Betrayed, But Not Defeated novel Chapter 214

Amelia's face turned red.

"Oh no, I'm so nervous I forgot to take off my badge!" she thought.

Since she had been discovered, Amelia no longer tried to hide it. "Mr. Ashcroft, I was just transferred to Qranross. From now on, we'll need to work together on things."

Daniel smiled. "Of course. Cooperating with the police is also my duty. If there's nothing else, I'll be on my way."

"Mr. Ashcroft! We received information that criminals are planning to attack you. I came here to protect you!" Amelia exclaimed when she saw Daniel turning to leave.

Daniel looked at her speechlessly.

Protect? With just her?

Daniel shook his head. "I appreciate your kindness, Ms. Quinn. But while there is indeed a fugitive in Qranross right now, I doubt he has the guts to act at this moment."

"A fugitive? Who?" Amelia looked at Daniel in surprise.

"Omari Dooly." After saying this, Daniel got into his car and drove away.

Amelia frowned. "This guy, seriously! Ugh! This is so embarrassing! No, Amelia, you can't be this nervous! You can do this! Yes! You can!"

After psyching herself up, Amelia got into her car, but a hint of confusion flashed in her eyes.

She was in the middle of nowhere. Where was she supposed to go?

Wait, wasn't she supposed to be following Daniel? How did he just leave like that?

Amelia quickly started her car, intending to continue tailing Daniel. But he was nowhere in sight now.

…

Daniel drove to Ashcroft Group.

Daniel found the name a bit strange. "Genetic serum? Don't tell me it's some kind of potion that makes people level up instantly."

Conor shook his head. "Not at all. It's specifically designed to treat genetic disorders in ordinary people, improve physical health, and cure cancer."

Hearing this, Daniel raised an eyebrow.

Not to mention the other effects, just the ability to cure cancer—if it could do so without harming the body—the market potential of this genetic serum would be immense.

"Then start mass production as soon as possible," Daniel said smilingly.

Conor gave a bitter smile. "Mr. Ashcroft, you're oversimplifying things. When we tried to produce the genetic serum, the obstacles and resistance we encountered were far greater than expected."

Daniel narrowed his eyes.

It seemed the downfall of the Ashcroft family wasn't just because of Omari—he was probably the one who got pushed to the forefront.
