Chapter 1142 Her fingers worked on the keyboard quickly as she typed to reply, [Tell William that he doesn't have to work on my illness anymore. There's no use. I only need Guy's blood for another fifty days or so, and I'll recover.] 1 In other words, 50 days would have passed and all efforts would be futile, even if William worked very hard and succeeded.
When Uncle Sam saw her reply, he phoned her right away. "Charmine, why don't you say this to William yourself? I can't talk him out of it. Oh, Charmine wants to speak with you..." said Uncle Sam to William in the end.
Charmine grew taut.
She was still inside the Villa and just gotten out of the bedroom, yet Uncle Sam asked her to talk to William?
Anthony was already jealous of Guy, and if he overheard this...
She looked back and saw that Anthony was not out yet. She quickly walked to the balcony by the end of the hallway and put the phone by her ear.
William's voice was instantly heard on the other end.
"Don't listen to Uncle Sam, Charmine. I didn't do this research for you; I'm just interested in this toxin. Iâm a medical researcher, and I always liked to research challenging topics..." "Oh, well, take your time-thereâs no hurry. My illness will be cured in a month or so," replied Charmine.
On the other side of the call, William's large hand halted.
It would be cured in a month or so? He would not be able to come up with an antidote within a month. 1 If he carried on, it would not help her anyway...
"Ah, yes, you were looking for Uncle Sam earlier?" he spoke.
"I wanted to ask if he has any medical technology design related to blood research. If he does, I'm hoping he can attend this Cultural Olympics on Burlington's behalf to bring pride to the country!" replied Charmine straightforwardly.
Fearing that Anthony could come over at any time, she said, "Return the phone to Uncle Sam. I'll talk with him." "Okay. If you need any help, just phone me anytime," bade William before he returned the phone to Uncle Sam.
"Charmine, you mentioned the Cultural Olympics?" asked Uncle Sam. "You want Burlington to win it? Don't worry; the Association has prepared something. We won't embarrass ourselves in events like this. We won't have any trouble getting in the top three!"
Charmine was relieved to hear Uncle Sam's voice again.
She said, "Itâs not just that. Guy has developed anemia since he transfused blood actively, and I hope to attract the people from M35 Lab to come over. You have the most advanced technologies in Burlington. Just bring some over."
Although Anthony said he would ask Nial to do the research, the opening was tomorrow. How would they have enough time?
It would be more promising to have more hands working on it.
Uncle Sam thought for a while before saying, "I almost forgot! I happened to have done an experiment related to hematology half a year ago, and it might just capture their attention if I showcase the result. However, the project is only half-completed, so I'll need more time to work on it. Oh... What are you doing, William? Why did you remove all of the poison documents?" "You're right," he began, "this poison is too rare, and the findings wonât be too effective. Since we're not in a hurry anyway, Iâll work on the others."
Uncle Sam was dumbfounded.
He had been saying this to Willaim a few days now yet he never listened, insisting on working on it, yet he was willing to drop it all just because Charmine was the one who told him it was futile and to concentrate his work elsewhere? 1 "William is meant to work for you!" he blurted. "If only I knew how much he listens to you, I wouldâve asked you two to have a chat."
When Charmine heard that, she frowned. Why would Uncle Sam say that out of the blue?
