Shaun certainly remembered this niece. She was indeed beautiful, sharp, and sweet-talking, making her very likable. If they could actually nt her in Goodwin & Co. to get close ton, there was a real chance she could climb the ranks.


    "Alright, tell Yvette to get ready. I''ll make a call and set it up," Shaun agreed.


    Miranda was immediately overjoyed. "Don''t worry! I guarantee Yvette will be more than happy to do it."


    Shaun figured that making a strategic move like this couldn''t hurt; it might just pay off when they least expected it.


    Miranda thought to herself: Eleanor might be exceptional, but her niece was younger! She could almost picture the glorious future where her niece married into the Goodwin family. When that day came, her sister''s family would have to worship her as the ultimate matchmaker.


    The next morning.


    Eleanor headed straight to theb. She had a sudden burst of inspirationst night, and she needed to test the hypothesis immediately.


    Just as she arrived at her office, her phone rang. She nced at the screen and paused when she saw the name.


    It was Xavier Vaughn.


    Eleanor answered the call. "Hello, Xavier."


    "Eleanor, am I interrupting anything?" Xavier''s voice was as gentle as always.


    "No, I just got to the office. Is something wrong?" she asked.


    "My mother''s condition seems to be worsening. The medication isn''t working at all. I wanted to ask how your research is progressing," Xavier''s tone wasced with heavy concern.


    "Xavier, our team has actually made some headway recently. We are currently moving into animal trials."


    "How is it? Are the results significant?" Xavier''s voice betrayed an irrepressible urgency.


    "Yes, the results are highly significant," Eleanor said, her own voice carrying a note of excitement.


    She clearly heard his breath hitch on the other end. "Really? Eleanor, are you sure?"


    "The data is rock solid, and the initial repeat trials have been very promising," Eleanor confirmed. "At the very least, it''s a highly hopeful direction."


    "That''s wonderful... that''s truly wonderful!" Xavier''s voice choked with emotion. "Eleanor... but I just don''t know if my mom can hold on long enough for your drug to reach clinical trials."


    Eleanorpletely understood how he felt. "Xavier, we''re going to elerate the research pace and push toplete the pre-clinical studies as quickly as possible. I''ll let you know the moment there''s news."


    "If you need any support at all, just say the word. Funding, equipment, anything—I will back youpletely," Xavier offered immediately.


    "I have plenty of funding right now, so that won''t be necessary." Eleanor thought for a moment before asking, "Once weplete the preliminary safety assessments, would your mother


    consider participating,


    early clinical trials? Of course, it carries significant risks."


    "Okay, I''ll discuss it with my mother. I''ll contact you the moment I have an answer." "Alright."


    They discussed a few more details about his mother''s condition before ending the call.


    Eleanor threw on herb coat, a


    profound sense of responsibility and


    purpose swelling in her chest. She could feet the desperate hope


    Xavier''s voice just now. It was true watching the person you love most slowly forget you piece by piece was an agonizing tragedy.


    Eleanor took a deep breath,partmentalized her personal emotions, and headed straight toward the testing area.


    Meanwhile, in the HR department of


    Goodwin & Co., Shaun Wace''s


    assistant dropped off a resume with


    the HR manager. By sheer


    In


    coincidence, there was a vacant assistant position right next to and Yvette was immediately assigned to it.
