Chapter 1143 Busted

The Dragon's Spine? Nicole's eyes widened slightly. She never imagined that Gina would use the Dragon's Spine as leverage to establish a connection with the science academy.

As she recalled the moment when she asked Gina for the Dragon's Spine and received a fake one instead, everything became clear to her—Gina had stolen the Dragon's Spine in the medical base.

No wonder she gave me a fake Dragon's Spine at the beginning. It turns out she had already given the real one to the science academy! Nicole suppressed her anger and kept her composure.

What she did not expect was that Gina would engage in such actions after taking over the medical base. She's tarnishing our master's legacy!

Noticing the anger on her face, Natasha couldn't help but remark, "While the actions of the medical base are unacceptable, it doesn't directly affect us. There's no need to be so furious."

Nicole composed her expression, mustering a faint smile as she nodded. "It has been a while since I was last in Durobrivae. I didn't anticipate the medical base turning out like this."

Natasha observed her reaction and assumed she was a recent graduate who had just entered society. So, she chuckled and said, "Once you've been in Durobrivae for some time, you'll come to understand. We've grown accustomed to these situations."

Nicole pursed her lips, choosing to remain silent.

As she had an exam in the afternoon, she decided to confront Gina at the medical base after the exam.

During their lunch break at the restaurant, she learned a lot about the situation from Natasha. She realized many seemingly concealed facts were, in fact, widely known by everyone. It was a matter that had been known for a long time but not openly discussed.

"Ms. Feuer is likely in her office at this hour. Allow me to guide you there." Roxanna hastily volunteered to lead the way.

Nicole glanced at her and waved her hand, saying, "No need. I'll go by myself." With that, she left without looking back.

As she departed, Roxanna's fawning expression turned into a gloomy one as she stared at Nicole's departing figure. She then snorted, "What audacity she has to think so highly of herself?"

Having spent years with Gina, Roxanna had long become well-versed in the ways of this medical base and naturally did not hold Nicole in high regard.

After Nicole had left, Roxanna took out her phone and dialed Gina's number. "Ms. Feuer, Nicole is on her way to see you."

Gina responded, "Got it."

Feeling uneasy, Roxanna paused for a moment before adding, "By the way, Nicole happened to see someone giving me a gift when she arrived."

At that, Gina's irritation surged, and she scolded, "How could you be so careless?! You'll be in trouble if

she finds out about it!"

Roxanna quickly apologized, "Ms. Feuer, I'm sorry! I didn't expect that she would see it."

Letting out a sigh, Gina contemplated for a moment before saying, "Since she has already seen it, there's nothing we can do. Just be cautious while she's at the medical base from now on!"
