As soon as Kayla Sullivan turned around, her companions imdiately walked over, curiously asking, "Kayla, was that your friend just now? She's so pretty."
The speaker was a college classmate of Kayla Sullivan.
Also a Sinian.
Kayla Sullivan had co to Feki Island this ti to attend an academic conference with forr group mbers from her research topic.
There were ten of them.
Upon hearing her classmate's words, Kayla Sullivan replied nonchalantly, "Uh-huh, just a normal friend."
She emphasized the word 'normal' in particular.
Viola Thompson might be a top research expert, but to her, that doesn't an much.
She could only ever be a normal friend.
"A normal friend?"
Upon hearing this, Sasha, another of the group, added, "If I'm not mistaken, wasn't that Miss Thompson who completed the Sight Restorer Plan not too long ago?"
The na Miss Thompson is known worldwide.
But very few people have ever seen her in person.
Sasha knew her only because she has a younger sister studying at Capital University who had posted a picture of Viola Thompson online, otherwise, she wouldn't have recognized her either.
"Yeah, you saw right."
Kayla Sullivan said with a smile, "That was Miss Thompson, the one who completed the Sight Restorer Plan. But in my view, who she is and what she has accomplished doesn't matter to . What matters is her personality and character."
So what if Viola Thompson is a top-tier scientist?
She's still a howrecker who only knows how to ddle in other people's love lives!
She knew Terrence Lentz before Viola did.
Such audacity.
Upon hearing this, Sasha and the other students looked baffled.
They wondered just how powerful the Sullivan Clan was in Sinian Country, for even Viola Thompson, to Kayla, could only ever be a normal friend!
It seed like sothing had occurred to Zhao Simin, as she then said, "Kayla, if I heard correctly just now, Miss Thompson had ntioned that a typhoon is expected today. She suggested we head back to the hotel. Since we're not in a hurry, shall we retreat for now?"
Upon hearing this, Sasha imdiately followed up, "Did Miss Thompson really say that?"
"Hmm."
Rydner, standing on the side, nodded, "Yes, I heard it too."
Kayla Sullivan furrowed her brows slightly.
A typhoon?
The sea was calm at the mont, the sky clear with only gentle breezes. How could there be a typhoon!
Viola Thompson was clearly just showing off!
Being a researcher, how could she possibly know anything about teorology.
Kayla Sullivan detested Viola Thompson's know-it-all deanor.
Because she could spew out nonsense without facing any consequences!
If there was no typhoon an hour later, Viola Thompson would surely make up an excuse, claiming that she was a researcher and not a teorologist, and that even professional teorologists could make mistakes, let alone a layman like her!
"Maybe we should head back. We can depart tomorrow morning instead."
"Yes, yes, yes."
At this point, Kayla Sullivan interjected with a laugh, "Miss Thompson only made a casual remark, and you all took her seriously? If there really was a typhoon, the ferry would have ceased services by now! You think the teorologists are just eating for free?"
With that, Kayla Sullivan continued, "Although Miss Thompson is impressive, there's no need to treat her words as gospel, is there?"
These people were like sycophants.
Such a sight was disgusting!
She would never stoop to their level.
On hearing this, Sasha said, "But Miss Thompson has already gone back."
"Those who wish to return may do so, but I must make it back to the Nine Continent Island today," retorted Kayla Sullivan. "You can all put in your leave of absence with the professor."
Tiffany Golemon squinted her eyes and stood next to Kayla with a smile, "I'll go back with Kayla."
They were on the verge of obtaining their master's degrees.
Whether they could proceed to their Ph.D. relied heavily on their professors.
During such a crucial period, who wouldn't want to increase their visibility in front of their professors?
And moreover.
Kayla was right.
There's a saying that one field does not understand another.
Viola Thompson might be a leading figure in biology, with the ability to restore sight to the blind,
But could she really predict the weather?
"Then I'll go back with Kayla too." Tom stepped forward at this point.
"What about you?" Kayla Sullivan looked at Sasha, Ryder, and the others.
Sasha said, "We'll just stay on the island for the night and proceed tomorrow."
Kayla Sullivan still wore a gentle expression, "Life is precious, and I understand. We'll head off first."
With that, Kayla Sullivan turned to Tiffany Goleman and Tom, "Let's go."
Sasha wanted to say sothing, but she hesitated and eventually didn't speak up.
anwhile.
Viola Thompson had gotten in touch with the ferry company.
