Both of them went into the console room.
Miranda didn’t beat around the bush and got straight to the point. “Dr. Young, | think there's an issue with your
research approach.”
She didn’t wait for Christine to respond and handed her a document before continuing, “Over t weekend, the
three of us reviewed the current progress for this research project.
“Besides that, we also went over the research background, experimental methods, specific data, and the
conclusions from the previous two phases. In the end, we realized...
Miranda looked up and met Christine’s gaze. “The third phase of the experiment might not be due to issues with
the phase itself, but rather... the whole project may have been off track from the beginning.”
The three of them had discovered the problem together, but Madison and Sebastian were too hesitant to speak
up. So, Miranda had to be the one to deliver the bad news.
Although Christine had fallen silent, she had no intention to stop there.
Miranda pressed on, “I understand your tenacious and persistent personality. If you choose not to do something,

Christine sighed deeply. “I had wondered how long it would take for you all to notice the issue. A semester? A
year or two? But | didn’t expect you three to catch it this quickly.”
There was a mix of emotion and surprise in her eyes, but mostly it was pride in her students. Not only had they
discovered the problem, but they had also backed it up with evidence.
She patted the document Miranda handed to her, but she didn’t open it. Christine already knew that the data
and conclusions inside were facts. They were indisputable.
Miranda was taken aback. “Dr. Young, you...”
“Did you really think | didn’t know the research approach was off?” Christine sighed.
She might not have noticed at first, but the problems becmore apparent as the research progressed. With
her professional expertise, how could she have missed it?
“Then why didn’t you....” Miranda hesitated.
“Are y
you going to ask why I didn’t stop it in time?”
Miranda nodded as Christine’s gaze dimmed. “I'm not a good supervisor.

addition, the blow of Miranda giving up her combined Master's and Doctorate program further crushed her spirit.
Christine had fallen ill and was bedridden for eight months before she started to recover. Even then, she still
couldn't fully immerse herself in her academic work.
Nonetheless, the research project couldnt be put on hold. “This directly affects whether the stud graduate on
