Miranda got straight to the point. "Joli, did you apply to use the C122 lab room?""C122?" Joli was momentarily taken aback. He couldn't fully process the question. Miranda continued, "I've checked the details of your current research project, and it doesn't require the use of the CPRT measurement
Joli asked, "Did you use my name to apply for the lab access at the dean's office?"Sophie replied, "Ah! Yes."He asked again, "Then, who is using that lab? I need to contact that person.""No one is using it.""Nobody?" Although he expected that answer, Joli still felt uneasy about it.Sophie answe
Joli lowered his eyes to mask his emotion, but his fists clenched tighter beneath his sleeves. After what felt like ages, he finally relaxed his grip as if he had run out of energy and decided to give in. "Thank you, Dr. Xander. I appreciate everything you've done for me over the years," he said."
After 30 seconds, Madison's phone chimed with a text message. She glanced at the screen and saw a payment notification. On the other end, her father, Mason Hill, said, "Sweetie, did you receive it?""Yes, I did."It wasn't one million but 1.5 million dollars. She was delighted that her father sent
Madison asked, "What should I do?""You're in charge of the money," Miranda replied.That same day, Miranda and Sebastian each transferred 420,000 dollars into Madison's bank account.Madison was thrilled to have so much money. She smiled as she nibbled on a cookie and stroked her debit card. Sure,
Miranda couldn't believe Zach told her to contact Sam.Zach replied, "Well, Sam is the owner."She was left speechless. After everything, it had come back to someone she knew.Miranda sighed as she ended the call and reluctantly dialed Sam's number. She wasn't joking that day when she told him, "Yo
"Yes. You have a bad temper and a bad memory. What's wrong with that?" Zach said.Winter flung a pillow at him. "Just shut up!"He tilted his head and skillfully dodged it, which showed that he was well-practiced in this sort of exchange.She reached for another pillow, but he said, "Don't bother. I
"Hey, what are you staring at? Hand me the water," Winter said.Zach felt all the pleasantness shattered the moment she spoke. His lips twitched as he replied, "Can I make a suggestion?""Go ahead." She took a sip of ice water and instantly felt refreshed."Can you tone it down when you talk to me?
After returning from the Garrison estate, Miranda finally learned that Paul had actually abandoned his work at the lab midway just to have dinner with her family."Dr. Jefferson, please come to the lab tomorrow to continue authorizing the access permissions." Esme's flat and emotionless voice came t
Paul had arrived quickly. During dinner, he had beaten Sam to it when he tried to sit next to Miranda. Sam had tried to take the seat on the opposite side, but Fiona had cut in and taken that seat before he could. …"So were you deliberately stalling him when you said the remote was broken before t
Aren couldn't understand it. "Why are you in such a rush? Sam has been single for quite some time, and you've never reacted this strongly before."Of all things, she wanted to set up a blind date."You… you're not sleepwalking, right?" Aren asked cautiously. Fiona turned to glare at him immediately
"Huh? Why didn't I hear Sam start his car? Has he left? Let me take a look…" Aren muttered as he walked to the floor-to-ceiling window and peered out. "I knew it! His car is still there. He didn't leave at all. Could his car be stuck in the snow? That doesn't make sense… It hasn't been snowing long
The night was dark and silent as the heavy snow fell. Inside the estate, Fiona glanced out the window. "Oh, it looks like it's snowing outside," she said. Sam remained indifferent as it snowed every year in Elgerson. To him.. Or rather, snow was nothing special to anyone who grew up in Elgerson.
Aren nodded. "That works too. Sam, you don't need to send them off then. Head home and rest early."Sam remained silent. Before long, a maid came in and reported, "Both boxes have been loaded into Dr. Jefferson's car."Paul bid farewell to the elderly couple. "Mr. and Mrs. Garrison Senior, we'll he
Miranda was completely unaware of what was happening at the chessboard. At that moment, she was sitting on the couch and watching a dating reality show with Fiona. Yes, a dating show. In Fiona's own words, she said, "I just love watching young people fall in love. If I happen to find a couple I li
Since Paul had arrived, Fiona invited everyone to head to the dining room. Sam caught up to him and said dryly, "Dr. Jefferson, you seem quite free today."Paul replied, "It's the end of the year, so both the college and the labs are starting their holiday break. Perhaps the only ones still busy at
Sam brought his laptop to the living room and sat cross-legged in front of the coffee table. The thick wool carpet and the warmth of the heater kept the winter chill at bay. He began working in an orderly manner. From the business department to branding, then over to finance and human resources… E
