    ‘Oh, I see! It’s the kind of affection that elders have for younger generations!‘ Josie quietly let out a breath, her eyshes trembling slightly. She felt a trace of disappointment, yet also a sense of reassurance.

    It bwas /bgood that he liked her. Whatever kind of liking it was, it was still bliking/b.

    That bwas /bba /bgood thing.

    In an instant, sheposed herself and looked up at him with a smile. “I know! If you didn’t like me, you wouldn’t treat me so well!”

    “You know?” Sean asked skeptically.

    Josie nodded solemnly. “Of course I know. Not just you, but also Patti, Professor Delh, and ire… you all like me, that’s why you’re bso /bgood to me! Right? I like you all very, very much. You are my only family bin /bthis world!”

    All the warmth missing from her childhood, she had found in them. She was truly grateful.

    Sean knew she had misunderstood again, but he didn’t exin further. “I’ll be even better to you in the future, and you will have more and more loved ones. Josie, you deserve all the beautiful things in life!

    “Oh!” Josie’s face flushed red. “You’re making me shy, Sean. Don’t be so good to me, you’ll spoil me!”

    Sean smiled warmly and bsaid/b, “It’s okay. With me here, you will always be the best!”

    Because he would let her be herself, happily andpletely, without any worries.

    They had reached the dormitory entrance.

    Josie waved goodbye, thinking it was a pity she hadn’t managed to bfind /bout about Elliot’s situation. Still, she really should find time to visit the Reedshaw estate; maybe she’d run into Elliot then.

    Just as she was about bto /bgo upstairs, she heard Sean’s reminder from behind. “I’ll look into Elliot’s matter. Tell your friend not to get involved anymore.”

    Josie’s heart skipped a beat. “She really didn’t tell me anything!

    “Yeah!” Sean smiled broadly. “I know. I didn’t say she said anything. I’m just giving you a heads–up in advance. Elliot is not someone bto /bbe trifled with!”

    Josie was silent for a moment. “If I offend him, will he give her internship report a negative evaluation?”

    Sean could not suppress hisughter. “Well, it’s hard to say. In any case, it’s best not to provoke him. Of everyone in the Reedshaw family, he is the one I fear most.

    Josie returned to the dormitory, visibly preupied. Upon seeing Allison, her expression fell. “Allison, perhaps you should consider bliking /bsomeone else. Let’s forget about Elliot.”

    “Tve already told you I didn’t…” Allison said,cking confidence. “What’s wrong with you? Does Mr. Reedshaw really have some… problem?”

    Josie said, “I don’t know if he has problems, but I do know that if you provoke him, your internship evaluation will most likely be very bad.”

    Matters of the heart couldn’t be influenced by outsiders. Just like how Aiden simply didn’t like Natalie. There bwas /bno bway /bto force it.

    Aiden looked at the documents Natalie bwas /bbringing over, making no move to take them.

    He said. “I have decided to withdraw from the team and will probably not continue this line of research in the future. There is a considerable amount of material, much of which could be published as papers with some organization. I’m giving all of it to you.”

    Natalie stared at Aiden in disbelief. ‘Aiden… What do you mean by that? Are you… Are you asking me to publish these academic papers?‘

    Although this was precisely bwhat /bshe had in mind when she initially coaxed Kyle Langton into stealing Aiden’s data.

    She was about to enter her fifth year and so far hadn’t published any decent papers.

    Her only achievement was probably joining David’s team and winning a third prize in a universitypetition with the team.

    However, within the medicalmunity, this can hardly be regarded as an achievement.

    Evenpared to Josie, she had nothing noteworthy to put on her resume!!

    She desperately needed some academic credentials to prove herself!
