The Billionaire's True Heiress From Fake Jewel to Real Crown novel Chapter 1044

"Who is your mentor?"

Julian figured that if Claire's teacher was truly that exceptional, he must have heard the name in the medical field.

"My teacher is Hale. You've probably never heard of him."

Hale?

The name drew an absolute blank in Julian's mind.

"Is he a doctor?"

If he was a clinician, it made sense that Julian hadn't heard of him.

Solenia was massive, and there were countless brilliant underground physicians.

"Yes, he was a master of traditional medicine."

A flicker of nostalgia crossed Claire's eyes at the mention of him.

Hale had never been a man who sought the limelight.

"I see. Would it be possible for you to introduce me to him?"

Julian was convinced that the mastermind behind Claire was the true asset Luminate needed.

He just didn't understand why the man was so reluctant to show his face.

"That... would be rather difficult," Claire said, looking helpless.

"Is it inconvenient?" Julian asked, his disappointment palpable.

Why was it always so impossible to meet the true legends?

He had heard that this expert would be providing more formulas in the future, which only fueled his desire to meet him.

Collaborating with a titan like that would be immensely educational.

"Very inconvenient. If you want to see him, you'll probably have to wait a few decades."

Julian obviously didn't take her words literally.

"Why would I have to wait decades?"

Was Dr. Hale simply refusing public appearances for the foreseeable future?

"Because my mentor has passed away."

"Unless you plan on joining him underground right this second."
