Chapter 1873

Wilfred’s expression was serious as he occasionally exchanged a few whispered words with Karina beside him. Their heads unconsciously leaned closer as they discussed molecular drug structures, clinical trial feedback, and other technical details with seamless cooperation.
Yvette sat quietly to the side, watching the two of them work with such focus. She felt out of place in their professional conversation and instead turned her attention to observing the people from HeShare Pharmaceuticals.
By chance, she noticed Benedict’s assistant casting frequent glances toward Wilfred and Karina. There was a certain weight to those looks, something that gave Yvette pause. Her heart skipped a beat, and she made a mental note to stay alert.
After an intense round of discussions, the outline of a preliminary plan began to take shape. Benedict smiled broadly, tapping the table lightly. “Today’s exchange has been very productive. Everyone must be a bit worn out. How about we take a break for lunch and refine the details this afternoon?”
The group nodded in agreement.
As they stood to leave, Benedict approached Karina specifically, his smile warm and friendly. “Dr. Norman, your insights are remarkable for someone so young. I look forward to seeing the sparks fly in our future collaborations.” Karina returned his compliment with a polite smile, unaware of the fleeting, calculating look in his eyes.
Lunch was served at the rooftop restaurant of the company. The table was laden with an array of exquisite dishes, but Karina’s mind was entirely consumed by the project. She barely picked at her food before setting down her utensils and diving back into her notes. Seeing this, Wilfred leaned closer and gently advised, “Don’t push yourself too hard. You need to pace yourself if you want to stay sharp this afternoon.”
Karina looked up and met his concerned gaze. Her heart softened, and she nodded in agreement.
The afternoon session resumed with a focus on key challenges like selecting clinical trial samples and coordinating with partner hospitals. Disagreements occasionally flared up, and the atmosphere became tense at times.
Wilfred argued his points firmly and sharply, while Karina stepped in at critical moments to provide additional evidence with a more measured tone. Together, they struck a balance, stabilizing the discussions and gradually advancing the plan.
As the golden light of the setting sun poured through the windows, the final plan was finally agreed upon.
Benedict stood and began to clap. “A pleasure working with all of you! Let’s move forward together and achieve great results.”
The room buzzed with smiles and handshakes as everyone celebrated their progress.
On the way back, Karina leaned back in her seat, exhausted but content, watching the cityscape blur past outside.
She spoke softly, “All the effort was worth it. Now we just need the clinical trials to go smoothly.”
Wilfred turned to her, his expression gentle. “The next phase will be tough, but I’m here. Don’t worry.”
Sitting in the back seat, Yvette observed their interaction and
couldn’t help but smile. Just as she was about to tease them, her phone buzzed. She glanced at the screen, and her expression changed abruptly.
The call was from a colleague at the hospital. When she answered, a panicked voice came through.
“Yvette, we have an emergency here. A critical patient’s condition is deteriorating rapidly, and we need you for the consultation. How soon can you get back?”
Her expression turned serious. “Understood. I’ll head back immediately.”
After ending the call, she looked apologetically at Karina and Wilfred. “There’s an emergency at the hospital. I need to leave now. The rest of the project will be in your hands.” Karina’s face filled with concern. “Be careful on your way back. Don’t worry about this-we’ve got it covered.”
Wilfred also nodded and offered a few words of advice.
The car made a brief stop at the airport, and they watched Yvette’s figure disappear into the crowd. Karina felt a faint unease bubbling inside her, though she couldn’t pinpoint why. en FindNovel
Wilfred seemed to sense her thoughts and gently took her hand. “Don’t overthink it. The project is moving forward as planned. Everything will be fine.”
In the days that followed, the project
preparation ramped up at full speed. Karina and Wilfred arrived at HeShare Pharmaceuticals every
morning at the crack fel
immersing themselves in the intricate work without pause.
