Arabella had just stepped out of the classroom when she spotted a familiar figure in the distance. What was he doing here?
Mya's gaze met Romeo's. Just a second ago, she had been hugging Arabella. The next second, she let go, stuttering, "I brought your girlfriend over. Bye."
Arabella watched her make a hasty exit, almost tripping over in the process. She couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Arabella, "What brought you here?"
"You should tell me why haven't you been responding to me these past few days?" Romeo asked, ignoring the stares from several girls around him. He touched Arabella's face, "You forget all about me when you're doing your experiments."
Arabella thought about it. Recently, she had been busy with her research. Either she hadn't replied to messages in time, or she hadn't picked up calls, or she had even reduced her nightly video chats.
"Come on, I have something to show you." Romeo took her hand and led her away from the campus.
Soon, they arrived at Romeo's recent place.
Arabella followed him up to the third floor, where she was surprised that he had transformed the entire floor into a giant transparent lab.
The lab was equipped with medical devices purchased by Grandpa Beck at a hefty price and had various advanced equipment.
Some of the equipment was even more advanced than what Grandpa Beck had bought.
"What is this?"
"Now you'll come over more often," Romeo said, pulling her into the lab for a tour. "These equipment are for medication research, analysis, production, etc., and everything here is top-notch."
Arabella's eyes swept over the medical equipment. Her heart was pounding.
If Grandpa Beck were here, they could start experimenting right away.
Romeo noticed that Arabella's eyes were sparkling. She seemed more excited than when she saw him. He couldn't help but feel a pang of jealousy.
Were these cold, unfeeling machines that great? Better than him?
