Logan and Janice didn’t utter a single word, yet both fixed warm, expectant grins on Julia, hanging on every word she was about to say.

Julia’s spirits were light, and she smiled softly. “Our conversation with Dr. Mercer got cut off halfway through, but from the way he spoke. I’m pretty sure everything’s going to work out.”

Sophia practically lit up with uncontainable excitement the second the words left Julia’s lips. “Oh my gosh, I/knew it! I just knew you’d pull this off!”

She hadn’t fully grasped what it meant to be Dr. Mercer’s official mentee at first. It wasn’t until someone filled her in on D Mercer’s unmatched standing within the global AI industry, and told her about his roster of former pupils-all of whom hai gone on to pioneer groundbreaking tech research and rise as undisputed industry trailblazers, wielding far greater clout and recognition than Johnny could ever hope to attain.

So in Sophia’s mind, once Julia officially joined Dr. Mercer’s lab, it would only be a matter of time before she outshone Johnny entirely, raking in far bigger paychecks and earning far more prestigious acclaim. It was no wonder she could barely contain her thrill.

Sophia wasn’t the only one thinking along those lines, either. Tracy, Janice, and Logan all shared that exact same hopeful mindset.

Janice’s face softened into a warm smile as she reached out, patting Julia’s palm gently between her own hands. “Word travels fast that Dr. Mercer holds his direct students to impossibly high, rigorous standards. Work hard from here on out, and don’t let him down.”

Julia nodded with a quiet smile. “I won’t.”

She intended to seize this opportunity with everything she had.

No one craved this breakthrough more fiercely than she did.

With that thought swirling in her head, her gaze drifted across the ballroom to land on Maggie.

Maggie had risen to fame long before Julia ever stepped foot in elite tech circles, but the future belonged to her-Julia was certain of it.

Sophia followed her line of sight, spotted Maggie across the room, and let out a sharp huff of disdain. “Let her soak up all the attention for now. Once you’re officially Dr. Mercer’s student and publish your own groundbreaking research papers, you’ll wipe the floor with her achievements. We’ll see how smug she acts then!”

Tracy exhaled a long breath of relief and echoed the bitter remark with a scoff. “Exactly right.”
