37 Chapter 37: Epilogue.

Pierre and Theodore carried out their plan and they promoted Pierre's dangerous drug. The drug did cure the dormant Hei Bai virus but it also caused half a million people to die worldwide from liver damages, and it caused another 50 million people to become infertile. Due to Pierre's and Theodore's grip of the world's governments, the information about the side effects never became public knowledge.

For the next two decades, Pierre kept coming up with evil schemes in his endless desire to increase his wealth. Justice reached Pierre in 2040 as Sabina Hines killed him when he was plotting to start a civil war in Mexico.

Likewise, Vladimir Kravchenko and James Winter fell victims to Sabina Hines' quest to stop the Monocle Conspiracy in 2040.

Biyu Sang emigrated to Switzerland and spent her life working a high-paying position with the World Bank. The bullet that went through her shoulder during the escape from China made her unable to use that arm. However, all in all, she led a happy life and raised a happy family.

Eileen Lu was very vengeful against her former enemies in the Columnist Party. During the trials for the Xuwan outbreak, she decided to execute every member of the previous national parliament. The trial led to the execution of over 2000 Columnist Party leaders, many of them innocent to Jing Xi's genocidal plans. The execution of the 2000 most prominent Chinese leaders crashed the Chinese economy. This was because many of them had a large amount of money hidden in overseas accounts. Eileen and the Chinese government could never find and access these monies.

Since Eileen's actions caused an economic collapse in China, her popularity crashed and a peaceful protest ousted her a few years later. Eileen went into exile overseas, and she married a Chinese businessman who died when she was 50. A few years later, she rekindled her flame with Jared and they stayed together until the end.

Jared Pond separated from Eileen Lu in 2022 as he realised that power had gone to her head and she had become the very evil that she had set out to stop. After leaving Eileen, Jared hunted down Greg Steel and brought him to justice for his involvement with Jing Xi. After bringing Greg to justice, Jared spent many years philandering, gambling and drinking. Finally, at the age of 60, Jared reconnected with Eileen who had been ousted from power, many years earlier. Once Eileen was not in a position of power, she turned into the same woman that Jared fell in love with. They stayed together until death did them apart, 20 years later.
