After assisting Amelia in resolving the issues in Jedayton, Donald returned to the mansion to find Jennifer already asleep.
Initially, Donald planned to quietly enter the bedroom for a good night's rest. However, as he approached the bedroom door, he noticed a white figure at the end of the corridor.
Donald's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that the mansion is haunted?
Just as Donald was preparing to confront the ghost, the figure stealthily glanced around and then signaled for Donald to approach.
"Geraldine, why are you dressed like that?" Donald asked.
Geraldine had always dressed conservatively as a guest in the mansion, even wearing cartoon-themed pajamas.
However, on that day, she wore white lace-trimmed pajamas that were quite eye-catching. Additionally, she had a face mask on, which was startling at first glance.
"I wanted to inform you that the phone you requested us to research is ready. The prototype is in my room. Why don't you come in and take a look?" she replied.
"If the prototype is ready, we can examine it in the living room. Why should we go to your bedroom?"
After Donald finished speaking, he turned to leave. Geraldine quickly stepped forward to stop him. "How can I go to the living room dressed like this? Besides, this new phone model is practically a military-grade secret. Can't you show me a little respect?"
Exhausted both physically and mentally, Donald had no idea what Geraldine was up to.
Regardless, he didn't feel like going downstairs, so he reluctantly followed Geraldine into the bedroom.
Donald had entrusted the important task of manufacturing phones to Geraldine, primarily out of trust rather than her technical abilities.
After all, Geraldine came from a prominent business family background. In other words, she wasn't a tech expert.
When it came to manufacturing phones, she couldn't provide much guidance to the researchers. At most, she could offer some input during decision-making.
Therefore, Donald was quite surprised that the phone could be produced so quickly this time. Could it possibly be an unfinished product?
