“Splendid! Remarkable medical skills! I expect nothing less from Dr. Shadow!”
“Dr. Shadow, you’re the pride of Jadonia! The legend of alternative medicine!”
“You’re the greatest of all, Dr. Shadow!”
“The special miraculous drug by Dr. Shadow might win the Nobbell prize, won’t it?”
Camille broke into a smile at the shower of compliments. “Thank you for the acknowledgment and support. I’ll continue to work hard in the future.”
The host reminded everyone to take their seats as the banquet would commence soon.
Camille glanced at the entrance, and there was no sign of Bernard. She softly asked Aurora, “Aurora, is Mr. Killian…”
Aurora patted her hand, assuring her in a low voice, “He’ll come today. Don’t you worry.”
Camille sighed in relief before turning around to go onstage, followed by a line of ceremonial ladies who were holding a banner.
She held the microphone. “Thank you for coming. I’d like to express my gratitude to the mayor, the chiefs, and the deans for the acknowledgment. I’d also like to take this opportunity to make two announcements.
“Firstly, I am proud to announce that the special medication I’ve been painstakingly researching to treat various complex diseases has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration. I shall name it “Divine Medicine,” and it’s officially available starting today!”
As soon as she dropped the great news, the audience surged in thunderous applause, and the media’s cameras flashed incessantly.
At that moment, a foreign doctor, who seemed to be in his 50s, walked up the stage. A ceremonial lady behind him was holding a golden angel trophy. Camille gasped, surprised to see the incoming person. “Dr. Quinnell!”
Graden Quinnell, the chairman of the International Medical Informatics Conference, had won numerous prestigious medical awards like the Nobbell Prize. Not only was he a prominent figure in the medical field all over the world, but he was also her idol!
“Shadow, I’ve finally found you. The evaluation results of the special medication for difficult diseases you sent to the foundation are out. Congratulations, you’ve won the Elasker Medical Award of the year,” he spoke in perfect Terranish.
The applause grew louder at that announcement.
The Elasker Medical Award was often seen as a forerunner of the Nobbell Prize in the medical world because the winner of the said prize would normally become a recipient of the Nobbell Prize in the following year!
Camille found it weird at first as she didn’t send the special medication to the foundation for evaluation. However, her emotions gave way to astonishment the moment she heard the Elasker Medical Award.
She won the Elasker Medical Award! That was the second most prestigious award in the medical world just behind the Nobbell Prize!
No one in her family history had ever received such high honor before!
She had created a miracle!
Camille gazed at the applauding crowd, a surge of emotions and pride overwhelming her. She had moved on to a whole new level of prime in her life! Not only her, but the entire Chime family, the mayor, the deans, and the media were swept away by the excitement.
Every year, the Elasker Medical Award would be given out to not more than three winners.
Among those outstanding medical professionals over the globe, only the top achievers would have the chance to receive such an honor.
On top of that, the honor wouldn’t
belong only to the recipient but also
to their family, community, country, and even the entire medical profession!
Driven by excitement, the audience got all teary.
Camille was truly the pride of Jadonia!
“Graden, why do you always get the wrong person again and again?”
Suddenly, a cold female voice spoiled the exhilarating moment.
Graden, who was about to bestow the trophy to Camille, halted at that.
The audience sunk into silence, looking around to find out who the woman was.
Then, a woman at a corner near the food area rose from her seat.
She strode to the stage gracefully in her snug dress.
