Charlotte: "???"
Good lord, this woman was thick-skinned.
Her sweet Stella was absolutely no match for someone this shameless.
Just as the words left Veronica's mouth, Roger returned with the files.
"Move."
Seeing where Veronica was sitting, he frowned in displeasure, his voice dropping low. "I'm sitting here to assist Charlotte."
Assist?
Who was assisting whom?
Veronica thought she misheard him. Unwilling to let go of an opportunity to look good, she said confidently, "It's fine, Dr. Gates! I can teach Charlotte from here."
"You'll teach her?"
Hearing this, Roger paused his shuffling of the files. A deadly serious look crossed his handsome face, and he said coldly, "No one here is qualified to teach her."
"W-what do you mean?"
Veronica pursed her lips, utterly confused.
Charlotte finally finished scanning the report in her hands.
Having sped through the documents, she finally had a moment to stand up. Her gaze swept over the room, and she offered a polite smile. "Hello, everyone. Let me introduce myself. I am Charlotte, also known as... Asclepius."
Asclepius?!
As soon as the words left her mouth, every single person in the room snapped their heads up, staring at her in unison.
Did they hear that right?
Dr. Gates's sister just claimed her alias was Asclepius?
In the forensic world, the name Asclepius of the International Forensic Association was legendary. Everyone knew the name.
Who would have thought the absolute titan of their field was standing right here?
Wait!
They needed to calm down!
No!
What they needed right now was an oxygen tank!
Veronica was completely paralyzed by the name 'Asclepius.' She stood frozen in place, staring at Charlotte in absolute disbelief.
Her mind was looping the introduction over and over: 'Alias... Asclepius.'
Asclepius.
The ultimate god-tier figure of the forensic world.
Forget Dr. Gates; even the highest leaders of the International Forensic Association had to bow their heads when they met her.
