Angeline had rented out their house. Although the place was small and its carnings were small, it covered some of Henrietta’s living expenses.
Henrietta was thrilled that she had transferred schools, She didn’t feel reluctant about leaving her previous institution. Instead, she felt a little relieved.
Angeline sent her sister to Cloudsville High School’s dormitory. She stopped worrying when she met Henrietta’s nice roommates.
Her period was delayed for a month, so Angeline bought a pregnancy test kit on the way back from Cloudsville High School’s dormitory.
It was her first time using the kit. After examining it for a long time, Angeline finally figured
out how to use it.
Angeline’s face paled five minutes later when she saw two red lines on the pregnancy test
stick. Her mind went blank.
How could she fall pregnant on the first try?
Angeline didn’t believe it, so she went out and bought a few more pregnancy test kits. Alas,
the results were the same.
She stared at the row of positive pregnancy test sticks on the sink. Angeline leaned against the sink and bit her finger.
Sean was still overseas.
Even if he was in Lonla, what difference could telling him about it make?
The baby had to be aborted.
Just then, the phone vibrated.
Angeline answered the call when she realized Marion was calling her.
“Hello, Marion…”
“Angeline, someone new has joined our research team! James told me to call you over. He would like to introduce that person to you.”
Marion had known James since she was young, so she addressed him casually.
“Alright. I’m on my way.
After hanging up, Angeline threw the pregnancy test sticks into the bin, put on her coat, and
headed outside.

James had already introduced Gregory to everyone when she arrived at the laboratory.
Upon seeing Angeline, James told Gregory, “This is Angeline.”
Gregory turned to look at her. He felt a sense of familiarity with Angeline but couldn’t pinpoint where he had seen her before. He smiled and stretched out his hand.
“Hello, I’m Gregory.”
He recognized the others on the research team because he had previously met them at various competitions. As they were from the same country, Gregory would go to their teams to eat for
free.
They gradually grew closer to one another.
“Hello.”
Angeline shook the other party’s hand.
“I think I’ve seen you somewhere before,” Gregory said.
“I’m not trying to hit on you. It’s been a while since I last returned here. Still, I think you’re
familiar to me.”
As Angeline had gone viral online, it was expected that he would recognize her. As such, Angeline simply smiled in response.
“Hey! You’re trying to flirt with Angeline the moment you arrive. Did you know that she’s single?”
Reese hooked an arm around Gregory’s neck. The two men seemed close.
Then, Reese added, “Angeline, he’s single too. He has been single since birth!”
Gregory’s ears reddened at that statement. He jabbed the Reese with his elbow.
“Stop spouting nonsense!”
Meanwhile, James was pleased to see everyone getting along well with each other.
“Gregory, you’ve just arrived here. Review the data with Marion first. I need to be somewhere else for a meeting. Continue carrying out the research with Reese here. If you have any problems, feel free to call me,”
Data management became Marion’s responsibility after she became pregnant. James forbade her from entering the laboratory after that.
Once James left, Marion immediately asked Gregory, “I heard you went to Oceanford to help your cousin with his wedding proposal after you returned to the country. How important is it? Why did it require your help?”
