Rhea had never been jealous of anyone else besides Anastasia. However, she only felt that way as a child and desired attention. She felt her mother had treated Anastasia better than her and wondered why her parents favored Anastasia in her own home.
It honed Rhea’s feelings of dissatisfaction and unfairness. Still, she was no longer a little girl who yearned for her parents’ love but an independent and confident woman.
Rhea had always considered herself strong, capable, and somewhat of a prodigy. She knew she would make significant career progress and impress the world with her knowledge. However, this experiment’s repeated failure frustrated her.
Since the organization insisted on onboarding Lily, she had subconsciously hoped Lily would fail. Everyone encountered obstacles when conducting this experiment, so Rhea thought Lily should not be an exception. However, reality gave Rhea a hard blow, letting her know she was not as special as she thought.
But now, she had gotten slapped in the face again and still suffered a setback. The truth was before her eyes, even if she did not want to believe it. Lily had succeeded.
Rhea looked back at Lily, noticing her face remained neutral, even slightly unhappy. Meanwhile, Lily walked over unhurriedly and put one hand on her waist as she glanced at the computer. "Oh, I guess it is."
"What do you mean you guess it is?!" Rhea jumped up. "Lily Christian, drop the act! It’s just a fluke! Why are you so proud of it?!"
Rhea was already feeling terrible and got angry when she heard what Lily said. If Rhea had succeeded instead, she would have told the world and let everyone know her masterpiece was a success, framing it as her achievement.
However, Lily was calm about it.
