After chatting for a while, Roxanna said she had something else to do and ended the video call.
She helplessly placed the phone down on the side table and felt conflicted while thinking about Nicole and Chloe's worried expressions.
She felt useless for still making them worry about her. When would she truly grow up? Nicole and Chloe had not hidden anything from her since they lived together. However, she could tell they were being secretive about something now, but it wasn't about the research center.
Both research centers were interlinked. If the research center abroad had any issues, the local research center would be notified as well.
However, none of the employees had reported anything, which meant everything was going well.
What else could they be worried about?
"Colton?" As soon as that name popped up in her mind, her eyes lit up. I must ask Isaac when he comes tomorrow.
On the other hand, Nicole stared at the kitchen, deep in her thoughts after hanging up the video call. Then, she stood up and walked toward the other area.
Her morning sickness had been severe the past two days. Chloe felt sorry for her and helped with the reports, and Nicole would do the same whenever she felt better.
With this arrangement, all the burden was on Chloe. As such, it was inevitable that she felt tired.
In the dark room, only the faint light from the phone illuminated Chloe, who was curled up in a ball on the bed. She kept replaying the scene of meeting Kendrick like a PowerPoint slide.
"Mr. Hofstead, I talked to our person in charge last night. I'm sorry, but we don't plan on doing that. Let's just stick to what we've been doing before."
Chloe looked at Kendrick, who came alone like the day before. She didn't know why his secretary, who was always close by, was absent. However, she knew that it was his idea and the rest didn't know about this. If it wasn't for this, she would have a 50 percent chance of succeeding.

What a waste of reading! This could have been an excellent novel if it hadn't skipped chapters after 531 and then everything is garbled. Get your act together if you still want a reading audience!!!...
