Chapter 855

The Runaway Groom

Yolanda blurted, “Then what killed him?”

“Poison,” Irene replied.

The room was suddenly silent, but they were skeptical.

Poison? That was simply unbelievable!

“What poison?” Yolanda asked with a clearly skeptical tone, and even her reaction was basically asking
if Irene was trying to avoid responsibility.

After all, they knew that Irene had insisted on performing the surgery on Dennis, and she must bear
responsibility for his death.

Still, Irene patiently explained, “I hope everything I say here will stay in this room. We’re gathering
evidence, but we don’t have everything yet, which is why I must ask for your silence. If we make too
much noise, we’d alert the culprits—right now, no one knows that I’ve already discovered that Dennis
was poisoned.”

Pausing, she continued, “I know you won’t believe me, and you’d think that I’m trying to excuse myself
from this responsibility. So, I’m obliged to tell you that I’m not—everyone must know that we had
technical issues during our research, and we only entered the test phase thanks to Professor Lane
joining our ranks. Before he did, New Suns Pharma tried to recruit him, and even blackmailed him to do
it. But Professor Lane joined us in the end.”

“I should also explain that the market potential for artificial hearts is immense, but while our research
center is funded by our government, News Suns Pharma is a private enterprise. All they want is the
money, and poaching Professor Lane from them was no different from poaching their golden goose.



That is why they must at least prevent our research from succeeding, while they make something
marketable in the meantime… I’ve even heard that they were continuing their development despite
losing Professor Lane. So, if we announce our success now, we’d capture the market even if they
succeed later. This is the reason they were willing to resort to murder.”

The room was silent as they thought about Irene’s words.

Finn was the first to break the silence. “None of you believe Director Spencer, do you? She insisted on
the surgery, and you all know that she’s doing it to save Director Turner. We’ve been working together
for so long, and none of you trust her character—”

“Shut up, Finn. Who says we don’t believe her?” someone snapped, cutting him short. “You think you’re
the only nice guy in the hospital, that the rest of us are unreasonable?”

“That’s right,” someone else echoed. “If someone is so despicable that they want our years of research
to go to waste, we need to show solidarity and stand against them.”

“Yes! Yes! We stand together!” Yolanda exclaimed.

Finn turned toward her just then. “When did you grow a conscience?”

Yolanda rolled her eyes. “Please. I’ve always had one.”

Finn smiled but said nothing.

…

After that, Irene asked someone to bring her the observation records of the goat with the artificial heart,
which was still doing well.



It had been more than a month since its transplant, and it was suffering from no major issues.
Moreover, its survival was actually proof of its success.

Closing the notebook, she told Finn, “We can stop monitoring the goat for now.”

Finn nodded. “Are we going to keep it with us?”

“For now,” Irene replied, issuing instructions on what to do in her absence before leaving.

However, she had just stepped out of the entrance when she spotted Neil waiting to intercept her.

She turned to leave, but Neil saw her anyway and started yelling, “You’re a quack doctor, Irene
Spencer! You killed my father, and you’ll pay for it with your life—”

The yelling abruptly stopped.

Irene turned and saw him floored!
