Chapter 270 Research Breakthrough


    After checking on the baby, Freya went downstairs.


    Downstairs, Braxton was sitting on the sofa chatting with Sylvia. Freya caught snippets of the


    conversation, hearing mentions of the Monaghan Group.


    As she descended the stairs, both Braxton and Sylvia simultaneously changed the subject.


    “Mom,” Freya greeted. “Why haven’t you gone to work today, Brax?”


    “Isabe’s family is having a gathering today, so I asked Ayden to look after thepany. I need to


    make a trip to the Parkers’ter,” Braxton answered..


    Braxton knew that Freya had been busy researching his illness at home recently, yet his heart still


    ached. when he saw the dark circles under her eyes.


    “Do you want toe with me to the Parker Residence? It might help you rx a bit. After all, the


    Parkers. know you,” he suggested.


    Freya took a sip of water from her ss. “I’ll pass. I’m at a critical point in my research.”


    Sylvia cast a skeptical nce at both of them. “Frey, what research are you working on?”


    Freya smiled. “You’ll know soon enough.”


    After breakfast, Freya saw Braxton off at the door and reminded him, “The weather forecast says it’s


    going to snow today. Drive slowly.”


    “Got it.” Braxton ruffled Freya’s hair affectionately.


    After that, Freya chatted with her mother for a while and immediately immersed herself in her research.


    The top floor of Trinity Club was Chris’ private space. His office had changed entirely at this time. The


    original solid wood desk had been removed, and the entire top floor now resembled a presidential


    suite.

    Mikael and Chris were seated on the sofa, looking at the man standing by the floor-to-ceiling window.


    “Radley,e back and continue ying cards. What are you staring at?” Chris’ gaze followed


    Radley’s to the night sky, where the falling snowkes stood out vividly under the lights.


    “It’s snowing.”


    “I know. I got a text on my phone today,” Chris said. “When did you be such a romantic, taking


    time to watch the snow?”


    “Snowing means spring ising soon,” Radleymented as he returned to the table.


    The doctor had said that Freya should not be subjected to any stress during the early stages of her


    memory recovery, as it could lead to confusion and her getting lost in the past.


    Radley felt extremely sorry for her.


    Radley felt deeply concerned.


    He forced himself to recall the bits and pieces of those two years.


    That kind of pain had resurfaced in Freya once again, and it was all because of his arrogance back


    then.


    He even hesitated to look at her now. If only he had taken the time to talk with her back then, things


    would’ve likely been so much better!


    Then again, the doctor also noted that she’d be fine in three, four months.


    Now, nearly four months had passed, and he was eager to be by her side.


    Chris finished shuffling the cards. “Radley, how much longer are you going to upy my office? Unlike


    you two, my base isn’t in Caltun. I rely on this ce for a foothold.”


    “Just a while longer. There’s still turmoil outside, isn’t there?” Radley replied coldly.


    Mikael smiled as he yed a pair of three. “Your move is quite clever. Anyone with ulterior motives


    should reveal themselves by now. Aren’t you going to deal with them?”


    Radley’s gaze deepened. “I have another goal.”


    “What goal?” Mikael asked curiously.


    Radley yed two cards, his expression subdued. “I found out earlier that someone has been secretly


    investigating Freya. These individuals have concealed themselves well, and I still haven’t found out


    who they are. But at that time, I was out in the open while they lurked in the shadows, and I suffered


    some setbacks.


    “There’s actually someone in this world you fail to dig into?!” Chris, chuckling, doubted with surprise.


    Mikael, on the other hand, frowned, his expression bing serious. “If they’re investigating Freya,


    the Kaufmanns will definitely get involved. Do you have no leads from their side?”


    “No, not four months ago. At that time, Freya had only sensed their presence,” Radley replied calmly.


    The Monaghan Group and the Kaufmann Group reigned over Caltun. If even they couldn’t uncover


    them. it could only mean that there was likely a terrifying undercurrent beneath the calm surface!


    After oveing the final research hurdle, Freya personally visited the researchboratory.


    As soon as she entered, she found the thin, elderly researcher, Fabian, among the researchers, looking


    quite delighted.


    “Miss Kaufmann, you’re here. Did Professor Han note again this time?” Fabian asked.


    Freya forced a smile and replied, “Professor Han is busy, but he did help solve the challenges we


    faced.


    In the room, the other three researchers also approached.


    “Miss Kaufmann, are you here to inspect the work?” Maddox smiled.


    Lucius added, “Miss Kaufmann, the information Professor Han sent yesterday was very useful.


    We’ve all been inspired, and if all goes well, we should have our research results by the end of this


    week.”


    Freya smiled. She had originally held only a 20% hope of sess when she began this research. But


    things had been progressing surprisingly smoothly.


    The medicine she had developed now had the potential to provide aplete cure.


    It just required a longer period of consumption, ideally inbination with surgery.


    Fabian beamed with excitement. “If we announce this achievement to the world, it will definitely cause


    a huge sensation. We will truly be famous!”


    At 59 years old, Fabian had always yed it safe and hadn’t achieved anything significant in his


    lifetime. However, he was dependable for handling smaller tasks. But seeing Fabian’s excitement,


    Freya interrupted him, “We can’t release these results publicly yet. I need to conduct some experiments


    and confirm the findings before making them known.”


    “What does a young assistant like you understand? This kind of thing doesn’t need practical testing.


    We’ve simted its effects countless times in our minds and experiments; it’s foolproof,” Fabian


    imed confidently.


    Freya sighed, knowing her wordscked authority.


    “It’s not my decision but Professor Han’s.”


    As soon as Professor Han’s name was mentioned, Fabian fell silent, although his expression


    revealed his dissatisfaction.


    Freya arranged the subsequent steps of the experiments and assigned responsibilities.


    Because the experiments were crucial, she didn’t involve Fabian, who had average skills.


    Fabian turned grim. I’ve merely made ament, and now this assistant won’t give me any work! How


    will people know I’m also involved in this project if my name doesn’t appear on the published


    experimental data?!


    Fabian’s gaze fell on the materials that Freya had brought.


    He was nearing retirement age without any significant academic achievements to his name.


    What if. What if I’m the sole author of this research?!


    At that, his eyes scanned the various instruments in the room.


    When the timees, he could im that he used their equipment for his research. Then, if they tried


    to steal his findings, he could easily use them of giarism.


    Who can truly discern the truth from the lie? Also, whoever speaks up first will be recognized as the


    originator.
