Chapter 789
Zayne knew the medication was taking effect. Prying away Sylvie's fingers, he hastily went to look for the doctor.
When she was saved, he let out a sigh of relief.
“Please inject her with some sedatives,” Zayne pleaded with the doctor.
If Sylvie regained consciousness, she would think about him. At the thought that she might not be able to be saved
again during a subsequent cardiac arrest, he had no choice but to let her sleep.
Zayne found a caregiver to take care of Sylvie.
He did not know where Genevieve was. After obtaining Timothy's number from the doctor, Zayne contacted the
latter. “Mr. Jensen, I am General Zeigler's grandson, Zayne.”
“Oh. What's the matter?” Timothy asked impatiently.
“I know Forlisle Medical's research lab must have invented Curb.emotion's antidote.” Zayne gulped, adding in
earnest, “I hope you'll sell me one vial of the cure.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtUpon hearing Zayne's awareness of the medication, Timothy seemed to have had a hunch. “If you want the
antidote, you'll have to look for Cooper at Specter Corporation.”
With that, Timothy hung up the call.
Although Zayne seldom visited Jadeborough, he was slightly informed of Cooper's close relationship with Jane.
Zayne realized even if Cooper had the antidote, the latter would never give it to him because Sylvie had caused
Jane's death.
However, upon remembering Sylvie's condition when she endured the agony of a relapse, he gritted his teeth and
hailed a cab to Specter Corporation.
Coincidentally, Genevieve was at Specter Corporation too at that time.
After Armand accompanied Genevieve on an overseas trip, he left the following day upon their return to the
country. Armand merely left Genevieve a message on WhatsApp, telling her he had some important matters to
attend to. However, he did not instruct Steven to tag along.
Genevieve called and messaged him, but he did not reply. Feeling ill at ease, she went to look for Cooper.
“I really don't know what matter he's handling. Armand is a brilliant man who always thinks and plans ahead. You
don't have to worry about him,” Cooper uttered frankly.
Genevieve frowned as the uneasiness lingered in her chest.
She was also familiar with Armand's wittiness. Still, she thought it was unlike him to just leave her a message on
WhatsApp and leave in a hurry that early in the morning.
At that moment, Bertilla knocked on the door and entered. “Mr. Sutton, a Mr. Zayne Zeigler wishes to meet with
you. He's waiting downstairs.”
Taken aback, Genevieve asked, “Coop, why is he looking for you?”
“I don't know.” Cooper got up and picked up his suit jacket on the chair. Putting it on, he said to Bertilla, “Ask him to
wait for me at the cafe beside our company.”
"Yes, Mr. Sutton.”
Inside the elevator on their way downstairs, Cooper informed Genevieve, “I instructed my men to keep an eye on
Sylvie. All this while, Zayne had been keeping her company. They were preparing to travel abroad this morning, but
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSylvie suddenly fainted. Before you arrived, Timothy called me and told me Zayne contacted him to request
Curb.emotion's antidote.”
Cooper had been putting his plan to target Sylvie on hold because he knew the vial of Curb.emotion Armand
acquired from Timothy was to be used on Sylvie. Besides, he also knew about Sylvie and Zayne's romantic
relationship.
Now, it was time for Sylvie to face retribution.
Entering the cafe, Cooper and Genevieve saw Zayne, who was sitting around a window seat. They then walked over
and sat opposite him.
“How many episodes of cardiac arrests did Sylvie experience so far?” Cooper asked Zayne coolly.
Hearing Cooper's question, Zayne speculated Cooper to be the one who had ordered someone to inject
Curb.emotion into Sylvie's body secretly. Clenching his fists under the table, Zayne uttered with difficulty, “Twice... I
know you have the antidote. I'm willing to give you whatever you want from me.”
After learning Sylvie was under the influence of Curb.emotion, Zayne would rather wish she was merely using him
instead of loving him.
If Sylvie was a cold-hearted and unfeeling person, Curb.emotion would have been ineffective toward her.
Before Cooper could say a word, Genevieve piped up, “Zayne, your grandpa and father have high hopes for you.
You shouldn't waste your time on someone like her. She deserves to die after all the sins she has committed.”
