it from Thomas," Christopher said, his expression shifting immediately after. "I only found out but everything I told you last night was true. If you don't believe me, I can get tested."

Luna's astonishment was instantly replaced by embarrassment.

At that moment, the manager seemed to have recalled something. His expression drastically changed, and he hastily left.

Realization belatedly dawned upon the researchers. "Wait a minute. So that's why she was holding that syringe filled with a liquid that looked like blood! She was planning to... Don't tell me last night she was planning to..." Everyone turned to look at Christopher in shock.

Her target last night was Christopher, but now it's Luna What a madwoman. Isabella sighed.

Christopher snorted. "Who knows? Anyway, we should all be on guard whenever she shows up in the future."

Luna was in a daze, finding it hard to fathom how things had ended up this way.

Since it was an intentional assault case, they all had to stay behind and cooperate with the police interrogation before they could leave.

Christopher's wound was severe and required stitches, so he was immediately taken to the hospital, accompanied by Hayden.

When Isabella stepped out of the police station, she spotted a tall, slender man standing by a black business car. The man was clad in a grey overcoat, beneath which a glimpse of a black suit could be seen.

Dressed meticulously, he stood rigidly straight. Under his thick long lashes were profound, penetrating eyes that stared intently at the entrance of the police station, patiently waiting for someone.

Though Isabella didn't have feelings for Alexander, she had to admit she felt a sense of security the moment he appeared.

Isabella approached him briskly. Instead of standing there and waiting for her to come to him, he walked over. His legs were long, covering a large distance as he strode toward her. She had barely taken a few step when he reached her, scanning her from head to toe before he finally spoke. "Are you hurt?"

Isabella waved her hands

and said, "No. Why are you here? I thought Hayden arranged for a lawyer to handle it. Once Christopher's wound is stitched up, he can be transferred back. Didn't he tell you?"

Observing that Isabella seemed to be in good spirits, Alexander knew that she hadn't been traumatized. "I couldn't reach him. He's asleep from the anesthesia," he said.

"Shall we head to the hospital now?" Isabella asked.
