Chapter 800
"We'll move forward together toward the future." Steven held Stephanie's, Ashton's, and Xan's hands tightly.
They nodded in determination, united.
They would move forward together no matter what the future brought.
Stephanie and Steven transferred both Ashton and Xan into a regular public high school.
Ashton and Xan adapted quickly. Both of them obtained straight A's in their first mock exam, tying for first place in the entire city and earning a spot on their school's honor roll.
This time, Stephanie and Steven were much more at ease compared to before when they attended the parent- teacher conference.
Their entire family worked hard to play the role of ordinary people, doing their best to blend into society.
Since they couldn't change the world, they learned to blend in and contribute to society using their own means.
The government managed to suppress the entire situation after the exposure of Genome Society had caused panic among the society. They then set up their own secret research institution.
The government shifted their focus to positive research on genetics, inviting Steven and Stephanie to lead the institute.
They were responsible for projects related to DNA and cancer, which saved countless families in the process. That was something they should be doing and was also what they wanted to do.
Zion once told them that everyone was born with a purpose, and their existence itself was justified.
Genome editing should be strictly prohibited, and clones shouldn't be used to violate human ethics. However, while science could destroy the world, it could also change it for the better.
Humanity and the Earth were just specks in the vast universe, with so many unknowns ahead. It was detrimental to long-term development if they were to focus only on immediate gains. Only through ongoing effort and progress could they truly move forward.
Stephanie and Steven finally became part of the ordinary under the government's protection. They could finally live a peaceful and happy life.
Ashton and Xan both gained early admission to a public polytechnic university at the age of 13. They strived to drive progress for the country and society using their skills and knowledge.
"We're having a party today to celebrate the kids' admission into the advanced class!"
Zion and the others had arrived. Eason even brought Joel along.
Joel smugly extended his hand to Ashton and Xan. "Congratulations on becoming my juniors, guys!"
Stephanie couldn't help but laugh in amusement. Simeon was once scouted into the advanced class in his teens, and he was only in his 20s now.
He had just gotten accepted into graduate school, and now, he was already fellow students with Ashton and Xan in the same college.
They might even be colleagues in the future.
Eason chuckled and said, "You brats should get along well. As their senior, you should take good care of Ashton and Xan, Joel."
Joel replied angrily, "Whose side are you on? How dare you let Steven and Stephanie take advantage of me!" Their relationship was getting all mixed up.
"Come try my cooking, guys! I made clam chowder, garden salad, and barbecued ribs." Steven excitedly served his food to the others.
Joel, Ashton, and the others immediately stopped smiling. They turned to look at Stephanie and said, "Let's just head out to eat instead."All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.
Steven's food looked beyond unappetizing.
