"Okay!" Rhea agreed without batting an eye.
The man was delighted. With a slight nod, his gaze softened a lot. "Rhea, do you know what I like most about you?"
"I wouldn't dare to assume," she replied lightly.
"I like how heartless and ruthless you are, unlike Mike Corden! People who are destined for great things shouldn't be so weak. I chose you among many outstanding graduates for how cold-hearted you are."
Rhea's face remained unmoved. "You're right, Boss."
"How is R7 doing?" He suddenly asked, changing the subject.
"The first trial of R7 is obedient and easy. Otherwise, we wouldn't be able to transfer to the new base so quickly. Boss, rest assured that I have everything under control," she said confidently.
Taking a deep look at her, the man lightly tapped the back of his hand with his fingers. "I remember you mentioning that the effect on R7 was unpredictable. How did you manage to get it under control?"
"It's not out of control. I'm just unsure of the full extent of the effects. So far, the effect is still very satisfactory. Everything is going according to our expectations. You're seeing it for yourself as well," she replied.
"Very good! However, Mike is right. R10 is our priority, and you are not making progress. Rhea, time is running out, and so is my patience!"
His tone was calm and non-threatening, but Rhea still shuddered. She lowered her head and said, "I understand. I'm picking up the pace. I will succeed soon.
“It was delayed because of the matter at the experimental base before, but seeing that we're moving to a new base tomorrow, I believe I will successfully develop R10!" She sounded affirmative, almost like she was trying to cheer herself up.
