Glenn stared directly at Mr. Zhang. “He’s going to create a virus that will collapse the entire world, sir.”Mr. Zhang was stunned for a moment. Being from a generation before millennials, he didn’t fully understand the complexities of viruses and their consequences. People in the past didn’t have such complicated problems, even though their lives were much harder and tougher.“A virus? Like in the movies? People turning into zombies, is that what you mean? Is that even possible?” Mr. Zhang bombarded Glenn with questions.“No, not like that, sir. It’s more of a disease. Something like a cough, cold, and fever, but with fatal consequences.”“The flu? You just need to rest and eat chicken soup. You’ll be better in a few days.” Mr. Zhang chuckled. “Don’t try to scare this old man, Glenn. That’s just a common illness.”Glenn realized that giving a frightening description of the COVID-19 virus would only make Mr. Zhang paranoid, or worse, stress him out. That would be very dangerous.So, G

The next morning, Glenn had a serious conversation with Mr. Zhang, naturally trying to realize the idea that Hazel had accidentally suggested. They talked seriously on the balcony, while gazing at the beautiful backyard garden of Mr. Zhang's house.“Making supplements, huh?” Mr. Zhang muttered.“But with the best ingredients, that can be as affordable as possible for the lower classes too.”Mr. Zhang chuckled softly. “Now, now… you have to face reality, Glenn. There’s no medicine or supplement of the highest quality labeled with a cheap price. You get what you pay for, you should know that.”“If produced on a large scale, I’m sure we can reduce production costs.”Mr. Zhang's lips pursed, and his forehead furrowed, showing he was thinking hard. Glenn’s idea seemed almost impossible. Because still, there would be negative impacts.The first impact, reducing production costs would mean very little profit. If there was investor funding involved, Mr. Zhang was certain it would not satisfy

Mr. Zhang was in his office when Glenn and Sean came to see him. The father of Mei was busy on the phone. When he saw the two figures standing at the threshold of his half-open office door, Mr. Zhang motioned for them to come in.“Alright then, we’ll discuss this at the meeting. Yes, yes… I’ve already contacted Dao, he seems interested,” Mr. Zhang said to someone on the phone. He gestured for Glenn and Sean to sit.“For the details, you can hear from him later. Alright then, see you at the meeting, Yuen,” concluded Mr. Zhang.He ended the call and placed his phone on the desk. Mr. Zhang’s face looked relieved and somewhat enthusiastic.“It seems my associates are interested in the business proposal you’ll present later, Glenn,” Mr. Zhang said. “I deliberately gave them a little information beforehand to pique their interest.”“Well, that’s good,” Glenn nodded.“I don’t think you need to worry; I’ve handled everything.” Mr. Zhang cleared his throat softly, then glanced at Sean. “Oh, is

You can stay here with your grandmother,” said Mr. Zhang.It wasn't a good idea according to Glenn. Not that it mattered, Mr. Zhang was quite skilled at playing his part to help Glenn in the first place. Telling Mr. Zhang part of the plan could be both good and bad.It was possible that Mr. Zhang had already told Mason, meaning Glenn was now in Mason’s grasp. That way, Mason could easily destroy Glenn through Mr. Zhang.However, Glenn had thought of another strategy. With both of them feeling confident, believing Glenn to be naive and trusting, both Mr. Zhang and Mason would likely lower their guard.Because of this, Glenn actually wanted the people close to him to keep some distance. Including Hazel, who should return to Eagertown. This made Glenn consider whether he should have Sean and his grandmother stay in Eagertown instead.Glenn could arrange that, and Arthur and Irina wouldn’t mind. Staying with Eugene would be fine as well. Sean and his grandmother would live well there.“We

After dinner, Glenn went to his room to have a serious talk with Hazel. Whether it was the right time to reveal everything, Glenn had to ensure his wife's safety. Without an explanation, Hazel might be just as stubborn.Glenn leaned against the headboard, sitting next to Hazel with their legs stretched out together. Hazel clung to Glenn as if she didn’t want to be far from him.“I need to have a serious talk with you, love,” Glenn began.Until now, Glenn’s problems had come from a future known only to Connor and Mason. Whether it was wise for Glenn to tell Hazel, it was a heavy burden for him to keep such a big secret.Hazel was very honest, good, and loyal. Meanwhile, Glenn was still hiding something very crucial. Even though, if Hazel knew, she might think Glenn was insane or something.Hazel looked up at him, “What do you want to talk about?”“I want you to return to Eagertown as soon as possible.”Hazel's expression immediately changed. “But, you said…”“Please listen to me first

“Of course.”Mr. Zhang said this with a broad smile, becoming even more convinced that Glenn had fallen into his hands. Glenn seemed to admire the middle-aged man.Finally, Mr. Zhang nodded, granting Glenn’s request. “Alright, you can go with Sean and my men,” he said, then turned his attention to his subordinates. “Take good care of Mr. Glenn, make sure nothing happens to him. The same goes for Sean.”“Yes, sir,” they replied in unison.“Make sure this mission is quick and doesn’t arouse suspicion. You know the procedures, and explain them to Mr. Glenn during the journey,” added Mr. Zhang.All his subordinates nodded together, again replying, “Yes, sir.”“Well, good luck. I hope there are no obstacles,” concluded the professor.And so the mission commenced. They left precisely at nine in the evening, with the expectation of arriving at Sean’s residence before midnight. During the journey, Glenn was briefed on the plan.Some of Mr. Zhang’s men would guard the perimeter, while the rest

Glenn didn’t want to get into a lengthy debate as their time was very limited, so he reluctantly nodded in agreement. Sean looked more at ease, then helped his grandmother put on her coat. Once they were ready, the three of them quietly left the house.Pao and his partner immediately noticed Glenn approaching, and they started walking ahead to ensure there were no obstacles in their path. Luckily, it was quite deserted, allowing them to move quickly toward the village gate.They hid behind a wall as they neared the village gate, with Pao squinting to check the post, which appeared empty."I think it’s safe, let’s go," Pao whispered.As they were about to pass through the gate, headlights approached from the right, while from the left, a procession of torches drew near. The situation was completely off-plan. They couldn’t go back into hiding.“What now?” Sean looked confused.“Run to the car as fast as you can!” Glenn commanded.“But…”Before Sean could finish his sentence, Glenn scoop

Hazel recounted the incident that happened shortly after Glenn left to rescue Grandma Mari. Mei had called Hazel to the living room to discuss something. Their conversation was brief, focusing on Hazel’s plan to return to Eagertown.Mei apologized for not being able to join them, as she had work to do with her father. Hazel didn’t mind and told Mei she would be heading to Eagertown soon with Sean and his grandmother.After their conversation, they returned to their respective rooms. Hazel took a wrong turn in the corridor and got a bit lost in Mr. Zhang’s residence. She ended up near a room she wasn’t familiar with and overheard Mr. Zhang talking to someone on the phone, who turned out to be Mason."Darling, no one saw you? I'm really worried," Glenn whispered."I don’t think so, but there were surveillance cameras. I need to leave soon, love. I don’t want Professor Zhang to get suspicious and then we can’t get out of here.""You're right.""What I overheard was about a laboratory in
