Chapter 296 The Spencer Family's Illegitimate Child

Chapter 297 Catching Mice

"What can you do to harm me?" Lachlan's voice was unusually calm, even somewhat pleased.

"Ms. Windsor, I want to make a deal with you. I know your grandmother's condition is special. Even if we use anti-radiation medication this time, she'll remain unconscious and her health will deteriorate further. How about we work together?"

"How do we work together?" Diana asked.

"Horizon Healthcare has a special neurological medication. This drug has been on the market for over ten years and can achieve a 98% cure rate. Combined with your acupuncture methods, I believe your grandmother will recover quickly. You should know that given her age, if she continues to be unconscious, she'll never wake up." Lachlan was extremely confident and even sent Diana the medication's instructions and usage information.

"The drugs I've developed all have excellent therapeutic effects, but this medication has special ingredients, so there are only three doses available per year. Actually, all three doses for this year have already been reserved, but I'm willing to give one dose to Ms. Windsor."

Diana only briefly glanced at the content in her email. "What do you want?"

Someone like Lachlan couldn't possibly give her the medication for free.

Sure enough, he said next: "I want all the Dawnveil Clover and Herbal Compendium you have, plus your acupuncture techniques. I heard your grandmother left behind a notebook."

Diana gripped her phone tightly but didn't speak.

The other party continued: "Declan is in my hands. He'll help me cultivate rare medicinal herbs on a large scale. I'll monopolize the entire industry and become the world's richest person. You can also wake your grandmother up and live a happy life. Isn't that good?"

Diana still didn't speak. The two remained silent like this.

After a full minute, Diana finally spoke in a hoarse voice: "Send a sample of the special medication first. I need to confirm the ingredients are fine before making the deal."

"No problem. The medication is already on its way to the Spencer family hospital. A delivery person will bring it directly to you." Lachlan said with a laugh. "It's really convenient in the country. The pickup code is 0981, remember to tell them. I promised him a $200 delivery fee, please pay it for me."

Diana hung up the phone, her teeth nearly grinding to dust.

Such an important medication, and he actually had a delivery person bring it?

What made her angriest was that Lachlan dared to be so certain she would cooperate.

Diana rushed to the hospital and actually received the medication from the delivery person, who even asked her for a five-star review.

Diana snorted coldly and walked straight toward the main entrance.

The hospital had a laboratory, but relatively speaking, Ethan's pharmaceutical factory was more professional.

Bruce drove at top speed while Diana received a call from Ethan. Nicholas had already woken up, but Thalia's condition wasn't looking good.

"But don't worry, I'll use the best medication to restore her to health." Ethan was clearly relieved as well.

"I'm going to your family's factory now. Find me a reliable lab technician. I need to test a medication." Diana's voice grew increasingly tense. "Also..."

"Someone's following us." Before Diana could finish, Bruce interrupted her. "That black sedan behind us has been following us the whole way."

Diana looked in the rearview mirror and indeed spotted a black sedan following at a distance.

Bruce had already turned several times, obviously going in circles, but they were still being followed.

"Ms. Windsor? Did something happen?" Ethan asked urgently on the phone.

Diana immediately said: "I'm heading to your factory right now. The cultivation bases for Dawnveil Clover and Golden Dandelion are also in the lab, right?"

"Yes."

"Good. My people need temporary access to the surveillance system. Please authorize it." Diana hung up the phone, her expression extremely serious. "Bruce, stop going in circles. Go straight to the factory."

She had already contacted Clio. Since they wanted to follow, let them follow.

She didn't believe anyone in Stardust City could really do anything to them!

Half an hour later, they arrived at the factory.

Diana deliberately lingered at the entrance for a while, asking for the location of the laboratory before entering the factory.

She believed that if those people wanted to track them, they would surely find a way to enter the factory.

Clio had already installed an anti-tracking system. As soon as they appeared in the factory, they would be locked onto immediately.

Diana had just arrived at the laboratory when Ethan rushed over.

He was running and sweating profusely, constantly looking behind him. "Is someone following you? The guard said someone suddenly came to make a delivery today, but there's no record of it in the system. What's going on?"

"Don't worry, my people will monitor it." Diana handed him the medication. "Since you're back, check the ingredients first. If I give this to my grandmother, will there be any problems?"

"This?" Ethan's eyes widened in disbelief. "Do you know this neurological medication only has three doses available per year? Where did you get this?"

"Go ahead." Diana patted his shoulder, looking unwilling to say more.

Seeing this, Ethan could only nod. "Alright, I understand. You should go to the hospital to see Nicholas first."

"I'm going to check the Dawnveil Clover cultivation base." Diana turned directly and went to the cultivation room opposite the laboratory.

Entering the lab, Diana called Clio. "Can you see me?"

"Very clearly, Boss. The lab has several hidden fixed cameras. Help me adjust their positions."

"Okay."

After Diana checked all the cameras, she asked again: "Is there a way to directly hack into their phones? I want to track their location."

"Yes, put your phone in a hidden spot. As long as they're within three feet, their phones can be infected with a virus, but it takes one minute." Clio said.

Diana smiled and took out her phone. "That's enough."

She then placed the phone in a box under the Dawnveil Clover incubator.

After another hour or so, Ethan walked out of the lab with a heavy expression. "Ms. Windsor, I'm afraid this medication can't be used on your grandmother."

"Is it poisonous?"

Ethan shook his head. "The medication itself isn't toxic, but one of its ingredients conflicts with Golden Dandelion. If used, it will affect cardiovascular and cerebrovascular function. Actually, if the patient were younger, it wouldn't be a big problem."

But Thalia was old and in poor health. She couldn't withstand such an impact.

Diana's expression turned cold. "He did it on purpose."

"Who?" Ethan asked curiously.

Diana didn't answer, but she already understood Lachlan's intention.

If she hadn't come to the factory to check the ingredients and had used the medication blindly, Thalia might have fallen into a deep coma.

With Diana's current means, there would be no way to wake Thalia up, and Diana would be forced by Lachlan's special medication to cooperate with him.

At that point, she would have no other choice.

Diana laughed coldly. "What a scheme! Bruce, let's go."

She picked up the medication directly. Ethan immediately stopped her. "Ms. Windsor, listen to me, this can't be used casually."

Diana nodded. "I understand. Let the factory relax its guard today. Only by letting the rats in will we have a chance to catch them."
