Chapter 179 The Most Terrible Thing was not to Care about Anything
When Jessie left the room with a smile, Ken looked at the photos in the album alone and murmured: "What should I do, Cassie? Jasmine is so smart. She told me that she wanted to take good care of Daniel for Irene. Do you think I should help her?"
She was so clever that she asked him to let go of Daniel.
Although Ken knew that she had this idea, he felt warm in his heart. It was the first time for him to feel the warmth and happiness from his family for so many years.
Ken put down the album, placed the things in the room back to their original positions, closed the door and left.
When he just opened the door of the study, his phone rang.
"You bastard! Lawrence came to make a scene and asked me to let go of Daniel. Come and get rid of your people. If you don't come, I will shoot him. Don't blame me for not telling you."
Before Ken could say anything, the man on the other end of the phone quickly clicked the button to hang up. Ken shook his head and sighed, "Lawrence is really making a mess!" This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.

"Lawrence, what the hell do you want? I told you, I won't give you Daniel. You'd better give up." Said Joseph in a firm tone. He would not compromise to anyone.
In order to get this human weapon, he had spent eight years to study it, to find the most suitable candidate of the gene. It was not easy to find the best basic gene, Daniel. How could he let it go so easily?
On the other hand, it was unwise of him to give up his career just for a woman.
What's more, she was a woman who would only take advantage of him!
No matter what Joseph said, Lawrence swore to take Daniel away today. Since he had come, he had never thought about going back empty handed.
"Joseph, the gene organizations you want have been extracted. What's the use of keeping Daniel here?" He turned his eyes to Daniel, who was lying on the test bed like a dead man, and said, "Look at him. You have tortured him like a dead person. Do you think you can change him and make him into an immortal?"
"You think I can't?" Joseph sneered and asked.
He never cared about the process and only cared about the result when he did things. And he would never do something without absolute certainty. Since this thing had already begun, he would not give up halfway. No matter how many problems he encountered, he would face them.
Just like this human weapon, he had encountered countless problems in the recent years. No matter how serious the situation was, he never wanted to give up. As long as he could renovate one, there would be tens of thousands of them. Even if he didn't need them in the future, selling these "immortal men" would be a super profitable business.
He didn't care whether Daniel was living like a dead person at all!
It wouldn't be long before he would become the most useful 'person' in the world!
"Lawrence, don't think you can ask me to do anything just because of Ken. If you want Daniel, you can pay with your own life."
"What? Joseph, don't go too far." Lawrence lost his temper.
"Do I? But I don't think so." With a faint smile, Joseph walked up to Lawrence and lightly patted him on the cheek. He said arrogantly, "You're not qualified."
Looking at Joseph's arrogant smile, Lawrence gritted his teeth.
The moment he turned around, Lawrence took out his gun and pulled the trigger.
The sound of gunshot was deafening in this closed space.
"Lawrence!" Hearing the sound of the gun, Nita quickly ran over. When she saw that the gun fell to the ground, and the red blood dripped on the ground from Lawrence's arm, her heart ached while looking at the scarlet on the ground.
She turned around and took a look at Joseph, trying hard to suppress her heartache. She gently said, "I'll help you out. If you need anything, let's talk about it later."
Lawrence didn't want to leave at first, but Nita was threatening him with the pain while holding his arm. He had to compromise and leave with her.
The moment Lawrence left, Ken immediately arrived. Looking at the bloodstains on the ground that were not dried up, he frowned and asked, "What happened?"
"Just as you can see."
"You killed him?"
"No, I didn't. I just shot him. Joseph shrugged his shoulders and said with an expression that I didn't want to do that, "He wanted to shoot me first. I didn't start it. But don't worry. I just hit his arm, not his life. I have been very kind to him."
Ken looked at him and said nothing.
He knew that Lawrence wouldn't give up, but he didn't expect Lawrence to be so reckless. Although Joseph would show respect to Ken superficially, he had always been ruthless and merciless when it came to things. In his heart, there had never been a word of humanity.
He was the best representative of "cold blood animal". Because he did not care about anyone, even if his own father died, he did not feel the slightest sadness.
People were not terrible.
The most terrible thing was that he didn't care about anything.
Just as Joseph.
Ken had thought to talk with him about Daniel, but he didn't know how to start because of what Lawrence had done.
Lawrence wouldn't have taken out his gun if Joseph hadn't refused to release Daniel. Lawrence must had been driven to a certain extent.
As a matter of fact, what worried Ken was not whether he could save Daniel, but that Lawrence really cared about Jessie. If he was to take over the Crimson Dragon Society in the future, it would dangerous to let others know what he cared the most, including Jessie's life.
He sighed and turned to look at Daniel.
His face was as pale as paper, his eyes sunken, and his lips turned dark purple. His small and thin body had become weak like skeleton under the effect of the drug. All his black hair had fallen off, and the head which was usually the size of ordinary had doubled in size due to the sickness. The whole body looked extremely creepy and appalling.
He was only ten years old and Ken couldn't bear to see him being tortured like this. After saying "It's okay, I'm leaving." then he turned around and left.
Nita took Lawrence to dress his wound. The bullet neither stayed in his arm nor hit the bone, just pierced through the flesh. Seeing the bloody wound, Nita felt a sudden pain in her heart and her hand holding forceps trembled slightly.
"If you are afraid, just leave it there. I am not going to die anyway." Lawrence didn't care about it at all, which made Nita more furious.
"Lawrence, can you act like a man? Look what you look like now. You just couldn't help Jessie get Daniel out, and you didn't even care about your own life?"
Before Jessie appeared, Lawrence was an energetic and hopeful man. She was deeply attracted by his toughness and aggressiveness.
But she didn't expect that Lawrence would give up everything for a woman. Now he worried about Jessie so much that he even ignored his life just for saving Daniel.
He was totally different from the past him.
