Sacred Virtues Hospital did have a reputation at the moment. However, they had gained their reputation by 'selling blood'.“Selling blood” meant that they were tossing money into charities to provide free medical care for underprivileged patients.It was fine to do something like that short-term but certainly not in the long run. No amount of money could be enough for that.Therefore, Javier had been asking Oliver to watch out for research teams in the industry so that they could come up with unique drugs or surgeries.That way, they could use their exclusive technology to attract numerous patients and make money through their medical expenses so that they could subsidize medical treatments for patients who needed free treatments. Consequently, it would form an excellent and positive symbiotic chain.However, it was challenging to find a research team like that. They could not just find a random team. The products of their research needed to be effective, and the team would also n
Logically speaking, Javier was more handsome, but different people had different preferences, so it was difficult to tell.One could only say that love was blind when Alyssa seemed to be attracted to Herschel.Nonetheless, Javier was relieved that Alyssa was not attracted to him. He felt nothing for someone nearly 1.9 meters tall and with skin so tanned that she would be one with the dark when he turned off the lights at night.However, Herschel seemed to be quite interested. When Alyssa was not paying attention, he told Javier, "Boss, don't you know, the darker, the tighter? I’m speaking from experience!"“Buzz off.” Javier had no intention to talk about such an experience with him now.After getting into Alyssa's car, Alyssa drove, and Herschel sat in the front passenger seat. It seemed like it would be easier for him to flirt. Javier intentionally sat in the back seat and started talking to Alyssa about their medical research team."There are probably more than 100 people in o
After talking with Alyssa throughout the journey, Javier felt even more strongly about the research team.He couldn’t wait to find out the family behind the consortium.If he could, he would bring all these talented people back immediately.However, Alyssa was not in a hurry. In order to welcome them as hosts, she brought them to a restaurant specially and invited Javier and Herschel to have breakfast.They were speechless, but Alyssa was doing it out of kindness, so Javier could not really refuse it either.After breakfast, Alyssa and Herschel got back to their own bubble. Javier was at a loss for words.After all, Alyssa did help him with his work, so it would not be appropriate for him to rush her. He got out of the restaurant and went aside to smoke.While he was smoking and waiting, a car passed by him and suddenly stopped.The car had tinted glass, so he could not look inside at all. Instead of getting out of the car either, the driver seemed to be fiddling with something
Javier motioned for Herschel to call Alyssa, but Herschel shook his phone. "I called, but her phone is off, and I can't get through."He asked again, "Alyssa is not scamming us, right? Is it because we look handsome and strong, she’s trying to sell us to fat, rich foreign women? I heard those women especially like strong Chinean men..."What a load of nonsense. Javier had no intention to deal with Herschel's nonsense at all.Javier got up and stretched before lighting a cigarette.He looked outside through the window. The security here was very strict indeed. There were also firearms like automatic rifles.They actually had a professional security service protecting this place. They were probably worried about their research data getting stolen.Javier was looking forward to taking over the entire medical research team, but they had a terrible concept of time!Finally, about ten minutes later, Alyssa appeared.Alyssa was wearing a white coat when she came to the lounge. She loo
The food had been served while the plates were steaming hot, but Suzanne had no desire to start eating."You can build a car, and if you don't agree with Heisenberg Group, you can still build a car on your own. But I can't. I don’t have the ability to develop independently in Chinea, nor do I have the ability to develop and handle independent manufacturing. I don't even have the qualification to own a patent."To tell you the truth, I developed a vaccine to prevent a certain disease when I was 20, but at the time, my mentor told me that I was still young, and I couldn’t hold this honor all by myself because I would get questioned by the public. He would co-sign as the developer with me."I was so happy to have a good mentor who was so considerate of me, so I signed my name on a series of documents he provided that I couldn’t understand. I was hoping to be published in academic journals as someone this young and gain fame in the medical field."But in reality, none of that happened.
Javier did not bring up their collaboration again.Suzanne had already stated her condition, which was to take back the honor that originally belonged to her.In her eyes, it was an obstacle, a hurdle that was set up to keep Javier out of the door.But in Javier's eyes, it was a challenge that would prove his ability.He liked Suzanne and the medical team she led, so he was going to make it.Javier and Suzanne held up their juice glasses and clinked lightly. Javier then said, "In order to celebrate us knowing each other, would you like to have a glass of wine?"Suzanne smiled sweetly. "I think it's better to have a glass of wine when we celebrate the return of my reputation."Javier nodded. "That’s not a bad proposal. That’s a deal.""Deal!"Suzanne happily agreed. Her rosy lips touched the side of the cup lightly, and she picked up a fork after taking a sip.However, just after she picked up the fork, she realized that Javier had finished drinking his juice and gotten up."
That day, Javier, who chose beauty over pride, left with Herschel in the afternoon.Javier's intention did not matter because he would have to return soon anyway, but Herschel would not forget his duties because of Alyssa."The boss and the woman, which one is more important? Of course, it's the boss. If I go with my boss, I’ll get all kinds of women. If I go with Alyssa, what should I do if my boss gets kidnapped and killed? Will I starve all by myself in the future?"Javier only had one answer to Herschel's argument, "Buzz off. You’re the one getting kidnapped and killed!"In fact, Herschel and Javier knew very well that Alyssa was just a way out to Herschel's needs.But to put it another way, Alyssa was just the same.They were just human beings made of flesh, and they had needs. It was understandable...When the plane returned to Chinea, it was nearly 12:00 p.m. local time, and it was a direct flight to Medb.Initially, Javier wanted to find a hotel near the airport to stay
Lying on the big hotel bed, Javier mulled over the matter with Suzanne’s medical research team.He felt that it might not be Suzanne who was reluctant to leave. It was most probably the consortium that might not let them go. Anyone who had a nest of chickens that could lay golden eggs would make sure to have a secure leash on them as they were the source of profit.That was why Javier thought that taking care of Manny was the least of the problem. The actual issue was still waiting for him.Nonetheless, he had to resolve it step by step now. The first step to start things off would be to make Suzanne realize his ability and be willing to lead the team back to the country with him. However, to accomplish this, he still had to take care of Manny first.The next morning…Javier had just finished his breakfast when Luca, who had been on a call with Herschel and got to know the address, rushed here. Seeing Luca’s bloodshot eyes, Javier knew that the man must not have had a good night's
