“Professor Wilson said he’ll come by tomorrow at three in the afternoon. He has some matters he wants to discuss with you,” Fiona replied.Old Mr. Cooper nodded slightly at her words. “Yes, that’s something that should be discussed.”“Then, Grandfather, if there’s nothing else, I’ll head back first. I need to get up early tomorrow morning,” Fiona said after finishing her report.“Go on, go on. Get some proper rest and make sure everything is arranged well tomorrow,” Old Mr. Cooper said gently.With that, Fiona took her leave.Heidi, together with the household staff, wheeled Old Mr. Cooper back to his room.Under normal circumstances, the old man would have already been asleep by this hour.At the same time, Joseph had returned home as well.Once he was back, Mason Alvarez checked Joseph’s wounds again and applied medicine that would aid healing.Alice, for her part, had specially prepared a nourishing soup to replenish his energy and calm his nerves. Naturally, all the ingredients we

“This medicine is excellent—specifically for treating women’s physiological issues.”“When it comes to dysmenorrhea, there’s virtually no drug on the market that can cure it at the root. If this medicine truly delivers effects comparable to a miracle drug—and even offers a complete cure—it would undoubtedly become a bestseller. An absolute blockbuster.”Old Mr. Cooper gazed at the documents before him, sighing with emotion.“I think so too,” Fiona agreed.“This was given to you by your brother-in-law?” Heidi asked, rolling her eyes.“Yes,” Fiona replied.“You didn’t take advantage of him again, did you?” Heidi couldn’t help but remark sarcastically.“As for profits, I never intended to shortchange him—if anything, I planned to give him more.”“Whether it’s the Cooper family or myself, we truly owe him a great deal.”Hearing this, Fiona’s delicate face showed a hint of awkwardness. Her younger sister was far too blunt—painfully honest, even. She gave her no face at all. If Fiona hadn’t

"You can’t put it that way. When my mentor and I were down on our luck back then, Old Mr. Cooper was willing to lend us a hand. That alone was no small kindness.""No matter how you look at it, the ties between the two of us and the Cooper family can’t be explained in just a few words.""The growth of the Cooper family benefits me as well—really, it benefits both sides.""But the road ahead is still long, and no one knows how things will ultimately unfold."Joseph spoke with a hint of emotion."I was too young back then. There were many things Grandpa would never tell me.""Perhaps, for various reasons, he couldn’t."Fiona said slowly."Remember to tell Old Mr. Cooper that I’ll come by tomorrow at three in the afternoon to talk with him. I won’t call him myself."Joseph said to Fiona."Don’t worry. I won’t forget."Fiona replied seriously.After that, the two continued discussing the new drugs for a while, going over various details.In the end, Fiona used a flash drive to copy the da

"There’s no need to worry about the efficacy of these drugs.""Take the medication for menstrual pain, for example. Heidi has already used it. Of course, she took the formula I prepared. After using it, she should no longer suffer from dysmenorrhea.""The formula and this new drug share the same active components. Turning the formula into a finished medicine simply means standardizing it into a herbal-based pharmaceutical.""The only real challenge lies in purifying the active compounds. Everything else shouldn’t be particularly difficult.""You’re my student—you should be able to tell as well."Joseph spoke with a faint smile."Of course I can. These days, I’ve read a great many books, and I’ve followed you in seeing quite a few patients. I feel I’ve already developed some basic medical judgment.""But… you said Heidi has used this formula?"Fiona tucked a strand of hair behind her ear, speaking with quiet confidence."Yes. Not too long ago, in fact. You can ask her about the results

"If my understanding is correct, the Cooper family’s core business lies in processing and manufacturing pharmaceutical raw materials. But raw material production has never been the most profitable segment.""What you earn is essentially what others leave behind. The returns may be decent, but they’re not enough to allow the Cooper family to continue expanding."Joseph stated plainly."That’s true, but there’s nothing we can do about it. We don’t have formulas or patents. Even if we had talent in biopharmaceuticals, it would still be useless.""Over the years, the Cooper family has relied heavily on cooperation with the Morgan family. Ever since they scaled back most of that collaboration, the group’s overall business size has shrunk quite a bit.""That said, things aren’t exactly terrible right now. Given our original scale, this is simply us returning to what we were in the first place."Fiona smiled faintly."You didn’t have formulas or patents before. But now, you do."Joseph repli

"What’s the use of complaining now? Things have already come to this.""Matters between young people should be left to the young to resolve. What business do old folks like us have meddling in it?""You worry far too much. At our age, do you really think we can decide how their future paths should unfold?"Old Mrs. Cooper gazed in the direction Fiona had left, her voice tinged with emotion."If I don’t worry, who will? I’m not dead yet. As long as I’m alive, I’ll worry until my last breath."Old Mr. Cooper replied stubbornly."Fine then. I, for one, don’t have the energy to worry anymore.""Fiona and Heidi’s aunt’s family said they’re coming over and plan to stay here for a while. I’ve already told the staff to make the arrangements.""They chose to come at this time—are they here to check on Fiona’s parents’ situation?"Old Mrs. Cooper said meaningfully."Heidi’s aunt… is that the one who used to do business in Nova City when the kids were little, the one who visited them often?"Old
