Chapter 163 Chapter 163 "The research and development of humans' understanding of nature and their own body structure is still in its very early stages," the professor said.

He went on, "We used to think memories were stored in the brain, but more and more cases are showing that organ transplants can also carry memories. Here are a few examples." The lecture hall at Westwood University was packed, with over 500 seats filled, and many students had to stand. The front rows were filled with wealthy businesspeople from all over.

When Calvin's incident went public, it immediately caused a huge stir, and even experts from abroad cover, but they were stopped at the gates of the school.

58 Jolie and Quinlyn were sitting in the center of the front row. The pressure from all the powerful people around them was so intense that they both felt on edge.

"Quinlyn, you're amazing. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have even gotten in here,” Jolie whispered to Quinlyn, trying to ease the tension.

Jolie had originally saved her seat, but the school had received so many VIPs at the last minute that they had to clear sstudents out. Unfortunately, Jolie was one of them.

Just when she was feeling frustrated and asking for help from her group, she saw the professor walking alongside Joseph, with Quinlyn right behind them. That was how she ended up getting in.

"I can't believe the people you know are this impressive. Even world-famous professors are getting sponsored by the Wilson family," Jolie said, amazed.

Quinlyn smiled, feeling proud. "Yeah, Joseph is really something." "There are a lot of businesspeople from Hong Kong here, and even sfrom Letale Island. They're probably really interested in this project," Jolie continued.

"That's a good thing, right? The more people who invest, the smoother the research will go," Quinlyn said. She had overheard the professor outside, and it sounded like he was about to kneel to Joseph just to get funding.

But Jolie shook her head and explained, "It's not that simple. For something like this, something so crucial for future technology, it has to be sponsored by investors with clean and clear backgrounds. Otherwise, it could easily be used for criminal purposes.

"For example, if memories could be transplanted and fully replicated, wealthy people would definitely want to keep their memories and transfer them into younger, healthier bodies. That could lead to tragedies like Gregory's, or even worse." Quinlyn nodded, understanding her point. Right then, the big screen switched to a case about Calvin. Even though the photo was blurred, his small size and age immediately shocked the crowd.

The professor said, "The heart transplant we mentioned earlier only changed the recipient's tastes, habits, and personality, with occasional fleeting memories popping up in their dreams.

"But the next recipient took things further, absorbing the donor's emotions, knowledge, and even memories. It's believed that in familiar surroundings, they could start recalling even more.

"This completely challenges the idea that memories are stored in the brain-or even in our genes. Memories could exist in organs, blood, or even other parts of the body. This is the direction we'll be researching next." The room erupted in applause. It was a groundbreaking moment, changing the world's understanding and introducing new biological theories. The professor finished his lecture.

1/3 Chapter 163 38750 After the lecture, the students hadn't even had a chance to ask questions when the rich businesmen rushed op and surrounded the professor. They were all eager to make their offers to him.

"We should head out, Joseph said, not interested in getting caught up in the crowd. He stood up and started walking toward the door.

Curious, Quinlyn asked, "Joseph, aren't you worried the project will be taken by someone else? Those businessmen looked like they were really interested. This research seemed to have a lot of potential and could make a ton of money.

Joseph just smiled mysteriously, glancing at her. "Don't worry. He won't dare," he said, referring to the professor Quinlyn froze for a second, then quickly understood. Just like Jolie had mentioned, the more important the project, the more careful they had to be when choosing investors. Otherwise, bad people could easily take advantage of it.

"You must be a good person. The professor really trusts you," she said, looking up at Joseph with admiration. Joseph smiled, clearly pleased. His eyes, deep and hard to read, narrowed slightly as he reached out and ruffled her hair. He said, “I'm glad you think so, but there's one thing you got wrong. He doesn't trust me. He trusts you. If it weren't for you. I wouldn't have met so many important people, and I wouldn't have this kind of reputation." Connections were the most valuable thing. It was true in every field.

Quinlyn didn't know much about business, so she only sort of understood. "Oh, I get it. Well, Joseph, you should try to be a good person." After all, he was investing in such an important project.

Joseph laughed and stopped, leaning down to tease her. "Try to be a good person? Isn't that a given?" "No need to try." Quinlyn shook her head seriously. "If someone tries to hurt you, don't be a good person. Your safety is the most important thing." Joseph was surprised, not expecting Quinlyn to say something like that. Compared to the confused, uncertain look she had when they were on the rooftop, Quinlyn now seemed clear-headed and confident.

It was like she had her own set of principles and was making a firm decision. She wasn't an absolute good person, nor an absolute bad person.

He smiled softly, and his heart felt warm. "Alright, I promise you." Just then, Jolie crunning up from behind, holding her notes and panting. "Quinlyn, wait! Calvin's going to be at the lab soon, and he wants to have dinner with us. Want to join?* They hadn't seen Calvin since Broadpeace Bridge, so Quinlyn was curious about how he was doing. She nodd go.

reeing to As they reached the downstairs area, they saw Calvin and Elsa surrounded by two businessmen from a distance. "Really, we could find a body about the sage as yours. Then, with a heart transplant, you two could get married with no problem," said Mariano Rhodes.

"Yeah. Our lab has way better equipment and technology than here.

ve Your girlfriend looks like she's getting olden tool We could even help you two have a baby earlier, so you can continue your family's legacy," said Lionel Emerson. 1 Chapter 163 Calvin was surrounded on both sides. Listening to their nonsense. Anyone would be furious. "Get lost. I'm not working with any of you!

The two businessmen lost patience after a while, stood up straight, and stopped smiling Mariano looked n down at Calvin and said, "We're just trying to let you know. Whether you agree or not doesn't matter. Your money-hungry parents are probably already signing the contract" "You Calvin was stunned by the words.

Elsa wanted to argue, but Calvin held her tightly. He was already in the spotlight, and he couldn't drag his beloved woman into it.

He gritted his teeth and pulled out his phone, dialing his parents. "Hey, Mom, Dad, it's me. Did you sign the contract?

"Huh? How did you know? We're just about to tell you the good news. The pay is really high. You' make more than 3 million in just one year, Plus, you'll get to travel more. Don't hang around with shady people, especially Elsa-Laura said. Calvin couldn't take it anymore. He hung up in disappointment, his face filled with regret as he looked at Elsa. He felt like it was all his fault for being too soft. Comment mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliIofifl0&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1
