Josie secretly clenched her bfist/b. Joseph had fully grasped her meaning.

    As previously stated, the two groups of studies were essentially identical.

    The only distinction was that Jeremy’s group incorporated thebined use of acupuncture.

    Originally, director would not have approved both projects to proceed simultaneously.

    It was solely due to Audrey’s persistence, as she consistently sought to use this research to embarrass Jeremy.

    However, in the end. Audrey ended up shooting herself in the foot.

    Under the current circumstances, David’s team might be unable toplete even the fundamental research.

    Ultimately, the project might have to be cancelled, resulting in a total loss of all initial investments.

    Josie found this possible oue to be quite gratifying.

    Audrey was so angry she could burst.

    She had never imagined that, by instructing Hadley to make things difficult for a few reckless students just bto /bembarrass Jeremy, she would ultimately be the one to suffer the consequences.

    She thought, “Why have I been so unfortunate, experiencing continuous setbacks in recent times?”

    She suddenly turned her head and red at David.

    She said, “David, say something. It’s just a research method. If we don’t use it, it’s fine. Does not having this method mean we can’t do research?”

    David fixed his gaze on Josie, who met bhis /beyes with a faint smile and not a trace of fear.

    Audrey might not understand the situation, but Josie believed that David did.

    In this type of research, data from the binitial /bphase was critically important.

    In Josie’s previous life, countless btrials /band over a hundred experiments were conducted to identify relevant. patterns and establish this research methodology.

    Currently, although bJoseph /bhad advanced the schedule, David, given his insight, should be able to understand the dire situation after reviewing their papers.

    Their subsequent research relied entirely on the data obtained in the first phase.

    If this research methodology were not employed and data were instead collected using traditional methods, they would be unlikely to adequately support the subsequent research.

    In other words, their subsequent research would probably fail, band /bin the end, they would gain nothing.

    “You anticipated this oue all along? Was this intentional?” David’s eyes zed with anger. His hatred for Josie had reached its peak.

    Josie shook her bhead /band said, “Of course not, Professor Lawson. Please do not misunderstand me.

    I

    Tam certainly not a irvoyant, nor could I have anticipated that you would discover this research methodology.

    “How could I have deliberately made Ms. Rogers refuse onboarding for Joseph and his team?

    “In the end, this is fate. Even Heaven is helping us outb. /b

    David was so binfuriated /bthat he nearly suffered a myocardial infarction. He forced himself to suppress his anger and barely managed not to lose hisposure by shouting.

    David took a deep breath and said, “Fine. My impatience led to this oversight. Since the research investment is still limited, the project ends here.

    “Director, I have decided to give up this research project. I am sorry for causing losses to the institute.”

    David was a perceptive individual. He knew how to bavoid /bgreater losses. Josie was a bit disappointed.

    She had assumed that, given David’s upromising pride, he would persevere band /bpush the research forward no matter the difficulties. However, she was wrong.

    It seems that this time she couldn’t ruin his reputation and bring him to utter disgrace. She would have to look for another opportunity.

    However, given his selfish disposition, the cancetion of this research project bwas /blikely not to end well.

    Josie was still lost in thought when she heard Audrey scream, “David, are you aware of what you are saying? Do byou /bunderstand the implications of canceling the research?

    “Have you calcted how much manpower and resources we have already invested in the preliminary stages?

    “What about the Monroe family and the National Hospital?

    “Are you trying to make our research institute lose face and be theughingstock of the entire medicalmunity?”

    “It’s not that serious. David nced back at Jeremy. “Isn’t there still Professor Wilcourt’s research? I am bconfident /bthey will achieve outstanding results.

    “Is that correct, Professor Wilcourt?”

    Josie thought. This bastard is setting traps again!”

    Jeremypletely ignored the previous remark and turned directly to director.

    He said, “I find the penalty eptable and am generally satisfied. Since the matter has been rified, I will no longer dy my valuable bresearch /btime.

    b“/bJoseph, Josie, let’s go back to the experiment!”

    “Yes, Professor!” Josie exchanged a smile with Joseph and followed Jeremy out obediently and sweetly.

    At the doorway, Jeremy turned back to look at Hadley.
