The researcher smiled awkwardly and explained, "Dr. Craw, I didn't look at your analysis on purpose. I was bringing
it to your seat and I accidentally..."
He paused for a second and assured her, "Don't worry, I won’t mention anything to anyone."
After all, before the initiation of every research project, the company would have to review the study’s theoretical
support. If he wanted to keep his job, he had to do what Luca said.
He just thought that it was a little strange. The data he saw in her analysis did not seem like any ordinary virus.
‘Luca's research is not on ordinary viruses?’
The company may not approve the project if it were too niche. The profits may be high, but the investments would
be excessive as there would not be much existing research and data on the topic.
The researcher was worried that Luca's efforts would be in vain.
The other researchers looked at each other and were not sure what to say. Luca sat there and was focused on her
data set.
After a while, Luca left with the documents.
The researcher who asked the question just now breathed a sigh of relief. "Based on Dr. Craw's tone, I thought I
was going to be fired."

"Even so, if Dr. Craw's next project is related to this sample, it's likely an unsought-after disease." The researcher
sighed. "Many companies won’t spend their money to support drug research for unpopular diseases as it takes time
and a lot of money. The company won’t go for it if she really proposes it. By then, we’ll have more time to do
nothing.”
"Yeah, the experimental environment here and abroad is different. Dr. Craw may get support if she went for this
topic abroad, but here in A City..." Another researcher shook his head. They had been in doubt when they heard
about one of the data sets.
"I think it’s fine if it’ll take more time. If our research is completed before hers, we can make it a group project."
The researcher who had been looking at some documents said out of the blue.
"That's true, but everyone has no clue."
"We're looking at past research now? Don't overthink it. Anyway, whether or not Dr. Craw's project is happening, we
need to have full attention on our projects."
"You seem close to Mr. Link. Why don't you ask him? He works closely with Dr. Craw and might know something,"
The researcher who asked Luca the question earlier said.
"Yeah, can you help us ask?" Another researcher urged him.
Rhett's voice came from the door as soon as he said that. "What do you want to ask me?"
The laboratory was suddenly quiet.
"Why is it so quiet all of a sudden?" Rhett smiled and looked at his colleagues. They were usually chatty but seemed
extra quiet at that moment.
All of them looked at him with surprised expressions, so he asked, "Is there something on my face?"
"No, no." The researcher who just spoke earlier hurriedly shook his head.
"Were you guys talking about me? What do you want to ask?" Rhett asked. He heard them mention ‘Mr. Link' before
he even got to the door.
He knew that their conversation must have something to do with him.
"Oh." The researcher looked at another researcher who was closer to Rhett, but the other party was focused on his
documents and did not pay any attention to him.
He had no choice but to say, "We want to ask you if you know what drug Dr. Craw is going to study in her next
research project?"
"I don't. Dr. Craw hasn't mentioned anything yet. If she has set a direction, she'll let us get started on the next
steps. Don't worry." Rhett was a little curious about their question. ‘The last project just ended not too long ago. But
they're not making use of the opportunity to run their own research and are curious about Luca's research?'
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"That makes sense." The researcher smiled awkwardly and let the topic pass.
Luca was sitting in the office and staring at the sample data in a daze.
This data was more precise. She wondered if she could formulate an antidote if she based it on this data.
Luca felt that she had to draw a tube of her blood for further verification.
She would not dare to consume a sample of the antidote without a second thought even if it was developed.
If it succeeded, all was fine, but she may die if it failed.
She may get lucky and would not die, but Abel would also find out that she was secretly researching the antidote.
She could not afford to act rashly.
She had drunk the poison, so her blood should have the same toxin. She could use her blood to do experiments on
mice. If it was successful, it would prove that the antidote she prepared was effective.
At that time, they would not have to rely on the antidote issued by Abel to live.
Luca decided to take action immediately.
She returned to the lab, grabbed two clean needles, and went back to her office.
Luca quickly drew blood for herself after she locked the door. She had not done it for too long, so she stabbed the
wrong spot.
