Lauren’s P.O.V. (Continued)“Stay calm, Lauren. No matter how ruthless and formidable, they can’t do anything to you in broad daylight, and in the middle of the traffic.” Joyce comforted me, but I could sense trembling in her voice.“I am calm, Joyce. You stay calm. The traffic is dense, and we have a big car between us. So, they can’t reach me. Not in this state,” I comforted her back, my eyes still glued on the road.I lied to Joyce about the traffic, though.Now, the traffic was thinning, and I was sure that soon the car behind me would overtake, giving those ba*tards a good chance.“O…. okay,” Joyce muttered, and then the call went on hold. I waited for Joyce to connect the call again while driving steadily.When I got past, I increased the speed, and if the traffic turned dense, I decreased the speed, keeping the façade of ignorance in my driving.As I thought, the car behind me overtook as soon as it got the chance.“Ms. Shaw.” Parsley’s voice was the one that came out of the sp

Lauren’s P.O.V.“Aurelia Research Institute raised questions on our research topic, stating that this research is nothing but a way of mocking crippled people. They are messing with us, Lauren.” Lillith complained angrily.“Do we have any grudge against them?” I asked her while arranging documents for tomorrow's seminar.It was already late in night, but I wasn’t sleepy, and Vincent hadn’t come back yet.“That’s the problem, Lauren. We do research in different fields, and there is nothing common in our interests. They are also attending the seminar tomorrow, but as guests. You need to stay alert. They may ask you irrelevant questions.” She warned me, but I just smirked.I didn’t know why, but a name popped into my mind as soon as I heard Aurelia’s name.Aura9This was too much of a coincidence that two different organizations with almost the same name were standing against me.“Can you include Subject0 in your thesis to show them that we have a positive result?” she asked me cautiousl

Lauren’s P.O.V.“This blend of modern medicine and traditional medicine can open various new paths of developing techniques and medicines for patients with different neurological diseases. Although modern medicine excels in emergency stabilization, surgical precision, neuroimaging, and pharmaceutical regulation,” I paused and took a sharp breath before continuing in the same confident and calm voice.“But we also can’t deny the fact that the traditional therapeutic methods, such as controlled acupuncture, stimulation, neural pressure balancing, and so many other related methods, have shown significant supportive effects in long-term neurological rehabilitation.”The hall was fully packed with researchers, doctors, investors, and representatives from different medical organizations.My voice didn’t echo in the room, but it came clearly to everyone’s ears through the sound system all around the room.From where I was standing, I couldn’t see the expressions of everyone, but I can say th

Lauren’s P.O.V.“The topic of your research is challenging, Lauren. It will not be easy for you to get the approval from others, and you still can’t say if the experts of various branches of traditional medicine will agree to join you,” Dr. Lee spoke to me in a serious tone while walking in the corridor at a small pace.“What’s the excitement of conducting research if you get everything on a silver platter, Dr. Young?” I asked him teasingly and winked in the end.He was a bit shorter than I in height, but his experience showed on his face. His experienced eyes wrinkled lightly at my teasing.“You are still as naughty as you have always been.” He remarked teasingly, and I just grinned while bending my waist a little.“But seriously, Lauren. This topic is sensitive when it comes to human trials. You will not have a problem with proving this theory theoretically, but in trials, the patients will show hope in their eyes, and then it will become a problem,” he warned me with a serious expr

Lauren’s P.O.V. (Continued)I looked at Vincent and then back to Gabriel, who was now coming towards us.Now I understand the meaning of Vincent’s earlier statement.“You should have told me,” I muttered angrily, huffed, and moved back to the table.Suddenly, the food looked bland and tasteless.I was hungry, but Gabriel’s presence ruined my appetite.“He is really like a haunted ghost,” Vincent muttered while poking the steak on his plate with the fork.“So, you really are the lead researcher of Shaw Research Institute,” Gabriel commented calmly.“Yup,” I answered while jerking my head once and slowly looking in his direction again.“I told you yesterday outside the bureau, didn’t I?” I asked him while tilting my head a little.Gabriel had an expressionless face, but he smiled after I asked the question.“You are right. You told me.” He mumbled and then took a deep breath.“Can you please consider Celia’s case?” He asked me in a low and pleading voice.I sighed, feeling an immense he
