"Please don't worry, I will do my best!" Sergio promised. "But I hope the First Lady advises the President to take it easy and not overwork."

Indeed, despite his condition, the President was still working. However, he was a positive person, so at least he had that going for him.

"Of course, I will do that, but for him, the country is more important than himself," the First Lady sighed.

"He really shouldn't be working. The work is endless, and right now, his body is the most important thing. Madam, you must continue to advise him, let him rest, and not let him exert himself too much," Elder Veronezzi also sighed.

For some reason, to Sergio's ears, Elder Veronezzi's words took on a different meaning: "Mr. President, you're already so sick, so don't cling to your position so stubbornly, give other people a chance to shine!" However, it seemed to have escaped the First Lady's ears as she nodded.

"Don't worry, I'll do my best to make him rest. Elder, you must be tired too; go home and

    "I've thought about all of this, but we can't let Sérgio take all of our responsibility. Risk, by definition, involves exposure to danger. I can't miss this good opportunity simply because of the risk. Besides, it applies to both sides. I can take advantage of this chance to get closer to the Veronezzi family, to understand them. Indeed, this was the perfect chance to get closer to the Veronezzi family. Liana could approach the Veronezzi family with a valid reason, or else they would have to wait for the Veronezzi family to strike, which wouldn't be a good idea. Therefore, they had to initiate the first strike to prevent accidents in the future. "Okay, go ahead, but please be careful," John advised. Liana nodded. "I will." Thus, it was decided that Liana still had to go to Makenzi, and Sérgio quickly obtained his answer—the First Lady agreed for Liana to come and help him. Before Liana departed, she fulfilled her promise to Dylan and brought him to see Edward White. Edward White was

    "Are you Liana? Sergio's assistant?" The woman looked at her coldly, and Liana nodded while still confused about the woman's identity. She seemed oddly familiar, as if she had known her from somewhere before. "Liana, we finally meet. The world is truly small for us to encounter each other under these circumstances." The woman chuckled coldly as she saw Liana nod. "Who exactly are you?" Liana asked calmly, unfazed by the woman's aggressive behavior. "Who am I? Maitê Veronezi!" The woman leaned in to whisper in her ear. "So, you're from the Veronezi family?" Liana asked, though her question sounded more like an affirmation, and the woman smiled. "That's right, I am a Veronezi, and I am the real sister of Maite Veronezi, surprised?" "Mariah Veronezi?" "It seems you did your homework; you even know my name." Mariah sarcastically laughed. Liana had memorized the Veronezi family tree when Maite Veronezi first appeared on the scene. The Veronezi family had three daughters; the eldest

    Após o physical examination, everyone left to not disturb the president's rest and work. They returned to the medical building to discuss the president's condition and recovery, and everyone gave their opinions once again, except for Liana. "Dr. Ramos, if you don't mind me asking, why do you keep that woman around as your assistant if she seems to know nothing?" Suddenly, Mariah looked at Liana and asked. The good atmosphere in the room immediately froze, and led by Mariah Veronezi's words, everyone turned to look at Liana, who was seated next to Sergio. Even though she was suddenly put in the spotlight, Liana maintained her calm demeanor. "Who spread the rumors that Miss Legrand knows nothing? She is someone I personally asked to help me; she is essential to my research," Sergio smiled politely. "Is that so? However, I still don't think she will be helpful in curing the president," Mariah Veronezi continued her verbal attack. It was clear to the people in the room that she was doi

    "Does that mean Mariah Veronezzi is really after me too?" Sergio asked in shock. He thought Mariah Veronezzi's aggression was only directed at Liana, and that he could protect Liana by maintaining a neutral stance, but in the end, he was in the same boat as her. How clueless he was. "She's after both of us, and she knows about your relationship with the White family, and now you've hired me as your assistant, so it doesn't matter if you can cure the president or not, they will be protected against you. To prevent any accidents, the best solution is to scare you and me away," Liana nodded. "That's why Mariah Veronezzi has been spreading rumors about you and putting pressure on us," Sergio finally realized the situation. "That's right," Liana's eyes gleamed. "But it's alright, no matter what tricks they use, it won't work." "Have you come up with a solution?" "No need for one," Liana smiled. "After all, a straight foot isn't afraid of a crooked shoe." "You're right, as long as we d

    "I think I can't stay any longer; I need to get back to work. Your uncle's condition is deteriorating, and I have a meeting with the other doctors to attend," Mariah Veronezzi said with difficulty. "Then I won't bother you anymore; I'll look for my aunt myself," Beatriz replied understandingly. She quickly left, and Mariah smiled as she watched Beatriz walk away. "Liana, let's see if you can weather this storm. You said I can't make the decision to force you out, well, I found someone who can!" The First Lady was infertile, so she kept Beatriz by her side all the time. In a way, Beatriz was as powerful as the president's daughter. The Delapena family, from which Beatriz came, was one of the founding families, so her power was immeasurable. This time, Liana stepped on Beatriz's toes, so tragedy would definitely befall her. An heiress like Beatriz, who was raised in luxury, couldn't stand people not bowing down to her. They had been blessed since birth, and as long as they didn't do

