Victor rubbed his chin, deep in thought. “Isn’t that even scarier? She’s ruthless and decisive in front of enemies, but turns into a kitten in front of her man. That contrast … Tsk, tsk.”
Primo cleared his throat and said, “Mrs. Menzie is indeed the current boss of Alliance 749. Last time at the presidential residence in Marnsburg, she took on the entire security team by herself.”
One person against the whole team?
The senior officials sucked in sharp breaths again.
Thinking back on how they’d treated Noelle over the past few days, chills ran down their spines.
She really had a good temperament not to hold it against them.
“Wait!” Garrick smacked his forehead. “Earlier, Mrs. Menzie said Dr. Bourn’s new formula had problems! None of us believed her, and we didn’t even take what she prescribed!
“Hurry, Victor! Go buy the medicinal herb again, brew it exactly how Mrs. Menzie said, and make sure everyone drinks it!”
Victor snorted. “Oh, now you trust it? Weren’t you totally against it before?”
“Yes, yes, I was blind!” Garrick urged. “Please, go buy the herb right now!”
Victor chuckled. He knew Garrick was panicking because his son was part of the drug testing. With his son at risk, he was naturally freaking out.
On top of that, many elite IBI members were also involved in the testing.
Victor didn’t argue and moved quickly to get the herbs.
“Dr. Bourn, please have someone brew these and hand them out.”
Victor soon returned and passed the herbs to Rachel.
She noticed the respect in the way he mentioned Noelle.
In just one day, their attitude had flipped completely. Yesterday, they mocked Noelle. Today, every mention of her was filled with respect and admiration.
Rachel clenched her teeth and took the herbs.
The decoction was ready in no time. Unlike before, everyone rushed to drink it.
“Dr. Bourn, aren’t you a huge fan of Miracle Healer? Maybe talk to Mrs. Menzie? She’s the boss of Alliance 749. She must know Miracle Healer and could introduce you.”
Rachel said nothing and shot the speaker a cold glare.
He sensed her mood and shut up right away.
Why the glare? I was just telling the truth.

Everyone knew Rachel liked Sebastian, but he didn’t like her. He liked Noelle. There was nothing Rachel could do about it.
While they were talking, Primo and Duo walked into the Medical Research Department.
Everyone stood up at once.
“Greetings, Captains!”
Primo and Duo were core captains of IBI and Sebastian’s right–hand men. Everyone naturally had to pay their respects.
Still, no one knew why the two of them were here.
Seeing them, Rachel felt a bad feeling creep up. Sure enough, Primo spoke the next second.
“Dr. Bourn, Mr. Menzie sent me to ask if you’ve packed. You’ll be leaving for the northern desert tonight,” he said coolly.
Rachel’s face turned pale instantly.
The others stared in shock. “Dr. Bourn, are you really going to the northern desert?!”
That place was freezing and desolate, with constant sandstorms. Even men struggled there, let alone Rachel, who’d always lived comfortably.
Her fingers trembled. She never thought Sebastian would be ruthless enough to send people to drive her out.
“Dr. Bourn, please pack quickly. Mr. Menzie ordered that you must leave before eight tonight,” Primo said firmly. “If you don’t, we’ll have to use force.”
Soon, a crowd gathered outside the department. People watched Rachel pack, whispers and strange looks cutting into her like
knives.
