Lazily Yours.

Chapter 576: Prepubescent Girl

"You have muscles but you are still too thin. You are a bit underweight. You look like a prepubescent girl."

Gabi clenched her teeth as she smiled at Luna, who keeps on telling her what she lacked. At this point, she could only smile as she cursed inwardly. She had sensed that this woman didn't like her the moment they met. By now, it had become very obvious.

However, Gabi couldn't understand the source of this menacing glare. She was sure that she haven't met this woman before. "Anyway, I understand this was because of the problem in your heart. Thinking about it, being born like this is already a miracle." Luna continued while looking at the result of the examination. "You should be grateful."

"I am grateful."

Luna lifted her gaze away from the computer. "Then refuse the treatment."

"Excuse me?"

"Don't you know? There is a possibility that you would die." Seeing her daze expression, Luna continued, "The reason why Chief Aden chose you is that of your age and body. But if you refuse his request, I am sure he would understand. We can easily find someone like you." Luna was smiling gently at her.

"Is that so?" Gabi smiled in response.

"Yes. There is no reason for you to agree. We don't really know the effects of the treatment, since this would be the first time that we would use it on a human being. You should be aware that Chief Aden was only nice to you because of your heart. He was interested when he read your file."

"Ah" Gabi nodded. "You think that was the reason why he approached me first?"

"Of course."

Gabi nodded again. She was the one who approached Aden first. Because of this small mistake, Gabi knew that Luna was only trying to get rid of her. "But sir Aden is quite forceful."

"Forceful?" Luna lifted an eyebrow. "What do you mean?"

"Hedidn't you know?"

"Know what?"

"He "Gabi lowered her gaze while biting her lower lip. On the outside, she looked like a pitiful child that was bullied. "Forget what I just said. I promised not to tell anyone about it."

"Hmph! Are you trying to tell me he actually bullied you into coming here? How could you say something like that to Chief Aden?"

"Ah? What are you talking about?"

"I can smell your lies. I know that Chief Aden would never do that. He would only accept volunteers."

Volunteers, huh. Gabi nodded.

"However, since the treatment didn't start yet, you can still leave. I am sure that Chief Aden wouldn't mind."

Gabi didn't say anything this time.

Why would Luna want her to leave? If she was really Aden's assistant, then she would want to see the result of the experiment, right?

She squinted and continued to listen as the woman tried to convince her to leave. Of course, she would occasionally nod and asked some random questions about this experiment. Gabi knew that the woman would try to exaggerate her answers to scare her so she believed nothing that she said.

"Are you done?"

The conversation was halted when Aden walked inside the room again.

"Yes, Chief. Here is the result." Luna gave Aden a tablet. She stood next to the man, but once she became too close, Aden took a step back, increasing the distance between them. The action was small, but Gabi noticed it.

"Hmmm, I already expected this." Aden looked at Gabi. "Let's go to the lab. Miss Luna, your job is done here. Please return to your office."

"But sir she is a woman."

"Hm?"

"I mean I volunteered to help her and assist you since I heard that she is a woman. She reminded me too much of my late little sister, so if it's alright, I would like to help you this time."

"How are you going to help me?"

"Ah?"

"You don't even know. Leave us." With that, Aden didn't spare Luna any glance as he walked towards Gabi. "Let's go."

"I thought this is your lab?" Gabi waved at Luna before she followed Aden out of the room. She didn't miss the fierce glare that Luna gave her in response.

"Not the main one. How are you feeling?"

"Alive?" She indeed had some problems in her heart, but it's not something to be worried about. She could walk and run with no problems. However, she couldn't overexert herself or she would faint. Earlier, all she did was take off her clothes and step inside the tube-like machine.

"So sarcastic. Keep it up."

"Hm?"

"I will give you the first dose of Nanoparticles today."

"Huh? I thought"

"Don't worry, it's harmless. I wouldn't give you something that would kill you."

Gabi lowered her head. "Is it painful?"

"Nothing like that." Aden stopped walking. "Would you trust me?"

"Isn't it weird that you would ask me that question now?"

He chuckled. "Right. Let's go." Aden used a series of codes and his fingerprint to open another room.

[Unknown individual detected.]

[Unknown individual detected.]

[Starting Security Protocol one.]

[Threat: None existent]

"" Gabi was speechless.

"Don't mind it. It would only analyze your skills compared to mine."

"" Wasn't that too harsh?

"Sit."

He gestured towards the chair. "You can change it into a bed if you are not comfortable." He added. "Take this."

"What is that?" Gabi eyed the vial.

"Something that would make you sleep."

"I thought it wouldn't hurt? Why would you want me to sleep?"

"You are scared of blood, no? I assumed you would be scared of needles. So sleep."

Gabi accepted the vial but didn't drink it. She stared at its colorless liquid as questions formed in her mind. What if this man wanted to kill her? Well isn't it too late for questions now?

She stared at him for a few seconds. "If you kill me I will come back and hunt you."

Surprise flashed in Aden's face before he started laughing. Did he find her words amusing? "I believe you," he said. "So I won't kill you. Sleep."

Seeing him turn towards the metal door, Gabi bit her lower lip. She hesitated for a few seconds before she finally decided to drink the liquid. Trusting this man was a gamble.

From the moment she was born, Gabi knew that she wasn't so lucky. She was born with a heart problem. Her body is as weak as her resolve in the past. However, the idea of curing her body is really tempting. She wanted to defend herself, she wanted to become strong.

She wanted to live a longer life and she wanted to give birth to Luca again.

It was a foolish thought. But once she is better, she could do more things.

So, she was gambling this time.

Of course, she had analyzed the situation before she came here. In the first place, Bobo Jewelry is really big. Their information wouldn't be lacking. Meaning, they could easily find someone in the same condition as her. If they really wanted to experiment on someone, why would they choose someone like her who is a member of the Ren Family?

Second, if they wanted to kill her, why not do it earlier when she was in that weird machine, naked and defenseless?

Third, this is her chance to get close to Archy.

While thinking about all this, Gabi slowly closed her eyes. Her breathing slowly fell into a calm rhythm. Then her consciousness left her.

Seeing this, Aden walked out of the door made of metal and stood next to her. His gaze was complicated before he started frowning.

How could she be too trusting? "Stupid woman," she muttered before he carried her in his arms. He then walked towards the metal door again.

..

Gabi woke up with a smile on her face.

She felt like she had slept for ten hours. Her body felt light and refreshed. She even had dreams. When was the last time that she slept

All of her thoughts faded when she noticed that she wasn't sleeping in her bed. It took her a couple of seconds to realize that she was still inside Aden's lab. She was comfortably sitting on the chair earlier. Was it done?

Her gaze landed on her arm. No needles marks? She didn't feel any pain either. She turned her head to her left and right. All she could see were various types of equipment, half of them she didn't recognize.

She slowly got up and immediately noticed the changes in her body. Was it lighter? Or... was she just hallucinating?

"Awake?"

She immediately turned her head towards the door where they came in earlier.

"Hey... how was it?" she asked.

"It's done."

"Without needle marks?" or pain? She started to doubt his words.

"Do you feel the changes in your body?"

"Hm?"

"I just give you something that would make you healthier. So you would be able to adapt once we put the particles inside you."

"And the process? You said there would be needles?"

"Ah... It should be behind your head, at the stem of your brain."
