Chapter 147: Chapter 147 I’m Going to Find Her

Professor Parker quickly approached Lucas Shaw, sat by the bed, and placed his hand on Lucas’s pulse.

Although specializing in Western medicine, he was also versed in Chinese medicine, just not as expertly as Victor Bennett and Serena Summers.

The forearm Lucas showed was firm and sleek, with blue veins clearly visible beneath his skin.

Even in such hot summer, his wrist was slightly cool to the touch.

Professor Parker silently felt the pulse, his expression growing graver.

How could this be?

Both poisons in Lucas’s body had been detoxified, poison from maternal heritage wasn’t unusual.

Yet, Lucas had been injected with a gene-altering agent, a substance almost impossible to find in its original form domestically. How could Serena Summers, this young girl, easily find an antidote?

Junior Brother... Has your medical skills reached such heights?

Even your disciple has turned out so outstanding.

The more Professor Parker thought, the more terrified he became.

Liam Shaw’s heart tightened with worry and he asked, "Professor Parker, how is he?"

Regaining composure, Professor Parker faintly smiled, "Hahaha, the poison in his body has been almost completely cleared. With proper rest and recuperation, he will gradually recover."

Liam Shaw’s suspended heart dropped, and he too, cracked a faint smile.

"That is good, that is good!"

Brandon Reese also laughed, his tightly furrowed brow relaxing.

He approached the bed, overwhelmed with excitement, "Sir, did you hear? Professor Parker said the poison in your body has been thoroughly cleansed. No one will call you a short-lived ghost anymore."

Brandon had been through countless hardships with Lucas Shaw, without shedding a tear.

But at this moment, his eyes inevitably watered.

What a good person their sir is.

He had many times cursed the injustice of the heavens, but now, he only wanted to thank the heavens.

And thank the lady.

Thinking of Serena, Brandon’s smile stiffened, and the smile on his lips slowly disappeared.

Their sir’s poison being thoroughly cleansed was because the lady had given him the life-saving medicine.

Does that mean the lady might have...

The thought made Brandon’s heart sink.

He could think of it, and so naturally could Liam Shaw and Lucas Shaw.

Neither of them had any trace of joy on their faces.

Lucas Shaw’s fist slowly tightened, and the veins on his forehead bulged.

His dark eyes full of pain.

Serena...

"I need to find Serena." Lucas Shaw got out of bed and walked towards the door.

But after just a couple of steps, his legs suddenly gave way, and he violently fell to the floor.

A dull sound echoed in the quiet room.

Liam Shaw’s breath hitched, and he quickly helped Lucas up from the floor.

He couldn’t help but scold, "You can’t even walk now, where do you want to go? Lie back down, and I’ll go with you when you’re better, okay?"

"Big brother..." Lucas struggled, his dark eyes filled with vulnerability and obstinance.

Liam Shaw had never seen such a side of Lucas Shaw.

Since Lucas became an adult, he had almost never seen him in a vulnerable state.

Unable to bear looking into his eyes any longer, Liam could only gently pat his shoulder, helping him back to the bed.

"Sir, may I ask how the poison was cured? Was it Serena who cured it?" Professor Parker suddenly asked.

Lucas Shaw lowered his head, slowly nodded, and hummed in affirmation.

"It’s truly a medical miracle. By the way, where is Serena? Can I consult her about the specific detoxification steps?"

Professor Parker still didn’t know what was happening in the Shaw Family.

His mind was entirely occupied with how to quickly obtain the antidote sample from Serena Summers, he didn’t notice how tense the atmosphere in the room was.

Liam Shaw’s face looked terrible, he slowly said, "Professor Parker, I’m truly sorry, Serena has gone out."

"I see..." Professor Parker sighed with regret, "When Serena returns, you must call me."

"Okay, I will." Liam Shaw smiled and nodded in agreement.

Professor Parker then reexamined Lucas Shaw’s body to confirm that the poison had indeed been thoroughly cleared.

With Professor Parker’s assurance, a heavy stone fell from the hearts of Liam Shaw and Brandon Reese.

"Thank you, Professor Parker."

Professor Parker lamented helplessly, "No need to thank me. I have studied the poison in Second Master’s body for so many years with little progress, but who could have thought that Serena, so young, would have such a high attainment in medicine."

"Serena is indeed very smart." Liam Shaw agreed with a nod.

Professor Parker walked out of Lucas Shaw’s bedroom and ran into Nathaniel Hamilton, who was giving psychological consultation to Elena Ryan.

Nathaniel Hamilton was stunned for a moment, then smiled and walked up to greet Professor Parker, "Professor Parker, it’s been a long time. I didn’t expect to see you here today."

"Doctor Hamilton, long time no see. You came to..."

Nathaniel Hamilton chuckled lightly, explaining, "I came to give Mrs. Elena Ryan psychological consultation. Her mental condition hasn’t been very stable recently."

Professor Parker nodded in understanding and then left the Shaw Family with his medicine box.

After Professor Parker left, the room fell into silence.

Lucas Shaw sat on the bed, his hands clenched tightly into fists, his nails embedded in his flesh, seemingly without feeling.

He hung his head low, his thin lips slowly forming a bitter curve.

Guilt and pain were intertwined, almost completely consuming him.

"Big brother, why didn’t you stop her?"

Lucas Shaw’s voice was low and husky, filled with indescribable despair.

Liam Shaw clenched his teeth so tight, he couldn’t utter a word.

The image of Serena Summers fainting suddenly flashed through his mind.

The young girl who always liked to smile and squint, was unusually quiet that night, emanating an indescribable distance and coldness.

Especially in front of Elena Ryan.

He originally thought that Serena was behaving abnormally because she was worried about Lucas Shaw, but he never expected that she was actually enduring tremendous torment at the time.

What kind of willpower does it take to endure such pain and still remain silent?

Liam Shaw found it unimaginable and didn’t dare to think about it.

Lucas Shaw smiled bitterly, a heart-wrenching pain spread from his chest, he clutched his chest and coughed violently several times.

Liam Shaw’s eyes sharpened, he immediately rushed over, worriedly asking, "Lucas, are you okay? Serena said, you just woke up and it’s not good for your body to get too agitated."

Lucas Shaw waved his hand, suddenly feeling a surge of metallic sweetness in his throat.

Then, bright red blood spilled from the corner of his lips.

Lucas Shaw breathed heavily, the scenes before his eyes gradually blurring, tinged with a layer of bright red blood.

Everywhere he looked, there was vivid and glaring red.

"Serena..."

His lips parted and closed, but it was unclear what he was exactly saying.

Liam Shaw leaned closer, trying to hear what he was saying.

Finally, his body stiffened abruptly.

Lucas... was calling Serena Summers’s name.

Again and again.

Over and over.

Until finally, he completely lost consciousness.
