Seriously?
Even Jalen, a Ph.D. who returned to the country after studying abroad, couldnt solve such a core issue immediately!
Keira was only an undergraduate. Even if Professor Miller praised her talent, could she solve it no matter how well she defied expectations?
Luca thought those things as he clicked the mouse. He opened that email, and then, he blinked!!
Bang!
Jalen slammed the documents he held onto the table
and raised his chin slightly. Meeting time!
Luca didnt respond immediately. Instead, he was staring at that email.
Luca! Is your butt glued to the chair?!
Jalen was in a bad mood, and seeing Luca moving slowly, he shouted angrily.
Luca glanced at the content of the email, saw that it

was a blank file, and immediately stood up. Coming.
Im coming
Keira failed to solve the problem, and she had probably sent this email by mistake.
When he left his computer, the attachment that had
just finished buffering in the email was lying quietly in
the interface
In the office.
Jalen frowned and briefly explained the situation at the just concluded meeting. He didnt mention Keira and just said, In two days, if this core issue cannot be solved, Ill resign.
The moment these words came out, the office became quiet.
Jalen did have a temper and often scolded them, but he was a qualified team leader, and they all respected him.
After a while of silence, everyone started talking.
Jalen, just tell us what to do
Yes, for the next two days, we wont sleep. Lets do our best!

Jalen delegated work, increasing each employees workload several times, yet nobody complained.
It was only after the meeting that Jalen felt like he had forgotten something
He suddenly turned to Luca. Wheres Keira?
How come she wasnt at work yet?
Luca shook his head, but another person said, She
came in in the morning, clocked in, and then went to the library.
The complexion on Jalens face instantly turned gloomy!
He was struggling against Jake for her, but that wom had gone out again?!
Someone couldnt help saying, Jalen, shes too ungrateful. If she worked with us on this project, she would gain so much work experience!
Luca didnt agree with Keiras approach but still spoke for her. She just graduated from college. She doesnt understand these things Besides, our stuff is too complicated for her. She probably wont understand
Were a team. Even if she doesnt understand she

should still stay and help at this key moment, right? Is she taking a salary and not working? Who does that!
Thats right. Whats wrong with this girl? Is our team beginning to keep loafers?
Jalen took a deep breath, feeling that Keira was ungrateful!
On the roof.
Tom had been keeping an eye on the situation below and knew more about it than Group One. He was complaining to Lewis.
Jalen is working frantically for her while she is leisurely reading in the library all morning She is a
real femme fatale!
Lewis frowned, his cool scrutinizing eyes glancing at Tom. Reading all morning?
Yes, she clocked in and went there. She hasnt even had lunch yet!
What book?
I didnt pay attention to that. I assume its a paper on

new energy?
You assume?
The clear displeasure in Lewiss voice gave Tom a chill, but he suddenly realized something. Shes been targeting the library since she started working, so her purpose in joining Horton Group is to search for information?
What book she was reading became hugely important!
Tom bowed his head, Ill find out now!
But Lewis had already stood up. He was buttoning his blazer as he walked briskly out, only leaving a word
behind. Dont bother.
He quickly arrived at the library and found her among the books in the neurology category.
She was looking up, her eyes swiftly sweeping across a row of books, then coming to rest at the highest level
of the shelf.
She then saw something. She dragged over a ladder, climbed up, and reached for the book.
She was wearing a loose hooded sweatshirt today, along with skinny jeans.

Her movement raised the lower hem of her sweatshirt, revealing her leg.
From Lewiss perspective, her legs were slender and straight, and her jeans wrapped around the pretty curves of her derriere, above which was her fair waist!!
Lewis paused and slowly looked away. Her fair waist seemed to be imprinted on his brain and sparked a thought in his mind. Her waist is so thin that I can wrap my hand around it.
Keira didnt notice him. After getting the book, she casually flipped through it, and her eyes suddenly lit
The book she wanted to find was this one!
Overjoyed, she momentarily forgot she was still on the ladder and stepped forward as if she wanted to go to the seat next to her, but her foot missed the step, and
she lost her balance!
Now she was in trouble.

Just as Keira thought of this, she fell into the warm and strong arms of someone
It was only then she realized that Lewis caught her.

The two were very close, and she could smell his
vanilla fragrance. His large hand was holding her butt, and the burning heat from his palm went through her
thin jeans
Keiras heart suddenly skipped a beat, and she felt so embarrassed!
But she understood that he didnt mean to do that. It was just a coincidence.
Keira hastily jumped down, calming herself down. Mr. Horton, thank you.
She blushed a little.
Lewis paused, subconsciously looking at his empty
hand.
She was so light and soft The touch just now made him suddenly feel a bit parched, He had been running the business for years, but for the first time, he felt a
little at a loss.
He lowered his gaze, his eyelashes slightly trembling. He controlled himself and said, Youre welcome.
There was a moment of awkward silence.
Keira cleared her throat. I ijst remembered I had
79
something to do in the RD department. I need to go back.
Okay.
With Lewiss permission, Keira quickly hid the book she just found in a corner out of sight, worried someone else might borrow it, then left the library.
By the time she reached the elevator, her face was still burning a little.
Keira casually grabbed something to eat and returned to Group On in the research department.
As soon as she entered, she noticed something was wrong right away.
The colleagues who were originally quite friendly toward her now seemed like they didnt see her
Kira didnt understand and just thought everyone was not familiar with her.
In the afternoon, she went to the library again.
But she was stopped by Luca, who said in a low voice, Dont go in the afternoon
89
Why
Kira was puzzled: Didnt they say that as long as my own work is done, I can go?
Luca immediately looked around and indeed saw the odd looks from his colleagues.
He too started to become impatient and said bitterly, Yes, once the work is done, you can go, but have you finished the work I assigned you last week?
Yes, its done!
I know its difficult and you cant solve it overnight, so you need to stay here and. wait, what?!
