The Runaway Groom

Chapter 494

Dr.Wells, the chief of the hospital, was telling Dr.Pitt, 'The orders from above are that our research is not to be revealed to Zidonia.Yes, our new Zidonian shareholder had made us agree to take part in their forum at all, and it was out of our hands, but our country's efforts should be kept here.Would we still have an edge over them if we announce our findings there?"

Dr.Pitt was sharp enough to tell that it was not just the hospital wanting to keep things under wraps—there was more at stake than what she could see.

Meanwhile, Dr.Wells was still ranting in frustration about how things had been mishandled.

"Also, Dr.Tanner may have contributed greatly, and it's almost beyond question that she should be sent as a representative, but did you forget that she's Zidonian? Where do you think her loyalties lie? I'm sure you know, so why choose her? You should have hidden it from her in the first place! You're basically asking for it!"

"I just thought that she is the right person," Dr.Pitt admitted.

"I didn't think that far ahead."

"She's already an attending physician now, so stop letting her steal the spotlight or she'll get out of control.She's outstanding — keeping her will help our research, but if we allow her to rise beyond our control..."

Dr.Pitt suddenly said quietly, "Actually, I've asked her to prepare the progress report on our research to bring it to Zidonia.She's probably done by now..."

It was as if she knew Dr.Wells would throw a fit, and it happened just as she thought it would.

"What were you thinking?!"

Dr.Wells scowled.
