Lea turned around and touched Alfred’s face. She smiled. Tll have plenty of time to catch up on sleep soon.” 

After a brief moment of eye contact, Alfred understood her meaning. 

“Be good and get some rest. His face muzzled her temple. His voice was low and enticing, filled with a bewitching charm. 

Lea’s mind was already extremely overworked. She had just performed a very difficult surgery not long ago and handled so many other things she didn’t rest, her body would collapse. 

“Alright.” She looked closely at Alfred’s eyes, noticing the redness and the bloodshot appearance. He was exhausted too. He must have been bus with work again. 

Alfred had never discussed his work in detail, and since the assassination attempt in Vaporleon City, she knew his base was overseas, 

Whether he kept it secret out of necessity or simply didn’t want to share, she didn’t mind. 

She said, “You should get some good rest too.”

Alfred’s gaze grew more 

Lea stuffed the printed materials into a drawer, 

r, and they left the lab together, heading to her dorm. 

The dorm, which doubled as an office, was tidy and cozy, like a small home. 

After washing up. Lea emerged from the bathroom to find Alfred lying on the bed. His long legs almost hung off the end, exuding a seductive 

charm 

She walked over, tossed the towel she used to dry her hair onto the bedpost, and straddled his waist. 

“Lea” Water droplets from her wet hair fell onto Alfred’s chest, making his voice hoarse. 

“Be good and get some… Before he could finish the word “sleep. Les bent down and stopped him with a kiss. 

An hour later, Lea lay in Alfred’s arms, tracing the lines on his palm as if observing a beautiful landscape. 

She felt weak all over, and her voice was soft. “Milton came to see me last night and offered his help. I refused. Mentioning Milton made her expression turn cold briefly before becoming gentle again. 

Not waiting for Alfred to respond, she continued, “I have you, and that’s enough. I don’t need anyone else’s help.” 

Alfred raised an eyebrow. 

explained her plan 

Lea rolled over, resting on his chest. “So, I need your help. She then expl 

The contented Alfred lifted her delicate chin. It was indeed difficult to refuse in such a moment and setting. “Miss Berry, you really have me completely wrapped around your finger.” 

Lea smiled softly, her fingertips tracing the bridge of his nose. “Don’t worry, I wouldn’t let anything happen to myself, I can’t bear to lose you.” 

Alfred gazed at her 

or for a moment, his concern and worry hidden in his eyes. “If there’s any danger, call me. I’ll always be here.” 

“Alright,” Lea promised him. 

She took a short nap. After waking up and getting ready in the afternoon, she headed straight to the lab, 

Lea detected the components in the Tyrant Dragon’s blood. In her past life, she had also researched gene drugs. With her photographic memory, the vividly recalled most of her past experiences and encounters. 

By modeling and writing formulas, she could virtually recreate these drugs. Then, by tracing the components, she could theoretically uncover the production and distribution channels behind the gene drugs. 

Of course, Lea did not hold out too much hope. If these people could produce such drugs, they likely had the means to avoid detection. 

After a day and a night, the public opinion surrounding Riverview Hospital garnered widespread attention. 

The hospital’s official social media account clarified that they had never researched gene drugs, diamissing online claims as baseless. 

vouched that they had never engaged in 

Dwayne also posted online, asserting that he had witnessed the establishment of Riverview Hospital and vo any illegal activities.

Chapter 279 

He mentioned that he had known Lea since she was a child, praising her as an outstanding student. 

Due to the Oliver family incident, this director gained significant online fame, and his statement stirred some reactions. However, it was quickly 

drowned out by the ongoing public uproar. 

By nightfall, the armed police unit that had arrested Yannis, accompanied by a team of medical experts, surrounded Riverview Hospital. They began searching the labs, pharmacies, and other areas thoroughly. The search lasted over two hours. finally ending past ten at night. 

In the lab, still wearing her lab coat, Lea checked the time and glanced toward the door 

Suddenly, the door was kicked open. The squad leader, along with several subordinates, stormed in They were armed and ready. 

Ordinarily, people would tremble in fear at such a sight. 

“Are you Lear” The squad leader approached her, looking her over. 

Lea wore a cap and mask, only her eyes were visible, yet those eyes showed no fear. She removed her mask. “Yes.” 

The leader’s gaze faltered slightly. Despite having seen her photo and knowing her features, the face before him was strikingly young and beautiful. 

Such looks seemed more fitting for the spotlight of the show biz, adored by young fans everywhere. No, actresses lacked her demeanor. He had never encountered a target like this before. 

Lea observed him too. She had no impression of this man: Jonah and Shannon had also investigated him, providing her with feedback that he was an ordinary institutional officer without any notable background 

However, such individuals typically acted under the orders of higher–ups. So far, they remained clueless about the mastermind behind the scenes. The leader said, “We have evidener of gene drugs and other illicit substances in your hospital. As the legal representative and principal investigator, we are placing you under arrest according to the bow 

Lea merely looked up at him without a word. Given the scale of this operation, it would be surprising if they didn’t find something. 

She said nothing. She removed her cap and lab coat to reveal slim pants that accentuated her straight legs, a simple T–shirt, and a mid–length thin 

trench coat 

The leader hadn’t expected her calmness, her lack of defense or explanation. He felt a surge of unease but quickly dismissed it, focusing on his task of bringing her in. 

“Take her away,” he instructed his subordinates 

Two officers stepped forward, cuffed Lea, and escorted her out
