Chapter 351
Jefferson was used to waking to her smiling face and her morning greeting. He loved the breakfast she made and the gifts she gave to him. The man knew he could not bear to lose the trace of warmth she g ave to him.
In fact, he desperately wished that Frosa was the only place in the world so that they would live there fo rever and she would stay by his side for the rest of their lives.
Since Jeremy’s lab was located in the metropolitan area, it was not far from the hotel Rayna and Jeffer son stayed in. It was a six– minute drive to that mansion, and she nervously rang the doorbell after arriving there.
Soon, a blond man opened the door and warily looked at her.
“Who are you looking for?”
“Hello, I’m Mr. York’s friend,” Rayna said in Ferropenian. “I’m Rayna Garland, and I’m here for Ixora. Ha s Mr. York told you about this?”
The blond man then closed the door, seemingly having gone to make a call.
She patiently waited for his return. About a minute later, the door was opened again, and he invited her in. “I’ve called York for verification, but the thing you want will be troublesome to get.”
“What do you mean?”
Instead of answering her, the blond man brought her to the basement of the mansion.
It was a room with an area of two hundred square meters, and the place was filled with various kinds of equipment and experimental products. Around eight researchers, dressed in work attire, were walking around the workstations.
Rayna was stunned by the sight.
Putting aside the number of military supplies Jeremy could receive by researching medicine for Loang, the fact that Faymon Group had him meant that it had a po werful backup and needed not to worry about anything.
Rayna followed the blond man into a small lab. It was then she saw a few glass jars on the laboratory bench - one had a green plant inside. That was the plant they had fortunately managed to bring out of that villa ge in Tyrandas. After Jeremy and the researchers studied it, they named it Ixora.
“Is the liquid in this test tube Ixora too?” Rayna asked as she pointed at a green test tube.
The blond man inclined his head in acknowledgment before a look of passion appeared in his eyes. “Th at’s right! Our research is currently in its fourth stage, and we have yet to encounter any failures. We never thought the research would be this smooth sailing”
Hearing that, she turned back to the glass jars on the bench and curiously asked, “I remember rescuing six Ixoras back then, but there’s only one glass jar and four test tubes now.”
“York took one of the plants. He said he bought a piece of new equipment that would allow him to deco mpose Ixora faster, so he’s doing his experiment at his place to save the hassle of moving the equipme nt around.”
Rayna nodded. A moment of hesitation later, she asked, “Can you sell me one? The price doesn’t matt er.”
The blond man shook his head.
A wave of disappointment washed over her as she thought he was refusing her. After gritting her teeth, she said, “If it can’t be bought, tell me what you want instead. I’ll try my best to fulfill it.”

“You’re overthinking this, Ms. Garland, he replied and chuckled. “Since York sent you here, it means you’re a very important friend of his. You’re free to take whatever you want.”
“Then, why…”
“Ixora is still in its testing phase, so it might carry viruses we have yet to discover,” he explained. “We n eed to test it on living beings to determine its safety before giving it to you. The unknown viruses that some plants and animals carry might be highly contagious and transmissible via air. If viruses like these are widely spread across a city, they might ca use the deaths of millions of people. We cannot afford to take such a great risk.”
Rayna thought about how the villagers had been consuming Ixora and were even using it as an ingredi ent for their soup.
However, the raw plant was different from its liquidized form. Some kind of virus might make itself know n during the researchers‘ experiments.
After realizing that, she nodded at the blond man and said, “Sorry. I was too anxious. I wanted to use th is to save someone, so I never thought this far”
The blond man then stroked his chin and mulled over it. “The research on Ixora is in the last stage, whi ch will take ten days. Adding on the testing on living beings, it will take at least thirty days.”
“Okay. I can wait for thirty days.” As long as Ixora’s research was a success, Jefferson could be saved. Rayna sighed in relief at the thought of that. “I’ll have to trouble you to contact me when it’s done.”
“Will you be leaving Frosa?”
She shook her head. “No, we’ll be waiting for Ixora’s research to be completed. Moreover… he’s in ill h ealth. He can’t travel far.”
The blond man smiled and asked, “Seeing how anxious you are, I reckon he must be very important to you, right?”
“No, we’re just friends,” Rayna said after hesitating momentarily. She was doing that much for Jefferson to repay him for the care he had given to her. While she felt bad for him, she could not let him have a p lace in her heart.
Once he recovered a little, she was going to go back to keep Curtis company and apologize to him.
She had wronged him, after all.
Before Rayna left, she exchanged numbers with the blond man, who told her he would update her on any progress in Ixora’s research. On her way back, he r heart raced with excitement.
In the hotel, Jefferson had prepared lunch. When he heard the doorbell, he hurried over to open the door.
When he saw Rayna’s rosy cheeks, twinkling eyes, and grin, he smiled as though he was affected by he
“I found Jeremy’s lab!”
Jefferson froze.
Rayna was in the middle of taking off her coat and scarf, so she did not notice his tense expression. Wit told me the location of his lab. I took a trip there, and guess what I found out? The research on Ixora is in the last stage, so we only
The more she told Jefferson, the more excited she became. She then spun around and gripped his hand,

exclaiming, “In a month’s time, you’ll be healthy again! You’ll get another chance in life!”
At that point, Jefferson finally returned to his senses, but there was no hint of joy on his face. “Is that so?”
Fear had crept into his heart when he heard Rayna say those words. He desperately wished that Jerem
It was because Jefferson knew she would leave once he recovered.
However, he would rather die than have her leave him.
“Are you not happy?” Rayna asked, finally taking in his expression. “I’m sorry. I didn’t want to hide Mr. York’s call from
Jefferson shook his head and gave her a soft smile. “My heart aches for you because you’ve been going his lab.”
There, he paused, lifting his hand to run his fingers through her dark hair and her cheek.
Rayna stiffened, but the thought of his condition stopped her from pushing him away. Instead, she grasp said, “One month will soon pass. I’ll be right beside you.”
His blue eyes bored into hers, and he fearfully asked in a small voice, “Will you always? You won’t leave me once I recover, will you?”
