As the library. Miranda had been working on a practice papers in a row She got stuck dan the last question for both papers She’d been trying to solve it for a long time, but she

couldn’t find the answ

*

Finally, she resembered seeing a similar problem in a book and got up to look for the

material in the reference section of the library

Miranda found the book after a few minutes Just as she decided to get up and return to

her seat, another book nearby caught her attention.

The title of the book was “The Fusion and Recombination of Genome Sequences“. She recalled what Paul had said and pulled the book out instinctively.

After skimming through a few pages, Mir Ja was surprised to find that the author’s opinion was quite similar to her own ideas.

She continued flipping through the pages. The more she read, the more delighted she became. Soon, she was completely absorbed until her phone vibrated in her pocket.

A WhatsApp message notification from Winter appeared on her phone screen. “Guess

where I am?”

Miranda thought Winter was trying to play a game with her. As she was about to reply to Winter, something occurred to her. She replied, “Are you at the college?”

“Bingo!”

Miranda went downstairs and saw a figure standing under a tree outside the library. Why did you come over all of a sudden?”

“I was nearby and thought I’d bring you something delicious to eat.” Winter gestured at the bag in her hand. A fragrant aroma wafted out. “I should get going now that I’ve delivered it.”Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

Miranda asked, “Aren’t you going to eat it with me?”

Winter waved her hand. “I brought it over especially for you. I’m too busy, so I won’t be eating.”

She sighed and continued, “I recently took on a new project. I’ve been busy for three days, and I’ve only slept eight hours in total. What’s worse, my dad summoned me to come over right when I just woke up. It’s just unfair!”

Winter worked as a designer, and she only took on a few big projects each year. However, each project was quite complicated. Once she got busy, she’d hardly have any

time to rest..

This time, she’d been forced to step in at the fast minute Otherwise, they wouldn’t have

called an amateur like her to help.

“Speaking of which, the issue this time seems to have something to do with the Johnson family,” Winter said, her eyes gleaming with mischief. “Are you interested-”

Before she could finish her sentence, Miranda interrupted her, saying, “I’m not interested. She handed her umbrella to Winter. “Aren’t you busy? Remember to protect yourself

from the sun.

Winter raised an eyebrow as she watched Miranda’s retreating figure. She hadn’t even said anything yet.

She looked down and glanced briefly at the information on the tender. She hadn’t been lying this time. The Johnson family was indeed one of the Jefferson family’s competitors.

Meanwhile, Hansel also chased Zach, Calvin, and the others out after sending Ingrid

away.

The bustling room suddenly became very quiet. Rubbing his temples, Hansel glanced at the needle in his hand and pulled it out without hesitation.

Blood immediately oozed out of his wound. Hansel frowned and grabbed a tissue to press on the bleeding site. After he found his coat, he put it on and prepared to leave.

Coincidentally, a nurse came in to change his IV drip just then. She saw that he was about to leave and tried to stop him immediately. “Mr. Johnson! You can’t leave the hospital yet!”

Hansel frowned and said, “Get out of my way!

The nurse wanted to persuade him further, but she didn’t dare to say another word after seeing the rage in his eyes and the cold air emanating from him.

She could only watch him leave and report his departure to the hospital’s management right away.

Hansel hated the smell of hospitals and despised the sense of powerlessness that came with being hospitalized. Now, he just wanted to go home.

Sure enough, he got a call from Evelyn soon after that. Hansel was focused on driving and didn’t answer.

However, Evelyn was persistent and made several calls in a row. Annoyed, Hansel had no choice but to answer the call. He pressed the answer button with one hand.

Evelyn’s urgent and anxious voice immediately came through. “The hospital just called me and said that you left without permission. Don’t you know the severity of your condition? You need to go back right now!”
