She's out of Your League Now (Millie and Winston) novel Chapter 411

Chapter 411 

Layla was about to answer the female researcher’s question when her gaze fell on Millie. 

“Professor Cadmore, why did you bring an irrelevant person into the lab?” 

“What do you mean by irrelevant? This is my granddaughter!” Layla snapped, her displeasure evident in her tone. 

The researcher sized Millie up with hostility. Despite that, Millie wasn’t bothered by her look. She was indeed an outsider, after all. 

“Naomi, this is my granddaughter. She’s not an outsider,” Layla repeated. 

Naomie Jaeger was an important figure in the lab. However, her arrogance often rubbed people the wrong way. She looked down on others and considered herself superior. 

Yet, the rarity of such talent meant that Layla and the team had to put up with her. She was an outstanding researcher selected from a hundred candidates. Despite her flaws, her skills were undeniable. 

Naomi couldn’t be bothered with that. She then said, “Professor Cadmore, I’ve been in this lab for many years. There’s something I need to say.” 

Layla raised a hand, signaling her to continue. Though she held significant authority, she never put on airs. 

She understood that everyone was working toward a common goal and felt that there was no room for disdain. However, as with any group, there were always a few who didn’t quite fit in. 

“We’ve been working on this for years with no success. Clearly, this problem is unsolvable. I think we should consider dissolving the team once the deadline arrives, 

Naomi suggested. 

The mention of dissolving the team caused Layla’s expression to turn solemn immediately. 

After years of research and significant investment, how could Naomi suggest they just quit? Once committed to a research project, there was no turning back. 

“We haven’t made any major breakthroughs in years, and I doubt we will soon. Professor Cadmore, I’m proposing this for the sake of the team and you.”
