The Billionaire's True Heiress From Fake Jewel to Real Crown novel Chapter 1378

With a personality like Ethan's, he would definitely end up entirely whipped by his future wife!

"I'm leaving tomorrow. Classes start soon, and I still have some things to handle in Cabinda," Claire replied casually.

"That Luminate Experimental Scar Gel... was that your doing?" Barry suddenly remembered a phone call he had received from an old friend.

Over the phone, his friend had sung high praises about a new company selling a miracle scar cream, even mentioning he wanted to meet the research team behind it.

Unfortunately, the company's boss had rejected the request.

Through a series of connections, Barry had found out that the creator of the scar gel didn't even work at Luminate—and was actually a university student.

His mind instantly went to Claire.

Who else could it possibly be?

Cabinda might be a massive city, but it couldn't be overflowing with terrifying medical prodigies. Aside from Claire, who else could pull that off?

Claire hadn't expected Barry to ask about that.

Ethan stared at her in sheer shock, looking like a betrayed widow.

Living in Cabinda, he was obviously aware of the wildly popular ointment that had taken the market by storm.

People of all ages and genders were fighting to get their hands on it, and it had sold out instantly upon release.

Even now, the pre-orders were backed up endlessly online.

That alone proved just how miraculously effective the Experimental Scar Gel was.

"I made it, but the formula belongs to my mentor. I just tweaked the ratios slightly to make it suitable for the general public."

Claire saw no reason to hide it.

Even if she tried, with Barry's connections, he would eventually connect the dots between her and the scar gel anyway.

Rather than letting him hear it from someone else, she preferred to just tell him outright.

She explained the original intent behind the ointment and her philosophy on the project.

As his student, Claire could only do her best to fulfill his dying wish.

"The fact that you could improve upon it is incredible in itself. The original formulas aren't always suitable for mass use."

"Even for the exact same ailment, treatments have to be adjusted based on severity."

Barry really had a way with words.

At the very least, Claire felt very comforted by his perspective.

So much so that when she arrived at the airport the next day and saw Ethan standing there with his luggage, she was genuinely caught off guard.

"You're actually flying back with me?"

She couldn't believe how obedient Ethan was.

Did he just do whatever his dad told him? Did the guy have a mind of his own?
