The two identities of scientist and businesswoman are actually contradictory. The former is engrossed in research, not good at talking, and even worse at controlling emotions, while the latter is smooth and worldly, not to say solely profit-driven, but definitely not too pure.
Currently, Veronica Cale's identity as a businesswoman seems very successful. I just don't know how her identity as a scientist will be. I hope she doesn't disappoint me.
"Sit down, tell me what wish You want to make?"
Veronica Cale sat down, glanced at Barbara, composed herself, and told Samuel her wish.
"I want a daughter!"
???
Your wish is to want a daughter?
What, what kind of trick is this?!
Samuel had thought that her wish might be to possess great power like Barbara, or perhaps eternal life. After all, she is very rich, and rich people hope to live forever, which is very reasonable.
But wishing for a daughter—this is a bit unreasonable, isn't it?
"Veronica, You—You can't give birth?
My meaning is You can't get pregnant?" Samuel hadn't even spoken yet when Barbara was shocked by her good friend's gossip.
Veronica Cale couldn't help but roll her eyes at her and explained irritably: "There's nothing wrong with my body."
"Then why are You still making this kind of wish?
Didn't I tell You?
Everyone only gets one chance to make a wish. If You want a daughter, just find a boyfriend, have a few more children, and You'll definitely have a daughter." Barbara offered advice.
Veronica Cale shook her head: "Why must I find a man just because I want a daughter?
That's not fair, and I don't think much of most men!"
"Do You think I'm successful?"
"Of course!"
Barbara nodded and said: "You're very beautiful, and a smart scientist, and You're also very rich. Many people have heard of Cale Pharmaceuticals."
"You've done charity and helped many people, so, of course, You are successful!"
Veronica Cale couldn't help but let out a cold laugh: "But all of this was earned by me starting from scratch. Do You know Bruce Wayne of Gotham Wayne Group?
Barbara nodded: "I've heard of him."
"Because his parents were accidentally shot and killed, Bruce Wayne inherited a large fortune and lived a successful life that everyone envied. And what about me?"
"My mother was a dancer, yes, that kind of dancer, and my Father was a scumbag, an asshole, who ran away after my mother got pregnant with me."
"With wisdom and courage, I climbed into high society step by step and achieved so-called success!"
"Then—sharing the word 'success' with most people who can only obtain wealth by relying on their parents or others."
"This kind of success makes me feel ridiculous."
"Uh—" Barbara frowned and asked hesitantly: "But what does this have to do with You wishing for a daughter?"
Veronica Cale took a deep breath and explained with some melancholy: "Because all of this was earned through my hard work, I don't want to benefit any man; I want a daughter to inherit everything I have."
"So I won't have a daughter with anyone else, nor will I adopt someone else's daughter. I want a daughter who belongs to me."
Barbara blinked, suddenly wondering if her good friend had some mental issues?
Why didn't I think she was so—pretentious before?
Her meaning is that she doesn't want to benefit other men, doesn't want to get involved with any man, but still wants a daughter who belongs to her?
This—how can she have a daughter like this?
Mold one out of clay?
Veronica Cale didn't think there was anything wrong with her. Precisely because this matter is difficult to achieve, that's why she needs to make a wish!
"Can this wish be granted?" She looked at Samuel, who had remained calm and composed since she stated her wish.
Samuel nodded calmly. Isn't it just wanting a daughter without finding a man? It's not a big deal!
What?
You're saying a clever housewife can't cook without rice?
Under normal circumstances, that would definitely be the case. After all, one person cannot have a child.
But don't forget, why would Samuel meet her?
Is it because she can box?
Of course not!
It's because she's a scientist, and cultivating Kryptonians requires someone to oversee it!
Doesn't she want a daughter?
Simple, just cultivate a Kryptonian daughter using her genes.
Just like the second-generation Superboy, Conner Kent, he was cloned from the genes of Clark Kent and Lex Luthor.
Cloning and cultivation can be said to be the same yet different, but regardless of whether they are the same or not, using the codex of life and the life cultivation chamber, plus Veronica Cale's genes, will definitely allow her to have a daughter of her own bloodline under such demanding conditions!
"Really, really possible?" Veronica Cale was a bit hesitant. Is this person's wishing ability this strong?
Can even such unscientific wishes be fulfilled?
"No, this is very scientific!"
Samuel looked at her and shook his head. Veronica Cale was stunned for a moment and subconsciously asked in return: "You, You know what I'm thinking?"
Samuel smiled without speaking. He needed to know if Veronica Cale had the ability to oversee the cultivation of Kryptonians, so he used his Mind Manipulation Ability to take a look...
This Veronica Cale does indeed have some skill in scientific research. Her own research findings are in human biology; otherwise, it would be impossible for her to get rich and become a female tycoon by opening a pharmaceutical factory.
Given her relevant expertise, although she might need some time to catch up and learn Kryptonian technology due to the limitations of the era, overall, entrusting her with the task of cultivating Kryptonians should be fine.
No, she might not even need to catch up and study!
She can entirely make a wish to quickly grasp the technology for cultivating Kryptonians. This way, she can get started immediately, and he can also take something from her.
For example, like Barbara, take away her 'betrayal'.
"Let's eat. After we finish, I'll take You to a place where You can make your wish come true."
"A place where I can make my wish come true?" Veronica Cale was stunned for a moment and looked at Barbara: "This, this is different from what You said. Didn't You say that You could make a wish just by touching him?
You didn't say anything about going somewhere."
Barbara shrugged: "The one making the wish is You; You decide."
"I—Can I know where we're going?" Veronica Cale looked at Samuel again, trying to get more information.
Samuel glanced at her but didn't say anything, slowly and deliberately eating his food.
Veronica Cale hesitated to speak but finally didn't press the matter.
She hadn't personally seen Samuel's wishing ability, but Barbara's change was not fake, and the portal they came through just now was also not fake.
If she still wanted her wish to come true, she could only choose to believe!
Half an hour later, the lunch that felt like chewing wax to Veronica Cale was finally finished.
Barbara ate very satisfactorily, and so did Samuel.
Wiping his mouth with a napkin, he reminded Veronica Cale: "You'd better go change into something warmer. The place we're going will be very cold."
"Where are we going?" Barbara asked curiously.
Veronica Cale quickly listened attentively.
"North Pole!"
Samuel said with a light smile.
