Lionel had no interest in arguing. He was about to finish the guy off with a single strike when Quinlyn spoke up. “I want him

too.”

Lionel froze for a moment, thinking, ‘You want everyone, huh?”

But since they had already agreed, going back on their word was not an option. Still, Lionel was puzzled. “What do you want him for?”

‘She could use those pregnant women for experiments, but what can she possibly do with this guy?‘ Lionel wondered.

“I need an assistant,” Quinlyn stated plainly. “Wouldn’t want you guys stealing my core technology.”

Lionel held back his words for a long moment but found himself unable to argue. He did want the formula, after all.

Quinlyn injected the man with something, and though he struggled in pain and reluctance, he had no choice but to submit.

They returned to the city center. Seeing that the man was starving, Quinlyn decided to take him to a restaurant first.

As soon as the food arrived, he lunged at the table, stuffing his face without a care for the startled looks from those around him.

An hour later, he was curled up on the floor, clutching his stomach. He raised a trembling middle finger at Quinlyn. “Why the hell did you have to hit me in the gut?

“I finally got that food down, and now I nearly threw it all up. You’re ruthless.”

Quinlyn, barely lifting a finger, nestled into the couch and started watching TV.

The man grimaced, crawled back up, and settled into a single–seater across from her, keeping a wary eye on her every move.

Quinlyn hugged a pillow, watching SpongeBob with a grin on her face.
