"Who is she? Is she some kind of little princess from one of the big families on Lone Island? Even Judson's being super polite to her. Could she be the VIP everyone's talking about?" Tina's curiosity was piqued.
Wasn't it said that Kruiz was hosting a VIP today, which is why outsiders weren't allowed in?
Could she really be that guest?
Kylie frowned even deeper.
A VIP?
A young girl doesn’t quite fit the profile.
She guessed that Kruiz was likely hosting a family head from one of the prominent families, and this young girl was probably just the daughter of one of them.
That's why Judson was being so courteous.
Life just isn’t fair sometimes. She'd been slogging away at the medical base for years, and it still didn’t measure up to being born into the right family.
"Alright, let's get going," Kylie said, tearing her eyes away and striding off.
Tina quickly caught up with her.
...
Inside the lab.
"Hey, Flora, there you are!" Kruiz beamed with joy at the sight of Flora, his laughter filling the room.
The others quietly facepalmed.
Seriously, Master.
Could you try to maintain some dignity?
Flora greeted him politely.
"Flora, if there's anything you're not comfortable with here, just holler. Honestly, with your skills, you could jump straight into being a mentor at the base!" Kruiz chuckled heartily.
Flora wasn’t interested. Being a mentor meant giving lectures.
Too much effort.
"By the way, Flora, why don't you come work in my lab after your entrance test?" Kruiz rubbed his hands together, looking hopeful. "We’re pretty laid-back here. Come in whenever you like, and the food’s way better than at the base. We’re talking sweet and sour pork ribs, butter garlic prawns, steamed bass... whatever you fancy, I'll get it made for you! Plus, we’ve got milkshakes and desserts in the afternoons. How does that sound?"
Kruiz grinned mischievously, like a big bad wolf trying to lure her in.
