In the afternoon, Tiffany walked up to Riley and said, "Dr. Sinclair, I just arrived today and I'd like to invite everyone out for dinner tonight."
Riley stopped his work and looked at the sensible Tiffany, then glanced at the obviously antisocial Enzo. He smiled and said, "Dr. Olsen, I understand what you mean. But you've just arrived, how can we let you treat?"
With that, Riley stood up and announced on the spot, "We'll have a dinner party in the lab tonight to welcome our new colleague. Everyone must attend."
As Riley's words fell, the lab erupted in excitement.
Tiffany glanced at Alessia, satisfied, and returned to her seat, sending a short message to Dominic.
[Dom, we're having a welcome dinner for Enzo in the lab tonight. If you're free, come and join us.]
Soon, a reply came from the other end.
[Depends on the situation!]

Gordon was taken aback, surprised that Christian knew about Doctor Athena. However, he quickly remembered that when Christian arrived, he and Tiffany were discussing Doctor Athena, so he suppressed his surprise.The little one must have overheard their conversation.Gordon smiled wryly and didn't hide it. "You're right. Only Doctor Athena can ensure the recovery of your grandma."Christian bit her lip, glanced again at Alessia, and whispered, "Grandpa, I will help Grandma figure something out."Gordon hesitated for a moment, then smiled. What kind of solution could a child under five think of? Could he even know Doctor Athena?Obviously not, but the child's sincerity was touching.Gordon couldn't bear to refuse and, to amuse Christian, said, "Okay, Grandpa will thank you for Grandma, and I'll be waiting for your good news.""Yeah! Grandpa
The same two people, producing two different DNA test reports. What does Ava want to do again?Gordon recalled that rainy night years ago when he admitted Ava to the psychiatric hospital.Through the iron bars of the hospital, Ava, with a fierce expression, swore to him that she would never let him off.Ava had been discharged from the hospital for many years now. During these years, she seemed to have kept quiet, not causing any trouble again. Gordon didn't pay attention to her anymore because he detested her.With such a big disturbance this time, does she want to cause trouble again?Now Evelyn couldn't afford any stimulation due to illness. Regardless of whether Ava came for him or not, and regardless of whether Alessia and Ava were mother and daughter, as long as it had something to do with the Ramirez family, he couldn't let her get close to Evelyn again.
Tiffany choked. She understood Alessia's implication.Alessia pretended not to notice her, but she was clearly pointing out her actions. Tiffany knew her little tricks, there was no use trying to conceal them.This countryside girl was even more difficult to deal with than she had imagined. No wonder Sisca had suffered losses in her hands multiple times.Taking a deep breath in her heart, Tiffany realized that the situation hadn't reached the point of completely tearing their faces.If their faces were torn, it wouldn't be convenient for her to make any more moves in the future.Moreover, in the short term, she still had to work in the laboratory with Alessia. At least she could maintain a surface peace.With these thoughts in mind, Tiffany put on a natural smile and pretended, following Alessia's words, "Miss La Rosa, you didn't see me? Then I must have been
For several days in a row, he had done several unusual things. Even though the thread of his love was thick, he gradually understood his own feelings.He was just suppressed by various factors, so he dared not face it. And now, he still didn't want to face it.Dominic asked, "Is this related to you?"Enzo sighed, "Actually, it's not a big problem. I just wanted to tell you that I also want to pursue Sia."Dominic was stunned to hear Enzo's confession, then a trace of anger rose in his heart, but he quickly suppressed it.His deep eyes coldly stared at Enzo and calmly said, "Do you know she's already a mother?""Yeah, I know. She's divorced with two children, and I don't mind," Enzo said casually. "I will treat those two children as my own."Is he asking for death?Dominic's face twisted slightly, grinding his teeth, "
"Mr. Carter, you're playing dirty," Enzo was stunned, understanding why his father had called him at this moment."Dirty? As business partners, I feel obligated to help Mr. Roberts..." Here, Dominic deliberately paused, raised an eyebrow, and looked at Enzo before sarcastically saying, "to educate his unruly son."Enzo felt suppressed by Dominic's presence, but he didn't show any signs of backing down, staring back at him.Just as everyone noticed the tension between Enzo and Dominic, thinking they were about to fight in the next second, the two of them tactfully looked away.Dominic naturally placed the peeled crayfish into a bowl and handed it to Alessia."Wow, such a big bowl of crayfish meat. I wish my boyfriend would peel them for me too.""Mr. Carter seems to have feelings for Miss La Rosa...?"Those in the lab who didn't know about
The message was sent to M, but there was no response until the car entered Forest Hill. Just as Alessia settled down, M's call finally came.Glancing at Riley, who had already gone upstairs, Alessia walked to the window to take the call."Boss, you finally remembered me," M's voice, as lively as ever, greeted her.Alessia couldn't help but smile slightly, but her tone remained cool. "Can we stick to business?""Sure thing, boss. You're always so business-minded, but I still like you," M teased, then continued, "Boss, IronRose and NeoNinja were the youngest hackers to apply to the Hacker Association. They both got invitations, but guess what happened next?"M deliberately left her hanging, and Alessia narrowed her eyes before replying, "They both backed out.""Woah, boss, you already knew the answer and still asked me? Are you pulling my leg?" M complained on
"I disagree with what you said. You know my skills. How can you call it seeking death?" Alessia met Dominic's eyes again."Alright, Mr. Carter, you don't have to worry about this matter. Just focus on protecting the three kids," she said, pushing past Dominic and walking to the bed.Alessia sat on the bed and issued another dismissal, "Mr. Carter, I'm going to sleep."Seeing Alessia's fair feet on the ground and then on the bed, Dominic's eyes darkened momentarily. Then he averted his gaze and left with an angry remark before storming out, "If you want to die, do it far away."Alessia raised an eyebrow, watching as the door was closed again, then she lay down on the bed.She took out her phone and scrolled through her friends' updates. She saw a post from Enzo.‘Tonight is very close,’ with a picture of his hat.Very close, refer
The domineering tone, the cold expression, even Alessia could misunderstand Dominic for acting, her heart skipped a beat without warning.However, this sudden flutter was quickly suppressed by her because she knew better than anyone that it was just an act.Alessia had her pride; she absolutely wouldn't allow herself to fall in love with someone who didn't love her.Alessia bit her lip, staring at her toes.Facing Dominic's impoliteness, Enzo just casually hooked his lips and didn't linger with Dominic, heading straight into the car.Watching the car drive away, Alessia silently freed her hand from Dominic's grasp.Dominic looked at his empty palm, feeling as if a part of his heart had emptied along with it.He watched Alessia walk back into the house, inadvertently glancing at his palm again, where the warmth of Alessia still lingered.
