Masked In Nobility: Secrets Of Mrs. Chavez

Chapter 272



James hung up, looked at his granddaughter, and said in a gentle voice, “Come on, Yvette. Let’s go to see my physics lab.”

Yvette nodded slightly and said, “I’m going back to Seacrity soon, so you don’t have to open a milkshake shop for me.”

James waved his hand and thought it was no big deal. “It doesn’t matter. If you come to Betrico close it. Take it easy. Whatever I give you, just take it.”

I’ll have

open. If not, I’ll

Speaking of which, James remembered something. He added, “I’ve bought you a villa at Skyland yesterday. It’s small and only cost 100 million dollars. I’ll hand you the keys this afternoon, and you should check it out. Everything’s designed and furnished. You can just move in. You’re going to get married to Jeremiah, and we definitely can’t let him take advantage of you, understand?”

Yvette thought, ‘Does a few kisses count as taking advantage?‘

James continued to speak earnestly to Yvette, “Luckily, Jeremiah doesn’t play the field like his grandpa. Otherwise, I would never let you marry him.”

The grudges between James and Jase in recent years stemmed from Mary, the president of the National Performing Arts Association, mentioned by Michael.

Yvette watched James, who had been talking beside her, and softly said, “Thank you.”

James didn’t hear clearly and turned his head to ask her, “What did you say, Yvette?”

Yvette paused, relaxed and calm, shaking her head. “Nothing.”

The national physics lab used the most advanced iris recognition in the world and five–tier security systems. As soon as the alarm was triggered, the army stationed there would arrive in no more than three minutes.

If the intruder was unlucky, the Navy, Army, and Air Force would all be there and send him to prison.

James and Yvette changed into white lab coats that were waterproof, electricity–proof, and radiation–proof.

The lab coat was made from material that’s difficult to cut even with a knife, and each piece cost tens of thousands of dollars.

That meant that even if there were no special projects in the physics lab, lab coats cost millions of dollars, not to mention other basic expenses. What a money–burning lab!

James and Yvette had already passed through four levels of security checks before entering the most ordinary area of the lab.

As the door opened, the researchers in the outer area all stopped their experiments.

This elevator was exclusive to James, so others couldn’t use it.

James led the way, and Yvette followed.

Everyone was surprised to see a girl following James because they had never seen James bring anyone in before, except for his grandson.

They wondered why James brought a girl into the lab and speculated that the physics lab might be getting a new member.

With every new researcher that came in, the pressure on the low-level staffers increased because the risk of being fired at the end of the month improved.

The researchers in the physics lab were divided into ordinary and core. Needless to say, core talents were physics prodigies picked from a million, or even ten million.

Ordinary researchers were very talented too, but still not enough. They were all on thin ice, never daring to let their guard down even for a moment.

They used this pressure to stimulate themselves, while others felt a little resentment, which was normal because everyone had been through this.

As the top talent in the nation’s physics field, all researchers were fully aware of the trials they faced. After all, people tend to become lazy without pressure. That’s why James was always strict during evaluations.

All researchers stood respectfully, watched as James approached, and took the initiative to greet him.

“Hello, Mr. Owens.”

“Morning, Mr. Owens.”

“Hi, Mr. Owens.”

Yvette walked alongside James, with her hands in her pockets, at a relaxed pace.

As James and Yvette got closer, everyone could finally see the girl’s face clearly, and they gasped.

Researchers thought, ‘She’s so pretty and looked more like a glamorous movie star than a researcher. Wasn’t she a bit too bold? Come on, next to her was Mr. Owens.’

James was very kind, nodded to everyone, and turned slightly to explain to Yvette, “Yvette, this is the outer area of the lab

They are the top students from each region every year and usually do some basic experiments. When you have time, come by to give them a lecture.”

James didn’t find anything wrong with what he said, but some proud top students couldn’t accept. They thought, ‘Mr. Owens‘ must be kidding. She was just a girl younger than us. What qualifications does she have to teach us?‘

Yvette glanced around at the researchers who were not convinced, her eyes stopping on someone for a moment and looking away.

Her expression was indifferent as she raised an eyebrow. Her stunningly beautiful eyes were calm. She thought, ‘Not convinced? Well, guess what? I’m good at dealing with rebellion. You all have to know what I’m capable of.

“After an hour, you can ask me any questions you have.” Her voice was devoid of warmth, making the atmosphere of the already chilly lab even colder.

James heard Yvette’s words and glanced at the researchers, who were desperately trying to conceal their emotions. Only then did he realize that these geniuses couldn’t accept a girl who appeared out of nowhere.

James blamed himself for being messy. He spoke that because he knew Yvette was Siren. However, he forgot that the others didn’t know. So it was understandable that they were bitter.

James wanted to clarify Yvette’s identity because everyone in the physics lab greatly respected Siren. If they knew that Yvette was Siren, they wouldn’t be so arrogant.

Yvette tilted her head and gave James a look, prompting him to withdraw his words.

James thought, Yvette wanted to stay low–key. It’s really hard to deal with. But she could make these researchers learn that there’s always someone better than them. It’s good. After all, complacency will make them step back, and facing some challenges can be quite beneficial

Thinking about this, James decided to let Yvette do anything she wanted. “It’s not a bad thing for them to take a hit,” he thought, choosing to stand by.

These top students had no idea that James had already left them to their fate and were all angry, thinking, ‘Why are you so arrogant? What a cocky attitude you have! You even let us ask anything. Do you think you’re an encyclopedia or Einstein?‘

A boy who had been in the outer lab for a while, wearing glasses, looked at Yvette and said, “Hey, even though I’m not sure why Mr. Owens asked you to be our teacher, you must be quite talented. But do you think you’re too confident? Are you certain you can handle all questions?”

Another competent girl took off her lab goggles and said with a good attitude, “Spencer is right, miss. I believe you’re not boasting. But honestly, we find it hard to trust. Even our core researchers won’t dare to make such bold claims.”Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

“Yeah, we don’t believe her either. Mr. Owens, are you going to recruit the little girl into the lab?”

“Is she one of the core talents?”

“The assessments at labs everywhere have already ended this year, so how could she still be joining?”

Since Yvette came in, only one boy was standing among the crowd and was silent and shocked.
