The Wife He Forgot to Marry (Winona and Yule) novel Chapter 663

Forrest Kane was also invited to speak on AI applications.

Karina hadn't expected him to be there. Thrilled, she discreetly pulled out her phone to take photos and record a video.

Suddenly, she noticed that from a certain angle, Forrest's profile looked strangely similar to Winona's.

She shook her head. Must be her imagination.

When Forrest finished his speech, he received the same roaring applause.

In the audience, a senior academic leaned over to a colleague and murmured, "There aren't many people left who are willing to put their heads down and do real research. Winona and Forrest are rare gems."

"If all young people were as grounded and dedicated to the science as them, this country would have a bright future," the colleague agreed.

After the summit concluded, Forrest approached Winona to say hello.

Winona had been fascinated by his presentation and asked him a few technical questions.

Forrest broke down the concepts for her, adding, "I'll send you a few papers when I get back. Once you read them, you'll have a much deeper understanding."

"That sounds perfect. Thank you," Winona nodded.

Listening to them volley complex medical jargon back and forth made Karina’s head spin. But that didn't stop her from admiring their stunning looks and their incredibly sexy brains.

She found herself envying Winona's ability to effortlessly keep up with Forrest's intellect. If she became as capable as Winona one day, would she finally have something to talk about with a guy like Forrest?

The thought sent a jolt of motivation through her. She wanted to be better.

After wrapping up the technical discussion, Forrest added, "Riverton University will be collaborating with your lab soon. We'll have plenty of opportunities to dive into this."

"Looking forward to it," Winona smiled.

Karina felt a flutter of excitement. That meant she would be seeing a lot more of Forrest.

Stefan's brow furrowed. "I'm calling your building's management right now. I'll pay for a brand-new AC unit. They're installing it tonight."

Without waiting for a response, he pulled out his phone and instructed his assistant to arrange the replacement immediately.

Winona let out a soft laugh.

That was Stefan. If it concerned her, he cared deeply. Being with him meant every problem was solved, every need was met. She never had to worry about the logistics of life, which allowed her to pour all her energy into her work.

She was truly falling deeper in love with him every day.

Ending the call, Stefan looked at her. "I'll put some ointment on that after you shower."

"Okay."

The next morning, the heat rash on her neck had faded significantly.

Before they left for work, Stefan inspected it, applied another layer of ointment, and slipped the tube into her purse. "Make sure you put it on again around noon."
