Chapter: 1297
Josiah had come to request that the director continue studying the hard-earned research report and develop it for the benefit of the country.
The director agreed with Josiah on this matter, while also blaming himself for failing to notice the vice director's mistakes, which led to significant trouble.
After their discussion, the director personally saw Josiah off. They didn't anticipate encountering Camila in the hallway. Aware of her physical condition, Josiah quickly approached her with concern.
“Why are you out? You should be resting at home."
Camila sighed helplessly.
“I have something to attend to."
“What's the matter? Do you need my help?" Josiah asked.
“I'm afraid I do," Camila replied with a bitter smile.
“Just tell me. I'll do whatever I can."
Josiah felt indebted to Camila and genuinely meant his offer.
"I have a dog that might be carrying an unknown virus. I need the assistance of the research institute's equipment and personnel urgently."
Josiah had never seen Camila so anxious. He assured her, "It's not a problem.”
He turned to the director and said, "She's the one who retrieved the research data from the Madeline Research Center. She was caught because we accidentally leaked the data. Her husband, Isaac Johnston, has a vast network of connections and resources. Otherwise, she might not have made it back here."
"What?" The director was surprised and impressed by her actions. He extended his hand and said, "It's you. We deeply apologize for the data leak and the trouble you faced."
The director held Camila's hand and continued, "You and your husband are truly remarkable. If it weren't for him, the seminar wouldn't have been held in our country."
Simultaneously, the director expressed his commitment.
"From now on, your matter is our research institute's matter. If you need anything, just let me know."
As Camila looked at the director, she felt a glimmer of hope that the research institute wasn't as corrupt as she had feared.
She replied softly, "Thank you."
"No, no. We owe you," the director insisted.
