Tommy, Tyrone, and Casey saw him coming, all coming out of the darkness.
Casey rubbed his arm excitedly. "Liam, last time you took all my salary for a month, today I want all my money and profits back."
Liam didn't speak, his expression was serious and cold.
"I didn't come here to play cards today."
The other three people looked at each other, they felt very strange.
Immediately after that, several soft screams rang out. The three of them simultaneously felt pain in the back of their necks. They widened their eyes and immediately fell to the ground on the spot.
Jason put away the tranquilizer gun, came out from the darkness, and asked. "Liam, we can't leave them lying like this. Where should we hide them?"
Liam glanced at the three people lying on the ground, he put his hand to his lips and let out a bird call.
Waited a minute later, the villa was quiet, Derek didn't open the door.
Liam realized something was wrong, he said. "Ignore them, let's go upstairs to see the boss first."
Because the anti-theft door of the villa was closed, Liam wanted to kick the door in but was afraid that Bertha would come back later and it would be difficult for him to explain, so, in the end, he and Jason climbed up the pipe behind the mansion and went up to the second floor.
Opening the door to the room on the second floor, Derek was on the chair next to the window, there were dark red blood stains on the ground.
"Boss."
The two of them fell at his feet almost immediately, their faces pale.
Liam quickly took the cryogenic inhibitor from the small box and stabbed it hard into the vein in the middle of Derek's neck.
Jason next to him looked at his hands covered in blood, his heart was so miserable that tears came to his eyes.
Two minutes after injecting the inhibitor, Derek showed no reaction.
His whole body was still cold and showed no signs of life.
Liam's hands were shaking, he checked Derel's pulse in the middle of his neck, and it had stopped...
"You wake up. Don't sleep, boss."
Liam cried out frantically, he slapped Derek's almost white face.
Liam's tears fell freely, he knelt at Derek's feet and sobbed.
Are they late?
Jason, who was next to him, was so heartbroken that his heart felt like it was about to break.
His eyes were red, and his heart became more and more emotional.
"Boss, I beg you. Please don't sleep. Wake up, if you are already asleep, you will never wake up again."
Derek lay on the chair, he looked very peaceful, and his eyelashes never moved.
Liam was about to collapse, grabbed his arm, and shook him. "I beg you, boss. Please open your eyes and look at me, Jason has brought the inhibitor. You will be okay. How can you die in our hands? Please wake up quickly."
"Miss. Bertha… you haven't waited for her to return yet but you're leaving like this? Aren't you afraid that if she marries Bruno, she will be abused by Bruno? That's right, there's also Noa and Kirjani. You have so many love enemies, how can you die?"
"She doesn't even know that you did it all for her. Boss, do you want that? I beg you, don't sleep anymore."
He cried until he choked up, trying to wake Derek up.
But the person on the sofa didn't move at all, his whole body was cold.
Liam slid helplessly onto the ground, leaned into Derek's arms, and his emotions completely collapsed.
"Boss, I followed you when I was ten years old. You gave me fame, skills, and everything I had. Over the years, wherever you went on missions, I followed..."
He took out a small knife from his pocket, his eyes were fierce, his tone was firm, and he spoke. "My life is yours. If you die, I will die with you."
As soon as he finished speaking, he aimed the knife at his heart and stabbed without hesitation.
"Liam. No."
Jason shouted in despair.
Not as expected, blood suddenly splashed on the spot.
The sharp tip of the knife stopped at the last two millimeters, preparing to pierce Liam's skin.
Liam raised his eyes and saw a pair of blood-stained hands, but the hands were holding his wrists tightly.
It was Derek, he had woken up.
Not only that, thanks to being injected with the antidote, his strength has also recovered a lot.
He sat on the chair, looking at Liam, he had a small smile on his thin, bleeding lips.
"I'm not dead yet, why are you in such a hurry to die?"
"Boss!"
Surprise appeared in Liam's eyes, then he continued to cry. 'I thought you were dead."
Jason was young, so just now, he was extremely scared.
They both cried in front of Derek, and then they started laughing, but the tears kept flowing, their faces were very funny.
Derek gently patted Liam's shoulder comfortingly. 'Just now, I was so tired. Under the influence of the virus, my heart and pulse temporarily stopped beating, but actually, I heard everything you said."
'You heard but you didn't say a word." Liam was so angry that he hit Derek's arm hard.
Damn boss, he dared to trick his tears, ruining his image.
Derek frowned and groaned in pain.
'I'm sorry." Liam was so upset that he slapped his right hand with his left hand.
Derek sat up and said. "Okay, tell me about this inhibitor."
Liam wiped the tears from his face and turned back to look at Jason.
Jason understood, took a breath, and began to seriously report. 'Dr. Ben was also shocked to learn that you were infected with the S404 virus, but this inhibitor cannot cure the disease, it can only temporarily prevent the virus from continuing to spread and help your body recover in a short time. The effects of the drug can last up to a week. Doctor Ben is also preparing an antidote to destroy the S404 virus, but it will take a lot of time."
