    Chapter 810 Showing Up


    Butterfly knew how cruel Nichs could be, so she was merely venting her frustration vocally. She


    immediately cowered back when she noticed he was ring 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 re when I was just mocking.”


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


    Richard snorted icily when the door mmed shut.


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


    they wanted.


    Nichs shook his head.


    “Don''t do that. Sophie is quite protective of her as she works for Sophie. She will me me if


    something happens to her,” he exined.


    Richard nodded in acknowledgment.


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


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


    “Got it, Boss.”


    Richard couldn''t help but feel bad for Nichs, 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 ck 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 vigntly guarded by special forces from Anndur.


    Sophie pulled out her phone to call Arius instead of exining 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 andeter,” 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 Anndur 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 nce.


    “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


    aplishment.


    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, someonemented, “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 youngdy apanying 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 Anndur 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, Anndur''s president had to call Barney personally and engage in a lengthy process of


    persuasion before Barney consented toe 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 youngdy 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 ess to many ces.


    “Got it,” came Sophie''s reply.


    She wasn''t an inquisitive person, so she wasn''t tempted to visit that ce since Arius had warned her


    against it.


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


    Upon their arrival at Barney''sboratory, 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 exined 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 ce,” Barney exined.


    “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 Anndur citizens still have no idea how contagious the


    virus is. They are still going on with their daily life. Attempts to control the poption and their activities


    have, as of yet, been unsessful,” he revealed. The citizens of Anndur strongly believed in the


    power of freedom and refused to ept any form of restriction on their movement.


    Sophie quickly got to work. On the other hand, Nichs showed up to meet Tristan before thetter


    could go to him
