I suddenly stopped panicking and quietly found a corner to sit down in.When Zack Fenton noticed, the tension between his brows seemed to ease a little.Maybe he was relieved to see me being 'reasonable,' because he finally took the initiative to speak."Cheryl, shouldn't you thank Dr. Hemingway for lending you the lab to celebrate your birthday?"His student, Cheryl Smith, immediately curved her eyes into a sweet, obedient smile."Thank you, Ms. Hemingway!"Before she even finished speaking, she slipped her arm around Zack's naturally and affectionately."But the person I should thank most is Zack. He actually made my birthday wish come true!"The room instantly erupted into teasing and envious laughter from the other students."Mr. Fenton seriously spoils Cheryl. This lab is Ms. Hemingway's private territory. If it weren't for her birthday, how would any of us ever get in here?""Exactly! Cheryl is the first female student Mr. Fenton has personally accepted into the group i

I forced him to stay at the clinic and made him take his medicine and treatments every single day.At first, he resisted constantly. Then he slowly stopped fighting me. In the end, he even started helping sort the medicine and receive patients.Old Mr. Johnson from next door would often tease him about it."Kid, I saw Joanna kiss you that day. Shouldn't you take responsibility for her?"Zack's ears instantly turned red. His fingers tightened around the paper medicine packet, then slowly loosened, as though he wanted to say something.But Mrs. Johnson cut him off."Oh, forget it. Don't drag poor Joanna down with him. I heard his mother…"That was when I finally learned why Zack had tried to drown himself.His father had an affair during the marriage. After getting drunk one night, he beat Zack's mother to death. Once he was sent to prison, Zack was dumped at his uncle's house.However, how could his uncle possibly treat him well when it was Zack's father who had murdered his ow

"You're right, Cheryl. You really don't have a shred of humanity left."In the end, the meeting broke apart on bad terms.Back in the dean's office, I stubbornly insisted the paper was my original work. But Zack, determined to protect Cheryl, insisted just as firmly that I had plagiarized it.Caught between the two of us, the dean had no choice but to ask for earlier research records as proof.I rushed home and turned on my computer, only to be greeted by a blank screen.The entire hard drive had been wiped clean.Zack had done it.Meanwhile, Cheryl had already submitted a complete chain of evidence.A week later, the academic committee delivered its verdict.I was officially found guilty of plagiarism and publicly criticized across the university. At the same time, all my access to Lab C6 was suspended.The day after the disciplinary notice was issued, I returned to the lab to pack up my things.Suddenly, the door slammed open.Cheryl strode in with several students behind

I pulled the medical report I had carried with me for the past three years from my pocket and placed it in front of him."Your rare disease was diagnosed three years ago."Back then, I had already spent five years buried in the lab.For those five years, I had practically cut myself off from the world in order to save my father. I barely spoke to anyone. Barely interacted with anyone at all.At first, Zack had fully supported me.But little by little, that support turned into frustration.Then eventually, into constant arguments.I grew more exhausted by the day, asking myself the same question over and over again.If I failed to develop the drug that could save my father, only to lose my marriage in the process... would any of this have been worth it?Just when I was at my weakest, one of my colleagues told me something.Zack, who had never accepted students privately before, had suddenly made an exception for a female student with very average talent."Your husband is ridi

After a long silence, he finally lowered his head, utterly defeated, no longer able to meet my eyes.I continued quietly."I didn't give up on you because I was jealous. I gave up on you because you changed."The Zack I knew was stubborn, resilient, proud in his own way. He would never steal someone else's research paper, and he definitely wouldn't twist right and wrong."Do you remember the day we both got accepted into medical school? You told me you wanted to dedicate your life to medicine, to snatch people back from death itself."I looked straight into his eyes."You betrayed your own oath."Over the past three years, ever since Cheryl entered his life, he had never produced another serious research breakthrough.His laboratory had turned into Cheryl's personal party venue. People walked in and out without even bothering to disinfect properly.That was the part that disappointed me the most.Zack stayed silent for a very long time, so long that the sky outside the window
