Chapter 968
Wiping away her tears, Conrad whispered in her ear, “It’s okay. He’ll be fine. He hasn’t done enough as your father
yet. So, before he completely compensates you, he’ll live.”
Fia shoved him aside and pouted. “I told you! I don’t care about him! Can you not assume anything?”

Conrad was speechless. He knew that she simply did not want to admit that she actually cared about her father
deep down in her heart. She was a good-hearted girl after all. After seeing her father saving her once, Fia had lost
most of her hatred for him.
“Let’s sit down and wait.”
Conrad pulled her to a chair nearby to sit down. It was then that Tiger arrived with the results. “Sir, Mr. Parker was
poisoned. There are two unknown components in the drug so we can’t produce an antidote.”
Fia asked anxiously, “Will this poison kill him?”
Tiger furrowed his brows and said, “It’s not deadly. Although Mr. Parker cannot move, he is still fully conscious. He
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtcan see and hear. However, if we can’t get rid of the poison in time, it’ll seep into his bone marrow…”
Although he did not finish his words, Conrad and Fia knew what he meant.
Fia asked, “How long will it take for it to reach his bone marrow?”
Tiger clenched his teeth and said in frustration, “Three days.”
Hearing this, Conrad hastily ordered him, “You have my permission to postpone every task you have at hand. Focus
on synthesizing the cure for Mr. Parker.”
Tiger said, “But sir… I don’t think I’m up to the task. We need to find Nightingale from the Hellish Training Camp. Or,
the help of his disciple…”
“Who is this Nightingale? Let’s contact him right away!” Fia urged.
Conrad, however, realized just how dire the situation was. Nightingale was one of the top three in the Hellish
Training Camp. He was ranked second and the most resourceful in synthesizing drugs. Rumor had it that his disciple
was even more skilful in creating poison. Nightingale’s mastery in drugs enabled him to treat and save countless
lives. But this also meant that he had murdered plenty of people too. After all, medicine and poison were the
opposite sides of a coin. The man was essentially a living legend; and like most living legends, he was not the
friendliest person on the planet. So it was not easy to get him to treat anyone. He only treated people who he felt
like treating at the time. Not only that, it was difficult to trace him down in such short notice.
Tiger said, “Madam, the top three in the camp usually hide their identities really well. They don’t even know the
others’ true identity,”
Fia frowned, “But don’t you all come from the Hellish Training Camp? Don’t you have a way to find them?”
“We can’t. Even our boss can’t find them.”
“Then how do you, Silas, and Sophia know one another?”
“We only serve Mr. Maxwell.”
“Wait, so does this mean that Nightingale has his own organization too? Then, let’s find people from his
organization. Surely we’ll find him that way, right?”
Something flashed in Fia’s eyes as she thought of someone.
Conrad too had thought about that person. He quickly ordered Tiger, “Get Peter Hall over. Have him check on
Conall Parker.”
Tiger said worriedly, “But it’s very likely that he’s the person who poisoned Mr. Parker. Are you sure you want him to
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmhelp?”
If they allowed Peter to go near Conall, he might just end his life right then and there!
Before Conrad was able to say anything, Fia butted in and said, “You tell him. As long as he can cure Mr. Parker, me
and Mr. Parker will agree with any of his terms!”
Tiger looked at Conrad. “What do you think, Sir?”
“Just do as she said.”
When Tiger descended to the ground floor via the lift, he saw Peter Hall step through the main.
entrance.
“Mr. Hall, Mr. and Mrs. Maxwell are looking for you.”
“I know.” Peter smirked, “I am here to see how pathetic that old geezer is right now.”
Tiger took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down. He was in the middle of a date with Sophia for God’s sake!
He had waited for this girl to finally reciprocate his feelings all his life! If it was true that it was Peter who poisoned
Conall, then he should really beat this jerk to a pulp for ruining his date!
“Mr. Hall, I suggest that you do not resort to extreme measures. The truth you know is not the real truth.”
“Save your breath if you want to scold me, lapdog!” Peter smirked as he walked into the
elevator.
Tiger followed him and pressed the button of the floor they were heading to. “Mr. Maxwell. said that he would agree
to any term you want if you could cure Mr. Parker.”
