Chapter 299
Camille immediately took her assistant’s phone and glanced at it.
The number one trending topic was “Dr. Shadow published a new academic paper“.
She felt a bit guilty but maintained a gentle smile on her face.
“No,” she said before calmily returning the phone to her assistant.
Her assistant, Cory, was puzzled.
“Your account’s not hacked? Did you publish it? I thought someone maliciously used your account to publish some random academic papers since you’ve been concentrating on Lucifuge’s Manual lately.”
Camille had indeed been so engrossed in studying the Lucifuge’s Manual that she barely had time for anything else. She had even started to lose hair from working day and night.
But no one knew she wasn’t Dr. Shadow, not even her parents. So, she couldn’t let it slip
“I researched the medicines at night.”
Camille smiled.
“You’re so amazing
Cory’s face was full of admiration.
“You could rely on your looks but choose to rely on your skills. And even though you’ve become a miracle doctor, you still work so hard. You’re truly an angel”
Camille could only reply with a smile.
“Alright now. We’re done for today. Go rest.”
Thank you, Camille. You should rest, too.”
Once Cory left, Camille quickly logged into Divine Forum to check the new paper published by Dr. Shadow. She printed it out and read everything carefully.
She considered herself a genius in the medical field, but she felt inferior when compared to Dr. Shadow,
Dr. Shadow was stalled in both modern and alternative medicine, and she could make soch rare and effective drugs, Camille was still far behind her. After reading the paper, Camille immediately cross–referenced the mentioned medicinal materials and sent someone to find them. She planned to research medicine at night and acupuncture during the day.
She believed that with enough effort, she would one day be on par with Dr. Shadow or even surpass her.
Douglas stopped the car at Cavenridge’s school gate and addressed the person in the back seat.
“Ms. Youngworth, we’ve arrived at school.”

Hera put her phone away and was about to open the car de
She turned back and saw his handsome face suddenly approaching her. She froze for a moment, thinking he would kiss her again. So, she instinctively lowered her head slightly.
But the expected kiss didn’t come. Instead, his long, slender fingers removed the glasses she had put on in the morning and hadn’t taken off
Bernard saw her slightly disappointed expression and gently brushed his lips against her forehead as if to satisfy her.
“Good luck with your exam. I’ll pick y
you up after school,” he said magnetically,
Hera thought he was doing this on purpose to get back at her for teasing him that morning. Unwilling to back down, she grabbed his collar and pulled him toward her. Then, she planted a kiss on his cheek.
Berard was stunned for a moment. Then, a tire seemed to ignite within him when he looked into her eyes. One of his Large hands gripped her slender waist, preventing her from escaping. He lifted her chin with his other hand and gently brushed her rosy lips.
“You’re not allowed to date, right?”
Douglas witnessed this scene through the rearview mirror and immediately looked away. He felt he could skip lunch since he was full from watching
their interactions.
Hera felt his warm breath on her face, causing her to blush hard. His gaze was so intense it seemed like he would devour her the next moment.
