Joli lowered his eyes to mask his emotion, but his fists clenched tighter beneath his sleeves. After what felt like
ages, he finally relaxed his grip as if he had run out of energy and decided to give in.
“Thank you, Dr. Xander. | appreciate everything you've done forover the years,” he said.
“Of course! What else would | do for my best student? Don’t you think you deserve special treatment?” Sophie
replied.
He didn’t respond. After all, he wasn’t good with words, and most of his classmates and teachers saw him as a
quiet and reserved person.
*Alright, you can leave now. Take your twith the thesis, and you don’t have to finish it by this month. Manage

Joli turned and left.
Sophie sat down and slowly sipped her coffee.
Yasmine approached her with a grin. “Aunt Sophie, you've really had a way of getting him to listen.”
Miranda and the others couldn't apply for a lab, and Joli refused to withdraw his application. As a result, they

Sebastian replied, “The faculty always favors those who achieve good academic results. Besides, Joll’s followed
all the proper procedures for his lab access application, so what can they do about it? What grounds do they
have to intervene?”
She sighed and rested her chin on her chubby hands. “How are we supposed to continue our research without a
lab?”
He replied, “There are a lot of unoccupied labs, but those labs don’t have the CPRT measurement device.”
If they could get the device, any lab would work.
Madison asked casually, “Is that device expensive?”
Miranda was taken aback by the question.
After a brief pause, Sebastian replied sarcastically, “Well, that’s certainly a... good question.”
He immediately pulled out his phone and did a quick search, “The best CPRT measurement device on the market
is the Everysto model from Dulcora. It also has a microscope but costs 1.26 million dollars.”
“1.26 million...” Madison thought momentarily before suggesting, “Why don’t we just buy one?”
Sebastian was perplexed and questioned the unexpected idea. In contrast, Miranda was surprised and thought it
was a brilliant suggestion.
Seeing his confused stare, Madison asked, “Why are you looking atlike that?”

Got it?”
She nodded. “Yes, and you don’t have to repeat that.”
“So, do you still think... we can afford it?” Sebastian asked.
“Not we, but me. Don’t worry, I've got this.” Madison smiled and patted her chest.
He wondered if she had misspoken or if something was wrong with his hearing. “Where are you getting all that
money?” He thought she was bragging.
“I don’t have it,” she admitted.
Sebastian's expression clearly said, “I knew you were joking.”
“But my dad does,” Madison continued.
He was flabbergasted.
She pulled out her phone and dialed a number. “Hey, Dad!
