Charming Lady Hard to Chase After Being Dumped novel Chapter 860

Nora:

When she saw Oscar really opening up her Internet browser and keying in the search term, she asked in surprise, "Haven't you seen one before?"

There were indeed news reports about her in the States, but she and Justin had deleted them from the Internet after each incident—after all, she didn't want to reveal her face. If one checked the news in time, they might still be able to catch a photo of her, but now...

"Why aren't there any pictures?"

Oscar was surprised. "I heard that she trended on social media and was even in a tormented relationship with the richest man in America! I also heard that Anti has two children but I don't know if it's true or not."

Nora:

While they were chatting, Epson had completely forgotten the crisis that would come that night. Dejected and dispirited, he waved off the students around him and said, "Let's all just go back for now!"

The time...

Nora checked the time—it was exactly one o'clock in the morning.

She stopped everyone and said, "We are in a time of crisis right now. If we split up at this time, we'll be in even more danger. I think it's better that we stay in the lab. This way, if something happens, at least we can work together..."

Barbarian might be powerful but surely even he couldn't attack all thirty-odd students in the lab, right?!

But as soon as she said that, Epson took his anger out on her. He snapped, "Murderer? What murderer?! The SWAT team is just trying to scare us! I told you, there is no murderer at all! You just want to stay here to laugh at me, right?"

Nora:"?"

His reaction frightened Oscar and she hid by the side. The rest of the students looked at Nora.

Nora lowered her eyes. "Professor Epson, have you heard of a medical condition known as persecutory delusion? You seem to be suffering from it. Do you need me to contact a doctor for you?"

Epson:"!"

That woman didn't even need to use swear words when she insulted someone!

He pointed at Nora furiously and continued ranting. "Do you think I've lost to Anti just because my experiment was unsuccessful? If nothing else, she didn't even try! When you look at it that way, I'm still better than her!"

Nora:

She ignored the lunatic and looked at the students instead. She said, "It's very cold outside right now and the police have already closed entry to the dorms a long time ago. Even if you leave, there's nowhere for you to go. On the contrary, it's safer here and the police have also stepped up security measures around the laboratory building. In my opinion, everyone should stay here until daybreak! But of course, all of you have the

freedom to choose what you want to do."

Nora's voice was filled with sarcasm when she mentioned "freedom".

Everyone looked at one another. In the end, Oscar took the lead and walked over to Nora. She said, "I... I'm staying."

The rest were divided into two factions at once. Some approved of staying there for the time being but gave very grandiose reasons for their decision, of course.

"Professor, our dorm has already closed, so we can't go in now anyway. I don't want to disturb the dorm

supervisor, so I'll just stay! I'll just go back at five o'clock."

"Yeah, that's right. I live relatively far away, Professor, so I won't be going back, either."

There were also some who wanted to leave.

"Hah, you are all cowards who allowed that woman to scare you! Professor Epson, I'll go. I'm going back to the dorm now. Isn't it more comfortable to go back and sleep on a comfy bed instead?"

Everyone quickly split into two factions. However, only two male students left with Professor Epson in the end.

Epson looked at his favorite students and then at the rest. He snorted and said, "What a bunch of cowards! How are people like you going to create miracles for the pharmaceutical industry? You don't even have the courage to go back to your rooms! You're not suitable for carrying out research with me at all!"

After scolding them, Epson sneered. "Let's go!"

Okay.¹

The two students followed Epson. One even said, "Professor, we'll walk you back to the staff dormitory before we go back!"

"Good going!"

After the three men's voices gradually faded into the distance, Nora and the rest of the students each found a comfortable spot in the laboratory, planning to leave once dawn broke.

Epson and the two students entered the elevator.

Because of the failed experiment, Epson was pulling a long face and had a very serious expression. He stared straight ahead of him, his eyes behind his glasses full of anger and embarrassment.
