Victor frowned, silent for a moment before he asked,
"You're sure this Ms. Thorne isn't from the medical field?"
"Positive. Folks in Jindale City said she only did a year at college, and it wasn't even anything close to medicine.
Her family's in business-not a single doctor among them. But she does seem to have a knack for child
psychology."
The assistant paused, then suggested,
"Should I call Miss Stevenson now and get more details?"
"No need. I'll just ask Sabrina myself."
At that moment, Sabrina was still over in Jindale City. When Victor's call cthrough, she sounded thrilled.
"Grandpa! Missedalready?"
Victor's face was still stern, but seeing his granddaughter, he couldn't help but
smile a little, feigning annoyance.
"Miss you? Not a chance!"
Sabrina giggled, "But | miss you, Grandpa!"
"Oh, you do? Well, just don't go causingany more trouble, you hear? Did you
get into it with Tarquin's wife again?"
Sabrina frowned. "You mean Elysia?"
"I don't care what her nis. All | know is she's Tarquin's wife."
Sabrina was clearly annoyed now.
"She's something else, isn't she? Complaining aboutall the way to you! | didn't pick a fight with her, | just

"She throws her weight around just because her husband's a big shot. Acts like she's royalty and I'm supposed to
bow and scrape!"
"Sure, the Bradfords are a powerful family, but that doesn't mean the Stevensons are pushovers! If | just rolled
over and took it, it'd be an embarrassment to all of us. No way I'm letting that happen."
Sabrina wasn't exactly known for her medical skills or her people skills-but she knew how to play her grandpa.
Victor was highly respected in the medical field. He was honest, humble, and genuinely valued talent.
But as the head of the Medical & Pharmaceutical Association, he was surrounded by people eager to flatter him.
Over the years, all that praise had gotten to his head a bit, and he couldn't stand to hear anyone say a bad word
about the Stevenson family.
Plus, with Sabrina being his only granddaughter, he was always a little soft on her.
"She gave you attitude?"
"Yeah, she's always looking down her nose at me."
"But why? You two barely even know each other."
Sabrina didn't miss a beat.
"She's just jealous, Grandpa. Sure, her husband's loaded, but at the end of the day, money's all he's got."
"But look at me-I've got you, the head of the Medical &

work does way more for people than her husband's money ever could."
"Plus, she's not even as good a doctor as | am. She's jealous, that's all!"
"Even if | didn't have the Stevenson nor you backingup, | could make it on my own."
"But her? If she lost her husband, she'd just be another trophy wife with nothing going for her!"
Victor's tone turned serious. "What about that antidote formula from last time? What's the story there?"
Sabrina lied without even blinking. "She stole my research, Grandpa!"
Victor hesitated. "But during the last online meeting, nobody mentioned anything about stealing research."
Sabrina huffed, “I was afraid her husband would go after the Stevensons if | said anything. That's why | kept
quiet."
"Then why grumble about it behind her back?"

Victor went quiet for a moment. "Sabrina, you're not lying to Grandpa, are you?"
Sabrina sounded indignant. "Of course not! Why would I lie to you?"
