It was the wee hours of the night. Be was sound asleep, cuddling Justin. But the man was still awake, reviewing a stack of financial reports and project proposals on the bedside table.


    Suddenly, someone knocked on the door. Wilma''s urgent voice came through. "Young Master, Young Madam, are you asleep?"


    Afraid of waking Be, Justin carefully got out of bed and went to open the door. "Wilma, it''s sote. Why are you not asleep yet?"


    "Young Master, the fourth Thompson brother is here!"


    "You mean Drew?" Justin was taken aback.


    "Yeah! He is in the living room, and he looks terrible. You should go see him quickly!"


    At this moment, Be rubbed her sleepy eyes and shuffled to his side while wearing fuzzy slippers. "Justin... I heard you guys saying that Drew is here?"


    "Sorry for waking you up." Justin''s eyes softened as he wrapped his arm around her waist, holding her gently.


    Be leaned against his chest, their bodies only separated by a thin sheet of silk. “I''m alright, but Drew wouldn''te to disturb us sote at night for no good reason. Justin, let''s go see him quickly."


    When Justin and Be saw Drew, whose face was covered in blood and his shirt torn and tattered, their expressions changed. Especially Be, who had never seen her brother in such a sorry state. Her fourth brother was always as strong as a deity to her. Naturally, when Drew was on missions, he would not let his most beloved sister see those near-death moments.


    "Drew! What happened? Are you hurt?!" Be quickly ran forward, frantically examining his shoulder, the color draining from her face.


    "Be, I''m fine." Drew looked as if the soul was sucked from his body. His gaze was empty, and his voice was low.


    Be was burning with anxiety. "How can you say that you''re fine? What''s up with your face? What happened to your clothes?!"


    After a while, Drew raised his handsome face. Between his heavy breaths, it was as if some intense emotions were about to burst from his chest. "Be, I''ve never asked you for anything all these years, but this time... I beg you..."


    Looking at him, Justin''s eyes widened in shock.


    He had seen Drew in all kinds of emotions-yful, joyous, angry, violent... Except for this emotion.


    Be''s voice was hoarse from anxiety, and she shook his shoulders. "Drew, why are you acting polite with me? Just tell me what you need!"


    "Do you have any way to save her?"


    "Save who?!"


    Drew''s throat choked up. "Yvonne."


    Justin and Be were stunned. This was the first time they heard Drew speak of another woman''s name.


    Drew lowered his eyes and pulled a packet of blue pills from his inner pocket, putting it in Be''s palm.


    Be''s eyes widened unbelievably. "Drew, where did you get these pills from?!"


    "It''s Yvonne." Then he pursed his lips and recounted everything that had happened not long ago.


    Be and Justin held their breaths the entire time, looking restless.


    Merely thinking about that type of sheer thrill made their scalps tingle and hearts race.


    "So, the mastermind is Christopher?"


    Justin''s fists hardened, clenching


    his fingers tightly. "He disguised this unknown medicine as drugs and used Aaron to help distribute them, simultaneously shipping them abroad and gathering the druglords to spread the goods.


    "It looks like drug trafficking, but actually, they''re using those drug addicts for human experiments. His aim from the start was not to make money!"This is property ? N?velDrama.Org.


    "For a drug to go on the market, it


    could take up to five to ten years to go through theplex process of development, clinical trials, and obtaining approval from the


    el.ne


    government. Repeatedly testing on animals produces data far less urate than testing on humans."


    Thinking of the inhumane and unforgivable deeds, Be seethed with anger. "With enough experimental subjects and detailed data, it might really speed up the development of the medicine significantly. Ten years could be shortened to two or three years!


    "It must be a very strong medicine.


    Otherwise, Christopher wouldn''t take such a huge fisk to carry out human experiments. If they seeded, Christopher would be unstoppable! As for that Deputy Chief, he bably had something to do with suddenly getting arrested. Hooking up with the police is a typical tactic of the Iverson family. He probably contributed to the drug experiment behind the scenes as well.”


    With the clues Yvonne provided, Be immediately connected all the people and events, showcasing her outstanding logic.


    "I wanted to bring Yvonne with me, but she refused. She wanted to stay by Christopher''s side as a spy."


    Yvonne''s resolute gaze appeared in Drew''s mind, piercing through his heart and then twisting it. "Be, nothing can happen to her!" Be grabbed his cold hands. "Drew, you... Yvonne..."


    Drew looked at his sister''s beautiful face, and his nose tingled. Once, she was so simr to Be, indistinguishable from afar.


    Now, Yvonne was no longer a replica of Be. She was not anyone''s substitute.


    Yvonne was Yvonne, who only belonged to him...


    Emotions surged in his heart, and Drew said each word heavily with determination, “Be, I love her... I''m in love with Yvonne."
