Spencer almost lost it right then and there.
He spun around, and his heart nearly stopped. The hallway outside was packed with people, all staring straight at him.
His mind went blank. This was it. He was finished.
“You… all of you…”
“Spencer, what are you doing here so late, sneaking around like this?” Vincent’s voice was sharp, his eyes full of suspicion.
Spencer hurried to hide the syringe behind his back. He forced a laugh, scrambling for any excuse. “Nothing. Seriously. I just came by to check if we still had enough medicine for everyone. You know how tight things are right now, with everything going on…”
His words faded, along with his confidence.
“If I’m right, you just injected the virus into the medicine supply. Tomorrow, when the patients with mild symptoms get their treatment, things will get way worse. Some of them might even die. Is that what you wanted?” Lydia’s glare was ice cold, her voice dripping with disgust.
Thank god everyone was wearing protective gear. Otherwise, the stuff in Spencer’s hand could have infected them all.
“You’re making this up. You’re trying to frame me!” Spencer snapped back, his voice shaking.
“Spencer, are you really going to keep lying?” Vincent’s voice cracked with anger. “We saw you. Every one of us saw what you did.”
“Vincent, come on, don’t lose your head. Don’t listen to her. She’s just trying to stir up trouble between us. You all know I’ve always looked out for you, right?”
Vincent’s eyes blazed. “Save it. You’re the one who spread the virus. The director, the professors, all those people… It’s because of you they’re gone. You’re a monster.”
“You should be rotting in hell! You belong with the people you killed. You’re nothing but a traitor.”
