Flora’s Guide to a Second Chance at Love and Life novel Chapter 1000

The Global Medical Research Institute is considering Flora for the director training program? Oh, come on, really? And a Distinguished Professorship at the University of Maple Grove is somehow beneath her? Even if it is, Flora is part of our University of Maple Grove family. Feeling a bit ruffled, aren't you?"

Call after call bombarded Mr. Richard, leaving him no choice but to switch off his phone in frustration. The pride that had been so evident on his face moments ago was now replaced with a cloud of irritation.

Being too famous sure has its downsides!

Flora’s recent spotlight had made her a prime target for headhunters!

Thankfully, he’d had the foresight to offer her a Distinguished Professorship at the University of Maple Grove ahead of time.

But even that role seemed to undervalue her talents.

Perhaps offering her a position as Vice President under Mr. Garcia would be more fitting?

“Getting a bit too big for your boots, aren’t you?” Dr. Ray clicked his tongue disapprovingly.

“Let me tell you, there are plenty of folks interested in Flora,” Jules chimed in, clearly enjoying the spectacle.

Mr. Richard, growing more impatient, waved them off.

“Stop gawking at the chaos and get back to work. Jules, how’s your breakthrough drug coming along? I heard you’re making improvements. Any progress?”

At the mention of this, Jules’ smile faded slightly.

Progress…

There was some.

But it was still too early to share.

The potential of those drugs far exceeded even his expectations as a researcher.

If successful, his research could completely change how people perceive the world and cause quite a stir.

His previous breakthrough drug had already attracted unwanted attention, with medical organizations detaining him. If Flora hadn’t broken him out, he’d still be stuck there.

The release of this upgraded version would unsettle global powers even more.

He was acutely aware of the gravity of the situation, and given the current low success rate, he hadn’t disclosed it to anyone.

He wanted to tell Flora, but she’d been over on Lone Island, and he hadn’t had the chance.

Once the success rate improved, he planned to inform Flora, his major backer.
