The Year She Stopped Being Crazy for Him novel Chapter 366

After lunch, Natalie headed straight back to the lab.

"Seven," Professor Adler said, standing by the door with a beaming smile. His tone was affectionate, and his eyes crinkled kindly.

Natalie paused. "With a smile like that, why do I have a bad feeling about this?"

"It's good news!" Professor Adler walked toward her. "Gideon Lennox is joining our team!"

She stared at him blankly. "Gideon Lennox?"

The name was definitely familiar. Anyone in their field knew who he was. He had been deeply involved in core robotics projects in Beleros Country for a long time, though his name hadn't been in the spotlight for the past few years.

"How did you manage that?" Natalie asked.

Professor Adler chuckled. "I really can't take credit for this one. He reached out to me on his own and asked to join us."

"On his own?"

She found that incredibly surprising. Someone who had practically fallen off the radar for years suddenly stepping forward voluntarily?

Professor Adler nodded. "I originally suggested we set a date to grab a proper dinner together, but he said he wanted to drop by this afternoon just to take a look around. Go wait for him at the entrance in a bit; I've got a crucial meeting to attend."

She nodded. "Got it."

"Oh, right, I'll send you his contact info," Adler said before rushing off.

Natalie added the messaging ID he sent over, and it wasn't long before Gideon accepted her request.

Out of habit, she clicked onto his social media feed, but it was completely empty.

[Hello, I'm Natalie, a member of Professor Adler's team. He asked me to show you around this afternoon. What time will you be arriving?]

[I'll be there in about twenty minutes.]

His reply was extremely concise.

Natalie checked the time on her watch and confirmed a meeting spot with him.
