Josie was feeling anxious when just then she heard Adeline clap her hands and shout, “Joseph is right. Although we are very likely to lose, we must not concede defeat without a fight.

“As a team that has defeated David’s group once, we cannot allow others to think that our victory was merely a stroke of luck.

“Even if we lose, we must lose beautifully, so they understand we are not easy to defeat.

“So, for this paper, does everyone have the confidence to do their best?”

“Yes!” Ian shouted, “If we are to do it, we must do it to the highest standard.”

Tripp was also passionate. “Do your utmost to be your best, and leave no regrets!”

“Don’t worry, everyone. Once our formal employment procedures are completed, we will all have interned at the research institute. In order to stay, we must give our utmost effort.” Adeline gave everyone a smile.

The lethargy from just moments ago was instantly replaced by tension, and everyone became busy.

Josie was taken aback for a moment, beginning to understand the dynamics of Joseph’s team.

These two truly were a natural pair. Though Josephe was bad at comforting, Adeline knew how to turn that around.

When they worked together, the result was indeed greater than the sum of their parts.

Looking at these individuals, who suddenly seemed bursting with energy, Josie could sense a

rebound from rock bottom.

It was just that Josie had not expected the rebound to be so forceful, so much so that she nearly couldn’t keep up with its rhythm.

At 8:00 p.m., the first–phase research paper–originally scheduled for completion three days later–was presented in its final form after multiple rounds of revision.

Josie, exhausted and weak, said, “I’ll go see the professor tonight. If there are no issues, we can submit it to the medical authority tomorrow. What do you think?”

“We’d better do it as soon as possible. Their patent application will not be approved so quickly. Publishing our paper first is a good thing!” Joseph yawned.

Then, he asked, “What about the preface by Mr. Wilcourt?”

He looked troubled, mainly because Jeremy was also busy. As an intern, he felt it was inappropriate to urge Jeremy.

Josie was about to speak when her phone rang inside her bag.

It was Sean.

She answered the phone. “Sean?”

Sean’s voice was gentle. “Come downstairs. I’m outside. Professor Wilcourt said the preface to your thesis is already written.

“She’ll have some time this evening and can help you with some revisions to your thesis.”

Josie felt a bit flustered as she listened. “Alright, I’ll come down right away.”

She was about to hang up when Sean’s voice sounded again. “If Joseph is there, bring him along. Jeremy wants to see him.”

“Alright!” Although the reason Jeremy wished to meet Joseph at this time is unclear, it was a good thing for Joseph and the team.

Upon learning that Jeremy wished to meet him, Joseph became excited as well.

Without bothering to ask too many questions, he got into Sean’s car together with Josie.

At the Reedshaw family.

Jeremy looked a bit unwell, as if he had not slept for several days.

Jeremy looked at Joseph and said, “I apologize. I’ve been spending long hours in the lab on experiments these past few days and haven’t had a chance to ask you.

“How is your thesis coming along?”

Joseph took out his thesis somewhat nervously. “I have just finished writing it and have not yet had the chance to send it to you.”

“Alright, come in. Josie, you, too. Your professor is waiting for you in the study!” Jeremy led the way, and the group entered the study.

Josie was relatively composed, having stayed at the Reedshaw family during the Christmas.

In contrast, Joseph found it difficult to remain calm since the Reedshaw family was simply too luxurious.

He thought, ‘So that’s what an established family of Aloville is like. This is undoubtedly an

He swallowed nervously, fearing that his conduct might lack propriety and that his thesis might not meet professional standards.

In short, he felt unworthy of being inside the Reedshaw family.

Scan walked alongside Josie and asked, “I heard that Mr. Longley agreed to write the preface for your thesis?”

Josie smiled, her lips curving. “Professor Longley is so kind. He actually agreed. I was worried that my thesis might not be worthy of his preface!”

“You deserve it.” Sean chuckled softly. “You are excellent!”

Joseph looked up at Sean and thought, ‘He really knows how to charm her.

‘However, it is truly remarkable that Mr. Longley is willing to write a preface for Josie. This is highly enviable, and she is indeed very fortunate.

However, reflecting on everything she had been through, and the more than half a year they had spent together, Joseph felt that she deserved it.

It was no wonder that Sean treated her differently.
