The woman ignored his anger, and her lips' corners curved upward slightly. "I don't know you, but we will once we talk."
Austin did not know what to say.
‘The world has changed! When did women become so bold and crazy?!’
Before this, there was Lily, who was always there to condemn him everywhere he went. Now, this woman also happened to be from the research institute.
‘Are all the women from this institute insane?!’
At that moment, Austin suddenly remembered that she was a part of the research institute and that Thompson said she was working on another project. With that in mind, he toned down his temper.
"All right, but this isn't a suitable place to chat. Let's go somewhere else." Austin glanced around and suggested, "There's a nearby—"
"Here is just fine," she interrupted him. "Let's just talk here."
"Here?" Austin looked around. They were close to the laboratory building, and although it was still early, it was almost time for work. There would be people coming in and out from it.
When he turned around, the woman was leaning against his car, looking at him. "Yes, here! We'll talk in broad daylight, in an open space. That way, we can leave as soon as we're done and not waste anyone's time."
Austin stayed silent.
‘This woman is so straightforward!’
