Sebastian got up to pay the bill when they were almost done eating.As they were about to leave, they ran into Hank, Yasmine, Willow, and Theodore, who were entering the restaurant.Only TIna was absent. It wasn't surprising that she wasn't there. With her status, Tina never visited restaurants of s
Hank panicked and said, "Hey, w-what are you doing? Do you want me to sue you for invasion of privacy?"Madison replied, "This is a public place and it's legal to make a recording. Feel free to sue me, but I'm just a concerned citizen of Jandersville." "You—you guys…" Hank was so angry that he rese
The car stopped at the entrance of an alley, and Miranda got out. Sebastian and Madison had already gotten out ahead of her. Miranda walked in the direction of her apartment. Illuminated by the gentle moonlight, a few sparse stars dotted the night sky. The wind wasn't cooling as it carried the ling
Miranda regretted it the moment the words left her mouth. However, once spoken, she couldn't retract her words, just like water spilled on the ground. Sam replied, "You, of course."He was interested in her. Miranda looked up at the ceiling in exasperation.Sam's lips twitched. "Stop pretending. I
"Huh?" Matthew took some time to wrap his head around what Sam said. "Who delivered it? And when? Did you even mention this to me?"Sam answered, "I happened to be on campus today. In the afternoon, I heard you saying that the USB drive was for Miranda, so I took it to her for you.""Oh, I see… Why
Both of them went into the console room. Miranda didn't beat around the bush and got straight to the point. "Dr. Young, I think there's an issue with your research approach."She didn't wait for Christine to respond and handed her a document before continuing, "Over the weekend, the three of us rev
It was hard to turn back now that they were in too deep. "But fortunately, someone has finally identified the problem," Christine sighed. Miranda couldn't believe that everyone else remained oblivious to the problem in their research. However, they had no choice but to let things continue and make
Miranda suggested, "We'll have to apply for a lab, just the three of us."Madison and Sebastian were shocked. How could Miranda be so bold? "Wouldn't Dr. Young mind?" Miranda laughed. "You're thinking too little of the old lady. The suggestion came from her in the first place."They immediately to
In the end, Miranda, Madison and Sebastian each ate a cup of instant noodles to fill their stomachs.Madison sighed. "First time cup noodles have ever tasted this good."Sebastian smirked. "Only because the cafeteria food set the bar so low."Miranda was speechless.It was still early, and their sch
This training camp before the academic exchange was basically a last-minute cram session. No one expected to gain any real expertise here—knowledge had to be built up over time, not crammed overnight. Trying to cram it all in at the last minute wouldn't help much.The real focus wasn't on learning a
That night, only Madison, Sebastian, and the stars bore witness to what happened.…Soon, Independence Day arrived. While the rest of the students celebrated the holiday, Madison, Sebastian, and Miranda kicked off a two-week intensive training camp arranged by the college.The training was held at a
Beckett confirmed with Hendrix again. "Are we really giving it to them? Three spots for the combined Master's and Doctorate program?"Hendrix clenched his jaw. "Yes. As long as they win the championship, three spots are nothing…""What? Even 300?" Beckett gawked. Had Hendrix lost his mind?Hendrix
Just as Miranda turned to leave, Beckett quickly stopped her. "Hey, wait! Ms. Sutton, don't be so quick to decide. Now that you're here…" His tone softened. "Let's talk this through. We can work something out, right?"She sneered. "Mr. Haddock, you didn't sound too open to compromise a minute ago.
Miranda continued, "We've accomplished something that no one else has. Doesn't that warrant special treatment and a new precedent?"Her words were sharp, cutting straight to the bone. Hendrix and Beckett were left speechless.She had a point. She wasn't asking for direct admission just for particip
Hendrix almost laughed out of sheer frustration. He shot a furious gaze at Beckett that screamed, "Did you hear that? She actually has the nerve to negotiate with us!"Beckett quickly signaled for him to stay calm and not get too worked up. Losing his temper wouldn't solve anything. Miranda had mad
Hendrix retorted, "What do you mean by that? This is about bringing glory to our college and country!"Beckett's lips twitched. "Just don't use that as emotional blackmail later. Students these days don't buy into that. They're independent, self-aware, and know how to set boundaries. So, stroke her
Sebastian thought it over for a moment. "This isn't just for nothing, right? What do we get if we win?" Madison shot up from her seat and pointed at him. "You… you… Don't tell me you actually want to participate?"Sebastian took her hand with a smile. "Don't get so worked up. Be good and sit down.
