Chapter 158: Chapter 158: Not Qualified to Be Compared with Her (2)
"My sister may not have the best temper, but she’s actually quite nice." Claire North’s eyes shimmered with a dark gleam, yet she spoke with a gentle demeanor: "It seems Director Woods really likes my sister. I heard recently that her assistant went to the pharmacy department and fetched a lot of good herbs. Maybe this time, my sister truly might win the competition."
"No way!" Aaron Warren blurted out: "If it weren’t for her catching a handle from last time, Raina North would still be sorting herbs!"
Claire North felt a surge of hatred; this Aaron Warren is such a tool, messing up such a good opportunity!
If he hadn’t tried to blame that pile of spoiled herbs from improper storage on Raina North, it wouldn’t have blown up like this, allowing her to seize the opportunity to obtain the right to freely allocate herbs.
But regardless of how angry she was, she had to endure it; she still needed Aaron Warren to fight on her behalf.
She sighed and put on a saddened expression: "Actually, I really hope my sister will do well. It’s just that every member of our research group is particularly eager to have an exchange with Ghost Doctor Nowhere. But before anything even started, we lost our qualification. I... I really feel guilty."
As she spoke, tears began to fall.
Seeing the goddess of his heart cry, Aaron Warren’s heart nearly broke, and he quickly comforted her: "Claire, don’t cry, it’s not your fault, it’s all because of that treacherous woman, Raina North.
You don’t have to worry; when the research results come out, I’ll find a way to invite the prestigious experts from the Veridian Institute of Medicine. In front of so many experts, even if Raina North bribed Wanda Woods, even the entire Institute of Medicine, the result will be fair.
It’s ridiculous for a half-baked novice who has only read a few medical books and thinks she can talk about researching new medicines! As a member of the Institute, I absolutely won’t allow such absurdity to happen!"
Claire North couldn’t help but curl her lips slightly, reassured by Aaron Warren’s words.
With Aaron Warren as her weapon, Raina North will definitely have a hard time. As for the result of the competition, she didn’t believe Raina North could truly surpass her, the direct disciple of Master Zane.
Raina North would never be able to compare with her; she was destined to be trampled underfoot for life and look up to her!
...
The Hawthorne Group.
Aidan Lynch held an iPad, quickly reporting the progress to Elias Hawthorne while taking notes of his instructions. Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly remembered something.
"President Hawthorne, tomorrow is the seventieth birthday of Old Master North. The North Family sent an invitation; do you plan to go?"
Elias Hawthorne glanced over lightly: "Since when did you start asking about such trivial matters?"
"Uh..." Aidan Lynch couldn’t help but mutter: "Well, Mr. North mentioned that the Madam wouldn’t be attending either?"
Don’t think he didn’t know that this aloof guy had long been secretly pining for Raina North.
He even personally went to The Veridian Institute of Medicine and actively blocked her.
Elias Hawthorne paused: "Raina North is going too?"
Indeed, Gideon North must have known of his interest in Raina North. Coupled with Baby steadfastly supporting her, given Gideon’s nature, there’s no way he wouldn’t bring Raina North, who could bring great honor and benefits to him, back to the North Family.
Raina North could disregard everyone else, but for Old Master North, the only one who treated her well, she would surely return for his birthday celebration.
