Chasing the Unexpected (Nyla)

Chapter 89

The weekend flew by, and soon it was Monday.

Nyla returned to the R&D department to continue her experiments.

Lucia also came back to work, but she was much more low–key than before, pretending not to see Nyla and completely lacking her previous arrogance. Whether she had truly learned her lesson or was just biding her time to scheme again was unclear.

The day passed quickly. Nyla received a call from Valarie just before the end of the workday, inviting her out to dinner. Since she had no other plans, she agreed.

When Nyla arrived at the restaurant, she noticed a young man, around 20 years old, sitting next to Valarie. He was full of youthful exuberance, and Nyla couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow.

As soon as she sat down, Valarie eagerly introduced him, “Nyla, this is my new boyfriend. What do you think?

The young man blushed and looked down shyly when Nyla’s gaze fell on him, his ears turning red.

“Where did you find such an innocent–looking guy? He’s not still in college, is he?” Nyla asked.

“You guessed it,” Valarie replied.

Nyla was speechless. She had assumed Valarie had just been joking about finding a college boy, but she acted so fast.
