was not the Burnetts‘ but hers, Milly’s.

Apollo in the cage couldn’t understand her words. He looked at her warily, instinctively wanting to attack.

His thin arms tensed with muscle, veins bulging on his hands and neck, as if he would break out of the

cage at any moment.

“Squeak, squeak, squeak!”

Suddenly, a piercing alarm sounded, and red warning lights began to flash.

“Not good, someone has broken in illegally!”

Immediately, the mercenaries and the waiter from earlier rushed out quickly.

The red warning lights and the ear– piercing siren made Apollo even more agitated. His powerful arms and wrists shook the cage violently, and he let out a series of roars, “Ahhh

The iron bars of the cage, as thick as forearms, were being bent forcefully by the frenzied Apollo. It was as if he felt no pain, struggling incessantly.

The chains around his wrists and ankles had already caused many bloody marks.

Bright red blood flowed down the chains to the ground, stark and terrifying…

Seeing him like this, Milly felt a pang of pain in her heart. She was just about to step forward to calm him. down when George stopped her.

“Don’t go over there. It’s too dangerous.”

Milly bit her lip, a look of helplessness appearing in her eyes for the first time. “But he’s bleeding so much.

She knew she was never a saint, nor did she have a heart to save the world…

But facing this boy, she couldn’t remain indifferent. He and the mute brother who used to bring her potatoes overlapped miraculously in her memories.

She wasn’t saving him, she was saving that powerless childhood!

George took out his phone and dialed a number. “There’s a situation in the basement. The Ghost Sect has probably started their operation. Send more

George hung up after giving instructions and looked at Milly, who was still lost in her thoughts. He felt an overwhelming sense of compassion for her. He

“It’s okay, trust me. I will protect both you and Apollo. No one will hurt you.”

Oliver opened his laptop, his fingers quickly decoding the security system.

Soon, the entire basement’s surveillance appeared on the screen.

King frowned as he watched the footage, muttering, “Do they really need this much security? Five layers of security doors? Could they already know we

Leon also studied the monitors and said. “It’s possible. If we can find out, so can Shadow Palace.

“And these doors aren’t just to keep us out, they’re also to prevent the experiments from escaping

King nodded in agreement.

True, if the experiments escaped, it wouldn’t just be a financial loss. The whole world could be thrown into panic.”

Oliver suddenly frowned and spoke up, “Someone has already gone in. My system shows the security doors were opened a minute ago.”

King clicked his tongue. “Looks like the auction is over, and the big spenders have arrived.”

He turned to Oliver, urging him as he watched the monitor, “Idiot, pull up the innermost camera feed.”

Oliver’s face flushed with anger. He slammed his hand on the table and stood up, ready to throttle King. “Who are you calling an idiot? You’re the idiot! Your whole family’s idiots!”

King loved provoking Oliver, finding joy in his outbursts. “Heh, whoever responds is the idiot.”

You!

As the two seemed ready to come to blows, Leon felt a headache coming on.

“Enough, you two. Get back to the task. This is not the time to mess around.”

King immediately backed off, releasing Oliver’s wrist. He patted Oliver’s ruffled pink hair and said with a smile, “Don’t fuss, Leon’s getting mad.”

Oliver was furious. “You started it by calling me idiot!”

It was always the same–King would start the personal attacks and somehow end up looking like the good

guy.

It wasn’t fair!

But one glance at Leon’s cold eyes was enough to make him stop moving, his anger subsiding quickly.

An angry Leon was indeed terrifying

Despite his complaints, Oliver’s fingers moved swiftly over the keyboard, inputting various codes. Soon, the surveillance feeds from all corners appeared

But as he tried to unlock the innermost room, where the experiments were held, the characters on the computer began to jump uncontrollably.

Oliver froze. “What’s happening?”

As he tried to regain control, a piercing alarm sounded outside.

“This is bad! We’ve been detected!”

Oliver quickly pulled back from the surveillance tracking, but the alarm continued to blare.

“Someone tampered with the surveillance. It must have triggered the alarm.

“I should have been more careful. I’m sorry, Leon….

Oliver looked at Leon, feeling deeply remorseful. This was his first major mistake.

His tracking abilities had always been impeccable, without a single error in countless missions–until now.

He had underestimated the situation. Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.

Leon watched the monitor as more people started moving towards their location. He pursed his lips. “It’s not your fault. It’s likely Shadow Palace’s doing.

Leon cocked his gun, put on his mask, and said coldly, “Let’s move!”

Oliver stood up quickly. “I’m coming with you.”

“No!” Leon stopped him. “It’s too dangerous. Follow the usual protocol. Stay outside and cover us.”

King, now serious, looked at him and said, “Listen to Leon. Protect yourself. If things go wrong, worry about us, got it?”
