Jennifer was shoved into the changing room and instructed to put on her uniform.
Sarah followed her in, casting a quick glance. “Hurry up and get into that cleaner’s outfit. Don’t waste any time.”
Jennifer noticed the two women watching her intently. It was clear that the Hargreaves family had been preparing for this.
moment.
As she shifted her weight, pain shot through her body.
Rolling up her pant leg, she saw the bruises on her leg, swollen and angry.
At that moment, Jennifer realized Millie would have happily broken her leg if she could.
A wave of sorrow washed over her.
She had never fought back against Millie, even when Mary stirred up trouble; she had always tried to help.
Jennifer never imagined that Millie would turn so cruelly against her.
With a blank expression, Jennifer slipped into the cleaner’s uniform. Though it was still a white sterilization suit, it was

clearly different from what the staff wore.

Sarah, on the other hand, donned a researcher’s outfit, complete with an ID badge on her wrist.
“See this?” Sarah flaunted, gesturing to her badge. “Only official researchers get one of these.”
Jennifer said, her tone dripping with sarcasm, “Is your research topic how to be a scheming woman?”
“We both know the only reason Dylan’s special medicine has made any progress is because of me.”
Sarah’s expression shifted slightly. “And? No one believes you, not even Millie. You’re just a footnote in Dylan’s work, and everyone knows it.”
Moreover, she believed that Jennifer had merely stumbled upon a breakthrough in Dylan’s research by pure chance.
Jennifer finished changing and decided she wanted to see the lab herself.
After all these years, she was curious about the research process, especially since she wouldn’t have the chance to see it again.
With indifference in her eye, she limped out, dragging her feet.
Just a few steps in, Sarah deliberately bumped into her, causing Jennifer to lose her balance and crash to the floor.

Sarah said with feigned innocence, glancing back, “Oh, I’m so sorry! You really should pay more attention to where you’re walking. Cleaners aren’t supposed to block the path, you know?”
Slowly, Jennifer pushed herself off the ground, relieved the floor was made of rubber.
She steadied herself against the wall and continued on.
Millie was already there, eager to see the research on the special medicine.
Dylan, aware of Millie’s intentions, knew it was time to show the Clark family the Hargreaves family’s commitment.
He looked up and spotted Jennifer approaching, a smug smile creeping onto his face. “What you see before you is the experimental research area…
Millie’s excitement was palpable.
Jennifer lingered at the back, taking in the familiar research equipment with a cold smile.
Everything was just as it had been in her past life.
But she knew that unless they improved the experimental processes, the research would never advance.
This was knowledge she had painstakingly acquired.
Jennifer was determined not to help Dylan with any of this

again.
After observing the lab, she felt a sense of relief; she was confident that Dylan wouldn’t make any significant progress moving forward.

Once the tour concluded, Millie eagerly asked, “So when will this special medicine be ready for clinical trials?”
Dylan replied, “That takes time. But since we’ve made some initial progress, I assure you we’ll be ready for clinical trials by the end of the year.”
“So, does that mean my son’s leg will be better by next year?”
Millie’s eyes glistened with tears. She had waited so long for this moment, and it was finally here.
Sarah stepped closer to Dylan, a proud smile on her face. “Dylan, congratulations! It looks like our lab is the only one making progress right now.”
Dylan’s face was plastered with a smug grin.
But his eyes darkened when he caught sight of Jennifer standing at the back of the crowd. “Jennifer, you can come closer to have a look, but don’t you dare touch anything. You’re just an outsider, and you don’t know the first thing about this,” he said, his tone cold.
Jennifer limped forward, her gaze landing on the lab bench.

A mocking smile appeared on her face. “After all this time, you’ve made so little progress. Or, to be more accurate, you haven’t made any progress at all.”
As soon as the words left her mouth, Dylan’s smile vanished.
