Chapter 242 Heat
After saying goodbye to Cassie, Jack moved out of his house in his car and soon enough he reached Elma's mansion, and just as expected she was standing outside with a bag in her hand.
She got in the car and looked at him with an annoyed expression on her face. "I have been waiting for half an hour."
Jack looked at her and smiled. "Good morning." He said.
"Hmph." Elma snorted and crossed her arms in front of her chest.
"So where are we going?" Jack asked as he started his car and got on the road.
Elma took in a deep breath and after fiddling with the dashboard screen she put a map to a private location.
"That is the facility we need to go to." She said with her eyes narrowed and let out a sigh.
Jack nodded at her words and pressed the accelerator. The facility was not far away from Elma's mansion, it was only about fifty kilometres away.
"Jack we still have time." She suddenly said while looking at him when they had already travelled for about an hour.
Jack raised his brows at her words and then let out a breath, "Don't worry, everything will be fine." He said as he played one of his hands on her knee.
"It's something that you should worry about too," Elma said with a serious expression on her face.
"You don't have to worry even a bit, just trust me. I won't let anything happen to you." Jack said.
"I am not worrying about myself! I am worried about you!" Elma said with an annoyed expression.
Jack chuckled at her words. "You love me so much." He said.
"It's obvious!" Elma's face turned slightly red.
"Nothing will happen to me. After all, I want to stay with you too." Jack said with a smile on his face. His expressions were assuring.
Elma looked at him and took in a deep breath, she then nodded. "Ok, if you say so." She murmured and looked down.
Soon enough they reached in front of a big facility, with many chimnies. It looked more like a factory than a science lab.
"This place looks weird." The mechanical door opened automatically and soon their car entered the walls.
"Don't worry, I trust the people in here. And they won't even dare to do anything funny, after all, they don't want one of their top sponsors to die." Elma said with a proud expression on her face.
"You sponsor this place?" Jack asked with his brows raised.
"Hmm..." Elma nodded. "My father does." She said and soon both of them exited the car and a few people in black suits came in front of them with smiles on their faces.
One of the handsome guys came in front of Elma and nodded. "Madam, your rooms have been ready." He said and took the bags from their hands.
Both of them nodded and followed the black suit guy into the facility. n(-o-)V--E-)l)(b(-1--n
From inside it was big and filled with all sorts of of futuristic technologies. The black suit guy soon took them to their separate rooms.
"When will my operation begin?" Elma asked with her brows raised as she looked at the black suit guy.
"In two hours madam." He said with a smile. "Should we inform your father about this?" He asked in a gentle tone.
An angry expression appeared on Elma's face as she heard his words. "If Dad even got the whiff about all this then I will kill you all!" Elma said.
A troubled expression appeared on the guy's face. "I am sorry madam, we will keep this in mind." He apologised quickly.
"Hmm..." Elma nodded and entered her room.
Jack looked at the whole thing silently. He was slightly surprised by Elma's anger, however, he didn't give it too much thought and entered his room.
However just as he entered, a few knocks resounded on his door. A frown appeared on his face. "Who could it be at this time?" He thought and moved back to his door, he then opened it.
It was Elma, who was standing in front of him. "I want to stay here for the two hours." She said and entered his room.
A smile formed on Jack's face. "Why?" He asked.
"My room is bad." She said and sat on the plush sofa.
"Then, should we exchange rooms?" He asked, a teasing smile forming on his face.
Elma looked at him and rolled her eyes back. "Are you stupid?" She asked in a confused tone.
"You shouldn't talk to your lover like this," Jack said and closed the door, he then sat beside her on the sofa.
"Hmph! You act like a teenage lover all the time. It's obvious why I wanna stay in this room." She said.
Jack laughed and kissed her face. "You can stay here." He said.
Three days later...
Elma came out of the radiation chamber with a towel around her body. Jack was standing in front of her.
"How do you feel?" Jack came forward and was about to touch her shoulder.
"Sir, you shouldn't touch her!" The black suit guy said from behind.
Jack looked back at him with a frown on his face. "Why?" He asked.
"She has just excited the radiation chamber. Touching her could harm your body." The guy said with a worried expression.
"Jack, I think he is right," Elma said and moved away from him.
Jack listened to her and nodded, he then stepped sideways as he looked at Elma with a worried expression on his face.
"How long it would take before I can touch him?" Elma asked the black suit guy.
"It would be best if madam rest for ten hours. After that, all the harmful radiation must be gone from your body." The guy said with a slight bow.
"Ok," Elma nodded and looked at Jack.
"You were right." She said as she looked at Jack with a complicated expression on her face. She wanted to ask, how Jack knew beforehand that it would be a success, however, she knew that some things are better untold.
"I knew it," Jack said and looked at the guy. "When will my operation begin?" He asked.
"Everything is ready sir. We can begin it right now." The guy said.
Jack nodded at his words. "Then take me there."
The black suit guy smiled. "Follow me, sir." He said and then looked at Elma. "Madam you should rest in that special chamber for the next ten hours." He pointed at a metal door in the corner of the building.
Elma nodded at him and looked at Jack. "Take care." She said with a worried expression on her face.
"Don't worry, I will be fine," Jack said with a reassuring smile.
Elma nodded at her and then took in a deep breath, she then started moving towards the metallic door.
Jack looked at her departing back and then looked back at the black suit guy.
After that, both of them started moving through a long hallway. And soon enough they were in front of a small operation room covered with glasses all the side.
"Sir you should remove your clothes here." the guy said as she pointed at a wooden bucket.
Jack nodded and then looked at the white towel, he then removed his shirt and pants and placing the towel around his waist he removed his undies too.
"Come with me." Suddenly an old man with a white lab coat came in front of Jack and showed him the way to the operation room.
Jack gulped his saliva and moved with him.
Inside the operation room, there was a small bed.
"Lay there." The old man said.
Jack listened to him and laid down on the bed on his back.
Soon enough few more people came in white lab coats and inserted many tubes into his body.
Some in his hands, some in his stomach and even his legs were not spared.
"Start the anaesthetic first." The old man ordered.
One of the young guys nodded and flipped a small valve. And soon enough aesthetics with saline fluid started moving through Jack'subes and entered Jack's body.
'I feel drowsy.' This was the last thought before Jack lost consciousness.
Then the next time he opened his eyes he felt extreme heat and everything around him turned red.
He couldn't see anything, everything was sanguine and blood red. And the heat was extreme. He felt as if his body was in a giant oven.
He felt his skin burning and heat piercing deep in his body, he even felt his heart burning and blood boiling.
He felt like he was in hell.
"The patient has gained consciousness! Turn on the anaesthesia!"
One of the scientists yelled as veins popped on his head.
After a few seconds, Jack felt a cool sensation moving through his body. He felt his heat subsiding and his head turned heavy again.
Soon he lost consciousness again. He felt like he was in a dream state and he was seeing many strange illusions.
He felt like taking mushrooms.
