After all, it was only a matter of time before she died. Even if the medicine didn't work, they wouldn't lose anything. But what if the medicine really worked?
Every patient's address and contact information was clearly listed on the list. Su Wan immediately handed the list to the company's employees to contact them one by one.
Hunter and Kyla had an adorable daughter, Judy. She was only three years old this year. They were supposed to be a happy family, but unfortunately, their daughter was diagnosed with cancer a few months ago. Moreover, it was already in the final stage of cancer when the diagnosis was made.
Hunter and Kyla were just ordinary company employees. Their income wasn't high, and the various surgeries and treatments quickly depleted their savings. They even owed hundreds of thousands of dollars in debt.
Not only did Judy's condition not improve, but it also worsened. The doctor said that there was no need to continue the treatment.
In the end, they had no choice but to give up the treatment and bring Judy home. They would do their best to accompany Judy and let her live the last days of her life happily.
At noon, Kyla was carefully feeding Judy. Judy was very weak from the illness and couldn't eat by herself.
"Good Judy, have another bite."
Kyla put the spoon in front of Judy, but Judy refused to eat with a bitter face.
"Mom, my stomach is hurting again."
Kyla's eyes reddened. She knew that it was because of the cancer cells that had spread throughout her body.
Kyla tried her best not to cry, but she was very sad. She didn't know how long her little angel could stay with her.
A pair of big, warm hands pressed on her shoulders.
"You'll get better. You'll definitely get better!"
Kyla turned to look at her husband. She saw determination and determination in his eyes.
Kyla knew that her husband had never given up on their daughter. Even after the doctor told them that there was no cure, her husband continued to search for new ways to treat cancer on the Internet.
During the day, they would stay at home with their daughter. At night, they would work at the bar and warehouse to earn money for their daughter's treatment.
However, until now, they still hadn't found a new way to keep their daughter alive. Perhaps there would be in the future, but their little angel might not be able to wait!
Just as Kyla suppressed the pain in her heart and forced a smile on her face to continue coaxing her daughter to eat, the phone suddenly rang.
"Ring ring ring! Ring ring ring! … "
Hunter patted his wife's shoulder gently and turned to answer the phone.
"Hello, this is Hunter's house."
"Hello, Mr. Hunt. I'm a customer service officer from Divine Shield Biotechnology Company. You can call me Laura."
A gentle and pleasant female voice sounded from the other end of the phone.
Hunter didn't know what the man was doing but he still spoke politely.
"Hello, Miss Laura. I don't know why you're calling."
"Sorry to disturb you. We are a biopharmaceutical company. We have developed a new anti-cancer drug that can prevent the spread and proliferation of cancer cells. It is also effective for patients with advanced cancer. Now, this drug has entered the clinical trial stage. We learned about your daughter's situation, so we invited her to accept our free treatment."
After listening to Laura, Hunter couldn't help but frown. He had looked up almost all the new anti-cancer drugs that were being developed and tested on the Internet, but he had never heard of S.H.I.E.L.D.
Moreover, the effect of those new drugs was very limited. Although what the other party said about "being able to prevent the spread and proliferation of cancer cells and being effective for patients with advanced cancer" was something he dreamed of, he felt that it was very unrealistic. He couldn't help but ask.
"You mean that your company has developed a drug that can cure cancer, and can even cure advanced cancer?"
Hunter didn't blindly believe the other party because he was eager to cure his daughter. He felt that the other party was more like a swindler. Maybe they would ask him to pay a deposit or something.
"No, according to animal experiments, our drug can only prevent the spread and proliferation of cancer cells. Under the action of the body's immune system, the cancer cells that have spread to the body's blood and other tissues will be eliminated. However, the tumors that have already formed will not disappear. As long as the drug continues to be taken, these tumors will enter a dormant state and become similar to a benign tumor. It will not affect the health of the body."
Laura's explanation didn't make Hunter relax. He felt that the group of swindlers might know that it was too unrealistic to claim that they could completely cure cancer. No one would believe them, so they made up such a tempting story.
"Do I have to pay any fees?"
Hunter's words were full of doubts.
Laura naturally heard the other party's doubts, so she smiled and said.
"You can rest assured that you don't have to pay any fees. On the contrary, after the trial, we will pay you 100,000 USD for the trial. If the patient dies during the trial due to cancer, we will pay 500,000 USD as compensation. This will be written into the contract."
Hunter was unsure of what to do.
He had inquired about a lot of new drugs that were in the clinical trial stage. It was customary for major pharmaceutical companies to pay a certain amount to participate in the trial, but usually it wasn't too high. It was just a little more than the salary of an ordinary employee. 100,000 USD, even if it was a long-term trial for a few months, was very high.
And if there was a contract, he didn't have to worry about the other party being a swindler. After all, the law in the United States was very developed. When signing a contract, everyone was used to having a lawyer accompany them. It was almost impossible to cheat in the contract. Since the other party was able to find out about his daughter's situation, they should have some understanding of their current conditions.
But was there really a drug that could completely control cancer?
He hoped that it was true, but it was really hard to believe.
"To be honest, I can't completely believe you. I have never heard of your company's name."
Hunter said straightforwardly.
Laura's voice was still gentle and beautiful.
"I can understand. Our company has just been established, so it's normal that you haven't heard of it. But I think you must have heard of our other company."
"Oh?"
Hunter heard this and couldn't help but recall the name of the company that the other party had just mentioned. It seemed to be called Shield Biotech? This name seemed a bit familiar.
Just as Hunter was trying hard to connect the dots, he heard Laura on the other side of the phone say in a proud tone.
"Shendun Motor Company!"
