Evelyn's POV I couldn't sleep that night. Every time I closed my eyes I remembered Daniel Harper's words.Project Genesis. The name seemed familiar.Not because I had worked on it recently. Because it felt like something I had seen years ago and forgotten.This morning I arrived at the research center earlier than usual. Most of the lights were still off. The archives were quiet.Sebastian noticed me before I reached the records department. "You should rest.""I can't." He looked at my face."You're thinking about Daniel's words." "Yes. I've heard the name before."He reached into his pocket. Handed me an access card. "The historical archives are already unlocked.""You knew I was coming here." He smiled a little."I had a feeling." I smiled back. "Thank you."The archive room took up a floor beneath the laboratory. Dust covered rows of steel cabinets with decades of resear

Sebastian's POV I stared at the final name on Victor Hale's list long after everyone else had fallen silent. I wanted to believe it was another fabrication, but the evidence surrounding it refused to leave room for denial.Daniel Harper. For eight years, Daniel had been my closest security adviser.He had protected my family. He had built the company's security network.More than once, he had risked his own life to protect mine. If Victor had truly reached him, then no one inside Cross Biotech had ever been completely safe."Bring him in." The order left my mouth calmly."No one else is to know." Within thirty minutes, Daniel arrived at headquarters without any indication that he had become the subject of our investigation.He entered my office carrying his usual tablet, wearing the same composed expression he always had. "You wanted to see me?""I did." He sat across from me after I gestured toward the chair.The room was quiet except for the ra

Sebastian's POV The conference room remained silent after the flash drive was connected to the isolated computer. Every person inside stared at the monitor, waiting for the encrypted files to finish loading.No one spoke.The only sound came from the quiet tapping of the cybersecurity specialist's keyboard.Finally, the loading bar reached one hundred percent."I've decrypted the files."He opened the first document.Dozens of names immediately filled the screen.Each entry included an employee number, department, work location, and personal identification code.The detective standing beside me frowned."This isn't a client database.""No."I slowly stepped closer."It's an employee registry."The room grew noticeably colder.Every name belonged to someone working inside Cross Biotech.Researchers. Laboratory technicians. Security officers. Administrative staff.The list stretched across multiple branches.Some

Sudah ok Evelyn's POV The smell of smoke still lingered inside Laboratory Three even after the fire had been extinguished. Every damaged workstation reminded me that whoever was targeting us had stopped hiding in the shadows.They weren't interested in intimidation anymore.They wanted destruction.I stood beside one of the investigation tables while police officers sorted through the recovered evidence. Sebastian remained a few steps away, speaking with the lead detective, but I couldn't bring myself to look away from the damaged security logs displayed on the monitor.The access card used to disable the security system belonged to an employee who had died three months earlier.Someone had planned this carefully."Dr. Evelyn."One of the forensic analysts approached me with a folder."We've recovered the complete access records."I accepted the file and immediately began reading through eve

Sebastian's POV The explosion echoed through the emergency radio before the transmission went dead. For one brief second, the control room fell completely silent.Every pair of eyes turned toward me. No one needed to ask what my next order would be."Prepare the vehicles."I was already walking toward the exit."Notify the police and emergency response team. No one enters the laboratory until the area is secured.""Yes, Mr. Cross."The drive to Laboratory Three felt endless. The flashing lights of emergency vehicles became visible long before we reached the facility.Smoke drifted into the night sky. It wasn't a massive fire, but it was enough to tell me this hadn't been an accident.Firefighters had already extinguished the flames. Police officers surrounded the building with yellow tape.One of the commanders approached me immediately."Mr. Cross.""Report.""The explosion was contained inside one research wing."He handed m

Sebastian's POV The laboratory was different the morning Evelyn came back to work. Everything looked the same. It did not feel the same.I got to the laboratory an hour before everyone else. I checked every door every hallway and every security camera myself before I let the research team start their day.After what happened to Evelyn I could not just trust the security reports. I had to see everything for myself.When Evelyn finally walked into the laboratory everything stopped for a moment. Some of the researchers said hello to her. Others just smiled because they were relieved to see her.Evelyn was her calm self but I could see that she was still a little scared. She would hesitate for a second whenever a door closed behind her.She was still thinking about what happened in that warehouse.No one was mad at her about it.I walked up to her while she was looking at the day's schedule. She looked a little bet
