Pursuing Her novel (Sophie and Tristan) novel Chapter 810

CHAPTER 810 SHOWING UP

Butterfly knew how cruel Nicholas could be, so she was merely venting her frustration vocally. She immediately cowered back when she noticed he was glaring at her.

Without a word, she spun on her heels and returned to her room.

Inside her room, Butterfly quickly shut the door and patted her chest. “D*mn it. I can't believe he is such a petty man! He gave me a death glare when I was just mocking.”

However, she had to admit that Nicholas was quite good-looking.

Richard snorted icily when the door slammed shut.

“Boss, should I teach her a lesson?” he asked. Butterfly was in their hands, so they could do whatever they wanted.

Nicholas shook his head.

“Don't do that. Sophie is quite protective of her as she works for Sophie. She will blame me if something happens to her,” he explained.

Richard nodded in acknowledgment.

“Take good care of her and satisfy her demands as long as she doesn't go too far,” Nicholas added.

He had the responsibility to protect her since she worked for Sophie.

“Got it, Boss.”

Richard couldn't help but feel bad for Nicholas, for he had to humble himself in order to obtain the love he sought.

The following day, Sophie made her way to the International Medical Association, dressed in a simple but stylish ensemble of a black hoodie, skin-tight jeans, and a pair of ordinary sneakers.

When she arrived at the International Medical Association, she was stopped by the guard.

“This is the International Medical Association. You can't enter without a valid ID.” At present, the entrance was being vigilantly guarded by special forces from Anglandur.

Sophie pulled out her phone to call Arius instead of explaining who she was to the special forces.

After receiving her call, Arius came out to bring her in.

“You're early. You should've gotten more rest and come later,” he told her.

There was no telling when she would be able to go home, so he felt that she should appreciate the time she got to rest at the hotel.

“I'm already used to it,” Sophie told him. She didn't have the habit of sleeping in, so she came to work after waking up.

“What about Tristan? Isn't he worried that you came here alone?” Arius pressed on. After all, Tristan followed her all the way to Anglandur as he was worried about her.

“He has something else to do. Come, let's go in,” Sophie urged, not wanting to waste time talking outside.

She knew they would soon get busy inside.
















































“Okay!”

Upon entering the building, Arius handed Sophie a temporary ID which she took in her hands and barely gave it a second glance.

“Let me bring you around,” Arius offered. They would most probably have to spend the next month here.

Solving the problem of the mutated virus in a period of one month would be considered an expeditious accomplishment.

The situation wasn't great now.

Sophie gave a curt nod. Instead of hurrying to start the research, she took the time to explore the facility with Arius. As they walked, the researchers working there recognized him and greeted him politely.

After they left, someone commented, “I heard that Professor Smith got himself a mentee in Chanaea. She was also the reason he insisted on heading to Chanaea now!”

Barney was the founder of the International Medical Association, so those working there knew who he was.

They were disappointed to learn that he was leaving.

“Is Barney's mentee the young lady accompanying Arius? She looks young. I don't think she's even twenty years old yet.”

“She's quite gorgeous.”

They couldn't help but ponder if the mysterious woman was truly deserving of Barney's decision to quit his post and travel to Chanaea.

“All right, stop gossiping. We need to focus on finishing our work!” someone reminded them.

They didn't have time to gossip now.

Approximately one month ago, citizens in a city in Anglandur were struck with a highly contagious mutated virus. As the virus quickly spread throughout the city and beyond, it resulted in the tragic deaths of many innocent people.

The International Medical Association was charged with the responsibility of finding a solution to the virus, but after a month of research and investigation, they were still unable to make any breakthroughs.

Initially, the International Medical Association had a fallout with Barney as he insisted on leaving.

This time, Anglandur's president had to call Barney personally and engage in a lengthy process of persuasion before Barney consented to come with his mentees.

“To be honest, we worked hard at the International Medical Association for a long time but to no avail. What can the young lady do to help us move closer to a solution?”

“Yeah! She's just pretty, that's all. Barney must've made a mistake this time.”

They were doubtful that Sophie would be able to cope with the difficulties that came with the job.

Working at the medical association sounded like a cool and prestigious job, but the work was intense and required a high level of dedication and perseverance to consistently produce results.

“Didn't I tell you to stop gossiping? Shut up and get back to work!”

They were busy researching the virus and shouldn't be gossiping.

Meanwhile, Sophie walked around the building for a bit and came to a stop. It was too big, so a full tour would take a few days.

She took the time to familiarize herself with her new working surroundings and concluded her tour.

“You don't have to visit the other areas. See that red building? Stay away from it. You're free to explore anywhere else,” Arius told her.

Many of the buildings in the International Medical Association were off-limits. Sophie's ID was given by Barney, providing her access to many places.

“Got it,” came Sophie's reply.

She wasn't an inquisitive person, so she wasn't tempted to visit that place since Arius had warned her against it.

“Come, let's go meet Dr. Smith,” Arius said. Since his arrival, Barney had never left his laboratory.

Upon their arrival at Barney's laboratory, Arius stepped forward and pressed his finger onto the biometric scanner. He then led Sophie in. As soon as Barney caught sight of Sophie, he removed his protective goggles.

He appeared a little frazzled since he had stayed up the entire night.

“Things aren't looking good. Arius should've explained everything to you, right? It has been a month, but the researchers at the International Medical Association still have no clues whatsoever regarding the unexpected mutation of the virus. It is still a mystery to them as to how it even came about in the first place,” Barney explained.

“Yes, I know. Don't worry, Dr. Smith. All we can do is give it our all,” Sophie promised.

However, they were unable to guarantee that the results would be positive.

Barney nodded. “Yes. Most importantly, the Anglandur citizens still have no idea how contagious the virus is. They are still going on with their daily life. Attempts to control the population and their activities have, as of yet, been unsuccessful,” he revealed. The citizens of Anglandur strongly believed in the power of freedom and refused to accept any form of restriction on their movement.

Sophie quickly got to work. On the other hand, Nicholas showed up to meet Tristan before the latter could go to him.
