Chapter 1259

He shook his head, "I’m okay."

His clean gaze focused on Chloe Collins. "I’ll wait for you in the car," he said.

Chloe thought about it, reluctant to pressure him, and nodded. "Alright, don’t wander off. If anything happens, call me."

Dean Collins nodded in agreement.

After the car door closed, he gradually relaxed but remained seated without moving.

Chloe kept looking back as she walked away, feeling somewhat uneasy, but she had an ulterior motive. She wanted him to spend some time outside, to adapt to the surroundings.

To grow, one must first endure adversity.

With this in mind, she resolutely walked away without looking back.

Inside the hall were Alexander Foster and Jerry River.

Alexander was dressed beautifully. Earlier, he attended a business cocktail party and it seemed that he hadn’t changed his clothes after.

The two men locked eyes and smiled in unison.

She sat down beside them.

Jerry saw her, and commented, "Finally, you’re here. You’re really slow!"

He took a sip of tea, hiding his true intentions. "I won’t waste time beating around the bush. I asked you to come here tonight because I want to negotiate a deal with you.

You probably know what I do for a living. That’s right. I am capable of advancing the development of the antidote significantly. Manie is an example. Her condition was much worse than it is now, but under my careful therapy, she doesn’t face any risk of death and it doesn’t really affect her daily life. "

"What are your demands?" Chloe asked in a clear voice.

Jerry lowered his gaze and smiled lightly. "Quite simple. Just cooperate with me on one thing, and after it’s done, I will quit my job here and go back with you. But when it comes to payment, you guys can’t give me less than what the Yorks offered."

Alexander was indifferent, "You don’t have to worry about the money."

Jerry, finding the conversation mostly complete, got straight to the point. "I am a hypnotist. My recent research requires two volunteers. I hope you both can cooperate with me and let me hypnotize you. It won’t take long—just one night."

Chloe’s eyes flickered slightly, her gaze deep as she turned to look at Alexander, he had a thoughtful look in his eyes.

"One night is too long. I can’t wait that long. At most, one hour," Chloe stated.

Jerry frowned. "That won’t work! The time won’t be long enough."

Chloe raised her lip corner, her inquisitive eyes staring directly at Jerry. "Mr. Bush, what exactly do you aim to achieve by hypnotising us? Be straightforward – it would be better for everyone involved."

"Because the both of you perfectly meet the requirements for my research. I won’t elaborate on the details. All I need is a simple answer from you two, would you agree or not?"

"Of course, we agree." Chloe responded with a slight smile, exuding an easy confidence.

She glanced at Alexander, hinting at him to watch the developments.

Alexander gave a slight nod, showing a tolerant look.

"I have a request."

Jerry, surprisingly not annoyed by her, asked, "What is it?"

"I have a friend still waiting outside for me. I don’t want him to wait too long. Could you arrange a guest room for him?"

"That’s no problem at all! Don’t worry!" Jerry is unruffled.

"I have a condition: no one is allowed to disturb him. Whatever his requirements are, you must meet them."

Jerry pondered for a second, then agreed, "No problem!"

Chloe nodded, took out her phone, and sent Dean Collins a text message summarizing the situation.

She wanted to take this opportunity to push him a bit and let him gradually embrace the outside world.

After a while, Dean Collins sent back a single word: "Okay."
