Looking at how serious the prison officer was, Edward had no choice but to follow him."What are you doing, Edward?" his friends asked as he stood up from his bed."I have to follow him. If anything happens to me, tell Marcus Santosh," Edward whispered to his friends. With that, he followed the prison officer, who guided him through the dark, lonely corridor of the prison to a destination he knew nothing about. Everywhere was silent; only the sound of their footsteps could be heard.As he walked, his heart was heaving with fear as he imagined what he was being called for. Were the nurses angry that he helped Marcus Santosh, thereby making their plans to take him to the medical center invalid? He wondered.They soon arrived at a brown door, and the prison officer opened it. Edward took the first step in and found himself in a large medical center, with hospital beds and medical facilities. The place was illuminated with dim blue lights, making it hard to see clearly. Suddenly, white li

As the nurses rained applause on Edward, Dr. Casel quietly turned and walked out of the medical center. He was too ashamed to stay by as he could already see some of the patients on the sick bed staring at him in disdain and mockery. Edward stood tall in the room, feeling like a genius. The nurses returned to their work, but he noticed the females stealing glances at him with a smile."You really did well. I was right about you?" Dr. Tish said to him with a smile. "I think we have to take a break," she said."Can you explain to me who that Casel guy is and why he is so angry with me?" Edward asked, confused."Yeah, I will when we both get to the dining hall to have breakfast. It's past 9 a.m. already, and I know you haven't had breakfast, so come on," she said.They both took off their lab coats and kept them safely, then ventured out of the medical center. They followed a staircase which led them to a beautifully decorated restaurant, with well-dressed people seated and eating while

Edward was taken out of the hall by the SWAT team and they ventured through a narrow way, led by Dr. Natasha and the man in the black suit. The walk was silent; Natasha never looked back or talked to the man next to her, but Edward stared at her in confusion and disgust.Why was Natasha taking him away? What had he done? Did she have an ulterior motive for employing him? His mind began racing through what he and Marcus had been discussing before the interruption. It was clear to him now that Natasha was up to something, but he really didn't know what she was all about.Still, he remained calm. All he wanted was to get to wherever they were taking him and see what lay behind. He believed that no matter what, he and Marcus could get through it together.They soon stopped at a door which Natasha opened and stepped through first before they entered. Edward was greeted with a large room with seat occupied by some men. The men were all dressed in blue suits, screaming affluence, but among t

"Wait. So you guys tricked me? If she isn't your daughter, then who is she?" Edward demanded, turning to the girl sitting silently on the bed, her head bowed. "Don't worry about her. It's not your concern. Come, let me show you something," Smith said. Edward followed him out of the room, with Doctor Tish and Inspector Fox close behind. "You see, Edward, I admire your spirit and intelligence. I've heard about your journey from a poor background and how your wife abandoned you. But none of that matters. Do you know why? Because you possess something invaluable—knowledge. The government doesn't care about people like us; all they do is serve their own interests. I'm sure you're aware this virus was engineered by them to control the world and profit from it. Use your talents and join me. Together, we could conquer the world, and I promise your descendants will never know poverty," Smith said. "Sir, I appreciate your advice, but I'm not interested in your agenda. I've healed the girl

It took Edward less than an hour to mix the chemicals and finally produce the virus cure. Afterward, he met Mr. Claire, who gave him a certificate of accreditation before he left the lab."I'm done, bro," Edward said to Mr. Fustus, who had been waiting in the car outside."So what's next? I'm already drained," Fustus asked, looking exhausted."Sorry, bro. Just one more step to cross, and that's visiting the WHO office.""Okay, the headquarters is an hour's drive away from here, just so you know," Fustus informed him."I know, bro. Let's proceed."Mr. Fustus ignited the engine, and they drove off. They approached the massive office of the WHO and both exited the car. Edward stood for a minute outside to admire the view. He had only visited this place once, back when he was in college. They had come for an excursion. He had always dreamed of submitting a sample of his medicine to save the world, and standing there now made him feel like he was so close to achieving his dreams.They both
