Chapter 3449 Are You Telling Me How To Do My Job

"No." Shanks' tone was cold and firm with no trace of hesitation.

Abel still looked doubtful.

Shanks added, "Would you like to see her medical report?"

Abel was startled for a moment. How did Shanks know he had been thinking about that report?

Now that Shanks brought it up, the idea lost its appeal.

Abel shook his head. "Even if you showed it to me, I wouldn't understand it. Shanks, Kassy's life is in your hands. If you can give her a second chance, I'll provide as much research funding as you need."

Shanks remained silent. He could save Kassy. In fact, his research had always been for Kassy. However, he did not expect Abel to be so ruthless as to insist on using a living person as a donor for Kassy. That was something he could not accept.

Kassy's condition could be treated with organs from a brain-dead patient. Why destroy a perfectly healthy life?

Shanks was not acting out of mercy. He simply refused to go against his medical ethics.

He was not someone who had to save lives, but he would not harm others in the name of science either.

Abel noticed Shanks was ignoring him. He stepped forward, and his voice turned low and menacing. It was a warning but also a reminder.

"Shanks, we've been working together for a long time. As long as Kassy pulls through, I'll bankroll whatever research you want. But let me be clear-I can't have anything going off track with this plan. You get what I'm saying?"

The warning loomed over Shanks like a storm. He understood what Abel meant. He just did not want to care.

"I have work to do. If you have nothing else to say, leave." Shanks' voice was calm.
