The Invisible Daughter (Yunice Saunders) novel Chapter 371

Chapter 371 Sealed Off

+8 Pearls

The person filming ducked into the tent, and when the camera tilted up again, Yunice jolted backward, the legs of her chair scraping lightly against the floor.

The shock hit her too hard.

Inside the tent were a few makeshift hospital beds, each with a simple IV stand. Some patients lay on the beds, while others, with no beds available, slumped weakly on the ground.

They all shared the same traits – barely moving, their stomachs shriveled and sunken, each inhale shallow, each exhale long.

Their eyes were vacant and lifeless. They looked like they were already half–dead.

Wyatt took his phone back from Yunice’s hand and turned off the video. “These are the current test subjects from the lab. Mortality rate, one hundred percent. If you still insist on going to the lab, I’ll shut the whole operation down and send everyone home.”

“No!” Yunice almost shouted.

Based on what she had just seen, Wellinges Pharma was undoubtedly the first company to secure these resources and prepare

for the threat,

They had to come up with a solution as quickly as possible. When the virus inevitably reached the country, not only could they minimize the national damage, but they could also maximize Wellinges Pharma’s credibility.

The lab couldn’t shut down. This research had to go on.

Wyatt used the entire research project as leverage, and Yunice had no choice but to back down.

Still, she was clearly unhappy. Her sour mood showed all over her face as she slumped into a chair, refusing to even look at Wyatt.

But sulking was pointless. Wyatt had no intention of letting her anywhere near the lab. “From this moment on, the top–floor passage is sealed. Laurie and the other lab members will stay inside full–time. Supplies will be airlifted onto the rooftop by helicopter until the project ends.”

He glanced sideways at Yunice, his tone final. “Even if you wanted to go up now, you couldn’t.”

Yunice was speechless.

No wonder he had called her to his office – it was all to get her out of the way so he could seal the lab.

The frustration burning inside her grew even worse.

Wyatt shifted his posture, resting his elbows on the desk, holding a pen in his hand like he was ready to have a serious talk.

Anyone familiar with him would know he rarely had this much patience.

–

Normally, if someone gave him attitude, he would either ignore them or throw them out of the room, chair and all.

But when it came to Yunice, he always forced himself to stay calm, no matter how irritable he was.

He said, “I’m short a personal assistant. Interested?”

Yunice answered, “No.”

She wasn’t cut out to be someone’s servant.
