Chapter 521: Chapter 521

Eleanor Sterling stretched her back, feeling sore all over.

She turned to look at the clock and realized she had been in the laboratory the entire day.

After sealing everything away, Eleanor removed her protective suit and opened the door to leave.

Outside the door, the first thing she saw was a tall figure leaning against the wall.

A pure black shirt, a perfectly proportioned physique, leaning there so casually, it was hard to look away.

It seemed like he had been waiting for her for a long time, and Eleanor felt a strange sensation rise in her heart.

Perhaps after knowing Estelle Sterling was his child, her feelings towards seeing him had changed.

Unlike before, when she felt conflicted and resistant, now she was filled with joy.

Alaric Faulkner had come to pick her up.

The moment she saw him, countless memories flashed through Eleanor’s mind.

The initial confusion and the entanglements between the two of them, everything felt like a dream.

She smiled and walked over, then automatically nestled into his chest, affectionately saying, "Why are you here?"

Alaric raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised by Eleanor’s spontaneous closeness.

Was she happy because her experiment results were out? So, what were the results?

Eleanor no longer resisted him like before but was closer to him than ever.

Alaric felt a bit dazed, yet immensely delighted at the same time.

He looked at the smile on Eleanor’s lips; it was genuine, like joy from seeing him from the heart.

A bright smile that only appears when meeting a loved one.

Alaric couldn’t help but smile too, feeling joyful, his handsome face glowing with color.

"Are your test results out?" Alaric asked casually.

"Yes." Eleanor nodded, sighed softly, then said against his chest, "I discovered something interesting, I’ll tell you in a couple of days."

Once she double-checks Caleb Faulkner’s results, she’ll tell Alaric Faulkner that Estelle Sterling is his child.

Alaric looked at her, but held back the question he wanted to ask.

Since Eleanor no longer dwelled on the issue with Faye Sterling, he didn’t want to bring it up again, lest she get caught up in it.

This situation was good, and other matters weren’t important.

Alaric wrapped his arm around her waist and asked, "Hungry? Want to grab something to eat?"

Eleanor nodded, patting her stomach, "Yeah, if you hadn’t mentioned it, I would’ve forgotten; I haven’t eaten all day."

"Skipping meals ? Alright, let’s go grab some food." Alaric seemed somewhat helpless.

Eleanor sighed; she had also wanted to quickly know the results, so she just got immersed in it.

Luckily, the results were not a bad thing. This text is hosted at N()velFire.net

Eleanor had no objections and smiled, "Then let’s go."

As they left the laboratory, they ran into Parker, who lingered his gaze on Eleanor and Alaric for a moment.

"Sally, have you finished the experiment?"

Eleanor nodded, smiling gently, "Parker, can you keep what I did here private? I don’t want to attract unnecessary trouble."

Too many people were looking for Sally, and if Eleanor’s location was exposed, it wouldn’t be an easy matter.

"Sure, I won’t tell anyone about your work, don’t worry."

"Thank you for letting me borrow the studio; I might need it again in a couple of days, and I hope it won’t be a bother then."

Parker shook his head, "Don’t be so polite, we’re good friends, and I’ll always help you when you need it."

Eleanor chuckled softly and said no more.

She and Alaric left together.

Parker watched their backs, sighing: Who would have thought Sally was no longer single.

Many in the medical community regarded Sally as a goddess; if they found out about this, they might be heartbroken.
