Chapter 1134 Cut Ties With the Science Academy

After hearing Nicole's tone, Gina knew that Nicole had heard the entire conversation in the room justnow. She decided to drop the act.

She placed the tea set on the table and looked at Nicole with a solemn expression. "Nicole, times havechanged. Mr. White has passed away, and there's no need for us to continue the grudges of theprevious generation."

Nicole couldn't help but laugh at Gina's lofty reason. She chuckled sarcastically at the irony of thissituation.

"Gina, you've spent more time with Master White than I have. You should know why he despised theYael Family so much. It wasn't for personal reasons; it was because of the unforgivable atrocities theycommitted!"

Nicole's tone grew heavier, putting pressure on Gina.

Even so, Gina persisted. "Nicole, the science academy has gained a reputation in Durobrivae. There isnothing disgraceful about collaborating with them. Those are outdated thoughts. A partnership betweenthe research center and the science academy now will benefit both parties."

"Benefit?" Nicole laughed, her gaze falling on the tea set on the table. She then pointed at it and asked,"Do you mean this kind of benefit?"

Gina's expression soured. With her face glum, she tightened her grip and answered, "Nicole, theresearch center can't remain out of touch with the present forever. The collaboration between me andthe science academy is only about the production of some medications. It benefits everyone."

As Nicole looked at how self-righteous Gina was, she couldn't help but laugh in exasperation.

"You are Master White's student, Gina. You should respect him. When our master established theresearch center, he explicitly stated that it should have no association with the science academy. Youare the person in charge. How can you not remember that?"

Gina looked embarrassed after being criticized by Nicole.

She had worked tirelessly for the research center for years, only to end up receiving a barrage ofcriticism from Nicole.

Nicole closed her eyes. She had witnessed firsthand how the Yael Family conducted experiments ontheir employees when she was with White. People who were once lively and energetic were tormentedinto a state of mental exhaustion. Even if they were saved, they had to live the rest of their lives withdementia.

Those shocking scenes were still vivid in Nicole's mind. She could never forget what had happened.

So, over the years, she had avoided anything related to the science academy or the Yael Family.

But never in her wildest dreams did she imagine that the research center which she and their masterhad established would now have a connection with the science academy.

Gina was several years older than Nicole, and she could be considered a senior at the research center.As someone who had grown accustomed to her high position over the years, she couldn't tolerate

Nicole's insults.

Her face immediately darkened as she roared, "Nicole, think carefully about what you want!"

"It's simple. Cut ties between the research center and the science academy," Nicole said firmly. Therecould be no compromise on this matter.

Gina balled up her fasts. Considering the close collaboration between the research center and thescience academy, cutting ties with them would result in immeasurable losses.

How dare an ignorant chick tell me what to do!

However, the research center was currently under Nicole's name. Gina couldn't do anything if Nicoletruly wanted to take it back.

Thinking of this, Gina could only temporarily compromise. She took a deep breath, and her eyesgradually cleared as if she had finally understood something.

"Nicole, I've thought about it for a while, and you're right. Mr. White did say that the research centershould have no dealings with the science academy. I have overstepped my line these years. I onlywant to research and develop more medicines to save patients."

Gina's voice lowered as she slowly said those words. An unpleasant smile then tugged at the cornersof her mouth as she continued, "I've thought about it after your reminder. I will cut ties with the scienceacademy, so you don't need to worry about it."
