NovelFinishChapter 740:
His curiosity hadn’t faded. Who had confronted his boss on the day the lab lost power? And who had managed to
hurt him? After all, even with the mafia all around, the man in front of him could still defeat anyone.
Verruckt, his face blank, said flatly, “Keep searching.”
His finger drummed lightly on the table. “It seems the most likely culprit is someone from inside. She's probably
not from Immortality Pharmaceuticals.”
Jareth nodded. The mystery of the woman was growing deeper.
“Where's Alice?” Verruckt asked out of the blue.
Jareth paused, momentarily caught off guard. He glanced at Allison's desk and realized that it was empty.
“She might be in the break room. | know she loves her coffee,” he said, though he had no real clue where Alice

Seeing his boss's cold expression, Jareth wondered if Alice had caused more trouble and possibly brought trouble

daydreaming, wondering if someone from the mafia might burst in here,” she explained.
Jareth sighed, still puzzled about why Verruckt had given her a house. She was so naive, so easy to fool.
“Of course not. The lab’s security system is top-notch.” He hardly ever explained things, but he added, “If
anyone tries to break in, the infrared system will slice them in half.”
“Will they really be cut in half?” Allison asked, her voice filled with worry. “What about—"
“Don’t worry. The system’s off switch is with Mr. Shaw. As long as you're with him, you'll be safe.”
