Chapter 680: With that, their coordinated effort continued smoothly.

Allison huddled deeper into the shadowed gap, trying to appear inconspicuous.

She thought she could be stuck there for a while, but after only a few minutes, she heard the rhythmic cadence of footsteps outside.

Her pulse quickened.

The footsteps sounded sharp, almost imperious.

Whats happening out there? she whispered.

The boss is here.

Looks like hes doing a walk-through.

Immortality Pharmaceuticals bankrolled them, shielding them from outside interference.

It was a partnership they couldnt afford to upset.

Silence blanketed the room like a shroud.

Allison realized why Jareth wouldnt dare disclose todays events to Verruckt.

Bringing it up would only escalate the situation.

No one could predict the frightening choices Verruckt might make.

The chilling memory of Room 9, the horrible slaughterhouse, still lingered in everyones minds, and Jareth was determined to avoid becoming the next victim.

Breaking the tense silence, Verruckt spoke again.

Ive heard Immortality Pharmaceuticals is in turmoil.

Have they tracked down the researcher who vanished from Ontdale? .
