Sweetheart, Do You Still Love Me

"Alright, Harper.Stop arguing."

Arguing with a knave like that would only anger oneself more but do nothing to the other.

"I understand, Miss Lynwood."

Harper sat down and looked at Rufus, making him feel uneasy.

"How about we do it this way? Give me another two days.If I can't find a suitable candidate, I'll get infected, and we'll use me as the test subject.What are your opinions about that?"

Without thinking, Harper immediately rejected, "That's not going to work.You're the head of this research.What if something happens to you after you get infected? What will happen to this research?"

Harper's words sounded reasonable, and everyone at the scene nodded in agreement except Rufus.

"Why would it not work? She's the head of research, so the more she has to lead by example."

Rufus drank some water and replied nonchalantly, "I have a suggestion.Since you're not willing to let her become a test subject, why don’t you become one instead?"

Harper's eyes were overflowing with rage.

"Rufus, don't think that I'm afraid to kick your "ss."

"My, oh, my.You want to kick my "ss?"

"That's enough!"

Elspeth slammed her hand on the table, and everyone immediately shut up.

"We'll go with my suggestion, and that's final.Everyone's dismissed."

After the meeting ended, Harper approached her and nervously asked, "Are you really going to get yourself infected?"

Elspeth patted him to reassure him.

"Don't worry.There are still two days left.We'll talk about this again if we can't find a suitable candidate after two days."

"I've already asked everyone nearby, so where are you going to find a possible candidate?"

Harper disliked how she was being irresponsible with herself.It was the same every time they encountered a difficult situation.
