Molly was also clear that her team was mature. There are many things that they could handle without any instructions, and they worked together quite well.On the other hand, Sharon was a newcomer, both physically and mentally, so she could only watch those people gather and discuss in the conference room. Since the conference room was soundproof, she could not hear anything outside. She had poked many holes in the paper in her hand. 'Why is Molly just leaving it all to the foreigners? Why am I left sitting idly by and doing nothing here?' Sharon sat in her seat and was disgruntled. She picked up a pen and started poking at the paper hard. 'I'm assigned to this job, yet I have no access to the core responsibilities. Do I look like I'm short of a few thousand dollars in my salary?'STAB! STAB! STAB!The movement of her hands was making a noise. Soon, she crumpled the paper into a ball and threw it into the trash with indignation.Molly did not expect this aspect of collegiality when
"Who in this room isn't a graduate of the world's most prestigious universities? Does she think she is the only one who is the grandest?""She really thinks she's a princess. What a complete, egotistical brat."The voices around got louder.When confronted with Molly's attitude, Sharon felt more and more like Molly was machinating against her."What's going on? Why are you all gathering around here?" Sean had just finished his work at his company and stopped by to pick up Molly. He saw a group of people gathered together as soon as he entered the research laboratory.When Sharon saw Sean, it was as if she saw a savior. Her eyes were glinting, and she quickly spoke to Sean."Mr. Anderson, you came right on time. I was accepted into the research laboratory through the regular procedure. If Dr. May doesn't like me, she can just tell me, why put me in a dispensable position? I joined the research lab because I want to make a difference, not waste my time here. I hope Mr. Anderson can
On the other hand, Sharon went home with resentment and indignation written all over her face. She opened the door with force and then slammed it shut with a loud bang behind her. She then threw the car key into the cabinet in the foyer with a loud sound."What's wrong? Why do you look so angry? Who has upset you?" Sharon's father and mother were watching TV in the living room when they heard the noises.Sharon threw herself onto the couch with a darkened face."Didn't you go to work today at the research laboratory of Anderson Corporation? What's wrong?" her mother asked when she saw Sharon in a dark mood. She had always favored this daughter of hers."What research laboratory of Anderson Corporation? They should just rename it the research laboratory of May Group." Sharon sounded pissed. Thinking about today's clash with Molly, she confided it frankly in front of her parents. "Look, isn't she abusing her authority? Isn't she afraid that I will get close to Sean?" Anger flared aga
"Is that so?" Alice asked, raising an eyebrow. She cared for her son a lot, but she was also not that easy to be fooled. The higher the status one was, the more cautious one became because one did not want someone to make use of them.Sharon's heart skipped a beat. She stroked the hair around her ear, pretending to speak casually. "Molly recruited a team from somewhere and took over the research, while I can only stare at a pile of data on the computer every day.""When it comes to conventional medicine, I'm just as good as the team. I can do research, too." She pouted, looking a little disgruntled, but it sounded like she was just whining, not worthy of being taken seriously.At first, Alice did not believe that Sharon, at her age and with her temperament, was completely innocent. Only after hearing this that she completely put her guard down and started to ponder what Sharon had said.'She is given a sinecure? It's my son who founded the research laboratory, and Anderson Corporat
She had been too busy to notice anything amiss with Sharon, let alone worry about her secret plan.At around 8:00 p.m., Molly was still in the research laboratory, discussing her research with other researchers, who were not the kind of people who would think of slacking off and clocking out as soon as the clock hit the off-working hour. Especially when they saw Molly as the director working so hard, they felt motivated and more energetic than ever.Molly was listening to a researcher analyzing the drug when she suddenly felt her cell phone vibrating in her pocket. She fished it out and glanced at it. 'Why is he calling?'"Excuse me. You go on. I have got to answer a call." Molly took the phone and walked out to answer the call."What's wrong?" She asked.Brycen saw that she finally picked up and immediately said, "Claudia looks like she has a fever. Hurry back." He glanced at Claudia, who was being held in Sawyer's arms. Her face looked as though she lacked her usual energy and v
Alex and Ben were not complacent, and their expression was grave. "It's our duty as brothers to take care of our sister.""Not only do we have to take care of Claudia, but we also have to take care of Mommy."Claudia falling sick caused Brycen to blame himself. He felt even worse when he saw everyone shuffle back and forth busily while he could do nothing to help. "Chastise me, Molly. I feel bad as an adult for not taking good care of Claudia." He thought he should have noticed Claudia's condition earlier, yet he turned out to be not as good as Alex and Ben."Are you serious? Why should I chastise you?" Molly laughed helplessly and looked at the self-condemned Brycen. "It's common for children to get sick. It's not your fault. Claudia is fine. All of you just go do what you need to do. No need to stay on guard here."After the words of admonition, Molly drove everyone away, as one patient in the family was enough. Brycen and Sawyer had not recovered, so Molly would not let them hel
"Mommy, let us stay. Claudia will be upset if she wakes up without seeing us." Ben was afraid that his mother would ask him to leave. Ben's dark eyes were covered with a layer of mist as if he would cry if Molly refused his request.Molly understood how close these three children were to each other, so she could not bear to ask them to sleep in another room. She got up to help tuck the quilt on the bed and whispered to the two stubborn children, "You two can stay. But, you can't stay up all night. Come lie down next to your sister and go to sleep. Staying up late will make you sick, and if Claudia gets well tomorrow, she won't be happy to see you two sick."After Molly said that, Alex and Ben gave in and obediently lay down next to Claudia. Their idea was that they had to take care of themselves, not let themselves get sick. Hence, they had to sleep well so that they would have the strength to take care of their sister tomorrow. Everyone was exhausted today. The two children took the
When Molly returned with freshly made warm water, she saw Claudia, who was feeling terrible earlier, had magically calmed down and was asleep again under Sean's patient reassurance."Shh!" Sean put his finger to his lips as a gesture to Molly to keep the noise down to avoid waking up Claudia.Molly, of course, knew that Claudia would feel better when she was asleep. She nodded in acknowledgment. But, she was worried that Claudia's fever would come back, so she stayed by Claudia's side, not daring to leave. It was not until four in the morning that the fever left Claudia. Molly was completely exhausted. She had been working in the research lab all day, and she was worried about Claudia's condition when she got home. Now, she was finally relieved but exhausted. She leaned back on the couch and dozed off in just a few minutes.Sean had put Claudia to sleep. Because the fever had gone down, she was sleeping soundly without waking up again. So, he put her to bed and covered her with a
