Chapter 97

He was from another state and had no connections in Velmors. He wanted to stay there purely based on his abilities, and his skills were on par with Trevor's. The internship company didn't accept him for two main reasons. First, his performance in campus competitions wasn't as good as Trevor's. Second, after Trevor completed his internship, Mia went home for a visit.

In her past life, Lana didn't understand Mia's family background and always thought that Trevor stayed because of his own abilities. Later, she found out that Mia's mother, Jimena Olsen, was the deputy dean of a high-level research institute, and she had always wanted Mia to take over her position and become the top figure in domestic cellular medicine.

However, Mia wasn't as exceptional as Pena had hoped. Fearing Jimena's disappointment, Mia resorted to any means necessary to climb the ranks, with Trevor serving as her insurance to secure a job after graduation.

It wasn't just Trevor. Later, Erluan, Kevin, and Russell also made it into the Parch Institute thanks to Mia. Even in Loma's previous life, it appeared that Wyatt had helped her get into the Institute. But in reality, it was all part of Mia's plan.

Although everyone seemed to have entered the top research team with great fanfare, each of them had paid a heavy price. In the end, only Luna lost her life.

“Luna, what’s wrong?” Nicole took Luna’s hand, looking at her with concern. “Are you nervous about the competition?”

Luna nodded. “A bit. You just mentioned your boyfriend, and it reminded me. Isn’t George about to start his internship soon!”

“Yes, he’s been working hard. He’ll probably start his internship next semester,” Nicole sighed. “Recently, he’s been looking into several hospitals, but after much consideration, he still prefers the research institute.”

“After all, his academics have always been good, and he’s been in the lab with his mentor for the past two years. But getting into a research institute isn’t that easy, especially the high-level research institutes in Velmora. Ordinary folks like us can’t get in.”

Jade shook her head. “It’s a pity my family doesn’t know anyone at the research institute; otherwise, I could ask around.”

Jade’s words made Luna realize that she might be able to ask Erin. She remembered that George’s professional skills were strong, and if given a chance, he might even surpass Trevor.

In their past life, Tarot was a carefree guy, but with the help of the research institute’s equipment and resources, he managed to gain a place in the medical field. There was no reason George couldn’t do the same.

Luna decided to give it a try.
