Chapter 777: I Will Avenge Her Myself

The moment he spoke, silence filled the car for a full thirty seconds.

Tina looked up, her eyes meeting Hayden's with a hint of exasperation. Her younger brother always had a knack for being too clever at the most inappropriate times. Some things, even if you figured them out, were better left unsaid. Hayden realized he had misspoken and, feeling the weight of Cole's accusing glare, awkwardly laughed to shift the topic. "So... what should we do now? Head straight to the YQ lab?"

Tina nodded. "First, we'll drop Aunt off there. Her body can't hold out much longer relying solely on my pills. The lab's equipment is the most advanced in the world. Leaving her there means Wraith can help monitor her condition. I'll do a thorough examination to stabilize her life first. After that, we'll focus all our efforts on taking down the Bailey family."

Neither Hayden nor Cole objected.

Jared, regaining his composure, gripped Tina's hand tightly. "Leave Victor to me. I'll avenge Aunt myself!"

At YQ Laboratory.

Soft blue lights flickered above their heads. The thunderous sound of rain and lightning was muffled by the lab's soundproof walls. Behind the frosted glass doors, two faint silhouettes moved inside. Jared, Hayden, and the others stood outside, waiting.

"What's going on in there?" Peter Crispin whispered as he nudged Hayden with his elbow.

Before his hand lingered, Hayden swatted it away impatiently and pressed a finger to his lips. "Quiet. Come with me, I'll explain."

He glanced cautiously at Jared's stoic expression before motioning for Peter to follow him. The two tiptoed out of the lab.

Cole noticed their sneaky movements but pretended not to see. Instead, he pulled out a beer bottle from who-knows-where and took a swig. "Relax. With Serena here, nothing will go wrong." Jared's cold, unblinking gaze shifted slightly. "I know."

Cole muttered under his breath, "... Then why are you sitting here like a statue?"

Inside the operating room, Tina and Wraith worked with solemn intensity.
