Chapter 437

Elodie and Alexander booked their return flights.

This trip had been an eye-opener for Elodie; she felt her mind expanding with new ideas and couldn't wait to get back and discuss the feasibility of her thoughts with the professors at the institute.

She also had a clearer sense now of how different countries approached technological innovation.

On their way home, they didn't run into Jarrod or his group again.

The moment Elodie set foot back in Eldermere, she headed straight for the Sterling estate.

She barely noticed the exhaustion from her long flight; adrenaline fueled her, as if the sheer thrill of scientific discovery could override her body's need for rest.

But when Charlie caught sight of Elodie's pale face, he frowned and waved her off. "Go look in a mirror-see what you look like? Get some sleep first, then come find me when you're human again."

Unceremoniously, Charlie shooed her off to her old room to rest.

Alexander gave Charlie a thumbs-up as Elodie trudged away.

She didn't sleep long, but as soon as she woke, she launched into her stream of ideas with Charlie.
