After hanging up the phone, I got up and slowly approached the lab door.
Soon, I discovered the source of the disturbance: there was a spill
Sealed reagent bottle near the fume hood closest to the door.
Someone must have been here!
Yet there was deathly silence around them, not a single person in sight, save for the flickering overhead lights that gave off a pale glow.
Although the lab was heated, at that moment I felt an eerie chill.
” Hello ? Anyone there ? ” My voice changed slightly with nervousness
I certainly did mind being spied on, but what worried me most was that there shouldn’t be a third person here other than me and Charlotte right now.
“Charlotte? It’s you ? I tentatively called out Charlotte’s name, and slowly made my way to the lab door.
The moment I opened the door, a black shadow suddenly entered.
“Oh!!! I yelled.
“Oh!!! Another scream followed.
I took a closer look.
“Charlotte? It was Charlotte standing in front of me.
” You scared me ! ”Charlotte patted her chest in lingering fear, and the documents of her in her hands scattered on the floor.
“You just scared me! I refused to take the blame, “Why did you keep quiet? ”
Charlotte quickly apologized to me.
I bent down to help pick up the scattered documents, feeling a sense of relief. _
At that moment right now, who knows how many horror movie scenes went through my mind!
Luckily, it was only one person.
But then my head hurt again.
Info page split now
I swear I will never make personal calls at work again!
First, Lester listened to me last time, and now Charlotte!
It was Charlotte!
Looking at my assistant, who couldn’t meet my eyes, I could already feel the discomfort.
She must have thought that after all this time, I should have ended the call. But she didn’t expect to hear about me and Aaron the moment she walked in.
Because it was too unexpected, he made a panicked noise and then fled the scene.
Unfortunately, at this time, it was just the two of us here. _
His escape seemed completely unnecessary.
“I’m so sorry,” Charlotte said again.
It seemed that she was also feeling embarrassed now.
I sighed. _ “Stop apologizing. Let’s talk about it.”
Documents in hand, Charlotte and I headed back to our work stations
The silent laboratory was filled with shame again.
I bite the bullet and brought up the subject.
“Actually, things aren’t what you think…” I wanted to mention Aaron’s name, but found I was too embarrassed to tell Charlotte.ninjanovel.com fast update.
Charlotte looked at me, as if expecting my follow-up.
“I mean, even though it happened, it’s over and done with. I hope you don’t mention it again, not by anyone.”
