Lauren’s P.O.V.“Manipulative b*tch. She really thinks that she is the smartest one in the whole world, huh?” Joyce cursed Celia angrily after I told her about Celia’s call and how she tried to manipulate Gabriel by using the divorce as a weapon against me.“I never curse anyone like this, but I wish that Celia rots all her life in that wheelchair. I mean.” She paused, gulping hard, shrinking her eyes in irritation and anger; her face turned red with anger.“Who the hell does she think she is, huh? Some kind of royalty that everyone has to bow their heads in front of her and serve her?”I smiled while listening to my friend’s rant.Celia was lucky enough that she never interacted with Joyce, or else she would have committed suicide a long time ago.“The good thing is that Gabriel refused to be manipulated by her,” I remarked, and she glared hard at me.“Now you are defending him, huh? Don’t forget that he still requested you to postpone your visit there for a week,” she scolded me whi

Caellum’s P.O.V.“I still don’t think that it’s the right time, Caellum. We are still far away from getting the identity of that person,” Vincent replied to me in a worried tone.“I know, Vincent, but Lauren was right when she said that for how long she has to endure our control over her life,” I replied to him calmly, looking outside from the window.“We aren’t controlling her life, Caellum. We are keeping her safe. This is different.” He defended, but it only brought a bitter smile to my lips.“She already knows more than us about that research and her connection with it, Vincent. From what are we keeping her away?” I asked her in the same way but couldn’t mask the bitterness.He didn’t answer immediately, but I didn’t mind his silence.“She needs to build up her world so that she can defend herself if we aren’t around her, and for that, she needs to come out and tell her that she is Lauren Shaw, the secret heiress of Shaw Empire,” I added calmly but sighed in the end.“Did you try

Lauren’s P.O.V.“I sent you the list of the patients that I marked for our trial. After finishing all the interview videos, I guess these patients are suitable for our research. Ask the team to talk these patients and their family members, and complete all the legal formalities in the next fifteen days.” I instructed Cheryl over the video call.“Okay, Lauren. I received a special recommendation letter from the military office just now.” she told me, and I knitted my brows.“I sent that to you. Take a look.” She added me and I immediately opened my mail.My heart skipped a beat when I saw that letter. It was really from the military office.Once again the government approached our lab.Is this a coincidence, or is someone working behind the scene now?“Don’t respond them for now, Cheryl. Let me go through the case first,” I instructed her calmly, masking my inner turmoil.“If….. if you ask me, we should decline this request.” She spoke softly. I raised my brows slightly, waiting for he

Lauren’s P.O.V. (Continued)“But keep it confidential, please.” He replied to that person, and after exchanging a few more words, he hung up.“Should I send you the details?” I asked him while sitting beside him on the couch.“Just his name and rank if they have sent that too,” he replied to me and started preparing a plate for me.I took a cushion and pressed it on my lap.“It won’t create trouble for you, right?” I asked him anxiously, and he smiled faintly but didn’t answer.Forget it. He is more than capable of dealing with such troubles.After all, he is also from an old-money family with deep roots in the city.They wouldn’t have survived this long if they had given up their fight against troubles.“So, Joyce is attending the gala with Caellum?” he asked me casually, and my eyes lit up.“I guess, finally, she is about to get what she desires all this time,” I replied happily.He chuckled and gave me the plate.I put that on the cushion and waited for him to take a plate for hims

Lauren’s P.O.V.“You are not looking well. Is everything okay?” Gabriel asked me worriedly when I met him outside the courthouse.“I am fine. It’s about my injuries, nothing major,” I replied to him casually, looking at my watch for the time.“Are you in a hurry?” he asked me, and I furrowed my brows.“Let…. Let’s get our certificate first, then I wish to talk to you,” he explained hurriedly.I knitted my brows in amusement.“I…. I am asking for taking the certificate first so that you won’t feel that I am using this certificate as a leverage on you,” he defended his statement.“If this is about helping you to treat Celia, then forget about it, Gabriel. I am not going to help her at any cost,” I cleared my stance once again.“And why is that?” he asked me softly.“Because I hate being threatened, and she did the very exact thing. Above all, I have my own reasons for treating you. And now I have no reason to treat her,” I explained briefly, a bit impatient about this drag of the impor
