Betrayed, But Not Defeated novel Chapter 244

"Mr. Ashcroft, I want to do something," Alden said, looking at Daniel.

Daniel glanced at him. "Are you sure you're up for it in your current condition?"

"Yes, I'm sure." Alden nodded firmly.

"Alright." Daniel placed a card on the table. "This is your startup fund."

"Understood," Alden said with a smile.

"And oh, here's Joshua's number. Take him with you," Daniel added, handing over Joshua's contact information.

Joshua's strength was considerable, and with his help, at least there was no need to worry about Alden's safety.

Once Alden left, Daniel finally received a call from Willow.

"Congratulations, Mr. Ashcroft! The clinical results of the Genetic serum have far exceeded expectations!" Willow said in a voice filled with awe.

This meant the Genetic serum was ready for market release, which was a monumental milestone for Ashcroft Group. It was also the first bait Daniel had cast. Once the serum hit the market, there was no way for those who had long coveted the secret to genetic longevity to be able to sit still.

"Ms. Keaton, congratulations to you as well. Since the clinical trials have passed, let's get the announcement ready," Daniel said with a light chuckle.

"That wouldn't be a problem, of course," Willow replied with a smile. After a few more pleasantries, she ended the call.

Once she had hung up, Willow frowned and picked up the report in front of her. "Still no leads?"

Billy Gladstone, the highly paid biology expert Willow had hired, shook his head. "I'm sorry, Ms. Keaton. We still can't figure out how these Genetic serums work. But given enough time, I believe we can crack them."

At the same time, a powerful aura erupted from him, causing a stir throughout the Keaton family's ancestral grounds.

"Has William finally succeeded?"

"After so many years, someone in our family has finally reached this level! At long last, some good karma!"

"It must not have been easy for William to rise up again after hitting rock bottom."

The elderly members of the Keaton family, their hair streaked with gray, witnessed the scene with a mix of excitement and envy in their eyes.

There was no doubt about it—William had truly entered the legendary Energy Refining Phase. This meant the situation in Legate was about to undergo a seismic shift.

An Energy Refining expert was a top-tier existence, even in a cultivator-filled metropolis like Magden, let alone in Legate. At long last, the Keaton family was on the rise!
