Chapter 985:

Neil had initially sought Aelfric’s cooperation, drawn by his influential position as deputy chief instructor at

Doomsday Base. That role had held real weight, and Neil had seen value in an alliance. But now that Aelfric had

lost that standing, Neil felt no obligation to defer to him any longer.

It was tto lay his own groundwork and reach out to the mysterious figure who might offer a more promising

alliance.

Just then, Melinda emerged from the hospital room and called out, “Neil.”

Previously, Neil had gone out of his way to treat Melinda kindly, almost ingratiating himself, all in the nof

like royalty, a fact she had grown quite accustomed to. Neil's coolness, therefore, left her feeling particularly

uneasy.

Yet, aside from Neil's standoffishness, he hadn't actually said or done anything offensive, leaving Melinda

without grounds for complaint.

After a brief silence, she said, “Nothing specific. | just cout to look for Derek and happened to bump into

you.”

“Oh,” cNeil's flat response.

“If you don’t need anything, I'll be going.”

With that, Neil turned to leave.

“Neil,” Melinda called out quickly, stopping him.

“Has your family discussed any plans for mine and Derek's wedding?”
