Chapter 655:
Whitney’s expression immediately turned cold, as though she couldn’t believe what she was hearing. Khloe gave a faint smile
and asked, “You’re a smart woman. If it meant giving...”
“Would you be willing to give up your career, or even your life, for love—more specifically, for a man?”
Whitney was taken aback. Clearly, she would never consider such a sacrifice. No one could demand such a steep price from her,
no matter their identity. Yet, this didn’t mean Khloe could refuse.
Khloe belonged to Henrik. In Whitney’s view, Khloe’s duty was to sacrifice everything for Henrik, if necessary. How else could
she prove herself worthy of him?
Whitney’s expression darkened; she looked distinctly displeased.
At that moment, Khloe realized that Whitney was losing patience. Just a slight nudge might force Whitney to expose her true
It might seem as though Whitney was orchestrating everything against Khloe and Henrik, but they were actively engaging with
her plans, turning the tables.
They both knew Whitney was orchestrating these events, yet they lacked concrete proof. All their suspicions remained
unconfirmed. Determined to gather more solid evidence, Khloe was ready to delve deeper into the situation.
Stepping into the lion’s den was a critical move in her strategy.
“Ms. Dayton, you didn’t answer my question. You wouldn’t make such a sacrifice yourself, would you?” Khloe asked with a light
chuckle. “If you can’t do it yourself, why expect me to?”
Whitney’s confidence wavered. She feigned composure as she replied, “You’re right. It’s unfair to ask of you what I wouldn’t do
myself. Let’s forget I ever mentioned it.”

Just then, the car pulled up in front of the Dayton family’s research facility.
The facility was perched atop a vast mountain range, dominating the entire summit. Entry required stringent identity verification
and multiple security checks.
Khloe noted the tight security. Failing even one checkpoint would trigger an alert, summoning the security team to investigate.
Once that happened, the Dayton family’s security would clamp down on anyone, irrespective of their status.
Khloe concealed her feelings and followed Whitney inside.
“Electronic devices must be left outside. Khloe, as a medical researcher, you understand the risks external contaminants could
pose,” Whitney said as she removed all her electronic devices and even her basic accessories, then looked at Khloe expectantly.
Khloe nodded in acknowledgment, understanding the protocol. She removed her electronic gadgets and accessories, placing
them securely outside the lab.
Once Whitney was sure Khloe had no means of outside communication, a flicker of coldness passed through her eyes as she
led Khloe deeper into the lab.
“This is where we conduct research on genetic diseases. The gene technology I shared with you previously was developed right
here.”
