Shawn subtly shifted the conversation toward Flora, and while Flora wasn't one for many words, each one she spoke was spot on. This earned her newfound respect from the seniors, and they began to like her a lot more.
After all, a beautiful girl is always a delight to have around. Just looking at Flora's face seemed to lift their spirits. Alexa watched from the sidelines, her grip tightening around her fork. A flicker of jealousy crossed her eyes. She despised Flora, truly despised her. She loathed her appearance, wishing she could tear it apart! Not wanting Flora to steal the spotlight, she changed the subject, "Seniors, I've been researching a topic recently..." She purposely brought up technical jargon, flaunting her knowledge. She thought Flora would surely be lost, managing both to silence her and to showcase her own expertise.

Alexa's behavior was like showing off her sword skills in front of a master swordsman, almost ridiculous. Who talks shop during dinner? And to top it off, sof her information was incorrect.
Compared to her, Flora seemed even more endearing. Though of average ability, she was sensible and comfortable to be around.
Darcy frowned deeply, "Alexa, you got several things wrong. You mixed up the non-control systems and feedback control systems. Go back and study these thoroughly; I'll test you tomorrow." Being responsible for Alexa, it was natural for Darcy to point out her mistakes.
"Ah? Oh...maybe I got a bit mixed up. I'll definitely review it thoroughly when I go back..." Feeling utterly embarrassed, Alexa grew quiet and focused on her meal. She silently blamed Flora for everything. After dinner, everyone headed back to the lab. Flora felt a bit unwell and went to the restroom. Shawn cautioned, "Make it quick, okay? Dr. Ray hates tardiness the most." Flora nodded and headed to the restroom. Hearing this, Alexa's eyes flashed with a devious idea. In just a week, Dr. Ray was letting Flora observe a surgery. After one meal, the seniors were already getting along well with Flora. Alexa knew all too well that being attractive had its perks and made people like you. If this kept up, Flora would surely surpass her.
Biting her inner lip, Alexa hurried to the restroom. She opened the door and glanced inside. There were ten stalls in total, only one of which was securely closed. After making sure Flora was the only one inside, she bit her lip and locked the main door. Then, at the entrance, she placed a "Under Construction" sign.
After completing her scheme, Alexa breathed a sigh of relief, a smug smile on her face. "Flora, just wait to be scolded!" she whispered gleefully. What good was being pretty? She was determined to drive her out of the lab! Turning to leave, she hesitated and double-checked the door handle. Seeing it was indeed locked, she relaxed. Her triumphant grin returned, but as she was about to walk away, the door suddenly opened from the inside. She froze, and the next second, Flora pushed with sforce, causing Alexa to stumble forward, falling heavily to the ground. Her head hit the sink, swelling into a large bump that oozed traces of blood. Flora leaned lazily against the door, looking down at her with half-drooped eyes that carried a hint of coldness. Alexa met her gaze, her heart skipping a beat.

"How did you..." She had locked the Q door securely, how Kad Flora opened it
Rubbing her wrist, Flora's smile was both mocking and amused, "Thinking of trapping me? You're still too green."
