Chapter 1316 The Race Against Time: A Battle For Sunton's Survival
- Dr. Laurent had emerged from his harrowing adventure in the Eagle Nation with Alexandre Montfort and Claire Wentworth, invigorated and determined. He threw himself into daily physical training, his spirit rejuvenated. But now, seeing Wensin, he felt a surge of animosity, as if fate had pitted them as adversaries. Yet Wensin, oblivious to Dr. Laurent's past, clung to him like a child, even joining in his exercises. Alexandre Montfort, observing this, chose not to intervene. After all, Claire Wentworth had messaged him, explaining that Wensin was valuable to her. If Claire deemed him useful, then he must be protected.
- In Sunton, at the research institute, Claire Wentworth had finally made a breakthrough. The moment the antidote was ready, she handed it to Buckley Fiorentino, posing a question that weighed on everyone's mind: "Should we save your sister-in-law first, or your nephew?" Buckley, without hesitation, chose his wife. Claire, ever supportive, gave him a thumbs-up and watched as he entered Pamela's ward.
- The injection was administered, and within minutes, Pamela's vital signs began to stabilize. The room held its breath, and then, relief washed over them as her condition normalized. Claire, wasting no time, prepared the second dose for the baby and then for Aqim. Buckley, ever vigilant, stayed by Aqim's side after the injection.
