Lydia saw the scene and couldn’t help but smile.
Peyton was practically bouncing with excitement. “They’re calling this ‘mysterious power.’ Seriously, this is awesome!”
Marilyn and Yara looked like they were about to lose it. They were supposed to be the stars of the competition, but they’d gotten knocked out in the first round. Now Lydia was leading a whole team straight to the next stage. It was almost painful to watch them try to keep their cool.
After saying goodbye to the others, Lydia slipped into Connor’s car.
He honestly hadn’t expected Lydia’s trip for the international exam to be this intense. She was so busy she barely had time to eat, and he couldn’t help but feel a little protective.
“What do you want for dinner?” he asked.
Lydia raised an eyebrow. “Anything’s fine.”
She pulled out her phone and made a call.
The voice on the other end picked up immediately, sounding a little too excited. “Professor! You finally remembered me!”
Lydia let out a soft laugh. “I need to borrow your newest surgical robot. I’ll give it back tomorrow.”
“No problem at all, Professor! Use it as long as you want. Where are you? I’m out of the country, but I’ll have someone deliver it to you right away.”
Lydia shared the address, then hung up without another word.
Connor glanced over at her. “Was that one of your students?”
“Kind of. I helped guide him a bit.”
Connor nodded. “You know, I could just buy you one.”
She shot him a look. “Are you trying to waste money? I only need it for a couple of hours to run through some drills. No need to buy a whole robot.”

thank u!...
Olha a história bem boa só algumas coisas são chatas ( nesse tipo de história sempre troca as filhas pela a da empregada ou então pegam uma menina pra criar) pelo menos eles tratam a filha bem só enche o saco que até agora a Lucinda tá lá enchendo ! Fora isso tá bom Connor é um fofo a família dela a ama muito só Lucinda pra abaixar o nível do livro já era pra ter resolvido isso e fazer ela pagar mais tudo bem li um livro chinês que era parecido só algumas coisas diferentes ,ais mesma coisa tipo ela salvou o Connor no início lá ela salvava o avô dele , no chinês ela não tinha um irmão mais novo com os pais adotivos , a mãe dela tinha 2 irmãos e todos os avós estavam vivos mais história quase igual e tem coisas tipo o triângulo que lá TB tinha até a Lucinda que no chines TB ficou o livro todo aprontando só no final a família descobria e se livrava dela aí ela ia morar com o cara que ela usa pra disfarçar que não gosta do Connor aí depois ainda quase matava a irmã dele e a mãe dele que ele via como ela era...

Every chapter is missing a sentence from the end of every chapter. It’s frustrating to try guess what’s missing or said...