    She would use every opportunity to slander Liana. Whenever she saw Liana, she openly and loudly shouted that she was Mrs. Know-Nothing, making sarcastic comments that she was hiding malicious motives for being in the president's house. She spread unpleasant rumors about Liana, saying that she was a murderer, a fugitive convict, and all the bad things in the world. Due to her status, no one dared to stop her or confront her. No one went to tell the First Lady about her bullying. After all, who had the courage to do so? The First Lady would mildly reprimand Beatriz because, at the end of the day, they were family. In fact, she would probably have more issues with gossip. Besides, the Delapena and Ito families were not naïve... Now, she also had the Veronezzi family behind her. Beatriz was practically invincible. So when people saw how much Beatriz hated Liana, they no longer dared to associate themselves with Liana. Everyone gathered and isolated her; she got the worst seat during mee

    "What? Everyone was surprised when the words 'mechanical heart' were announced. What in the world is this thing? "The mechanical heart is the brilliant design of Dr. Sérgio Ramos, and its main objective is to assume the function of the human heart. And this is a computer-generated prototype that I made using Dr. Sérgio's ideas and design," Liana explained slowly and pressed the remote control again, and the screen changed. It was a mechanical heart where one could look at its internal structure. The heart was installed in the human body and beat like a real heart, and every time it did, the heart pumped blood throughout the human body. The screen showed in detail how the mechanical heart actually worked. Everyone was in awe when they saw this marvel of medical engineering, especially the doctors! It happened because they understood the hard work that went into this thing, and outsiders might not understand, but they knew how difficult it was to invent something like this. Not that

    "Madam, it's good that you believe in me because your trust is the only one I need." The First Lady understood what was left unsaid, turned around, and gave a sermon in the room. "From this moment on, no one can doubt Miss Liana's abilities anymore. Don't indulge in baseless rumors, and if you have time to do so, you might as well focus on your own research." "You're right, Madam." The embarrassed doctors smiled. "We misunderstood Miss Liana, but now that we know how capable she is, we won't doubt her in the future." "Miss Liana, you have proven your worth with this design, so why didn't you show it to us from the beginning? We could have avoided all the unnecessary drama." "That's right, Miss Liana, why didn't you show us your project earlier?" Liana didn't respond but turned to look at Mariah. The answer was obvious: she had to be protected by the Veronezi family! Mariah Veronezzi met her piercing gaze, and her heart raced. Had Liana noticed our plan? No matter what, she had to

    After Liana woke up, she was interrogated by the police, but since she couldn't remember anything, there was nothing she could answer. Fortunately, the hotel manager intervened to vouch for her. Later, the real killer of Veronica was arrested, so the police released her.He smiled and said, "It seems what they say is correct. The me in this second is different from the me in the last second. Changing the past is a very difficult thing to do because a large part of time and space will be distorted, and who is man to challenge the natural process of time and space?""You're right, but luckily, we managed to change the past," Liana nodded."No, we didn't change anything," Edward shook his head."We didn't?" Liana furrowed her brow; if they hadn't, how could he be so slow?As if he were reading her thoughts, Edward couldn't help but smile."But we changed the future.""What do you mean by that?""The man acknowledged our effort and was willing to give the world another 25 years, but we ch

    "He's escaping!" Edward hissed vehemently.He then leaped out of the window ledge and landed on the ground. This was the second floor, but he jumped without hesitation. Liana saw this and rushed down the stairs as fast as she could. Unfortunately, when she reached the ground floor, she could only see Edward's shadow fleeing.Liana used her top speed to catch up, and Edward was chasing the killer. The killer was running with Veronica on his back. He jumped into a car parked on the road, then threw Veronica inside and drove away.Edward almost caught up to the car but arrived a second too late. He could only watch as the car sped away."Get in!" Liana had already anticipated the killer's actions, so she had stopped a car at the side of the road, and Edward got into the car without hesitation."Chase that car in front of us!" Liana ordered the driver. The driver stepped on the gas pedal but asked uncertainly, "What are you planning?""Catch him, and this is all yours!" Edward, who was si

    After securing his room, Edward exited through the hotel's back door and headed towards Veronica's residence.Veronica didn't live far from the small hotel, but it would still take ten minutes to walk there. She resided in a dilapidated residential area. The surroundings consisted of old, abandoned three-story buildings. Most of them had broken windows and, looking from the outside, appeared completely dark and uninhabited.Only a few rooms had dim lights filtering from within. The streetlights in this residential area were all broken, and the place was dark. Occasionally, the hissing of cats from the overgrown bushes could be heard; it was the perfect setting for a horror movie.However, Liana wasn't afraid. Besides caution, there was no trace of fear on her face. She followed the address and inspected the buildings one by one, and after some effort, she finally found where Veronica was located.Liana was standing under the building, and when she looked up, she saw that the lights on

