Old Crow was very disappointed, couldn’t help but complain: "Since you’re in pharmaceuticals, why not make a bit more." That group made a whole big bottle.
"There’s no way, the medicinal materials are limited."
Raina swore she wasn’t trying to annoy Aaron Warren again, just stating facts.
After that mess, although she was able to freely gather various medicinal materials in the pharmacy department, the quantity was strictly limited by Aaron Warren.
And, a large amount is needed during the research phase. Discover more novels at novel(ꜰ)ire.net
This time the research could only succeed because she had been studying anti-cancer drugs for a long time, but the medicinal materials in hand were only enough to make one pill.
Upon hearing this, Old Crow was instantly furious, and the faces of the other senior colleagues were also not looking good, but they all held back from losing their temper and carefully divided the only pill into small portions and carefully put them away.
After it was done, they turned to look at Aaron Warren and Second Uncle Warren: "Let’s go, accompany us old folks for a good chat."
Even though Aaron Warren was always reckless, at this moment he felt a tingling sensation on his scalp.
Raina knew deep down that these seniors were causing trouble for Aaron Warren because of her, which truly made her feel great inside. After gloating for a while, she prepared to leave.
Just as she stepped away, she saw Elias Hawthorne striding towards her.
"Apothecary North, let’s go, let’s have a chat."
Raina was a bit surprised: "Didn’t we just have a talk? I don’t know what else President Hawthorne wants to discuss?"
Raina shook her head, honestly: "I don’t know."
"So, we need to talk."
Raina: "..." Was she being played?
Elias Hawthorne looked at Raina’s stunned little face, and his expression became inexplicably joyful.
Claire North watched the two leave together, almost gritting her silver teeth.
A team member approached to greet Claire North.
Claire North didn’t acknowledge it, suddenly stood up, and walked briskly out of the research room.
She walked a long way in haste before calming down.
She pulled out her phone to message Mrs. Hawthorne: "Aunt, I lost the competition this time, in front of Elias, I can never surpass my sister. It’s as if, by a twist of fate, since birth, my sister and I were switched, and even my marriage was taken away, I’m always second to my sister. Perhaps, that’s heaven’s design, and the best arrangement."
Mrs. Hawthorne saw the message, and her face sank.
Rhoda Kensington came in with a bouquet of vibrant roses, seeing Mrs. Hawthorne’s anger: "Aunt, who angered you?"
"It’s that Claire again, truly useless!" Mrs. Hawthorne’s anger was rising. She had spent a fortune buying the anti-cancer drug formula from a researcher, never expecting to lose this way.
Rhoda Kensington paused, comforting: "If she’s useless, then just ignore her. An outsider isn’t worth so much effort, Aunt."
"I did that for her as an outsider, wasn’t it for you? If she stands in the position of Elias’s wife, you have no hope!"
Rhoda Kensington looked somber: "That’s just my bad luck."
"Shut up!" Mrs. Hawthorne yelled.
Rhoda Kensington was stunned, frightened by Mrs. Hawthorne.
Mrs. Hawthorne did not comfort Rhoda Kensington, but instead looked at her seriously: "Rhoda, listen to me, there’s no one in this world luckier than you! Elias marrying you is his greatest fortune, understand?"
"But..." Rhoda Kensington’s eyes slowly reddened: "I don’t want Aunt to be so exhausted, you haven’t had a comfortable day in years."
