Semua Bab Love in Twilight: Bab 1421 - Bab 1430

Annie was born and raised in Genovia. She came from a middle-class family, and her parents had done everything they could to allow her to study in Emmeria. A few months back, she had returned to Genovia and joined Beryl Laboratory. She was her parents’ pride and joy—to them, her achievements were the stuff of fairy tales, and they sang her praises to everyone they knew. Unbeknownst to them, there was someone equally outstanding as her—Cassandra, whom she had met in Emmeria.They’d secretly competed against each other since their first meeting, but none of them had spoken about it before. This changed when Cassandra discovered Annie had stolen the dissertation she had put her heart and soul into—Annie hadn’t admitted to it, though. She insisted they just had the same idea.Cassandra followed Annie all the way back to Genovia, refusing to let the matter slide.She threw herself into her research; Annie was no different. Thanks to their hard work, less than two months later, Beryl Labo

After hanging up, Ned thought, ‘How dare Cassandra give Joshua something that hasn’t been clinically tested! Is she using him as a lab rat or something?’He tapped his fingers on the sofa’s armrest. He had to find a chance to visit the factory and warn Cassandra.Ned called the factory’s manager and made an appointment for a visit.…Bolton Pharmaceutical.Today, Caleb and Sheila came to the factory for a site visit at Beryl Laboratory, which was the factory’s core. It was the heart of the factory’s operations.As the leader of the rhinitis medication research team, Annie gave the shareholders a presentation on the Walt reagent’s quality and effects on rhinitis. It promised to cure rhinitis and stop it from plaguing the patient again.Caleb kept nodding in agreement.Sheila couldn’t help feeling jealous of Annie—she was so capable at such a young age. When she was Annie’s age, she was nothing but a rich kid who leached off her parents.Developing a reagent to cure rhinitis was

Cassandra's family was very wealthy. Although her elder brother had been sent to prison, which was Cassandra's doing, Annie still couldn't compare to how rich Cassandra's family was. Besides, Cassandra had a close relationship with one of the investors, Caleb. It seemed Caleb had even introduced Cassandra to his son, who was the sales representative of Bolton Pharmaceutical.And now, was Cassandra dating Ned Lawrence! Did they know each other?Why did Cassandra get everything that was good in life? Why did it seem like she knew every big shot there was?The thought of it infuriated Annie....When Ned arrived outside the lab doors, he took off his lab coat and walked to the parking lot. Cassandra followed behind him, wondering what he wanted from her.When they came to a Rolls Royce, Ned took out a beautiful Hermes box from the car's back seat and handed it to Cassandra. Having done that, he didn't leave. He simply leaned back against the car and lit a cigarette, looking like he

"You just won't leave me alone, will you, Cassandra?" Annie huffed. "What will it take for you to quit?""You started it back at Emmeria when you copied my thesis," Cassandra said in a relaxed manner. "It's not impossible for me to withdraw. First, you can't have a relationship with Ned. It's best not to talk to him at all. Second, you'll be at my beck and call. If I call, you come.""You must be joking! Do you think I'm your slave?" Annie said defiantly."If you don't want to listen, that's fine. I'll be going to Mylar, then.""Fine!" Annie would agree to anything if it got her out of traveling with Cassandra, provided the other woman didn't go too far with her demands, of course."Obviously, it wouldn't make sense to make you my slave for the rest of your life. Let's keep it for a week," Cassandra said.Cassandra figured that something should happen this week, and Sheila would very likely call her out for dinner. There were a lot of things she wanted to say but it would be diff

As expected, Cassandra coughed and almost choked before saying, "Don't talk nonsense."Perhaps because she was in a hurry to speak, Cassandra unconsciously reverted to speaking in the dialect she used back in her hometown. "But I'm not!" Annie replied in the same dialect, speaking quite fluently. Sheila couldn't understand what the two girls were saying, but she assumed they were discussing Ned's performance in bed privately so that the McKenny family wouldn't know what they were talking about.Sheila felt like she had fed a meal to dogs... It was all in vain!Caleb furrowed his brows deeply and said, "You all go ahead and continue eating. I'll head upstairs first."Caleb felt embarrassed. It had been so many years, and never once had he felt different when it came to the Lawrence family.Roger was sorely tempted to go upstairs. However, he thought doing so would embarrass the two ladies, so he resolutely sat through the uncomfortable dinner.Once dinner was over, the two lad
