The Unshackled Queen: Never Say Never by Gilbert Soysal

After a brief absence, Saul and Hannah returned to the laboratory.

Taking a quick survey of the room, Saul wasted no time.

“Looks like everyone is here.

Let’s get down to business.

Turning to Hannah, he announced, “Hannah has brought back some cutting-edge tech from overseas, along with a research project that is almost wrapped up.

Hannah intends to share this research with our institute.

If we pull it off this time, everyone at our research center will get double bonuses!”

Judy clapped enthusiastically and turned to Hannah, exclaiming, “I always knew you were the most promising among us!”

Lewis chimed in with a playful jab, “Absolutely.

Hannah is our professor’s pride and joy.

Even though Stella had paused her experiment, her expression remained stoic, unmoved by Saul’s announcement.

Phoenix beamed at Hannah, expressing his enthusiasm.

“This is fantastic news.

We are looking forward to learning from you, Hannah.
