“How did the dean die?” Lane asked bluntly.


    Freya replied, “He was poisoned.”


    There was silence below.


    It seemed unbelievable.


    Poisoned?


    That was too incredible.


    “What kind of poison?” Lane’s tone clearly showed disbelief.


    It seemed like everyone was thinking, “Are you trying to avoid responsibility by iming he was poisoned?”


    After all, everyone knew that the surgery was something Freya insisted on.


    If something went wrong, she would have to take responsibility.


    Freya patiently exined, “What I am about to say here today, I hope you can keep it confidential and not spread it around, because there is still some evidence missing. Spread it too widely, and it will startle the snake. No one knows yet, but I have discovered that the dean was poisoned.”


    She paused, “I know you all probably don’t believe that the dean was poisoned to death, thinking that I am trying to avoid responsibility and using it as an excuse. I am telling you responsibly that it’s not the case. You all know that we encountered technical difficulties in our research in the beginning. It was only with Doctor Lee’s help that we were able to enter the experimental stage. Ono Pharmaceutical also wanted to recruit him when Doctor Lee joined us, and they used all kinds of despicable means to pressure him, but Doctor Lee still chose to join us.


    The market for artificial hearts is huge. We are state-funded, but Ono Pharmaceutical is a privatepany. They want to make money. By stealing Doctor Lee from them, we cut off their path to wealth, so they will not let our research seed and enter the market first. I heard that their research did not stop after losing Doctor Lee; it is still ongoing If we announce the sess of our artificial heart now, even if they are sessfulter, we will already have taken over the market, which is why they resorted to such tactics.”


    There was a moment of silence below.


    Everyone was trying to digest Freya’s words!


    Neo broke the silence first, “Do you all not believe in what the dean said? During the surgery, it was the dean’s decision to go through with it, but you all know, the dean did it to save lives. We have spent so much time together, and you still doubt his character…”Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024.


    “Neo, stop it. Who said we don’t believe in the dean? At that time, the dean insisted on the surgery, but you all know as well, the dean did it to save others.”


    “Just so.” Someone echoed, “There are people who want to prevent our years of research from being revealed to the world. Their intentions are sinister. We must stand united in front of everyone.”


    Lane added, “That’s right, stand united!”


    Neo looked at her, “When did you be so righteous like this?”


    Lane rolled her eyes, “I have always been good, okay?”


    Neo smiled without saying anything.


    Freya asked for the records of the experiments conducted on artificial hearts in sheep to be brought to her.


    The sheep were in good condition.


    There had been no major issues during this period. If the sheep hadn’t died for over a month, it could already be considered a sess.


    Freya closed the record book and told Neo, “There is no need to monitor them anymore.”


    Neo nodded, “Are the sheep still being kept here in our hospital?”


    “For now,” Freya replied.


    After discussing a few more work-rted matters, Freya left first.


    As she walked out of the hospital gates, she saw the dean’s son blocking her path.


    She turned back.


    But even so, the dean’s son saw her and started shouting, “Freya, you ipetent doctor, you killed my father. I will make you pay with your life…”


    His shouting suddenly stopped!


    Freya turned around.


    She saw the dean’s son lying on the ground, motionless.
