Chapter 729: A Precious Gift from Her Uncle

Her gaze suddenly sharpened.

"I don't have all day to waste with you. Hand over the formula now!"

"Elsa, I really don't understand. You've guarded a worthless piece of paper for so long. The Dyer family is gone, what use do you have holding onto that thing? Just give it to me. Considering you've been cooperative, I might even ensure your family lives a normal life."

Ella Bailey had heard that the formula Elsa held could bring the dead back to life.

She-must have it.

Elsa looked at Sally, held hostage by Woods, her heart waging a fierce battle, her face turning from pale to flushed.

After a long while, Elsa bit her lip and looked up at Ella Bailey, "I've already given the formula to Miss Reed. Even if you kill us, it's pointless."

Ella Bailey's expression darkened, and she lunged forward, grabbing Elsa by the throat, "Elsa, do you think I'm a fool?! You would rather sell your blood than give it up! What did that Tina give you to make you so compliant?"

Elsa, struggling to breathe, gasped, "Miss Reed helped me! Of course, I'd give it to her rather than to someone like you, you arrogant and malicious woman!"

Her eyes turned fierce, and her grip on Elsa's neck tightened.

Ella Bailey's rationality returned at the sound of Woods' voice. Her eyes, fixed intensely on Elsa, tried to discern if she was telling the truth.

Seeing Elsa's composed expression, she knew it was the truth.
