Frankie gazed longingly at Yvette and lamented, “Yvette, you are so merciless! I swear, I’ll never play cards again. As he spoke, he pushed his last chips towards her, having lost everything.
Yvette reclined with nonchalance, raising her gaze to reply indiferently, “Playing cards without using your brain will lead to defeat; relying solely on luck is pointless.”
Frankie fell silent. He wished he could think strategically, but he lacked the cleverness Yvette possessed.
Yvette then turned her attention to the other two, her eyes questioning whether Joe and Sienna wished to continue the
game.
Joe and Sienna stared at their meager pile of chips. If they kept playing, they would soon find themselves completely out of funds.
Yvette casually sipped her orange juice before rising from her seat. Addressing them slowly, she remarked. “It’s been amusing; maybe next time…
Frankie abruptly stood up. “No next time. Yvette. Our game isn’t suited for you, honestly.”
For a rare moment, all three agreed in silence; no one wanted to play with Yvette again. The inevitable outcome made the game entirely meaningless.
Yvette looked at them and shrugged, feeling somewhat rejected. She chose not to speak and retreated upstairs. A solitary genius often walks a lonely path.
The following morning, Silas returned to the lab. Although his vacation wasn’t over, he had cherished those ten days and felt content. Not only had Silas returned, but several senior researchers from the lab had also rejoined, bringing new energy to
the space.
Klein knocked on Silas’s door, holding the latest experimental report.
“Enter, Silás called out.
When Klein pushed open the door, he found Silas tending to a potted flower–the only bloom in the entire laboratory, which Silas cherished deeply. Silas personally pruned and cared for it; it seemed to be a gift from someone significant.
Klein adjusted his glasses and placed the documents on the desk speaking gravely. “Silas, I’ve compiled all of Yvette’s recent data for you. Yvette has resolved the issues with the enhanced No. 7 Toxin entirely.”
Silas set down the watering can and turned slowly, his restful ter lays having replenished his spirit. He looked at Klein and gently said, “Just place it there. The experiment has stabilized, so we can move forward.”
Sitting in his office chair, Silas regarded Klein and asked, “How has this past week been for you?”
The fact that Yvette hadn’t dismissed Klein indicated her endorsement.
Klein, his expression a mix of emotions, nodded respectfully and said earnestly, “Silas, Yvette is a genius. I’ve learned so much this past werk.”
Silas smiled warmly, reading the sincerity in Klein’s eyes. “You’re commendable too, otherwise, she wouldn’t have kept you This is an opportunity others can only dream of, you will collaborate with her on the remaining experiments for enhances No. 7 Toxin.”
Silas was truly surprised that only Klein remained, he hadn’t expected that everyone else wouldn’t meet expectations. Yet, it was a situation of their own creation.

Chapter 525
One day. Yvette’s true identity would undoubtedly be revealed, and he hoped the other interns wouldn’t regret their ci
Klein stood momentarily stunned by Silas’s praise. It was the first time he had ever received such commendation. He l often sought to build a better relationship with Silas for better resources, never imagining Yvette would be the one to p him such benefits.
As as reviewed the data, satisfaction lit up his expression. Yvette’s elliciency was unmatched; her only real flaw was a tendency towards laziness,
Klein quietly waited, and seeing the smile on Silas’s face, he understood just how pleased his superior truly was.
After reviewing all the data. Silas looked up at Klein and said, “You may go.”
Klein nodded but remained still. Silas, noticing his hesitation, asked, “What is it? Is there something else on your mind?
After a brief pause, Klein could no longer contain his curiosity and asked, “Silas, Yvette doesn’t have a degree from a prestigious university, nor is her name known in medical circles. Who exactly is she?”
Given Klein’s usual caution, he should have refrained from such questions, but curiosity got the better of him. This ques had been on his mind since Yvette arrived.
Silas’s expression darkened slightly, but he saw no malice in Klein’s eyes. After a moment, he replied. “In this world, many people are indifferent to fame and status; Yvette is one of them. One day, you’ll learn her true identity.”
Silas couldn’t reveal that Yvette graduated with perfect scores after just one year of university; as for fame, it likely meant little to her, possibly less than the value of a hamburger.
Realizing he could no longer press the matter, Klein left Silas’s office and returned to his desk, lost in thought.
Adrian, who usually got along with Klein, approached and placed a hand on his shoulder. “What are you daydreaming abo Kleint
