Chapter 84
In the wee hours of the morning, the office was still bustling with
plenty of activity.
Everyone was startled when Suzanne showed up in her pajamas and a cardigan. Nathan wasn’t too happy.
He headed her way and asked, “Didn’t I tell you to get some sleep?”
“Is the lab in Research Building Five?” Suzanne asked in a hurry.
Nathan was confused. “What’s happening?”
Suzanne looked directly at him and whispered in a sincere tone, Lucas mentioned that you guys couldn’t extract pure Azurium. I want to give it a shot.”
Nathan glared at Lucas, who looked guilty. Beads of sweat were forming on his forehead and he quickly shrank back.
Instead of following Nathan’s instructions to get Suzanne to sleep early, Lucas told her about the issues they were dealing with, leaving Suzanne all worked up.
“You think you can handle it?” Nathan was surprised.
Suzanne shook her head, then nodded. She wasn’t completely
confident.
“I know the methods, but I can’t guarantee that it’ll work. You’ve been trying for a week without any success, so let me give it a try.”
Nathan looked at her hands and frowned helplessly. “You’re planning to try with those injured hands of yours?”
Suzanne grinned awkwardly and mumbled, “Or, you know, I’d happily take two assistants if you can spare them.”

After a stressful day, Nathan’s mood unexpectedly lifted when he saw her. All the troubling worries suddenly felt a little smaller. He decided to allow her the chance to try.
“How long do you think this will take?” Nathan asked.
Suzanne shook her head. “I don’t know.”
Nathan glanced at his wristwatch. “It’s too late. Go back and get some rest. We can give it a shot tomorrow.”
“I’ve made it this far. Let me try it before heading back,” Suzanne
mumbled.
Everyone around them couldn’t believe their eyes.
Nathan, typically strict and in control, was now engaged in a calm conversation with Suzanne. His easygoing demeanor was a sharp contrast to the serious and stern attitude he displayed moments ago. No one had a clue about the topic of their discussion.
Suddenly, Nathan turned to Cole and directed, “Call Dr. Lawrence. Have him arrange for two assistants to come over, and get ready for another round of experiments.”
“Got it,” Cole responded and hurried out to call Joe.
Nathan took Suzanne’s hand and led her out of the office, with everyone following closely behind. The convoy of vehicles headed straight to Research Building Five.
Having received the news, Joe was already waiting downstairs at the research building. His face lit up with surprise and joy upon seeing
Suzanne.
“Mrs. Morrison, it’s you?”
Having met Joe before, Suzanne nodded politely and greeted, “Hello, Dr. Lawrence.”

Joe furrowed his brows when he saw her bandaged hands. “Mrs. Morrison, are your hands injured?”
“It’s not a big deal. I’m here to assist in extracting pure Azurium. My hands are less agile than I need them to be at the moment, so I could use two extra pairs to help out,” Suzanne explained, raising her hands a little awkwardly.
Just then, Alan approached while adjusting his glasses. He
exclaimed, “Aren’t you the lady who translated Delphius on the cruise?
Joe nudged Alan. “Lady? She’s Mrs. Morrison-General Morrison’s wife.”
Alan quickly apologized. “I’m sorry, Mrs. Morrison. I didn’t mean to be
rude.”
Suzanne smiled. “No worries. You’re Dr. Howard, right?”
“Yes,” Alan replied with respect.
“Mrs. Morrison, would it be okay for Dr. Howard and I to assist you?” Joe asked politely.
“Thank you, professors. I appreciate your help,” Suzanne replied.
Joe gestured. “Mrs. Morrison, this way please.”
Suzanne moved with modesty and grace, exuding a gentle elegance that seemed to captivate Nathan. She seemed different from the times when she usually felt insecure discussing her past.
Nathan was lost in thought until Cole came up quietly and asked, General Morrison, do you think Mrs. Morrison can handle this?”
Nathan didn’t seem too hopeful. “We’ve had various famous
professors working on this for a week to no avail. Do you think she
can do it?”

“Why even let Mrs. Morrison try it, then?” Cole questioned.
Nathan replied in a cold but slightly indulgent tone, “If she’s up for it, why not? Otherwise, she’ll be tossing and turning all night.”
“If Mrs. Morrison messes up the precious Azurium like Ms. Hoffis did, it’s going to be a big loss,” Cole said.
