Revenge After Death



"Don't tell me this is another beautiful yet tragic love story?" Zion scratched his head.

I said, "A wealthy scion and Cinderella fell in love, yet they were broken up by his family. Cinderella went missing, and the wealthy scion went to study abroad. When he came back, he couldn't find her, and upon investigation, he realized that she had been abducted by human traffickers into Genome Society.

"In order to protect his loved one, the wealthy scion started to compete with his brother for the control of their family business. He then used his identity as the CEO of the Lincoln Group to donate money and resources to Genome Society, all just to ensure his loved one's well-being.

"Over time, he uncovered the truth behind Genome Society and learned that she had been killed. Despaired, he withdrew his sponsorship and joined the Rebels in planning for the fall of Genome Society as a form of revenge," I speculated, looking at Steven.

To anyone, it would have looked just like a love story. Just like how it was with Daisy and Miguel—a clone subject and a sickly CEO.

"If Daisy is a first-generation experimental subject, then Nancy and Daisy-as second-generation experimental subjects-should be at least 18 years apart in age. But Daisy seems to be aging a lot." In my mind, Daisy was Nancy's best friend and Michael's "mother". I naturally assumed that she was around the same age as Nancy and Miguel-or that their age gap wouldn't be too big.

I never expected Daisy to actually be younger. However, she looked much older than Nancy.

Was it because she wasn't maintaining herself well? Clearly, that wasn't the case.

"Daisy is probably a first-generation clone subject. The technology wasn't as refined and advanced back then, so the clone subject's physical age should be the same as the age of the experimental subject," Steven explained.

It was just like how Dolly the Sheep's bodily function was rapidly aging because her clone was based on an adult sheep.

"That's probably the reason why Genome Society prefers to use young people as experimental subjects," Steven said, looking at Zion. "But I don't think Andy is a lovestruck fool."

He couldn't help but feel some animosity whenever he mentioned Andy.

He refused to admit that he was his father-perhaps even finding it hard to accept the fact too.Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

Steven continued, "The fact that Andy agreed to have Genome Society send him a genome-edited baby meant he implicitly approved this technology.

"Besides, his investment wasn't entirely philanthropic he has equity stakes in the genome-editing laboratory. He would have a share of whatever Genome Society earned from this technology in the future, " he said indifferently.

It meant that Andy was in cahoots with Genome Society and had mutual interests before he betrayed and left them.

"There's a possibility for anything to happen to anyone. Perhaps your father really had his own reasons. Just like what you've said, he had to fight fire with fire to obtain Genome Society's trust."

I really couldn't think of why Andy would do that otherwise. What exactly was his relationship with Sarah? "Don't use a romantic mindset to figure out a businessman." Steven tapped my head.

I remained silent. Indeed, my theory might be too one-sided.

Steven said, "It's said that Andy chose to marry his wife and had a child for his family interest. But if you think about it, the Lincoln Group was already at the pinnacle of the Huma business world.

"No crisis happened after Andy took over. Instead, it grew stronger with the help of Genome Society's network. There was no reason for him to compromise with Ignatius if he really loved Sarah."

Other than his feelings toward Stephie, Steven did not believe in the existence of faithful love in this world. I parted my lips, unable to refute.

If Andy really loved Sarah, there should be no reason for him to get married and have children. He even accepted a genome-edited baby later on.
