A Replacement Bride

Chapter 277

Chapter 277

As soon as the researcher finished her sentence, the other researchers covered their mouths and tried to hide their laughter.

"Rita, that's very rude of you!" Howard lifted his brows and chided her, but from the tone of his voice, he didn't hold her accountable.

Meanwhile, Katherine maintained a neutral expression throughout. She shot an indifferent look at Rita and lifted her well-shaped brows slightly.

Suddenly, Katherine spoke up and her cold voice rang out. "Your surname's Cornell too."

At that point, Rita lifted her chin and revealed an arrogant expression. "Yeah, is that a problem?"

Katherine curved her lips into a slight smile and replied calmly, "Yes."

Clearly, Rita didn't expect this reply from Katherine, so the former couldn't help but frown before expressing rudely, "What's the problem?"

Katherine countered as rudely as Rita, "The problem here is that we've both got the same surname, Cornell, but you're foolish beyond words."

As soon as Rita heard that, her expression turned quite ugly. "What do you mean by that?!"

However, Katherine didn't respond to Rita immediately. She turned to look at the large screen in front of the lobby, which displayed the details of each team member within a research unit, their research topics, and their research progress.

"E1 reagent. That's such a simple research topic and yet, your team has spent three years on it without making a breakthrough. What's the point of continuing your research? You should give up your lab coats and leave this place."

As soon as Katherine said that, Rita and the other team members in the same research unit glowered and revealed angry expressions.

"What sort of nonsense are you on about?! You make it sound as if you're very knowledgeable, but do you even know what an E1 reagent is?! Do you have any idea how difficult our research is? How dare you brag loudly in front of us?! You're quite boastful, aren't you?"

"Yeah! You make it sound as if you've found the research outcome, but you're just giving us crass comments here."
