Twenty-seven years ago, Yvette had become a master pharmacist in New York. Unwilling to accept the current situation, she went to the best university in Switzerland.
At the time, Wayne was a rising star at Staav University â everyone said he was going to create a miracle in biology.
Yvette went straight to him and told him that he could create a genetic serum that could improve human genetics. She also brought out the V1 genetic serum and tempted him to follow her into the field.
Yvette had used this tactic to trick Wayne. She then made a bet with Wayne as to which of the two of them could replicate V1.
Because at the time, there was only one V1.
Later, of course, Yvette won and Wayne lost. Yvette got Wayne to agree to fulfill one of her requests.
|âŧè$â ¢ââ³Ã¾Å§â¬ÑÅ 1n Ä âlÏoνεlÅ.cøâ¥
Wayne agreed without hesitation.
At the time, Yvette did not say what the request wasâ¦.
A year later, Wayne suddenly received a call from Yvette. She said, âYou owe me. My request is that you come back to the country and come to California and help me run a company.â
He took it upon himself to do so for 25 years.
Wayne wept bitterly on the other end of the line. âWhen I came to California, I asked the school for a license. I said I was here to do research. Itâs been many years, but I havenât canceled my license again! Your mother is so outrageous! Miss Nora, you canât be so cruel to me!â
Nora: ââ¦â
Hearing this, she felt that Yvette had indeed gone too far with Wayne.
However, Nora did not understand how Yvette recruited her subordinates back then. Old Maddy and the other two were so loyal to her.
Now, she had reason to suspect that they had all been duped by Yvette.
The smart and powerful image of his mother suddenly cracked a little in his heart.
Wayne continued, âMiss Nora, thereâs really nothing to attend to in the company! I donât want that V1 formula anymore! Itâs been too many years, can you let me go? Boohooâ¦let me tell you Iâm unhappyâ¦â
Seeing that Wayne was about to start scolding again, Nora interrupted, âDo whatever you want.â
Wayne choked. âReally?â
âYes.â
Nora found that a little annoying. âYou can stay too if you donât want to leave.â
Wayne immediately said, âNo, I just feel a littleâ¦like Iâm in the middle of a dream. Miss Nora, you are much more open-minded than your mother!â
Nora: ââ¦â
âThen Iâll resign⦠Iâll submit my letter of resignation tomorrow! Leave the companyâs affairs to others! However, Miss Nora, many years have passed. I actually have feelings for the company, youâ¦â
Nora couldnât help but say, âIf you donât shut up, youâll have to keep managing it.â
ââ¦Okay, goodbye, Miss Nora.â After the loquacious Wayne finished speaking, he couldnât help but add, âIâm going to write a letter of resignation now. Iâll email you later.â
Nora promptly hung up.
Then, Justin said, âWhile youâre here, would you like to visit Irene?â
Whatever happened to Henry, even though she was not related by blood, Irene was his aunt and, in fact, she had been very good to Nora since she was young After recognizing the Smiths, Nora never showed up again. Since she was in California, there was no reason not to visit her.
At this thought, she nodded.
Justin turned the car around and drove to the Blacks following Noraâs instructions.
On the way, Justin got out of the car to buy some fruit as they passed a fruit stand. After getting into the car, he suddenly lowered his voice and said, âYes we were followed. After we left your house, someone came in and started looking.â
Nora lowered her eyes. âDo you know who it is?â
Justin said, âMy people are tracking him. Letâs pretend weâve come to California to visit an old friend and not expose anything.â Nora nodded.
âSure.â
Her heart sank.
There were indeed a lot of people who wanted the gene serum.
She lowered her eyes thoughtfully as the car finally arrived at the Blackâs house.
Her aunt, Irene, had married her Uncle Will Black and had a daughter, Lisa Black. This family of three treated Nora very well.
The Blacks lived in a small house, about 140 square feet. It was a small family.
When the two arrived, they saw a few thugs camped out.
Someone was smoking. They were all staring at the stairs.
Seeing them, Nora frowned.
At that moment, a middle-aged man put his head down and went outside to throw out the garbage.
When he came out and saw the thugs, he shrugged his neck and turned to go upstairs. Before he could take two steps, however, someone chased after him and shouted, âWill Black, when are you going to pay us back the money you owe us?â
Will Black?
Nora, who had not gotten out of the car, was slightly stunned.
Was this hunchbacked man her uncle? But what had happened to make him age so much in just a few months?
She frowned and thought thoughtfully as Will said, âI donât have any money!â
âYou donât have any money. Doesnât your family have a small business? You can turn the company over to us.â
Will angrily shouted, âI wonât do it!â.
The person immediately stepped forward and grabbed him by the collar. âStop stalling. Iâm telling you the Smiths wonât save you.â
Will was outraged. âOn what grounds are you forcing me to sell my company! Iâm not selling it! Is there still a law in this world?â
âWhy?â the thug spat and continued, âYou have offended the Smiths! Let me tell you that we have the Hunt Corporation backing us! Miss Smith is President Huntâs fiancée! We have to help President Hunt vent his anger!â
Will was incredulous. âThis, this was instructed by Nora? No, itâs impossible!â
âWhy not? Henry treated her very well, but at the end of the day, sheâs not his biological daughter. She must be holding a grudge. Besides, Henry is already dead, so why insist? Besides, her family made a fortune back then with Ireneâs dowry, so the Blacks also belong to Miss Smith. Why canât we help Miss Smith get the company back?â
Will was stunned and speechless.
Just then⦠âAhem, ahem.â
Irene walked out the door with a bad expression. It was clear she was cornered by these thugs.
She took a deep breath and finally said, âGive it to him!â.
Will was anxious. âIrene, weâ¦â
Irene sighed. âHeâs right. My brother stole from Yvette, and I took her money when I got married, too. The company might as well be hers. We owe Nora too much â¦â
