“I’m not suitable for you.” That was the only thing Arius could think of to say.

Georgina paled. “Don’t overthink my gift, Professor Gullifer. This is just a token of my appreciation for the help you’ve provided me.”

Well, if she’s putting it that way, I have to accept her gift now. Otherwise, I’d be embarrassing her. Without any other choice, he accepted the box.

In response, she sighed in relief. “I’ll be heading to work now. See you.”

When Arius opened the box, he saw a costly watch. This is way too expensive. Why would anyone gift someone such an expensive watch for no reason? I’m feeling very burdened right now. What am I supposed to do? I can deal with any experiment, no matter how complicated it is, but I’ve no experience with romance. Georgina’s a good woman, so I really don’t want to hurt her feelings.

Sophie was amused by his reaction and let out a laugh. I didn’t expect Arius would one day be in such a situation.

“Why are you laughing? This is all your fault. What do you think I should do now? I really don’t want to hurt her.” Arius sighed. It wasn’t easy for Georgina to join the Chanaean Medical Association. I can’t let this become the reason for her departure.

She answered, “How would I know what you should do? As impressive as I am, I’m incapable of controlling other people’s emotions.” There’s nothing anyone can do to change someone’s mind when it comes to liking or disliking someone.

The matter was genuinely troubling Arius. What the heck should I do with this gift?

“All right, that’s enough. We should head to Dr. Smith’s office. I have something I want to tell you two about.” Her smile faded, replaced by a serious expression. I mustn’t let our enemy know that we’re aware they’ve planted a spy here. Otherwise, things’ll get messy.

Upon arriving at Barney’s office, Sophie told him and Arius about the spy. “Our research is at a critical point right now, so we must be vigilant.”
