In the laboratory, there were about a dozen researchers dressed in white lab coats, each busy with various pharmaceutical equipment. They seemed hurried, and upon closer inspection, a touch of distress was evident in their eyes.A researcher, holding an extracted solution, poured a seemingly yellow liquid into a waste bin with a pained expression. "Why did it fail again? Just when will we get a breakthrough?"A man beside him echoed, "We've been working overtime for a month straight, but no matter how we try, we can't get the formulation right! We even followed Professor Lopez's instructions precisely, so why do we keep failing? I'm starting to doubt his formula.""We'll get scolded if we fail to develop this drug. By the time Mr. Lynch returns, we're going to get fired!" another researcher exclaimed, visibly agitated."Lower your voice. If Professor Lopez hears you, you're doomed," someone nearby warned.The next second, the laboratory door opened, and Natasha walked in. The rese
Natasha casually took out a failed semi-finished product, placed it under a specially designed microscope, and carefully observed. Then, she picked up the densely written data sheet on the table.Examining the data sheet and combining it with the observation of the semi-finished product, she promptly identified the problem with the researchers' formula.Radiance Biomed's formula was based on a theory, and it adopted modern medicine pharmaceutical concepts, using Gemzar and Platinol as the main components.At a glance, Natasha discovered the issue with their proportions."Another failure!" cursed a researcher, pouring the newly developed reagent into the waste bin with a frustrated expression."Let me try," Natasha suggested to the researcher, who seemed troubled.The researcher looked up upon hearing her voice. He scrutinized her and said, "You? What's a material deliverer like you doing here? Do you not see I'm frustrated right now? Leave if you've done your job. Don't disrupt o
Natasha uttered firmly, "Let me give it a try."Ronald still had a look of mistrust as he said, "Even if you understand pharmaceuticals, this is an extremely complicated drug. Even our professors can't handle it. What makes you think you can?"Natasha smiled. "How will we know if you don't let me try?""Fine. Let her give it a try," another researcher chimed in, seemingly eager to see her fail.Ronald, half-skeptical, stepped back from the table. Natasha approached without hesitation, picked up various materials from the table, and began the process of drug development.The surrounding researchers watched her proficiently perform the extraction, sterilization, and so on.As time passed, Natasha finally reached the final step. When the last material was added, and the petri dish showed a significant reaction, she removed her protective goggles. "It's done."With a sneer, Ronald blurted, "That's it? Are you kidding me?"He had watched the entire process. The proportions of the tw
As Natasha couldn't reveal her true name, she opted for Nancy. It was a simple name, also the one Jacob used to call her, carrying memories of that laboratory."Nancy..." Ronald stuttered out her name. "I'm really sorry. I… I misunderstood you. Please don't blame me.""It's okay. I understand."Natasha's task for the day was done. Wordlessly, she picked up her bag and walked out, leaving the astounded researchers in her wake.While Ronald watched Natasha turn and leave, he quickly took out his phone and snapped a photo of her silhouette.Then, he shared the photo on a niche pharmaceutical forum with a caption that read, "I'm a researcher at Radiance. Today, I encountered a genius! She was amazing! She effortlessly solved the problem our company has been struggling with!"I swear, her skills are out of this world! I dared not ask for the genius' contact information, but I daringly took a photo of her. Does anyone here recognize her?"As Ronald was a relatively accomplished resear
Natasha exited the laboratory and found Ryan dozing off on a chair. His body was slightly curled inward while his head tilted outward, forming a posture that somehow made his towering figure of nearly six feet appear oddly endearing on the relatively small seat.Slowly, she approached him.Ryan's lips were gently sealed, his eyelashes fluttering occasionally in his sleep.Natasha had assumed Ryan would go about his tasks after she entered the lab, but to her surprise, he had been patiently waiting at the entrance all this time.For a moment, she couldn't decide whether to consider his behavior as earnest or sheer naivety.As Natasha watched Ryan sleep, she sighed softly. She couldn't let him continue to doze off like this. It must have been uncomfortable for him to be cramped in such a small chair.Therefore, she lightly tapped Ryan's shoulder, and he stirred awake almost immediately."Professor... How did it go?" Ryan's voice sounded groggy."It's all sorted out," Natasha repl
Ryan couldn't believe that Natasha knew he had gastritis. He had always thought that he hid it well, never showing any signs."I'm leaving now." Natasha had already settled into her car, waving at Ryan to catch his attention, when she noticed his somewhat bewildered expression.After that, her car disappeared from Ryan's sight. He looked down at the small vial in his hand, slowly tightening his grip.…After parting ways with Ryan, Natasha intended to head home straight. However, she received another phone call.She took out her phone and saw that it was from Lorelei. Her heart jumped, and she silently prayed that Lorelei wasn't calling to persuade her against the divorce.Natasha felt that if Natalie hadn't caused a scene at Grayson Villa previously, or if she hadn't brought the matter to Lorelei's attention, Lorelei wouldn't be contacting her so frequently.So, she couldn't help but think that Natalie was somehow involved.Natasha heaved out a sigh and then answered the call.
"Tasha, have you decided?" Lorelei waited anxiously for Natasha's response, but there was no reply from the other end of the call for quite some time. It started to make her nervous.Natasha hesitated, carefully considering her words before answering slowly, "Yes... I'll attend tomorrow and explain everything to Grandpa. Let me know the specifics later." After pondering, she felt that attending the banquet was the best option. It was just a matter of seeing Joshua again.Fortunately, Philip definitely wouldn't invite Natalie. Or else Natasha would have to endure seeing her, which she dreaded."Sure! Tasha, I knew that you were kind-hearted and cared about us. You wouldn't be able to refuse," Lorelei replied gleefully.She thought that Natasha was unlike Natalie, who appeared innocent but only cared about money, completely indifferent to the Grayson family's well-being."Alright. If there's nothing else, I'll hang up," Natasha controlled her tone as she spoke, sounding somewhat d
Feeling awkward to be ignored, Ron sat quietly to the side. He glanced around the room but couldn't spot Joshua anywhere."Dad, hasn't Josh arrived yet?" Ron voiced his thoughts."I don't know what that brat is up to. He's late!"Ron thought for a moment before saying, "He must be caught up with company matters. Recently, there have been numerous urgent issues, so it's difficult for him to come on time."Philip frowned upon hearing this. "What happened at the company? What's so urgent?"Ron sighed before answering, "Rumors are circulating that Grayson Corp is on the brink of bankruptcy..."Philip became even more anxious and demanded, "What exactly happened? Explain to me!"He had only been ill for a while, so how could such a major issue have occurred at the company? How had it reached the point of bankruptcy without Joshua telling him anything?When Ron noticed Philip getting angry, he cleared his throat and continued, "Well, it's not that complicated. It's related to recent
