Chapter 748

Justin had arranged everything for Grace in advance and rented a villa next to their research center.
The next day, Justin brought Grace to the research center.
Grace had always thought that Justin’s senior should be a capable woman. However, when she saw that woman, she realized the other party was a gentle- looking beauty with a simple ponytail. When she saw Grace, she smiled brightly
and kindly.
“Hello, my name is Serena Logan.” She extended her hand to Grace.
“Hello, I’m Grace.”
Although Serena was Justin’s senior in school, she was a few months younger than Justin.
Justin said that Serena had been a top student since she was young. She had already learned all the high school courses when she first attended high school.
Her family had practiced medicine for generations. Her father was a professor at a medical university and also studied leukemia.
Serena also looked very approachable. She was very gentle to children and personally took Austin for a checkup.
After the checkup, Serena said with a serious expression, “This child seems to have autism.”
Grace looked worried. “Yes, she was kidnapped once before she was diagnosed with this illness. When she was first brought back, there was nothing unusual about her. However, after two days, she became less talkative. It became more and more serious…”
Toward the end, Grace’s voice choked.
Serena gently placed a hand on Grace’s shoulder. She comforted softly, “It’s alright. We’ll treat her autism after treating her leukemia.”
“Dr. Logan, how do we treat her autism? Is it difficult?” Grace looked at her.
“I’m not studying this either. I don’t know much about it. I just heard that autism should be related to her childhood experiences. Did Austin have any special experiences when she was young?”
Grace nodded as tears streamed down her face again. “Yes, she was thrown into the sea when she was young. Someone saved her life. After that, she was adopted by a kind-hearted family. I heard that she didn’t like to talk when she was young. After I reunited with her, she became much more cheerful. After this incident…”
Serena comforted her, “Then it seems that she still has a certain level of self- regulation. Don’t worry too much, I believe that she will recover. By the way, come with me for a blood test and a checkup.”
Grace asked in surprise, “Why do you need to draw mine?”
“We need to check if there are any invisible genes. Don’t worry, there’s a high chance that Austin’s illness can be cured.”
“Thank you, Dr. Logan.”
Serena smiled at her and led her to the testing center.
“Where’s the father? When will he be here?” Serena asked.
“Are you going to check the father’s blood?”
Serena nodded. “Yes.”
“Do we have to ask him to come and check?” Grace asked.
Looking at Grace’s furrowed brows, Serena seemed to understand something. “Is it inconvenient? If it’s inconvenient, it doesn’t matter. It doesn’t have to be checked necessarily.”
Grace nodded and said, “Thank you.”

At the airport.
Brian looked at the messages sent to Grace on his phone screen. The entire screen was filled with
messages, but there was no reply.
The call to Justin didn’t go through either.
Sharon sat next to him and said gently, “Stop looking. She doesn’t reply to your messages. It’s not like you can pull her out of her phone.”
Brian looked at her coldly.
Sharon’s heart skipped a beat. She felt extremely jealous.
