Sir Ares, Goodnight novel (Jay Ares and Rose)
Chapter 2226

Baby Zetty resentfully scoffed. "Your talents are useless. You inflicted suffering upon countless people. You're nothing but a degenerate who massacres the living. As for us, those from the Boyes' bloodline, the purpose of our skills is to cure diseases and save people. Our goals are different, and I'll not work hand in glove with someone wretched like you."

The living fossil's withered eyes looked fixedly at Baby Zetty. Her upright and awe-inspiring appearance somehow reminded him of his young self for some reason.

The living fossil said faintly, "It's so lovely to be so young. Back then, I was just as ambitious as you are and wanted to study medicine to save the world. But I ultimately gave up my original dream."

As he was speaking of this, the living fossil sighed sadly. "In order to save the people from that plague, m y mister had to develop a new type of drug. But no patients were willing to cooperate for this experiment, so I volunteered to be his guinea pig. At that time, I was still a passionate young man. Unfortunately, Mister's experiment failed and my mind underwent changes due to the drug's effects. I started feeling like being a healer was too unrewarding."

When Baby Zetty heard the tragic story, she could not help but feel a wave of pity and sympathy in her heart.

Although she hated the current living fossil, she still admired that boy who had a sincere heart. It would take quite a considerable amount of courage to be a guinea pig to save the lives of common people. Baby Zetty said, "You used to be a great healer. When confronted with such a disaster, you sacrificed yourself to help the people. I do admire that version of you, but now, you only have blood on your hands. You even forced a passionate youngster like me to experiment on myself by doing Bodily Disguise just so I could escape your evil clutches. When all is said and done, you've become the person you hated the most."

The living fossil looked at Baby Zetty indistinctively. He was struggling with his thoughts and hesitating at that moment.

"Although you're smart, Rozette, I'm still so much older than you. You're not a well-matched opponent for me in terms of medical skills." The living fossil's voice sounded as if it was coming from a tomb, making one feel as though their blood was running cold.

Baby Zetty was already scared witless from looking at the living fossil's demonic and old face. Upon hearing his voice that was filled with disdain for her, Baby Zetty's legs were going limp as well. "Rozette, if you can persuade me not to hurt you, you'll be the victor. I'll let you leave this place safely. Otherwise, you'll stay here as my slave forever."

Baby Zetty swallowed her saliva and pondered it for a while before saying, "When you were bullying those weak women, haven't you ever thought of the woman you loved so dearly and who had loved you as well? Imagine what sort of despair she must be feeling now?"

The living fossil smiled and said, "That woman? She's been dead for too long. I forgot what she looked like a long time ago."

Baby Zetty said, "You've forgotten because of how fickle you are when it comes to feelings. She might not have forgotten about you. Perhaps she's waiting for you somewhere in the afterlife. Day after day and year after year, she's suffering from the pain of loneliness. Yet here you are, one foot in the grave and still yearning for worldly affairs. Are you worthy of her?"

The living fossil seemed to see a young woman in a white wedding dress walking toward him while letting out a peal of clear laughter.

"I love you, Cindi Boye."

"My darling husband, I don't despise you for being poor, nor will I look down on you for not having fame. I believe that one day, you'll become the most famous doctor in the entire generation.

"My husband, when I die, bury me in the back mountain of our house. I want to look at you every single day and protect you."

Ultimately, he ended up being a wicked doctor.

The living fossil remembered now. After going through all kinds of suffering in his life, there was indeed a bright and beautiful young woman who once brought a ray of light to his life. It was a pity that they were only married for one year before she ultimately died of dystocia.
