Chapter 868
Inside the medical lab.
Uncle Pop walked toward William and Charmine, gushing, "How delightful!
You two are finally collaborating after so many years! With you two geniuses, this medication will surely succeed!"
Of course, the most important thing is that he had to witness their feelings for one another bloom!
Charmine said calmly, "Let’s work hard, and hopefully this medication can be made soon."
Many people longed for something to wipe out their memories. If this medication succeeded, it would be a great milestone reached in the scientific field!
Furthermore, it could help her or even Annabel and the rest to remember something they should not be remembering.
With that, the three of them assigned their tasks and started working hard. 2
Meanwhile, William went to the pantry for water. Uncle Pop followed behind him and spoke in a hushed tone, "Sigh! Why are you not showing any signal? You're so caught up with the research! How are you going to get her?"
"Uncle Pop, we're now researching for a new medication. We must focus during the shift," William recalled in a gentle voice.
Uncle Pop was exasperated at that. "Look at you-you're irritating me! Did you think I asked you to come to Burlington just to research a new
medication with Charmine?"
"Hmm?" William was perplexed.
The worried Uncle Pop then added, "Charmine has been facing quite the trouble as of late. I think she’s not a good fit with Anthony, so I asked you to come to Burlington to develop some feelings between you two. Once she has fallen for you, she’d no longer be attacked by the Bailey family! Do you want to see the Baileys bullying her?" 1
"I..." William pushed up his glasses.
Of course he did not want that to happen, but after assessing the situation, Charmine voluntarily wanted to be with Anthony, and she chose to face all these problems. He did not have any reason to step in. 1
Looking at William's expression, Uncle Pop was furious.
"Alright, alright. I can't be bothered to speak to you. You’ll be single forever if you keep going on like this! Hand the water to Charmine, I'll need my antihypertensive pill," he spoke as he handed the glass of water to William before turning away.
William had no choice but to walk over to Charmine with the glass at hand.
Charmine was conducting her research on the working desk. This project was at the forefront of current technology, and there were many problems to be solved.
Head lowered as she worked, Charmine's focused yet delicate look was a sight to behold.
Anxious, William hesitated before handing the glass to her. "Charmine, have a drink."
'Thank you."
Charmine was tired. She accepted the glass and took a few sips.
As if thinking of something, she said to William, "Oh, yes, don't call me Charmine in the future. Call me Jules. In the published document for this project, please use this name for me." 1
She could not let anyone know that she was involved in this project, especially people like Julian, otherwise, they might ruin her plan.
Although William was curious, he would not ask more than he had to. He could only say, "Okay."
All caught up by the research, little did they notice that someone was using a high-definition camera to capture photos of them from a tree not far away. 3
At Violet Residence, noon.
Luke sent over two meal boxes. He saw Anthony and Chris inside, busy with their own things.
