Favian’s fierce heartbeat gradually subsided.
He swallowed and looked at Laura irritably. “Am I a three-year-old?”
Laura calmly handed him the fork and said helplessly, “Uncle Favian, Mommy Winnie said the injured is a baby no matter how old he is. You had a nightmare and need to be comforted, so you’re also a baby. I can’t finish my pasta. You can share
it with me.”
Then she ran out of his room.
Favian came back to his senses. He put on his glasses and looked at the pasta, speechless.
He was saved from his nightmare by Laura’s pasta.
He bent down to eat it, but when he thought of something, he walked out of the room with the pasta.
Laura was sitting at the dining table, absorbed in watching TV.
Favian stopped.
The show was an extremely childish cartoon that Favian couldn’t stand.
However, Laura huddled in her chair, watching it cross-legged and giggling from time to time.
Favian was stunned.
It seemed to be the first time that his television had been turned on.
After all, he had bought his own house since he became an adult. No one had ever lived there before.
For the first time, someone offered to make him a midnight snack.
Also, for the first time, there was a sense of life at home.
Favian sat across from Laura.
Laura didn’t even look at him. She watched the cartoon happily. “Do you like to watch Paw Patrol, Uncle Favian?”
Favian didn’t want to raise his head. “No.”
Laura stared straight at the television and said, “Let’s wait in line. You can watch TV after I finish.”
Favian said, “I won’t watch it.”
Only then did Laura look at him. She grinned, “You are so kind! Thank you for giving me the chance!”
Favian was speechless by it.
He wondered, ‘There’s nothing to be thankful for.”

He buried his head in the pasta, took a bite, and was slightly stunned.
He said in his heart, ‘It’s so delicious.”
After a while, he finished it and looked at Laura in surprise.
He wondered, ‘She has a talent for cooking.’
Laura also finished hers. However, she still couldn’t take her eyes off the TV. “Put it there, Uncle Favian. I’ll wash the
dishes.”
With that, she got off her chair while staring at the television. Suddenly, she fell to the ground!
She screamed, “Ouch!”
But the next moment, a hand suddenly wrapped around her.
Laura looked up in surprise and met Favian’s cold eyes.
Favian was obviously unhappy. “Do you lose your soul when watching TV? You aren’t allowed to watch it anymore.”
Laura frowned and pouted. “Why did you say the same words as Mommy Winnie?”
Winnie didn’t want her to watch TV either.
Favian snorted and took the plate from her hand. “Brush your teeth, go to the restroom, and sleep.”
Laura was stunned, and then she saw him walking to the kitchen naturally to wash the dishes.
She felt Favian seemed to be cold but warm sometimes.

Laura got off the chair and gathered her courage to grab the corner of Favian’s clothes. “Uncle Favian, could I live in your room? I can sleep on the sofa. Some bad people came to arrest me today. I’m afraid that I won’t fall asleep or have a nightmare. I promise I won’t disturb you. I just wanna be accompanied.”
Favian paused and glanced at her indifferently. “No. Don’t you usually live alone?”
Laura lowered her eyes in frustration. “I’ve been sleeping in Mommy Winnie’s arms recently. I’m used to it. Sorry for disturbing you, Uncle Favian.”
Favian frowned and looked at her turn away.
He suddenly felt a little annoyed. “I see. You sleep in the bed, and I sleep on the sofa.”
Laura was overjoyed and nodded politely. “Thank you, Uncle Favian. But I’m a kid. The sofa is enough for me.”
Favian put the plates away and said indifferently, “Don’t refute.”
Laura still wanted to refuse. “No…”
Favian turned his head angrily and asked, “Are you afraid of your homeroom teacher?”

She hesitated. “A little.”
Favian asked, “How about your head teacher?”
Laura nodded obediently, “Yes.”
Favian then asked, “What about the principal?”
Laura shivered immediately and nodded. “Very much!”
With his hands on the basin, Favian raised his eyebrows. “Laura, why don’t you listen to me since you’re afraid of me?”
Laura was confused. “But you aren’t the principal.”
Favian raised his eyebrows, fastened the top button of his shirt, and looked down at her. “Look carefully.”
Laura frowned and looked at his facial features carefully, gradually showing a strange expression.
Shock, astonishment, and disbelief mixed together. Laura almost broke her voice. “You’re the principal!”
Laura saw the principal for a short time, only once on Monday. When she met him on the way, he was always accompanied by several adults.
She never paid much attention to the principal’s appearance.
She only felt that he was good-looking, with long legs and a tall figure.
She didn’t expect Favian to be the principal.
Favian appreciated her collapsed expression, and there was a hint of joy in his eyes. “Yes, I am the principal.”
Laura suddenly pouted and wanted to cry. “Why didn’t you tell me earlier? Then I wouldn’t have come to your house!”
Favian was stunned, and his joy gradually disappeared. “Why should I?”
Laura sobbed, “You are the principal. I’m afraid of you the most. I don’t want to live with you! You’re more terrible than
nightmares!”
Favian was speechless.
In the Luceras Hospital, Carol sat in the corridor with a gloomy face, feeling the pain from her wounds.
She was annoyed. “Have they been back?”
The bodyguard answered with embarrassment, “Mr. Joshua Yale forced them to resign, so they won’t come back.”
Stunned, Carol laughed, “Well, I’m really old. They dare to disobey me so much for a child.”
But she was not in a hurry. “Ask people in the laboratory to find my favorite experimental subjects and let them enroll at Luceras for comparison. Don’t catch Laura for now.”

The bodyguard didn’t quite understand it. “Could you please make it as specific as possible?”
Carol said slowly, “Go find a few children in my project team, Lilian’s Experiment. And arrange them in the classes of Laura, Xander, Everett, and Jasper. If the children can equal or surpass them, this project will be a success.”
The bodyguard nodded. “Yes. I’ll inform him.”
Carol stood by the window, looking at the night scene.

She studied the development of children’s intelligence, mainly to give them more possibilities for development, such as photographic memory and space-extension thinking.
At first, Carol couldn’t find a suitable candidate. Parents who met the standards were unwilling to let their children become experimental subjects, so she had no choice but to give birth to children on her own.
Every winter and summer vacation, she would send Robert and others to the laboratory for research to develop their
brains.
In a few years, she gave birth to Lilian with average intelligence.
Lilian was not qualified to enter the laboratory with her IQ, so Carol didn’t push her hard.
However, Carol found Lilian very interesting.
Lilian seemed to be working desperately to please Carol and make everyone in the family pay attention to her.
Therefore, when her siblings were sent to the laboratory for research, Lilian was told by Carol that they went on a trip
without taking her.
If Lilian wanted to travel together, she had to study hard.
Lilian believed it.
Although Winnie told Lilian the truth later that they were being studied instead of traveling, Lilian was skeptical about it and questioned Carol.
Carol then showed fake photos and videos to Lilian. “They lied to you. They just look down on you.”
