He explained, "I mean, you've got plenty of time to hang out with Romeo, now make a little more money, so that those medical projects can start." "It's too late," Arabella said. "He's already pissed." "I'm screwed now; he's definitely going to punish me, Ms. Bennett, you gotta help me!" Jack sent out a bunch of SOS emojis, whether he was crying or laughing was hard to tell. He had once praised Romeo, why didn't Romeo hear it? "Don't scare him off," Romeo patted Arabella's head. "Where's the meetup? I'll accompany you." Arabella asked for the location again, but both were very cautious, saying they'd provide her with the location tomorrow.
If they didn't know the situation, they'd think they were up to no good.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIn the evening, Arabella received a call from Jack.
"Ms. Bennett, is Romeo still mad?" "You're calling just to ask that?" Arabella didn't expect it, he was actually scared shitless and then she started laughing.
"Can you just tell me if he's still mad? I'm mainly worried he'll be mean to you." He remembered Ms. Bennett once saying that Romeo was a hard person to console. Ms. Bennett wouldn't be accompanying him from afternoon till night, would she? If so, he'd be giving Ms. Bennett trouble.
"He's not mad anymore," Arabella told the truth.
"Really?" "Mm-hmm." Jack was relieved and hurriedly got to the point: "Oh, right, someone wants you to compose a piano piece, but he can only afford three million." "Really?" With her popularity, the price of the tasks she accepted was definitely more than three million.
Was this guy deliberately lowering the price, or could he only afford that much? "That person did ask a lot of people, from a starting price of one million to three million, it seems like he doesn't understand the market." "Is it for tomorrow as well?" "Ms. Bennett, how did you know?" "I'm not doing it." Arabella glanced at the time. Tonight, she still had to check the experimental data sent by Grandpa Beck, and she didn't have much time to handle tasks.

The concentration of this toxin was low, but it was spread out, making it difficult to extract completely.
Arabella tried several methods, none of which worked. Romeo, who was outside the lab, noticed this and knocked on the door.
"Romeo?" Arabella saw the man walk in with a late-night snack, and her tone was somewhat heavy: "There's a problem." "What's the problem?" Arabella told him the results of her findings: "I've never seen this kind of toxin before. If it wasn't for the advanced equipment you sent, it wouldn't be detectable by the previous methods." Now, if this toxin wasn't extracted and it entered the human body, who knew what reaction would occur.
"Let me give it a shot." "You can?" Arabella was a bit surprised, even a little incredulous. From the time they met until now, she didn't know this man had knowledge about making drugs.
"I only have some theoretical knowledge." Previously, Romeo had envied Caden and Arabella because they could perform surgeries together and discuss the patients’ conditions.
Although he couldn't perform surgery or make drugs, he did have some understanding of different types of equations.
