Chapter 438:
It was as if Yelena could hear her thoughts. Turning to Erica, Yelena calmly said, “When I said I didn’t mess around, that doesn’t mean I didn’t touch anything in there p>
With that, Yelena started walking toward the lab. “Let’s go. You wanted to know what I did, didn’t you p>
Corbett hesitated, momentarily speechless. Was Yelena just lucky, or did she really know what she was doing?
Either way, he decided it was best to check it out. If Yelena was messing around, now was the perfect opportunity to put her in her place.
Inside the lab, Yelena swiftly reset all the data back to its original state.
Corbett watched her with a sharp gaze. “Go on, show me,” he said flatly.
Seeing Yelena’s calm and confident demeanor, Corbett couldn’t shake the thought that she might truly know her way around this experiment.
Meanwhile, Erica watched Yelena with worry. She moved a little closer and whispered, “Are you sure about this p>
Her concern wasn’t just about the scolding—she was afraid Yelena might fail, and that would be a heavy blow to someone as exceptional as Yelena.
Yelena had always been the top of her class, her talent undeniable. For someone who had excelled so effortlessly, a single mistake usually felt like a crushing weight.
Yet, despite the intense scrutiny from both Corbett and Erica, Yelena remained unfazed. Her hands moved with precision, steady as a metronome.
Corbett clung to the hope that Yelena was bluffing. But the more time passed, the clearer it became—she truly knew the experiment inside and out, perhaps even better than he did. His eyes widened in shock, and for a moment, it felt like the air had been knocked out of him. Impossible. How could this be?
Though his face remained composed, internally, Corbett’s thoughts were a whirlwind of disbelief.
Erica, on the other hand, was also completely stunned. “So? Do you understand now?” Yelena asked calmly as she finished.

The equipment hummed quietly, but the preliminary data displayed no errors.
Corbett continued to stare, waiting for the final results. When they appeared, crystal clear and flawless, his heart sank—and then rose again, in awe.
He quickly jotted down the results, his initial attitude shifting from skepticism to admiration.
A genius! The girl standing before him wasn’t just brilliant—she was a force to be reckoned with!
“Since you’ve mastered this part of the experiment, Yelena, what about the others?” Corbett asked cautiously.
Truthfully, he hadn’t expected much.
But Yelena replied, her tone calm yet assured, “Of course, I can do those too p>
Corbett’s excitement bubbled to the surface.
“Let’s get started!” he said with enthusiasm.
And so, the trio—Yelena, Corbett, and Erica—spent the entire day immersed in the lab’s work.
This was exactly what Yelena had been hoping for. Her goal was to wrap things up quickly and get out.
Unaware of Yelena’s true intentions, Corbett was simply over the moon. He believed they had found someone brilliant enough to elevate their team to the highest level, someone who would make them envied by all.
A few days later, Roland made a rare visit to the lab. “Corbett p>
“Professor Hoffman!” Corbett froze as soon as he saw his teacher. What happened? Did something go wrong with the experiment? Was Roland here to confront him about it? His hands fidgeted nervously, rubbing against his clothes, but the sweat on his palms quickly left them sticky.
