Aria made a snap decision.
"The only way to stop this is to lay out all the pros and cons! It's the only way to save those innocent patients!"
This was the worst-case scenario.
After all, Hazel was part of the Flourish Dominion Corporation, and Alden Reaves didn't want to make things too ugly.
Alden Reaves sighed. "That girl, Hazel, is prone to taking shortcuts. She's just too desperate for success."
"Tomorrow, you'll come with me to the symposium. If necessary, we'll do as you suggest."
Aria nodded. "Okay, I'll start gathering the evidence now."
"I'll help you," Raphael said, standing up. "From what I'm hearing, this sounds serious. Let me help."
Another person meant more help.
Aria thought for a moment and nodded.
The two of them went to the research lab.
"What do you need me to do?"
"Export all of Hazel's experiment data from the last few months. I'll find my own data from a few years ago."
Raphael nodded.
Having been in the medical field and spending a long time abroad, he was very familiar with the equipment.
"By the way, Dad mentioned you used acupuncture to save him. I heard from Gideon that you studied Western medicine, didn't you? When did you become so skilled in holistic practices too?"
Aria, who had been busy exporting data, froze for a second when Raphael asked this.
She had mentioned collaborating with Dawn, and Dawn's gene research proposal was a combination of Western and Eastern medicine.
Now, here she was, also skilled in holistic practices.
Was Raphael's question a sign of suspicion?
Aria was well aware of how important her proposed genetic disease research was to the Evernight family.
"I developed an interest when I was in contact with Dawn before. Honestly, this was my first time actually doing it. I was worried something would go wrong, but I didn't have a choice. I had to take the risk."
Raphael nodded in agreement. "That's true. Thank goodness you were there, otherwise it would have been dangerous."
The topic didn't last long.
