    "Are... Are you sure there won''t be any issues from increasing the dosage by five folds?" rice picked up the pill, feeling a tinge of unease.


    Although she despised Jace, she had to admit he was exceptionally skilled and capable.


    Especially with the shortage of capable help, having him around would undoubtedly yield twice the results with half the effort. So, she couldn''t help but ask further.


    "It won''t kill him, but it won''t feel good either. Still, the effects are only temporary."


    Grant''s gentle face twisted into a cold and cruel smile. He spoke with azy tone, "At first, his adrenaline will surge wildly after taking it. He''ll experience extreme mental exhration, and every muscle in his body will tighten. It will be both painful and pleasurable. Then, it will gradually calm down, but after that, he will never be able to live without this substance."


    rice understood Grant''s intention immediately. He intended to control Jacepletely through addiction.


    "Jace isn''t truly on our side. He''s only serving me now because he lost his memories due to his severe injuries and the sedative drugs that temporarily suppressed his nervous system." Grant''s gaze turned abyssal. "But those who sleep will eventually awaken. Tonight, when he suddenlyshed out at you, it might be a sign of that awakening. To prevent any unexpected oues, the most effective method is to make him utterly dependent on this addiction, don''t you agree?"


    A chill surged through rice''s heart.


    She had been deeply involved in Grant''s business ventures, even participating in the development of new drugs at RC Biotech Research Center. She knew all too well what would happen to someone after taking these drugs-they would be ves to their impulses.


    "Sir, what if Jace has a strong adverse reaction to the drug and bes unusable? What then?"


    "Useless people are nothing but trash. Trash should be disposed of ordingly," Grant replied with a wave of his hand, signaling her to leave.


    At that moment, rice felt a chill run up her spine.


    It was a pity that she did not understand that she was on the same boat as Jace until her dying breath.


    As mboyant as ever, Ryan tore down the police seals and ordered his men to forcefully break into the building to search, dering he would take full responsibility for any consequences.


    But in the end, they did not manage to find anything.


    At daybreak, the group searched the entire mountain.


    After days of relentless searching, Be was clearly exhausted. Yet she stubbornly walked ahead of Justin and Ryan, quietly shedding tears as she walked.


    Be recalled how Drew had hung up without a word after learning Yvonne was missing.


    She knew that only extreme emotions could make him act so decisively. He probably feared that saying one more word might scare or hurt her.


    No one knew how long they had been searching when Ian suddenly shouted, "Mr. Salvador! Ms. Thompson! Look, there''s blood!"


    Everyone rushed forward, finding droplets of blood trailing off into the distance.


    "Use this point as the center and spread out!" Justinmanded. Upon hismand, the group dispersed swiftly like a well-trained military unit.


    Be tried to follow but was pulled back by Justin. "You''re too exhausted. Take a break."


    "I don''t need " Be resisted, tugging her wrist free.


    "Come here." This time, Justin didn''t allow her to be stubborn. He yanked her into his arms and wrapped his arm firmly around her waist, holding her in ce.


    Ryan nced at the interlocked figures of the two, and a subtle smile crept into his eyes.


    He still cared for her. No matter how stubborn his words were, his actions spoke the truth.


    Be slumped against Justin''s broad chest, her head drooping. Her thin shoulders trembled slightly, resembling a child who had made a grave mistake.


    "Still crying? You never stop, do you?" Justin frowned faintly at the sound of her soft sobs, his voice low and rough. "Be, I always thought you were strong."


    "I never was... I''ve been pretending all along..." Be''s tears clung to hershes, freezing into tiny crystals before falling. "I''ve never truly been strong, not for a single moment..." An inexplicable heaviness weighed on his heart when he heard her words.
