Chapter 49’- Completion

Jake exclaimed in shock, “You’ve finished it? How is that possible?!”
Having graduated in the field of energy, he was well aware of the complexity involved in the work.
That’s why he didn’t find it odd when Isla said that Dr. South needed more time and hadn’t yet given him the solution.
How on earth could Keira have finished so quickly?
Keira narrowed her eyes. ”I’ll organize everything and send it to you later, and you’ll know. Jake, don’t forget what you promised me!”
After saying this, she entered Group One’s office.
As soon as she walked in, members of her group surrounded her.
Luca, being vigilant, glared at Jake. “Keira, did he belittle you again with Dr.
South?”
Se??ch ?ew?o?e?/o?g o? ?oo?l?
The rest of the members immediately chimed in.
“Miss Olsen, don’t take him seriously!”
“Exactly, being so competent at your age already makes you top-notch! Don’t compare yourself with Dr. South.
-You’re already amazing! You’re so young, yet you’re more impressive than anyone else here!”
Jalen came out of his office.
From the looks of it, he must have stayed over at the company again the night before.
He frowned and looked at Keira. “Don’t worry. I stayed up all night and figured out a rough solution to the problem. If we work extra time today, even if we can’t provide a complete solution, at least a suggestion is enough…
He had also sent a WhatsApp message to his cousin, explaining the situation in the R&D department.
Regarding Jake’s pressure on the department, Jalen knew that Lewis would support him!
Keira was touched by their kind words.
She smiled, “Thank you, but it’s not necessary. I’ve already finished it.”
Jalen waved his hand. “You don’t have to worry about this anymore. I’ll talk to…
What?”
His eyes widened in surprise. “You’ve finished?
The others also looked at her in disbelief, “Miss Olsen, what did you just say?
Am I hallucinating from fatigue?”
Luca laughed bitterly. “Keira, don’t joke around with us!”
Keira laughed. “I’m about to send an email and I’ll cc everyone.”
She walked into her office with her laptop.
The department members and Jalen stood there, looking at each other, still in disbelief.
It wasn’t until the sound of a new email pinged from someone’s computer that everyone returned to their desks and opened their email.
Sure enough, they saw an email sent by Keira.
Everyone immediately downloaded the attachments and opened them. The content left them stunned.
For a moment, the department went quiet.
Seeing everyone engrossed in reading the solution, Keira quietly left the office and headed to the rooftop.
With her work completed, she intended to meet Lewis to retrieve the book on neurology.
She hadn’t forgotten about making the medicine for old Mrs. Horton.
Rooftop, inside the office.
Lewis was reviewing some documents when Tom entered abruptly, “Boss, Miss
Olsen is here to see you.”
He paused, the pen leaving a trail on the paper.
At the small of his back, it felt like he could still feel her soft touch, which slowly turned into burning heat.
He moistened his lips, his voice deep. “Enter.”
As soon as Keira entered, she saw Lewis sitting quietly there. He didn’t lookup and said softly, “I know about the research and development department. It’s alright if you guys can’t find the solution. The company has a complete set of rules and regulations that will protect your legal rights. Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
Keira laughed. “I didn’t come here because of the R&D department’s issues. I came here because… I was thinking about you…”
Her voice trailed off, and a sudden itch in her throat made her pause.
Lewis’s hand shook, ruining a document that had just been printed.
His throat tightened a little. He slowly looked up and saw Keira clearing her throat before speaking again. “I was thinking about your book, the one from
the library.”
Lewis was speechless.
He took a deep breath but felt a little desolate deep down.
He casually picked up that book from his desk and handed it to Keira. When she took it, he said lightly, “Next time, don’t stop in the middle of your sentence.” Keira happily took the book, oblivious to his strange remark, and said casually, “Right, thank you.”
She then turned to leave.
Only after she had left the room did Lewis drop his gaze.
He laughed softly.
Interestingly, Keira hadn’t taken the kiss in the car to heart while he had been overthinking it for two days… He was overreacting.
What’s more, Keira already had a boyfriend.
Lewis regained his usual calm and composure.
Now that the R&D work was completed, Keira completely let go and spent the whole day researching Alzheimer’s disease.
As it approached clock-off time, the quiet office finally stirred.
The director of the R&D department and an angry Jake walked in.
Jalen had just finished verifying Keira’s solution and found no problems at all. He excitedly informed the director, “Our company really struck gold this time. Keira’s solution will be as good as Dr. South’s!
The director frowned, while Jake snorted. “Yeah, you’re right. They’re identical!”
At first, Jalen didn’t catch his meaning. “Haha, she’s as good as Dr. South…”
As he said this, he suddenly froze. “What do you mean?”
“I mean, she stole Dr. South’s solution!!”
After Jake finished speaking, he sneered at Keira. “In the afternoon, I received Dr South’s solution, and it’s almost identical to yours! I wondered how you seemed so composed, and it turns out you had this in mind! Did you think that because you sent your email earlier than Dr. South, the solution would be considered yours? Keira Olsen, you’re incredibly naive to think that by changing a few details we wouldn’t be able to tell! How dare you steal from Dr.
South?”
Jalen frowned. “There must be some misunderstanding here. Keira has been working in the company with us all these days. Some of the content was even completed by us…”
Even though this part only accounted for twenty percent of the entire solution. Upon hearing this, Jake immediately responded, “What kind of misunderstanding? The two solutions are identical. Do you mean to say that rather than Keira stealing from Dr. South, Dr. South stole from Keira?! Do you think that’s possible?”
One was a respected doctoral scholar, and the other was an undergraduate. It was clear who was more trustworthy.
Jalen was rendered speechless.
Keira frowned as she listened to their conversation.
It was unlikely Dr. South would have sent an email to Jake, so the only explanation was that…
Someone had forged her solution to seem as if it had come from Dr. South! Jake intended to use this opportunity to suppress her and her team. Was that it?
What a joke.
Keira said mildly, “Couldn’t there be a third possibility?”
