The Queen Returns—And She's Unforgiving novel Chapter 221

As the elevator door opened, Evelyn and Sebastian stepped out to their floor.

Once they were gone, Tim and Kent exchanged glances with the others inside.

Tim could not help but remark, "Did anyone else notice how Mr. Hill treats Ms. Reed more like an equal than a subordinate? It's like he takes pride in having her on his team."

Quint Harrow, an engineer beside him, nodded. "She knows her stuff. I feel like I'm totally out of her league."

That caught Tim by surprise. Quint was one of the most experienced engineers in his company!

Flying Seal Group far exceeded their expectations.

…

A reception was held during the evening, mostly for everyone to get to know each other. Graham would be in attendance as well.

When Sebastian came to get her, Evelyn had just finished unpacking and changing into a comfortable outfit, with a trench coat to layer.

The event was held in one of the hotel's ballrooms. As they stepped in, Sebastian leaned in and said quietly to Evelyn, "My dad will be here soon. He might quiz you on your studies."

Evelyn could not help but tense up a little. She had been studying whenever she could while juggling with Flying Seal Group's project.

Completing the postgraduate degree under Graham was not easy. She would not take it lightly. Even if she had past achievements in military engineering projects, she had to spend more time improving herself.

Tim and Quint soon approached them.

Quint's face lit up when he saw Evelyn. Despite already being in his 40s, he greeted her eagerly.

"Ms. Reed, would you be willing to share your thoughts on the technical roadblocks we're facing in autonomous drone navigation and AI systems?" He believed that Evelyn would surely have insights on this topic.
