The Queen Returns—And She's Unforgiving novel Chapter 12

"I'm sorry…" Evelyn apologized as her eyes reddened.

Sebastian was instantly angered, but he could not stand to see her look so sad. "What are you apologizing for? Weren't you adamant about changing fields three years ago? If anything, you should apologize to your ancestors instead."

Evelyn had a bittersweet feeling.

In truth, Sebastian knew that she would attend the competition. Justine had run her mouth and informed him about everything in advance.

"It's not too late, though." He looked up at the sky and sighed.

"As long as you're able to come to your senses, it's never too late for you to start again. With your ability, you're able to join any company you want. It's the Flying Seal Group's honor to have you."

Evelyn had been capable enough to have been specially recruited by the Aerospace Research Institute, so her talents should not be buried and wasted.

Throughout the years, everyone was in awe of the development of the UN2 combat drone. Everyone had assumed that he was the brainchild of it, resulting in a lot of people joining the Flying Seal Group.

In truth, the UN2 combat drone was something Evelyn had developed when she was 20 years old. Up until that day, no one was able to surpass her.

She had given the people so many years to catch up with her, yet no one had been able to replicate her thoughts and skills from years ago.

"Are you allowing me to join the Flying Seal Group?" Evelyn exclaimed, overwhelmed with emotion.

With a frigid smile, Sebastian explained, "Justine has already made the decision to let you become the company's technical shareholder. I'll wait and see what you have to offer to the Flying Seal Group. You can report to the company on Monday!"

Evelyn knew that he was just being stubborn, and a genuine smile appeared on her face. It was the happiest she had felt in a long time. "Thank you, Sebastian."

He snorted before continuing to mingle around with the crowd.

A heavy burden had been released from Evelyn's heart, and she brightened up. The discomfort she felt had also morphed into a newfound energy.

Then, she rose to her full height and began observing the drones in the arena.

Suddenly, she heard a commotion up ahead. Looking up, she saw Lucas and Tiffany entering the venue with Jason and Mason beside them.

Lucas was an influential figure within Clementon, and his arrival had caused quite a stir.

Seeing how considerate Lucas was in protecting Tiffany from the crowd around him, Evelyn collected her gaze and stopped paying them attention.

Instead, she focused on observing the uniquely designed drone before her.

Jason and Mason had also noticed Evelyn but relaxed when they saw how Lucas had not spared her a single glance.
