Chapter 790

Owen Reynolds glanced at the clock on the wall, suddenly realizing the time was completely inappropriate.

His ears turned crimson in an instant, but he maintained a serious demeanor. "Can't do it tonight, how about... tomorrow night? Is that okay?"

"Sure," Roseanne nodded.

"Are you heading to the lab tomorrow?" he asked.

"Yeah, I am."

"What time are you leaving?"

"Around eight, why?"

"Let's go together. I'll bring breakfast from that café by the campus gates. Remember you said their potato pancakes and coffee were great?"

"Sounds good, Professor. Thanks!"

"Well... it's getting late. I should head back."

"Alright."

Roseanne saw him to the door.

Owen turned back, "Goodnight."

"Goodnight."

Was it her imagination, or did he seem oddly cheerful even as he closed the door?

Once Owen was gone, Roseanne quickly fell into a deep sleep.

Next door, Owen was in a completely different state.

After getting home, he was too excited to sleep.

Cousin? Really a cousin!

Every time he thought about it, a grin spread across his face that he couldn't suppress.

By 1 a.m., still without a hint of sleep, he gave up lying in bed and got up instead.

He fired up his laptop and continued working on his research paper.

It wasn't until 3 a.m. that he finally dozed off, only to wake again before six.
