Substitute Marriage: Reborn As The Top Big-Shot
/ Substitute Marriage: Reborn As The Top Big-Shot Chapter 1705
Chapter 1705: 414: Unfamiliar Familiarity_4 Chapter 1705: 414: Unfamiliar Familiarity_4 Alnwick certainly knew what the purpose of scientific research was, “But if we insist on completing an experiment that leads to bad results when the outcome is predictable, can you or I bear that responsibility?”
With that said, Alnwick paused for a moment and continued, “Since Professor Thompson has managed to complete the Sight Restorer Plan, it means she is no ordinary person. Following her, there's absolutely no problem.”
Moreover, he felt Piloy was too arrogant.
She was willing to do anything just to prove herself.
From a certain perspective, such a person could not become a qualified scientific researcher.
Having said that, Delridge had nothing more to say, only commenting, “I hope your choice is not mistaken.”
After Alnwick left, Piloy emerged from On the other side and said to Professor Casla, “It's Alnwick's loss for not collaborating with us. You shouldn't take it to heart.”
Professor Casla pressed his temples with a worried touch, “But if they don't collaborate with us, how can the experiment proceed?”
Piloy narrowed her eyes, “There are plenty of others.”
Alnwick's absence was not a concern.
Seeing her like this, Professor Casla narrowed his eyes too, “Piloy, do you have other plans?”
Piloy didn't directly answer Professor Casla but smiled, “In any case, you don't have to worry about this matter.”
Once the experiment was completed, she was determined to make everyone who looked down on her be dazzled.
And the name Piloy would be forever inscribed on the milestone of human history.
Thinking this, Piloy's lips curved into a smile.
It was as if she had already completed the experiment.
Seeing Piloy so confident about the experiment, Professor Casla also breathed a sigh of relief and then suggested, “Shall I try to make an appointment with Professor Grant again?”
“Sure,” Piloy nodded.
Professor Grant had always known which way the wind blew.
On the other side.
Although Sweetie had run away, she was caught and brought back by her home tutor.
Sweetie, weeping, clasped her hands together and beseeched, “Please let me go, Mr. Ettinger! I'm really not cut out for studying.”
Mr. Ettinger looked at Sweetie and smiled, “Sweetie, you're a truly terrific and smart kid. You just don't want to study. If you put your mind to it, you'll definitely be able to find your path to success.”
“You're CPU-ing me,” Sweetie rolled her eyes at Mr. Ettinger.
“Where did you learn to talk like that?” Mr. Ettinger couldn't help but smile.
“Do I need to learn, with my natural talent?” Sweetie said with a face full of pride.
Mr. Ettinger patted Sweetie on the head and sighed, “If only you could apply that energy to your studies, your teacher would be very gratified.”
Just then, footsteps were heard outside the door.
Sweetie looked up.
Oh! It was Big Gray Wolf.
Remembering that Big Gray Wolf had let her off before, she felt he wasn't as bad as she had imagined and quickly hid behind Hale Bennett, “Uncle Hale, help me!”
Seeing Hale Bennett, Mr. Ettinger became a bit nervous and immediately stood up to greet him respectfully, “Mr. Bennett.”
Hale Bennett nodded, “Sweetie works pretty hard in her studies normally; Mr. Ettinger, give her the day off.”
Who dared not to give face to the God of War?
Hearing this, Mr. Ettinger immediately said, “Of course, Mr. Bennett. Then I'll be heading back.”
“Go ahead.”
Watching Mr. Ettinger's retreating figure, Sweetie was ecstatic. It seemed she was right; Big Gray Wolf wasn't all that bad.
“Thank you, Uncle Hale.”
Hale Bennett looked down slightly, “You've got the wrong person, haven't you?”
Sweetie paused, “You're not Uncle Hale?”
Hale Bennett corrected, “You should be calling me Big Gray Wolf.”
Hearing this, Sweetie feigned ignorance, “Big Gray Wolf? Is there a Big Gray Wolf here?”
Hale Bennett didn't press the issue and continued, “Where did you run off to this afternoon?”
Speaking of which, Sweetie became very excited, “Uncle Hale, let me tell you, today in Country Polluton I saw…”
She seemed to remember something mid-sentence; she had promised Gemma she would keep a secret.
So.
She couldn't let Big Gray Wolf know about it just yet.
Who knows if Big Gray Wolf will harm Gemma?
“Spotted such a beautiful girl! Even prettier than Cara Turner!”
At these words, Hale Bennett narrowed his eyes, “Really?”
Sweetie wasn't like other children her age, she was much more mature mentally.
Hale Bennett could see her hesitant and holding-back demeanor in her actions and speech.
It seemed.
She had encountered something special in Country Polluton.
“Mhm,” Sweetie nodded.
As soon as she finished speaking, Sweetie looked at Hale Bennett, “Uncle Bennett, I have to go now, I have other things to attend to!”
“Go ahead.”
No sooner had Sweetie left than Hale Bennett called his assistant over.
“Mr. Bennett.”
Hale Bennett, with his head down, fiddled with the silver ring on his finger and spoke indifferently, “Check what happened to Sweetie in Country Polluton.”
“Understood,” the assistant nodded.
“Furthermore,” Hale Bennett continued, “find two people to follow Sweetie, and keep an eye on her whereabouts these next few days.”
“Yes.”
“Barton!”
Cara Turner came over from On the other side.
Seeing Cara Turner, Hale Bennett walked over leisurely, “Has grandfather left?”
Cara Turner nodded, “Yeah.”
After speaking, Cara Turner continued, “Are you busy this afternoon?”
“Do you have something?” Hale Bennett asked.
Cara Turner brushed some stray hair behind her ear, smiling at Hale Bennett, “Nothing much, just wanted to chat with you.”
Although the two were engaged, they actually spent very little time together.
Hale Bennett was about to respond when his assistant reminded him, “Director, this afternoon you have an important meeting with some elders.”
Hearing this, Cara Turner immediately said, “Then you go, don't worry about me.”
Hale Bennett nodded, “I'll find you once I finish up what I'm working on.”
“Okay.”
At that moment, the assistant reminded again, “Director, it's time for the meeting.”
“Got it.”
Cara Turner then said, “Barton, you'd better go, don't delay important matters.”
“Mhm.”
With that, Hale Bennett turned and left.
Watching Hale Bennett's retreating figure, Cara Turner's eyes smiled; she was very content with her current situation.
With her love life settled, she could now focus on her career.
There were many people invited to the Su Banquet.
They came from all walks of society.
Although Piloy was a research scientist, she was quite close to Su in private, and hence, she too received Su's invitation.
Knowing that Viola Thompson was going to attend the banquet, Piloy narrowed her eyes and looked toward her assistant, “Did Miss Alice receive an invitation from Su?”
The assistant shook her head, “I don't think so.”
Alice's name wasn't on the guest list.
Hearing this, a faint smile appeared on Piloy's lips, “How can we miss Alice at such a lively party?”
The assistant was taken aback.
Not understanding the complication.
Before the assistant could respond, Piloy continued, “Go tell Su that Alice and I are very close friends. Ask him to send an invitation to Alice as well.”
A moment later, Piloy added, “Right, and find a way to let Alice know that Viola Thompson is also attending the banquet.”
Otherwise, knowing Alice's character, she wouldn't attend such a gathering.
