"Don't count on me—I need to see the patient first, and it might not work out," Nathalie Quinlan said, one hand tucked casually into her pocket, her demeanor unfettered and bold.
Her words were very straightforward.
"Pfft." Brian Bonette chuckled, actually relaxing a bit before he smiled and said, "Master Cadmus is at The Ninth Institute, I'll take you there first."
As he spoke, something seemed to occur to him, and he asked, "This is your first time going to The Ninth Institute, Nathalie?"
"Hm?" Nathalie Quinlan raised an eyebrow, her dark pupils turning toward him.
So did she look like she had been there before?
Had it not been for the need to treat this Master Cadmus they spoke of, she likely wouldn't have had to come even the first time.
Brian Bonette, gazing at her captivating eyes that seemed to speak, raised his hand to his forehead, and couldn't help but laugh softly, "I thought Amadeus had brought you here before."
