All Chapters of Once Rejected, Now Desired. : Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

The next day, Helen was in her room that she shared with her roommates, studying her books ahead of the pharmacy exam they had the following week. It was past 2 p.m., and yet she had not had her bath nor eaten her breakfast since morning. Due to her plus-size figure, Helen was trying to lose weight. She busied herself studying for her project test and practical coming up the following week. Tasha Thompson returned from having her lunch and looked stunned to see Helen cuddled up on the bed, her books in her hands, and it was Saturday. "Damn it, Helen! How could you not leave this room for a whole day just because we have an examination and practical next week? Come on!" Tasha said as she strolled up to the bed to meet Helen. Her hands reached for the book that Helen had been studying, and she snatched it and shut it. "Tasha, give me back my book. I do not want to fail this exam," Helen said as she frowned at her best friend's behavior. "You are a beauty with brains, Helen. Obvious

By the time Helen was done packing a few of her clothes, she set the medicine in her bag and prepared to leave the room. Tasha arrived and seemed shocked to see Helen already prepared to leave the hostel. "Helen, where on earth are you rushing off to?" Tasha asked as she blocked Helen's path. "Tasha, I do not have time to explain to you. I have to hurry home now. It's urgent," Helen replied as she pushed past Tasha and dashed out of the room. "Fine. Call me when you get home and be careful out there," Tasha said as Helen hurried out. "Alright," Helen replied, and she made her way out of the hostel, carrying a black school bag on her shoulder. She wore a pair of black shoes and her blue dress. She walked out of the female hostel and made her way off the university grounds. As Helen continued trekking off the university grounds, Samuel spotted her; he had been searching for her. Though it was a bet, he couldn't help but want to speak with her. He called, "Helen!" Helen froze as sh

Samuel hesitated before he answered his mother's call. "Hello, Mom." "Samuel, how can you go behind your father's back to help the Roberts family? Your father has been trying to cripple that family for years, and now you succeeded in saving the Roberts' boss," Mrs. Stacey said, her voice calm but laced with annoyance. She was aware of all her husband's evil schemes that left the Kingston family on top of the pharmaceutical chart in their state and globally. "Mom, I had no idea what you and Dad are talking about. I didn't give out any potent drug to anyone, and I don't know who Mr. Roberts is. The last potent drug I made is still under practical and hasn't been distributed to the market," Samuel said as he answered the call in the room. John only looked at Samuel in shock, not knowing that Samuel was the secret genius that created the last potent drugs that were used to cure the paralyzed rats in the lab. Then why did the lecturers not announce Samuel? Was it because of his father's

Helen, who had just arrived at the same time as her brothers leaving, was shocked when she saw her two oldest brothers leaving the hospital with frosty auras. "Big brothers!" she called to their attention and wanted to rush over to them, but they looked at her like she was not their sister. They got into their cars and drove off, and Helen was shocked by how her two older brothers had reacted at the sight of her. They didn't even look sympathetic. They glared at her like she was the cause of her father's illness. "What's wrong with Dad? Why did Brother Paul and Zion glare at me like that?" Helen muttered, her voice tinged with confusion, but she had no idea. So she made her way and went into the hospital to find out what had happened to her father. Helen didn't even go to her father's house. She got the hospital address from her mother and came directly to the hospital after she left the university grounds. The university was a 1-hour drive to the hospital. So Helen had rushed ove

Helen's heart softened under her mother's warm embrace. She hadn't expected that her father would automatically recover and even be able to talk and move his hands and legs on his own—something that he had not been able to do before. "Helen, do you have anything to say to the media? What university do you study at? Is it the well-known renowned Avalon's University?" an interviewer asked, and Helen got to realize that it was because her father's company went bankrupt and it was announced on the news that he was owing hundreds of workers' salaries. Not just that, some other hospitals that he was supposed to supply his medicine to—he failed to meet up with the supply. But now that he had been miraculously cured, they hoped that Helen would take over Roberts Pharmaceutical and distribute the medicine to other hospitals with other stroke victims too. "Miss Helen! Can you shed more light on how you got this miraculous medicine? Who created it, and what ingredients were used to create it? W
