Chapter 420 Captivating and Neglecting

Upon hearing Aletta’s request, Lewis’s face immediately turned serious.

Without hesitation, he firmly rejected it. “It’s best not to for now. One injection was already the limit. The previous injection was necessary, but you have no idea what kind of suffering you might endure if you have another one. I can’t guarantee what might happen with a second injection!”

Jock, who was standing nearby, also advised, “Aletta, Lewis is right. You shouldn’t act recklessly.”

Kirk expressed her concern; her expression was filled with worry. “No matter what, we should put your health as a priority.”

Even Gene nodded in agreement.

They formed a united front, opposing Aletta’s request for another injection.

In truth, Aletta understood their concerns.

After hearing their words, she gave up on the idea.

It seemed that it was not feasible.

Jock couldn’t help but blurt out what she was thinking, “You should just tell Jason! Jason has experienced countless storms and hardships; how could he be unable to bear this?”

“I also think you’re underestimating him!” Kirk unexpectedly chimed in.

“I didn’t think that way! I concealed it from him before because I

thought we still had a chance, that maybe we could find a solution. But now…”

Aletta sighed. “I intended to tell him last night, but we were interrupted by someone.”

The courage she had mustered was shattered with the arrival of Eaton.

The others didn’t know what else to say.

Continuing the conversation on this topic would only make it heavier, so Aletta changed the subject. “How is the progress?”

Lewis composed himself and said, “The development of the antidote is ongoing, but progress is slow. Therefore, we have decided to focus on improving the suppressant drug and minimize its side effects and buy you more time.”

He paused for a moment before adding, “If you’re worried about Jason, find a way to make him return to France first.”

After the drug was developed, there would be an experimental stage.

Since there were no other patients with a similar condition like Aletta, the drug would be directly used on her.
