Chapter 810
He had looked into it all those years ago. Aside from her genes, there was nothing that set her apart from anyone else. Five years had passed and she was still doing just fine.
“No.”
Her insomnia was under control and as for the rest… if there were no problems yet, there was no point in worrying about them.
“If you don’t have anyone to go to Solenia with,” Newell said, a little hesitant, “I could…”
“No need,” Charlotte answered, her tone completely serious. “I have a boyfriend.”
Newell said, “Want a medal or something?”
Charlotte shot right back, “Do you have one?”
Newell had nothing to say to that.
“That’s it, I’m hanging up.”
She didn’t wait for him to reply. The call ended abruptly.
Newell’s hand paused midair, then he let out a quiet, helpless laugh. It felt kind of nice, being needed by her, even just a little.
…
After hanging up, Charlotte flopped onto her bed, still a little dazed. Her phone kept buzzing with social media notifications. In the group chat, Shirley was already venting.
Shirley: [I swear, I’m going to die. None of this is sticking in my brain! I get every single word, but put them together and it makes zero sense. Maybe the book is just messed up?]
Andrew: [Or maybe it’s your brain that’s messed up?]
Parrish: [LMAO!]
Stella: [Is it really that hard? Why don’t you just ask Charlotte?]
Shirley: [Charlotte’s busy helping Patricia find medicine. I don’t want to bother her.]
No sooner had she sent the message than Charlotte appeared in the chat. She casually dropped a line: [Give me two minutes.]
Before anyone could even react, several folders popped up on the screen. Physics books?
Shirley nervously bit her finger and opened one of the files. The second she saw how it was organized, she let out a gasp and almost jumped out of her chair.
No way.
Was this really Dr. Cole’s latest research?
Dr. Cole was a legend in physics. Even the famous Mr. Lane from Cabinda University had to call her “teacher in front of everyone. Every year, her hew books cold out the second they hit the shelves. And this one wasn’t even out yet.

Shirley: [Charlotte, you’re amazing! You actually got Dr. Cole’s new book!!!]
Ever since she’d started college and
gotten into physics, Shirley had practically worshipped Dr. Cole. There weren’t many true masters. in the field, and female ones were even,
more rare Before !!
Cole came
along, it was pretty much all men at the top. She had really carved out a place for women.
Charlotte: [Just got lucky.]
Shirley: [Mr. Lane said if I work hard enough, one day he’ll introduce me to Dr. Cole.]
Even just thinking about it, Shirley felt ridiculously excited.
Charlotte: [Hmm…]
Honestly, it wasn’t that hard, she thought to herself.
Charlotte: These books have her latest theories and research. Read
them carefully. If you get stuck ask
me. you understand all this, it be a huge help for your competion.]
Shirley: [Got it! Charlotte, if I ever meet Dr. Cole in person, I’m bringing you with me.]
If Charlotte hadn’t chosen traditional medicine, she would have been Mr. Lane’s student by now. With her physics skills, Shirley had no doubt she’d be incredible. Charlotte blinked at the screen. [Ok.]
