Irene sharply noticed that Dr.Pitt was not being exactly friendly, and she turned toward Dr.Kramer—the

other Mead Clinic representative—with a quizzical look.

"Hotmesh Research just published a research paper with our research data and made it available

globally," Dr.Kramer said.

"What?!" Irene exclaimed while trying to keep herself composed.

Dr.Pitt was staring sharply at her regardless.

"You didn't know?"

"I didn't," Irene calmly replied.

"Is that so?"

Dr.Pitt was clearly suspicious, and kept probing.

"Didn't you sneak off with the key portions of our research data and give it to Hotmesh?"

She stared closely at Irene's face, because if it were Irene, she would definitely turn nervous or react.

However, Irene was an excellent doctor, and naturally had the composure to keep herself together.

Looking Dr.Pitt in the eye, she said, "I didn't."

Dr.Pitt did not give up just yet.

"I remembered asking you to compile our research data, and you would have everything in your

possession at the time.That is when you could extract the key parts and bring them here."

Irene remained at ease.

"I would never do that."

"You're Zidonian.You have every reason to do that,"

Dr.Pitt pointed out.

"But I'm a doctor at the Mead Clinic before that.I've said as much before—"

"Dr.Tanner, you did not follow the script at the forum today, and everything you said was clearly leaning

in favor of Zidonia.There's an internal investigation being conducted as we speak, and we'll find out

what happened soon enough."

Irene's hands clenched at her sides just then and Dr.Pitt noticed it.

Her gaze darkened—Irene was clearly feeling guilty.

Dr.Pitt heaved a deep sigh just then.

Though she felt sympathy, she could not afford to be lenient — even perspective mattered when it

came to compassion.

It was the way of the world.

If one was unable to change it due to their own weakness, they just had to fulfill their own role.

"Dr.Pitt, I..."

Dr.Pitt's phone rang just then, and she answered it.

Her expression turned grim after she listened to the other person, and she even slid a glance at Irene

before answering, ''Understood.

"Yes, I'll get it done."

"Yeah."

Her tone was solemn, and when she hung up, she put away her phone in silence for a long while

before turning to Irene.

''They are done with the internal investigation over there, but it seems that you are innocent.I'm sure I

have been a little harsh, so please don't hold it against me."

Irene was actually confused right then.

There was no doubt that she had used Dr.Pitt's clearance to gather the research data...

How did the internal investigation come up short? Was someone helping her?

"Well, I haven't had my dinner, so you two are joining me," Dr.Pitt said, rising to her feet.

They all headed to the hotel's restaurant.

While Dr.Pitt left for the washroom, Irene asked Dr.Kramer, "When did Hotmesh publish the data?"

"Didn't you check your phone?" Dr.Kramer asked in return, but Irene certainly did not.

"We only found out after we were called about it.I mean, we are the leading research center for

cardiovascular diseases, but Hotmesh somehow beat us to publish that data.What is that if not a slap

on our collective faces? Can we even maintain our reputation from now on?"

Irene lowered her gaze.

"Yeah," she agreed.

She had never expected Hotmesh Research to publish the papers right away.

Instead, she was hoping that they would use the data given to further develop the fully artificial heart

concept.

She was actually disappointed that things had turned out like this— being the first to develop an

artificial heart mattered less than actually developing it successfully to save people, so that Zidonia did

not need to be dependent on another country.

She knew that Isaac had already become a shareholder of Mead Clinic, but she risked it and stole the

data anyway just so that Zidonia could develop their own artificial heart with the data.

Isaac's stake might mean rebates, but that would still be limited.

And no rebate would ever trump the confidence of having the technology themselves and not being

subservient to others.

Hotmesh's announcement would only serve to make every other country wary about keeping their own

medical research and development to themselves—nothing good would come of it.

Irene sighed lengthily.
