Chapter 325
When the last bit of liquid entered her body, Stellan finally opened the office door. His expression was dark as he strode toward her.
“Elysia, what’s wrong with you?” Stellan asked.
It was only when he got closer that he noticed the syringe that had fallen to the ground and the box that even he couldn’t open, its mouth now wide
open.
Stellan froze, his gaze sweeping over the three objects before settling on the two remaining vials in the box.
He bent down slowly and picked up one of them.
“Wait!” Elysia had intended to stop him, but Stellan dodged her. Fortunately, there were no words written on the vial.
Even the box was the same, giving no information.
Stellan turned and grabbed Elysia’s arm, the slight bruising from the needle revealing what she had been doing in the room just
He blurted out, “Are you stupid, Elysia? How dare you inject yourself without knowing what’s in it? What if it’s drugs?”
But when he saw her withdraw her hand guiltily, his eyes darkened.
now.
‘It seems there is a secret between Elysia and Father… Stellan thought, ‘She can find and even open the password box so precisely, inject hersel an unknown liquid so decisively, and be so strong and ruddy after injecting the liquid.
Stellan reached out again, but his target was her chin this time.
And this time, the force was overwhelming. Elysia couldn’t escape and was forced to look up at him.
“I underestimated you. You can even get so close to an old man. Want to be my stepmother?” Stellan asked.
Stellan was still smiling, but the emotions in his eyes were turbulent and dangerous.
When Elysia didn’t respond, he muttered, “So, you made a deal with that old man to get the Rookwood family’s property? Too bad it won’t work out. He signed the Rookwood Group over to me a year ago, including this.”
After saying that, Stellan flung Elysia away like a rag, grabbed the remaining two reagents, and smashed them on the floor–to–ceiling window.
There was a cracking sound.
After the crisp sound of glass breaking, the reagent shattered, and the transparent liquid splashed everywhere.
Elysia was lying on the ground, watching countless tiny fragments pass before her eyes.
Stellan, on the other hand, angrily flicked his sleeves and left.
Elysia lowered her head silently, seeing no need to explain herself now that things had come to this point.
‘My way out was blocked once again, Elysia thought to herself, and at the same time, picked up a small piece on the ground and crushed it.
Crimson blood seeped out from her fingertip, but the wound healed in two seconds, leaving her skin spotless after wiping off the blood.
Jaycob hadn’t lied to her.
But she had only injected one dose. She wondered how long it could last…
Stellan, watching this scene from behind the screen, stopped working immediately.
He remembered Elysia’s injuries from the Drayton family were severe and slow to heal, but this time, the injection brought about a visible
recovery.
Stellan couldn’t help but think, ‘But what had I done back then?
I had smashed the last two doses of the medicine that could help her regain her self–healing ability.

If Elysia had injected all three doses, would she still have died that day?
What could have been going through her mind at that time?
‘How could she have such a bad and stupid brother like me?‘
But Stellan quickly masked his guilt and threw himself back into his research.
He stared at the android, its appearance so eerily identical to Elysia’s that it was unsettling.
“There’s no need to worry,” he said, “It won’t be long now. I’ve almost finished integrating your memories into this body. We are so close, it, you can grow on your own.
“Soon we’ll be a real family, my dear sister.”
The tampered memories were enough to reconcile them and make her dependent only on him and hateful of everyone else.
Stellan looked at the android, almost identical to Elysia, his eyes brimming with love.
He couldn’t help but brush the hair from her forehead and lean down to kiss “Elysia” on the head.
But he stopped himself after only a second.
Stellan, who had exuded maternal radiance, became instantly cold.
He said, “No… The smell is wrong.”
This “Elysia” didn’t have the faint, calming lotus fragrance of Elysia’s body.
‘But it’s not a major obstacle,” he thought, “Once I have Elysia’s body, I can extract both the glands and it.‘
Nerve substance Dsy–331 in the cerebral cortex. It was the way to resurrect a person, written on the last page hidden by his father.
Two pages were hidden under the bed, and the last one was swallowed.
‘You sly old dog, Stellan cursed silently.
Stellan sneered and stood up, confirming the news on his phone again before quickly leaving the lab.
now. With
Regarding Valeria’s idea of recruiting talented people from all over the world to resurrect Elysia, he initially held the attitude of giving it a try.
It was different now. He had become Dr. Rookwood who scoffed at all metaphysics except science.
The first thing he did after getting in the car was to turn on the live broadcast. Looking at the lively Elysia in the picture, he whispered, “Wait for me to pick you up. Elysia.”
