Chapter 110
Of course, Olivia was not teasing Isaac. She had forgiven him.
She didn’t ask for much. She just wanted to hear those words of apology. Olivia was very soft–hearted. All she wanted was a simple apology. However, she didn’t get one from Gillian, so she left Layfield. Amelia, who was biased towards others and thought Olivia wanted to hurt her, didn’t give one either.
Only Isaac had done it.
Olivia blinked. It was as if the protective walls guarding her heart finally crumbled. Her heart felt soft, warm, and filled with indescribable happiness.
Feeling the lightness on his arm, the trembling, and the wetness on his arm, Isaac had a realization, leaving him in shock.
It turned out that Olivia wanted it to be that simple.
She just wanted an apology!
Isaac’s eyes welled up at this thought, and his heart ached terribly.
Why was Olivia so soft–hearted?
After a while, he drank coffee and suppressed his surging emotions. He turned to Olivia and said, “So you’re angry at me. That’s why you deliberately enraged me and said that you don’t want to study medicine, right?”
Olivia remained silent.
Well, that was not the case at all.
She let go of Isaac and picked up the orange she was eating before. She broke off a piece and placed it in her mouth. Feeling the sour and sweet taste on her tongue, she turned to Isaac. “Grandpa, I’m not lying to you about that, and I’m not trying to anger you. I don’t know whether I want to study medicine anymore. I won’t focus on practicing medicine anymore.”
As soon as she finished speaking, the room suddenly fell silent, like an empty cellar filled with cold air.
Isaac was stunned. He guessed he had heard wrongly and could not help but ask again, “What did you say? You’re lying to me, right?”
Olivia was silent.
Her expression was evident and stern, while the determination in her eyes was lingering, almost like she couldn’t be swayed.
When a person was genuinely furious and anxious, they would not necessarily fly into a rage but instead stay calm. There was a hint of confusion and helplessness in their expression.
This was the state that Isaac was in.
He found it hard to understand. He stared at Olivia. “Why?”
Why?
Why would she stop practicing medicine and not want to save lives?
Olivia sat opposite Isaac and threw the orange peel in her hand into the trash can. Her expression was calm and determined. She slowly stretched out her hands and showed them to Isaac. “Grandpa, look at my hands…” “What am I looking at?” Isaac didn’t understand.
Olivia lowered her eyes and said in a soft voice, “How many people do you think I can save in a day, an hour, or a minute with my hands?”
Isaac was stunned. He did not understand Olivia’s intentions, nor did he know why she asked this.
Blake, Yanis, and Lindsay also looked at Olivia.
None of them could guess what she was thinking.
Seeing that Isaac did not answer, Olivia raised her eyebrows slightly. Her gaze swept past Isaac and landed on Yanis. “Mr. Yanis, what do you
think?”
How could Yanis know? He scratched his head, thought for a while, and said, “Based on the fact that saving one person takes about half an hour, excluding the rest time, I think it would take eight hours a day for you to save 16 people.”
After saying that, he added, “However, if it’s surgery or acupuncture, it will probably take a few hours to save a person.”
Olivia looked away and turned her gaze back to Isaac. “Grandpa, did you hear that? I can only save 16 people a day. How many people can I save by extracting the neurodrug that was recognized and Lasker Award honored?”
Isaac’s expression changed slightly. He seemed to know what she was going to say.
Millionaire’s Missing Darling
Olivia stretched out three fingers. “So far, clinical trials have cured 300 people, and this is only the neurodrug in its simple form. We haven’t researched derivative drugs, nor has it been marketed worldwide.”
“This neurodrug can activate nerve vitality and promote nerve regeneration.” Olivia’s tone was clear and calm but stirred up endless waves. “After marketing it, millions worldwide will stand up again because of this neurodrug. People’s fingers, arms, toes, legs, waist, and spine, which became senseless after accidents, will be revived because of the neurodrug. It will give people new life.”