    "A girl from abroad, probably here to travel," replied the manager. "In that case, she'll definitely need a good tour guide." The man straightened his suit in an obvious manner and eagerly rushed out.The manager shook his head but didn't intervene. Women from out of town often fell prey to the town's men, and many of them considered themselves lucky to have experienced a foreign affair, when in reality, all these men were seasoned hunters, and their prizes were just women.If the girl didn't resist temptation, she would have a lot to lose. However, Carl wasn't concerned about the girl who had just left because she seemed entirely capable of taking care of herself.Liana walked for a while before realizing someone was following her. She saw a dark alley and entered it directly. The man behind her laughed cheerfully and quickened his pace.In the alley, Liana was soon cornered by the man. Initially, the man had intended to follow her for a while longer, but he knew this alley like the

    Armed with a curious heart, Liana entered this small, old-looking hotel. Sitting behind the antique counter was a middle-aged man tallying the accounts. He was thin, and though the shirt he wore was outdated, it was of a certain luxury, and there was a calculating glint in his eyes. Liana could tell, with just a glance, that he was the hotel manager.The manager saw her, and his gaze swiftly traversed her entire body. He then stood up with a smile to inquire."Accommodation?""Yes, give me your best room," Liana said as she handed him her temporary identity, as she had acquired temporary residence in the country and didn't need to carry her passport.The manager accepted her identity and studied it. He asked with a smile, "Where are you from? It says here that you're not from this country.""The United States," Liana replied in an emotionless tone. Normally, others wouldn't have pressed further, but the manager typed her information unhurriedly and continued to ask."Are you here to t

    "This is her," Lilith handed them a photo and introduced, "Her name is Veronica, and she lived in Darlin, here in the United States, and was murdered in a homicide case ten years ago, and the killer gruesomely dismembered her body, but they never found the body, and what you need to do is to find the killer or desecrate her body. I've also compiled all the information I could find about her, so you can take a look now."Lilith then opened her laptop to show the information about Veronica. Liana and Edward thought Veronica would have a complicated background, but to their surprise, she was a simple and ordinary woman, and the only noteworthy thing was that she was raped and gave birth to a child. However, her child was stolen from her, and she fell into depression, barely surviving on the streets.Nevertheless, misfortune did not leave her life.When she was 30, she was brutally murdered, and the case remains unsolved to this day. Nobody knew who the killer was or what the motive was.

    At that time, I foresaw something and chose to settle there. I conducted at least ten years of research and reached a bottleneck. Similarly, I was afraid that Walter Roberts would notice our scent, so I brought them with me when I left," Lilith recounted in a distant tone, and Liana and Edward still had difficulty understanding her, but they knew she was talking about Gabbe's parents.Unfortunately, they all perished during various experiments, news that caused Gabbe to withdraw for a long period of time. Only Lilith survived. Liana understood that her mother was not a coward. She also participated in these dangerous experiments and survived, probably due to luck and ability.However, they still hadn't achieved what she foresaw. Could it be the apocalypse? Liana asked the question, and Lilith nodded."Yes, I foresaw the apocalypse, and it will happen soon. But don't wo

    "What will make you stop?""I don't need anything," the man smiled indulgently."You must have something you desire," Lilith turned to look at him. "Tell me what it is, maybe I can fulfill your wish.""I'm honored to hear that from you. I'm glad I had this conversation with you today, and thank you for allowing me to be in the presence of the brightest person in the world," the man raised his eyebrow slightly.Lilith understood what he meant.He didn't need anything; he simply enjoyed talking to her.He was wrapping up the conversation, and no one would stop his plan, not even her.However, no matter how dark he was, he was still a man.If he were a man, he would be prone to regrets and ideals, and Lilith believed that he, as an individual, was more than just a rush to destroy the world.Lilith's calm eyes gazed into his, and her voice was low but sounded like heavenly music in his ears."Think carefully, what is still buried deep in your heart? Destroying the world is easy, but can y

    "You used the memory cells?" Lilith's gaze scanned her entire body, and she immediately realized the truth."You are definitely the brightest woman there is, I'm very impressed," the man clapped his hands together as he spoke."Do you need something from me?" Lilith wasn't surprised, nor did she show any visible reaction to his easy admission; she simply asked in a soft tone."Of course, I overheard everything just now. If you don't mind, I believe we can have an interesting conversation," the man said in a friendly tone."Okay," Lilith nodded, and the mysterious man smiled and extended his hand."Please!" Lilith followed him without hesitation. They entered another room, and the difference from Walter Roberts' room was that this one was larger and more luxurious. It was the chief secretary's office, and there was a photo of him on the desk. However, compared to the man in front of Lilith, the man in the photo appeared refined and exuded a kindness cultivated by age. The man before h
