"Yes, that’s what Mr. North said." Aidan said with malicious pleasure, "If you’re sure you don’t want to join, I’ll reject it now."
Elias Hawthorne’s icy gaze swept over, "Since when do you think you can make decisions for me? Do you want to take the position of CEO of The Hawthorne Group instead?"
Aidan was so frightened he almost jumped up, shaking his head frantically, "No no no, there’s no need, really there’s no need,."
This young man, who hasn’t even had a girlfriend, is at an age to enjoy life. How disturbed would he have to be to take Elias Hawthorne’s position?
Is the position of CEO of The Hawthorne Group really something people want to do?
It’s really not, right?
Elias Hawthorne coldly snorted, pointed to the office door, and spat out two icy words from his thin lips: "Get out."
"Roger." Aidan bowed his head and skulked away cleanly and swiftly.
The Veridian Institute of Medicine, Meeting Room.
Wanda Woods watched as Raina North was sitting in a corner, completely excluded, and felt a bit of a headache, "Although everyone isn’t in the same research group, you’re all pharmacists at The Veridian Institute of Medicine, the closest of colleagues. By fighting internally , are you trying to make a joke for outsiders?"
Raina North was flipping through the medical books placed on the shelves beside her as if she hadn’t heard.
Aaron Warren laughed coldly, mockingly saying, "Working with this Barefoot Pharmacist really devalues us. Everyone has silently endured simply because of respect for you, Director Woods. You shouldn’t ask too much, after all, it hasn’t been easy for everyone."
Raina North chuckled softly, "Sorry, Director Woods, I truly can’t work peacefully with dogs. Forgive me, I’m wrong, how could I possibly insult dogs. Dogs are so adorable and sensible."
Aaron Warren was like a barrel of gunpowder lit up, exploding in anger, "Who are you calling a dog!"
Raina North didn’t look at him, "Director Woods, you see, mad dogs can’t understand people talk. The only way is to beat them into submission, so they lie obediently."
"Raina North!" For original chapters go to novel✦fire.net
"Alright, Aaron Warren, stop causing a scene. Raina North didn’t even say you. Why are you so agitated? Do you really think you’re a mad dog?"
"Director Woods!" Aaron Warren shouted, his face turning livid, his eyes crimson with a kind of explosive anger.
"Chief Warren, calm down."
Under Claire North’s gentle words, Aaron Warren gradually calmed down, but his gaze towards Raina North was still full of malice and ferocity.
"The reason for gathering you for a meeting today is simple. Yesterday, I had a call with the director, and he hopes that this time your research direction for the new drug will be cancer."
The researchers of Team One were in uproar. Everyone knew that anti-cancer drugs are a global challenge, and though they are confident, they don’t believe they will succeed in their research.
Wanda Woods disregarded the sudden reactions of the crowd and continued, "Whichever team wins will receive a million-dollar prize, honorary membership in the National Association of Traditional Medicine, and the opportunity to become an apprentice to Ghost Doctor Nowhere."
Their breathing suddenly became heavy, and Claire North’s eyes were filled with greed.
A million dollars she didn’t care about, but the honorary membership in the National Association of Traditional Medicine and the apprenticeship were what she truly yearned for.
Not just her, even her teacher, Master Zane, spoke with passion when mentioning Void and publicly expressed his desire to discuss medical techniques with Nowhere multiple times, but has never received a response.
