Liam looked through the transparent panel.
their discussion
Chloe was wearing a lab coat, conducting an experiment. A man stood beside her, a head taller. They seemed to be discussing experimental data. Without a professor present, appeared very intimate.
Liam couldn’t hear the specific content–the lab’s soundproofing was good–but he could intermittently catch the sound of laughter.
From this angle, Chloe was smiling brightly, and the man looked at her with clear adoration.
Liam now didn’t dare to open the door. He was terrified of a bad outcome. He could feel his chest tightening and his head spinning.
He even felt a bit unsteady on his feet. A slight backward stagger nearly made him fall. His assistant, alarmed, quickly called for the doctors waiting at the institute’s entrance.
“An oxygen machine! Is there an oxygen machine?!”
“Hurry! Mr. Walker needs emergency care!”
The noise from the corridor seemed to disturb Chloe in the precision lab. She instinctively turned to
look.
Liam forcefully pushed away those trying to support him, snatched the keycard hanging from the dean’s neck, and beep–swiped open the lab door.
“Ch… loe…”
Julian was also startled by the sudden intrusion and instinctively moved to shield Chloe.
Chloe peered out from behind him to see who it was.
The scene, from Liam’s perspective, made the words he wanted to say catch in his throat.

only that Julian leave.
As the heavy lab door clicked shut, only Liam and Chloe remained inside.
Chloe no longer looked directly at him, turning instead to readjust the microscope on the table.
Liam’s anger surged. With a loud crash, he swept the instruments and materials from the lab table
onto the floor.
Liam’s actions clearly shocked Chloe. She went from initial surprise to gradual silence.
Chloe let her hands fall to her sides, slowly crouched down, and began gathering the samples from today’s experiment. She picked up the microscope she had been using and placed it back on the table. The lens was shattered; the instrument she usually cherished so much was now completely
broken.
Still dissatisfied with Chloe’s reaction, Liam grabbed her right hand and pulled her close.
[Answer me!]
The phone screen glared brightly.
A wave of intense irritation washed over Chloe. She pushed him away with both hands, breaking
free from his grasp with a force that surprised even herself.
“Liam Walker! I’m not mute! And neither are you!”
“Your cure is back in Crestwood–Isabella Rossi! I’ve already made room for you both! Stop bothering me!” Here, Chloe suddenly realized something.
She stubbornly bit her lower lip.
“That thesis! I wrote it myself! I reclaimed it on my own merit! You have no right to interfere! Do you think you can influence everything with your so–called power and connections?!”
“If you have the guts, make Isabella write her own papers and win her own awards!”
“I am not her stepping stone to climb the social ladder!”
Chloe was agitated, her chest heaving violently.
But Liam was in obvious pain, unable to straighten up, cold sweat breaking out. He tried to support
himself on the edge of the lab table but still fell to the floor with a thud.
