Chapter 56 A Breakthrough and a Battle
When Sierra worked on experiments the was completely focused. Her small face was tense, her soft lips pressed tightly together in restraint. She looked both controlled and strangely captivating
Such a contradiction of a person
Johnathan soddenly thought of the organization.
since meeting Sierra, he hadn’t thought about the organization in a long time.
wondered–between Sierra and the organization, who was more impressive?
im the organization disappeared, he felt a deep regret. He had come to Northwind University, stayed in Maviston, searching for three years with no results.
At the time, a friend had told bim he was in love with someone he had never even met
He didn’t think it was love. It was an admiration.
He admired intelligence and Sierra was intelligent.
He was always more lenient with intelligent people.
He just hoped Sierra wouldn’t let him down.
He was lost in thought when suddenly Sierra turned to him, eyes shining with excitement.
“Johnathan I did it
Johnathan blinked in surprise.
Sierra grabbed his hand pulling him forward.
On the lab table, two completely incompatible substances had fused.
This was the step that had blocked her progress for so long. She had tried countless methods but had never been able to make it work
Yet now, she had broken through
With this step completed, the rest would be much easier.
She had proven theimpossible–that two fundamentally incompatible things could merge under the right conditions.
Johnathan stared at the experiment, his dark eyes filled with both astonishment and satisfaction.
From the moment Sierra had proposed this idea, he had thought itwasfascinating.
He hadn’t interfered.Thiswas her project. Even though it intrigued him, he had held back
He had thought it would take hermuchlonger to reach this point. But here she was
Adjusting his glasses, Johnathan looked at her seriously and said, “You really are talented”
At her age, he wouldn’t have been able to do this.
“That’s because you keptencouragingme,” Sierrasaid.
Her ideas were wild, often dismissed as impossible.ButJohnathan never shut her down. Instead, he urged her to keep going.

Suppressing her excitement, she added. “But this is only the first step. There’sstilla long way to go.”
She had only solved the mostbasicissue.
“For you, it’s just a matter of time,” Johnathan said.
With this as proof, he was certain–she would succeed.
“Alright, that’s enough for tonight. Time to rest.
He checked his watch.
If Sierra hadn’t been so emotionally unsteady today, he wouldn’t have brought her here at all.
He hadn’t forgotten–she was still recovering.
Hearing his words. Sierra finally noticed her exhaustion.
They left the lab.
Finished
In the car. Johnathan hesitated for a moment before saying. I have another place. A smaller apartment. If youwant, you can stay there for now,”
“No need
She knew he meant well, but she shook herhead.Tmstill under observation. I have to go back to the Xander house every night. But it won’t be long before I’m free.
“You sure? They didn’t look like they were going to let go anytime soon,” Johnathan remarked.
Sierra let out a quiet laugh. “Don’t worry. They’ll give up soon enough.
She knew the Xander family too well.
Right now, they pretended to care because theirfamily’sreputation wasn’t at stake, because they hadn’t faced any real danger.
But the moment a crisis came, she would be thefirstone they threw away.
This had already been proven–again andagain.
Johnathan glanced at her, lipspressingslightly together. “Then I hope you get yourwishsoon.”
Thanks.
That night, she got back late andmanagedto avoid seeing the people shedidn’twant to see
The next morning, before the sun had even risen, she left for the lab.

The experiment had finally madeprogress. She needed to seize this momentum.
But today, luck wasn’t on her side.
The experiment wouldn’tmoveforward.
And just as she was growing frustrated, she got a callfromthe hospital-
