Jacob from the Dark Realm Returns novel Chapter 7

She took a deep breath and looked at the clock. She was about to be late.

Suppressing her emotions, Kaley brought all the documents and hurried away from the house.

Professor Powell was one of the top experts in the country, so she must not be late.

Kaley drove to the airport.

...

"Dear colleagues, I would like to introduce Professor Powell, who was internationally renowned, to you solemnly. Today, it's an honor that we have invited Professor Powell to help us tackle the chemical problem we're facing currently."

In the meeting room, Kaley introduced the professor to her colleagues in the Product Development Department.

She stood at the side, and in the middle was a vigorous middle-aged man with black-rimmed glasses.

"Professor Powell, we've been looking forward to meeting you for a long time."

"With you here, I'm sure we can solve all the problems we're facing."

"With Professor Powell's help, our product can finally be developed and launched as scheduled."

After a burst of applause, the researchers below all looked at Professor Powell excitedly.

He was a real badass, who had been once nominated for the Nobel Prize in chemistry. He was an expert in the cosmetics field, and he had helped develop many famous cosmetics in the country.

If anyone managed to impress Professor Powell and became his student or got recommendations from him thereafter, that person would soar up in his career.

"Everyone, don't flatter me. Before I know what we're dealing with, I can't guarantee anything," Professor Powell said with a smile.

However, in his heart, he was confident.

Few chemical problems in the cosmetics industry in the country could stump him.

"Professor Powell, this is the data of all our research and experiments in the past year."

This was classified information. For confidentiality concerns, they had not shown Professor Powell this data before.

"Okay."

Professor Powell took the file and read carefully.

A few hours later

Professor Powell looked gloomy.

He looked at Kaley apologetically, "President Harris, I'm sorry, but nobody in this country has tackled the problem you've encountered. Internationally, the perfect solution to this problem has not been found yet."

Kaley's face immediately turned pale. In order to hire Professor Powell, she had asked a lot of favors and pulled many strings.

Professor Powell was her only hope.

If even Professor Powell was unable to solve the problem they had encountered, that meant no one in the country could help them.

Not just in the country. According to Professor Powell, nobody in this world had found a perfect solution.

Did it mean that the "Gone with the Mist" project had no hope to succeed? In that case, what else could she do to save her company?

"Professor Powell, is there any solution?" There was a tinge of tremble in Kaley's voice.

Professor Powell sighed. He felt a little embarrassed. "To be honest, I have been studying this subject recently. I have some theories, but I still need to verify them one by one. It may take countless experiments, and there is no guarantee of success. Even if I can find the solution, I don't know how long it'll take. It could be a year, two years, or even longer..."

Not to mention two years, the company couldn't wait for even a year.

Kaley closed her eyes in despair, and the folder in her hand fell to the ground.

The files in the folder were scattered all over the place.

"What's this?"

Professor Powell was shocked when he saw the documents scattered on the ground and the scribbles on them.

Kaley realized that she had lost her composure. She hurriedly apologized to Professor Powell and tried to pick up the documents on the ground.

Those were the documents that Jacob had deliberately scribbled on in order to get back at her.

"Stop. Don't touch them."

Professor Powell suddenly jumped up from his chair excitedly. Then, he squatted down and picked up all the documents on the ground.

"Right!"

"That's it!"

"Why didn't I think of this before? I was so stupid!"

"Combining these two substances can actually produce this kind of reaction?"

"That's right. Theoretically, it's possible. Decomposition before re-composition, this method has never been heard in the entire history of chemistry. It'll shake the chemical world and help solve many problems."

The more he read, the more shocked Professor Powell became.

He murmured to himself.

He laughed, yelled out of shock, and frowned from time to time.

He was like a madman.

"Professor Powell, Professor Powell..."

Kaley hurriedly shouted.
