Chapter 263

"The military's really interested in that drug. If she agrees to treat other patients, she's bound to get involved with them. I'm worried they might..."

Elian's gaze turned steely, his voice cold and firm. "If she decides to help, not a single person in the entire military would dare touch her. Not even if the President himself shows up."

Mr. Ashcroft nodded slowly at Elian's statement. After a moment, he turned to Elian. "And what about you? What are you waiting for?"

He knew Elian had already made up his mind to return. But during this time, he hadn't made a move, prompting the question.

Mr. Ashcroft had an inkling of what Elian was waiting for, but it was more interesting to hear it from the man himself. Being old, he sought out the young folks' stories to amuse himself.

Elian leaned back on the couch, hands resting behind his head, staring into space. What was he waiting for?

He was waiting for her to resolve the turmoil in her heart. Waiting for her to bring justice to those who wronged her, to clear her name. Waiting for his little girl to slay the wicked dragons and become her own hero.
