Roseanne's eyes sparkled with excitement. "Because, my dear brother, I've got a project that's right up your alley. Are you in?!"

Halley was momentarily stunned, his eyes wide with surprise.

"...What kind of project?"

"A smart lab. But there's a catch - you'll need to handle the construction part as well."

Yes, Roseanne was not looking for just any laboratory; she wanted a state-of-the-art, fully automated lab!

The meal was rushed, with both of them scarfing down their food.

After hearing Roseanne's requirements, Halley couldn't wait to leave and start working on a proposal for the project.

As soon as he left, Roseanne immediately hit up a group call with her two other "partners in crime," Mamie and Scales. Naturally, they were all in.

It seemed there was no better plan than this.

She thought she might have to wait a few days for a response, but to her surprise, Halley called first thing the next morning.
