Jalen was taken aback, “Can you understand it?”

Just as Keira was about to reply, the introverted male colleague jumped in. “Jalen, I think she’s telling the truth.”

Jalen glared at him, “Do you two know each other?”

Luca blushed and nodded, explaining to Jalen, “She’s the only undergraduate student that Professor Miller recruited for the project. She’s a fast reader, and she has experience with these fundamental frameworks.”
