Adrian looked at Old Mrs. Blackwell's expression.
In the end, he said nothing.
“Please take care of your health.”
“You too.”
Selena had intended to accompany Adrian back to the estate.
But Mrs. Blackwell had stopped her to talk, so she hadn't been able to go.
Old Mrs. Blackwell looked remarkably well.
If she had taken Y-2, why had so many others experienced problems while she hadn't?
Could Isabel have done something?
“Selena?” Mrs. Blackwell asked with concern. “What’s wrong? You suddenly look so pale.”
Selena forced a smile. “I’m fine, just tired from the flight.”
“Then you should go back and rest. I’ll stay here.”
Selena shook her head. “Since Oliver calls me ‘Mama,’ this is my responsibility. I’ll stay with him. You should go home and rest, Mrs. Blackwell.”
“You’re such a good child.” Mrs. Blackwell picked up her purse. “I’ll come back tomorrow to relieve you.”
Selena saw Mrs. Blackwell off, and Adrian returned.
“I’ve arranged for someone to take you back to Halcyon Hills Residence.”
Selena refused. “Adrian, I want to stay with Oliver.”
Adrian had a separate room opened for her next door so she could rest.
Selena said casually, “Your grandmother looks to be in great spirits. When all those people had issues after taking Y-2, I was so worried about her. After all, I was so confident it could cure her. Sigh, I still have so much to learn.”
Adrian patted her shoulder. “Get some rest. Don’t think too much about it.”
The door closed.
Selena leaned against it, her face twisting into a mask of rage.
Isabel was undeniably brilliant.
She had known that from the moment they met.
