Chapter 173
Olivia was checking something out in a separate lab nearby.
It was the video of her grandpa’s heart attack on that day.
They were all taken by the satellite. At the moment, the storage space of The Nimbus Gaze was not that big. The unimportant information would continue to be covered once a month.
She tapped on the keyboard twice with her fingertips and instantly pulled up the route her grandpa had taken that day.
He went to the park to exercise in the morning and returned home. His illness acted up in the afternoon… There was nothing abnormal about him.
Olivia’s beautiful eyes narrowed. She tapped a few times and pulled up Gillian’s route of action that day.
Gillian brought breakfast, went to the hospital, and returned home at
noon…
Something was wrong here!
Olivia suddenly frowned, and her fingers flew across the keyboard. The images on the display screen changed rapidly like a dazzling shadow, changing dozens of shapes almost every second.
“Dang, dang…” A dry and crisp knock sounded on the door.
Olivia turned a deaf ear to it as if she did not hear it. Her face was expressionless.
The knocking on the door was persistent. It continued and kept increasing in strength.
Who would come at this hour?
Olivia stopped what she was doing and frowned slightly. As she kicked with the tip of her foot, the rolling chair beside her slammed into the door with a whoosh. The back of the chair was hooked onto the handle. The door opened!
A tall and handsome figure appeared. It was Gary.
“Miss Taylor.” Gary nodded politely to show his respect to her before looking inside.
A young woman was sitting in the laboratory From Cant’s and
Billionaire’s Missing
could only see half of her right side profile.
However, the young woman’s side profile made people gasp in shock. Her eyebrows were as delicate and exquisite as an ancient painting, and each stroke was delicately drawn. She was gorgeous.
So Taylor was pretty.
In Gary’s impression, the girls with good grades were rarely beautiful. It wasn’t that they weren’t pretty enough, but that they rarely dressed up. Their color was dull and light without strong or vibrant colors, which made them less beautiful.
But Olivia was different.
Gary, a straight man majoring in science, actually thought of an ancient poem that depicted, “Yet you despise the color of makeup.”
“Come in.” Olivia tapped her chin lightly, revealing her exquisite chin. Her facial features were exquisite and delicate, but when they combined, not only was she not soft and adorable, but she was also cold and indifferent. She exuded an imposing aura when she raised her eyebrows slightly.
Gary walked in clumsily with his back a little stiff.
“Go ahead and ask me.” Olivia analyzed the results. The computer screen was blank, with only a simple timeline.
“Huh?” Gary was stunned for a moment without any reaction
Olivia tapped her toes, and the swivel chair suddenly turned, bringing her to face Gary.
She tilted her head. There was a pen between her fingers. Her eyes were slightly puzzled as she said, “Aren’t you here to ask me questions?” Gary had indeed come to ask her questions but had been so surprised just then that he had forgotten about it.
He nodded quickly.
“Sit down, please.” Olivia turned around and placed the pen on the table. She tapped her fingertips on the table and said calmly, “Ask whatever you want to ask. There’s no need to be reserved.”
Liking a robot that had received an order, Gary immediately found a place to sit.
There were not many chairs in the spacious laboratory. Gary looked around and could not find a suitable chair. He ran to the corner and sat

down on a small stool.
What was he doing?
Olivia’s slightly opened eyes flashed with genuine surprise.
Gary was like a match that had been lit suddenly when he met her gaze. His entire body was on fire, his face was flushed, and his mind was in a daze. He no longer had the cold and arrogant look of the school hunk. Instead, he was like a little fool who was at a loss.
He slapped his forehead hard and was secretly embarrassed. He was stupid. What the hell was he doing here?
Olivia raised her eyelids, and her eyes slowly swept over to the young man. She took in his current appearance and chuckled. “I’m not a real teacher. You don’t have to reflect on yourself.”
Gary was about to die from embarrassment. He lowered his head, pulled up the chair at the door, and sat on it.
After the series of stupid actions, the embarrassment in Gary Adams’s heart completely disappeared, leaving only questions.
“Do you know who I am? How do you know I’m here to ask questions?” asked Gary, looking up at Olivia.
“Gary Adams?” Olivia’s voice carried a hint of doubt.
Her voice was unique. It was cold and deserted, but there was a hint of focus and certainty.
“How did you know me?” asked Gary, looking up in shock.
Olivia smiled. “Isn’t that hard to guess? It’s easy to spot a kitten mixed in with a group of cats.”
Gary smiled foolishly with her. Indeed, they were the only two young guys on the base. Their genders were different, and anyone with a brain would notice.
However, there was one more question. “How did you know I was here to ask you questions?”
Olivia raised her eyebrows slightly and asked, “Isn’t it?”
Yes. Gary nodded. He was indeed here to ask her questions.
He quickly poured out all his confusion.
At first, Olivia’s expression was still a little calm, but slowly, her brows furrowed tighter and tighter, and her eyes narrowed.
