Queen of Wild Cards novel Chapter 567

He fully supported her having her own empire and career.

But while a few days away was manageable, being apart for a month or two was entirely unacceptable.

The last time she vanished into North Myanor, they were separated for over two months, and every single day had been pure torture for him.

"It's hard to say. It all depends on how the clinical trials go."

Some of the breakthrough drugs her team developed were already on the market, while others were still locked in rigorous testing phases.

Currently, their work on embryonic stem cells and targeted cancer therapies hadn't seen any significant breakthroughs, and the cancer drug trials had completely stalled.

The original motivation behind establishing the lab had been to develop that exact cancer treatment.

Watching her mother waste away in agony had left a permanent scar on her soul. Once she mastered her medical training, her ultimate goal was to ensure no cancer patient ever had to suffer that way again.

Looking down at her, Julius asked softly, "Have the drugs your team developed been successful?"

He had learned that she was more than happy to share details—if he specifically asked. If he didn't pry, she wouldn't offer the information.

"Some have been massive successes, others are still in R&D. The ones that passed have been patented and are actively being used in major hospitals, while others are available commercially."

Julius thought back. Her lab was in Bay City, her medical skills were borderline miraculous, and when she first treated his paralyzed legs, the single pill she gave him was supposedly worth a fortune.

She had explicitly told him it was her own proprietary formula, completely unavailable to the public. She warned him that no amount of money could buy it on the open market and threatened to take it back if he refused to swallow it.

Back then, he had thought she was just being petty and money-hungry. Now, he realized she wasn't exaggerating at all.

Those pills truly were priceless miracles. He had even confirmed it with Uncle Abel later.
