Chapter 787 The Missing Reagent
Hannah pouted but stopped making a fuss.
Jennifer who was easily embarrassed, left the store after trying on two pieces of clothing. When she shared a meal
with her friends after that, she sent Donald a picture but didn't mention her visit to the lingerie store, possibly
wanting to give him a surprise.
Meanwhile, it wasn't until the coast was clear that Donald emerged from the changing room.
The moment he stepped out, he ran into Jasmine, who happened to be tidying up the clothing racks.
“Mr. Campbell, what...”
Jasmine covered her mouth in surprise when she saw the sweat-drenched Donald.
“It isn't what it looks like. Whatever... Think what you will.”
Donald was too exhausted to even explain.

With her cheeks blushing intensely, anyone who saw her would get the wrong idea.
“I've made my choice. I'll take these three sets.”
“All right then, Ms. Nixon. You can settle the bill over here.”
Being a professional sales attendant, Jasmine continued to do her job despite the shock on her.
After she led the two to the cashier, Donald sneaked off to the underground parking with Hannah, making an effort
to avoid the restaurant Jennifer was eating at.
Upon getting into the car, he drove them to another mall that was thirty kilometers away.
Hannah ended up feeling amused over his antics.
“Why are you so scared? We're just friends having a meal together. So what if Jennifer sees us?”
Donald took a few deep breaths to calm down before explaining, “There's nothing wrong with sharing a meal, but
buying lingerie is a big taboo. Anyway, I've given in to you enough times already. This time, we'll do as I say. We're
going to this restaurant.”
Hannah merely shrugged in indifference.
Sitting in the front passenger seat, she suddenly asked Donald, “Do the words you said to me in the changing room
still count?”
Donald's heart skipped a beat. “What words?”
“You promised to do anything I tell you to.”
Donald fell silent at once.
How am I supposed to answer that? There's no right answer to such a loaded question.
Faced with Donald's reaction, Hannah let out a snigger. “I knew it. Men like you can't be relied on to keep your word,
but don't you worry. I'm well aware that Jennifer is the only one you care about. I won't get you to do anything
outrageous. That said, you've already made me a promise, so there are still a few things I'll need to trouble you
with.”

After humming in acknowledgment, Donald drove to the mall he had decided upon.
At that moment, he was no different from Hannah's personal chauffeur.
Unlike ordinary girls, Hannah wasn't a fan of Epean cuisine. Thus, Donald brought her to a restaurant that served
local food.
After ordering a few random dishes, Donald asked, “I'm sure you didn't come to Pollerton just to see me. Have you
been sent here on a mission?”
Hannah threw him an indifferent glance. “Even if that were true, what has it got anything to do with you? Isn't
Jennifer the only thing you care about right now?”
Donald let out a chuckle without commenting further.
There was no way he could reveal the reason for his question—his concern for Pollerton's security.
“Have you heard of the Reagent H-13?” Hannah asked abruptly.
Donald froze momentarily before a grim expression descended upon his face.
“Are you talking about the reagent researched by Lab 206 three years ago?”
Hannah nodded as she continued, “Research for the Reagent H-13 was completed, and it was close to production.
Unfortunately, everything related to it was stolen one week ago.”
