Chapter 1005:
“I bumped into Jules at the research institute today. Turns out, they're running a top-secret experiment that even
our people can’t access.” Nate had convinced Jayden to accept his relationship with Corrine by setting up a lab in
partnership with government agencies. The lab housed not only top-tier personnel from various research
institutes but also Nate's own expert team.
In the past, expert teams and researchers would freely share their findings, but the Ford family had always been
tight-lipped, clearly unwilling to let certain information slip.
“Also, another group arrived at the institute tonight. Eaton’s handling the liaison,” Zack said. “About an hour ago,
we got word that Jayden has set up a research group in partnership with resources from ten major states.”
When Nate and Jayden first struck a deal, Jayden had immediately requested Nate's research team. Now, with
such a large-scale setup, Nate couldn't help but wonder—what exactly was Jayden planning?
Nate furrowed his brows slightly, his eyes growing dark and unreadable, like a cold, endless pool. “Have you
found anything about what | asked you to look into?”

even trickier than before. Out of ten words, you can barely trust one or two.” Not even threats or pressure
seemed to work on him. Clearly, with someone backing him now, Eaton’s confidence had soared.
Nate said with a sharp tone, “Don’t forget Eaton's original specialty.” Zack's eyes narrowed as he processed the
words. “You think the Ford family is using Eaton to create poisons?”
Nate adjusted his tie, his voice turning icy. “As a well-known chemist from the Independent Continent, he’s
capable of making both poisons and antidotes.”
After the call ended, Nate instructed Saul to drive to the research institute without delay.
Corrine walked into the house to find Carl sitting on the sofa. Her heart skipped a beat, and she instinctively
looked at Jules. When she saw him shrug with a resigned look, an uneasy feeling crept into her. Had that traitor
Jules sold her out?
As she was lost in thought, Carl broke the silence.
“Where did you go at this hour?” Carl’s voice was low but authoritative. Even in his later years, the former
business mogul still commanded the spowerful presence he had in his prime.
Upon hearing his words, Corrine felt a wave of relief wash over her. She had been worried that he had found out
about her secret trip with Nate.

Taking a deep breath to steady herself, she smiled and said, “Nowhere important. Just went for a walk to
unwind.”
