Crowned by the Man They Feared (Amelia and Jeremy) novel Chapter 700

Amelia laughed too, and the gloom that had weighed on her since the Truman incident finally began to ease.

Walter watched the two of them and realized this was hardly a scolding anymore—they were already flirting through it.

He shook his head helplessly, caught between laughter and exasperation.

Ah, to be young—so full of energy, so full of love.

Seeing the warmth between them, the ache in Walter's chest gradually softened.

News of Truman's arrest and the long list of crimes he'd committed had already exploded across the media.

It quickly escalated into a major international headline that drew global attention.

The man's ambitions had been enormous—not only did he have accomplices domestically, but he'd also maintained secret partnerships with multinational corporations.

Based on the confessions from him and Esmond, the police followed the trail and uncovered a deeply hidden underground laboratory.

The horrifying details of gene-editing experiments and live human testing were exposed one by one, shocking the entire nation.

Murder, illegal operations, illicit transactions—he was facing at least 20 serious felony charges.

The internet had erupted, headlines flooding every platform, furious comments nearly overwhelming every screen.

[No wonder Mr. Nygard's death was never solved—turns out that old fox was behind it. That's terrifying!]

[So the man running the Jordans was actually this kind of monster? On TV, he always looked warm and approachable, and behind the scenes, he's actually…]

[What kind of experiment even changes someone's genes? What is this, trying to turn people into superheroes? Absolute insanity.]

[The mystery of Hendrick, the former head of the Currans, is finally solved. His disappearance and death were tied to these demons all along.]

[I'm just grateful I wasn't dragged into one of those experiments. Who knows how many people died in secret?]

According to official reports, the number of people Truman's team had abducted for experiments—or manipulated into volunteering—was still rising.

Shockingly, most of them had agreed willingly, dreaming of becoming superior to others overnight, of living comfortably without lifting a finger.

As if life ever handed out rewards that easily.

In the end, most of those victims paid the price for their own greed and laziness.

They suffered horrific side effects, followed by all kinds of bizarre and tragic deaths.

Some developed widespread skin necrosis, foul-smelling pus seeping from open sores. Others experienced rapid organ failure, their insides collapsing as if hollowed out by invisible hands.

Some fell into permanent comas, reduced to "living corpses" sustained only by machines.

And worst of all, some had their genetic sequences forcibly altered, their bodies mutating grotesquely, growing tissues no human should possess—trapped in unbearable pain with no escape in sight.
