But what can loyalty get you?
The group moved on.
Kaselin continued to exhibit her disdainful deanor.
She wouldn't have given a laboratory like this a second glance in the past.
She wonders what Vincent Lee saw in it.
And, for this dilapidated laboratory, he had given up his Polluton citizenship.
In no ti, they had arrived at the cell cultivation rooms inside.
Inside the cell cultivation room, Viola Thompson was analyzing problems related to cell division.
Mila and Eva Stewart were standing by, listening attentively.
Kaselin swallowed hard.
Under normal circumstances, it should be Eva over there, doing the analysis for Mila and Viola.
After all, Eva was talented enough to get into Professor Joseph Cox's lab.
It's rumored that she held back a lot of her abilities during the written test of the assessnt competition.
She deliberately scored just enough to pass.
It's easy to score high, equally easy to score low, but to score neither high nor low requires skill.
But Eva managed to do that.
She not only entered Capital University with ease, but she also did so without creating a stir.
Unlike Viola Thompson, who always tended to attract everyone's attention before doing anything.
Kaselin squinted her eyes, sowhat baffled.
Viola did not seem exceptional to her.
She was just more beautiful than the average person.
But beauty doesn't necessarily an strength.
As York approached Viola, he introduced her, "Minister Rhonda, let introduce you to our engineer, Viola."
"Miss Thompson." Rhonda nodded at Viola.
"Minister Rhonda."
Viola gave a polite smile.
Glancing at Viola, Rhonda found this young woman was indeed different from others.
She had a calmness that others her age lacked.
Rhonda asked, "Miss Thompson, may I speak with Vincent Lee?"
Preferring things straightforward, she went directly to the point of her visit.
Rhonda admired Vincent Lee a lot.
She didn't want him to ruin his future just like that.
And she had always believed that Vincent could bring greater benefits to Polluton.
She had expected Viola to refuse directly.
To her surprise, Viola did not decline but responded in a calm tone, "As long as Vincent doesn't mind, I don't mind."
She left the decision to Vincent.
"Thank you, Miss Thompson," Rhonda replied.
Viola smiled faintly, "You're welco."
As she finished speaking, Viola looked at York, "Take Minister Rhonda to see Vincent."
"Understood," York nodded.
Rhonda and others followed York's steps.
Soon, they arrived at Vincent's office.
He was engrossed in so data, oblivious of the newcors.
York knocked on the open office door.
"Vincent."
Vincent finally noticed, "York."
His gaze fell on the others, "Min...Minister Rhonda?"
At a previous biology competition, Vincent had seen Minister Rhonda once. He had a good mory and instantly recognized her when they t again.
Upon hearing this, Minister Rhonda smiled, "Long ti no see, Mr. Lee."
Vincent set down his paperwork and readjusted his glasses, "Long ti, indeed."
Minister Rhonda continued, "Mr. Lee, I would like to have a chat with you alone if that's convenient?"
"Sure," Vincent nodded.
Upon hearing this, York and Kaselin left the office.
As the last one out, Kaselin shut the door behind her.
York looked back, sowhat worried.
Previously, he didn't know much about Vincent beyond the fact he was a prodigy who had made international news many tis since childhood. This ti, he had joined the S Laboratory, even giving up his Polluton citizenship and cutting ties with his parents. From the looks of it, it was obvious why Minister Rhonda was here.
At this mont, he could only hope that Vincent would remain steadfast and not betray Viola.
Inside the office.
Vincent, looking at Rhonda, said, "Let get you so water."
"Alright," Rhonda nodded.
Vincent poured Rhonda a cup of water into a disposable cup.
Rhonda received the cup with both hands, "Thank you."
"You're welco."
After taking a sip of water, Rhonda got right to the point, "Mr. Lee, I suppose you can guess why I'm here."
Vincent replied, laughing, "I'm not really sure."
"Then I'll cut to the chase," Rhonda set down the disposable cup, "I hope you can voluntary revoke your application to renounce your Polluton citizenship. You've accomplished a lot today and it wasn't easy, Mr. Lee. You mustn't let one misstep lead to a lifeti of regrets."
