Living With A Narcissistic Brother In-law

First Hospital

Underground basement.

Secret laboratory.

''Mr. Song, indeed… Miss Jun has the rare golden blood that is needed for this experiment. This is extremely rare and not everyone has it. How did you know that Miss Jun had such a blood group?''

''How did I know?'' Daniel chuckled as he looked at Natalie. She was lying unconscious in the stretcher with a lot of machines connected to her body. There was also a tube connected to her right wrist and blood was being transferred from her body into the container beside the bed.

Daniel smiled as he looked at Natalie. ''Her father and I started this together. To be more precise, her father started this first.

''A few months after she was born, she was not of good health so her father took her to different hospitals. After running several tests, he found out that she had the rare Rh null blood group. There aren't a lot of people in this world with it hence getting blood transfusion was going to be a problem in the future if she continued to be ill.

''Oswald Jun, he wanted to venture into science, get to know more about this blood group so that he could try to save his daughter's life. That was when we met. Someone recommended our Pharmaceutical Company, so we decided to do a joint research.

''But, the catch was to use his daughter. First of all, we were supposed to create a clone, someone with the exact same blood group so that we could use the clone for the tests and other research works.

At first, everything was going on well until we reached a point where the clone needed the exact same amount of blood that was in Natalie Jun. Her father couldn't afford to sacrifice his only child. But, we had started already and there was no way we could get someone with the golden blood to continue with the research.

He wanted to pull out.

I went to visit him one day, unannounced. He wasn't home so his wife innocently led me into the study. I started going through his books and that was when I came across another piece of information which he had been keeping from me.

Natalie Jun had traces of high intelligence. The kind that is on another level of being a genius. She had excellent memory, what we call 'hyper brain', high intellectual capacity. This was something new especially in a 4-year-old girl who hadn't started school yet.

A kid, just 4 years had high empathy, solitude, sense of self, curiosity, excellent body memory, adaptability and interpersonal skills. This was just too much in one kid. Oswald knew very well about his daughter's talents so he hid her from the world.

That amount of intelligence could have been shared with the world. He could have gained a lot of money from using that little girl but no. he wanted her all to himself. He hid a very precious piece of information from me''

Daniel thought back at the time he first went into Oswald's house. Solace was the one who had led him into the study room and went to attend to Natalie.

A few minutes later, Natalie had entered the study. She was just 4 years but her eyes looked deep, like they could read into the deepest thoughts of the human being. She was suspicious of Daniel even as a child.

Her gaze had been cold and distance the moment she entered the study room and saw Daniel going through her father's things. She had opened the door and told him to leave the study at that time and had scolded her mother for allowing a stranger into her father's study.

Daniel chuckled. ''Even as a kid, she was so capable. I asked myself, why did Oswald want to hide the girl from the world? If we could develop a clone out of her and then transferred some of her brains into the clone with the help of the system, we are going to develop. Then, even the clone would be 100 times more intelligent than her. Forget about artificial intelligence, this clone was going to have double of everything''

Daniel turned to look at the brain monitor, ''look at how her brains is still working even while she is unconscious. Oswald intentionally fed her with traditional medicine in attempts to weaken her IQ. He wanted her to have the intelligence of the average person but even with that, her brain is still fighting to recover all the things that is going on here''

Daniel turned to the research scientist, ''this kind of person. To the world, their existence is a cancer. We are going to help the world get rid of this cancer by using her to produce highly intelligent clones. We are going to use her rare blood to come out with a highly potent medicine that will make us number one in the world''

Oswald owes me this. That is why, this girl can only belong to me. If I allow her to spend more time with people, she will soon recognise her abilities.

As he spoke, he noticed the hand of Natalie quiver. He walked closer and touched her hair gently.

''Be good, Natalie. Be good''

Natalie opened her eyes and saw her own state. She was horrified but she couldn't move because her legs and hands were shackled on the metallic bed. She was pinned down by the machines connected to her brain and body.

''She is awake'' the researcher said with a smile, ''you are right. After opening her eyes, the monitor is already calculating her thoughts. Boss, her brain is going into overdrive. We cannot do anything if she suffers a relapse''

''Put her to sleep, then''

''Alright''

Natalie watched helplessly as the doctor poked her upper arm, injecting her with a substance she didn't know about. Soon, she felt dizzy and her eyes closed naturally.

….

Natalie opened her eyes and found herself in the dungeon again. This time around, Mimi Song was sitting across her. She was holding a bowl of boiled eggs. Natalie's stomach growled. She was obviously hungry.

''Hungry?'' Mimi mocked her. She lifted the bowl of eggs and frowned, ''I wanted to give you something heavy but my father said I should bring you just these eggs. He said if you eat anything heavy, later on it will be hard on you''

''You will have to make do with these eggs. Sorry!!'' Mimi threw the bowl at Natalie and laughed. She stood up and picked a bottle of water, ''thirsty? Open your mouth and drink then''

Natalie was thirsty. Her mouth was dry and she wanted something to moist her throat. Eating the boiled eggs without water, she was bound to choke to death.

Mimi opened the bottle of water and started pouring it on Natalie's face.

''Drink, are you not thirsty? Drink, elder sister'' she looked at the half empty bottle and chuckled. She placed it beside Natalie and walked out of the dungeon.

Alice's apartment.

Alice looked at the food in front of her and kept sighing. She didn't have the appetite to eat. All that occupied her mind was the thoughts of her sister.

''Alice, please eat something. You haven't taken anything since two days ago. Do you want to fall sick before finding your sister?'' Niania looked at Alice with a worried expression.

''My poor sister… I don't even know where she is. I don't even know how she is. I don't even know what she is going through. Niania, this is all my fault. If I hadn't forced her out, this wouldn't have happened'' Alice started weeping again.

''Alice, it's alright. Mr. Sun already promise you that he will find her. Let's have faith in him, mm?'' Niania hugged Alice.

….

Sun Family Mansion.

''Mr. Sun, we managed to trace the van that took her but we hit a dead end as the van was reported to be a stolen van. It was abandoned in the middle of the night''

''Just how are you doing your jobs, detective? My best friend is kidnapped and you can't even trace her whereabouts. I think I have to do this investigation myself''

''Thomas, don't rush. Let's allow the police to do their work'' Mrs. Regina spoke.

''Mom, it's obvious who is behind this. why can't they just question that family?''

''I'm sorry, Mr. Sun but when we went to question the Song family, they all had perfect alibis. Their whereabouts were already confirmed and there is nothing connecting them to this case. We cannot keep harassing them without proper evidence''

''Natalie, you better stay strong until I find you. I don't care how long this takes but I am not going to give up''

Five months later.

Sun Group.

CEO's office.

''Brother in law. I heard that the police want to close the case. What about my sister? Then, does that mean they won't be searching for her anymore?''

''Alice, even if the police give up. even if everyone gives up on this case, I will not. You shouldn't give up either. Natalie is not dead. she can't die just like that''

Alice sighed. She wiped the tears that were falling from her eyes.
