Chapter 717:

Kieran and Lenny immediately chimed in, their voices laced with agreement.

“Exactly. We should stop wasting time on this nonsense and focus on discussing the new energy project instead!”

Aurora and Ronald, who knew Harlee’s sharp temperament all too well, lingered near the back, watching the situation unfold with quiet anticipation. Watching people squirm with embarrassment and regret was, without a doubt, the most entertaining part.

Harlee rolled up her sleeves, stood up with casual grace, and took the test paper from Fleming. She scanned the sheet, her pen moving in a blur as she answered all the questions in just ten minutes.

Leaning back slightly, Harlee tapped the table with a careless rhythm, showing no sign of irritation at the insulting simplicity of the test. With a languid glance around the room, Harlee lazily asked, “I’m done. Who’s in charge of grading?”

Without waiting for an answer, Harlee strolled over to Jodi.

“Sorry. I didn’t respond to your questions earlier. I hope you are not upset with me.”

Jodi instantly waved her hands, trying to brush it off.

“I won’t be upset with you, Miss Sanderson! Please, take care of your business first.”

Harlee smiled softly and asked, “Is this your notebook with the questions? Mind if I take a look?”

Jodi nodded, still in a daze.

Harlee flipped through the notebook, and after reading the questions for just a few minutes, a sly smile tugged at her lips. Picking up a pen, she began to write, her hand moving as she provided detailed solutions. She spent a full hour on ten questions. It wasn’t that the questions were overly difficult, but Harlee quickly realized that Jodi’s skills weren’t strong. So, she took the time to break things down thoroughly.

Behind her, Kieran, eager to learn from Harlee’s answers, watched closely.

His eyes widened when he saw the last question about the new energy project.

Kieran gazed at Jodi.

“Your name is Jodi, right?”

Practically trembling from the excitement of being addressed by her idol, Jodi blurted out, “Yes, yes, I’m Jodi. What can I do for you, Kieran?”

Kieran pointed at the last difficult question and asked, “Why are you interested in the new energy project? From what I know, your department doesn’t focus on that at all.”

Jodi’s face flushed, and she nervously stammered, “Well… It’s because you are my idol. I have read all of your papers multiple times. I know you have been struggling with this issue lately, so I thought I’d include your question. Kieran, are you upset?”

Kieran’s expression softened, and a warm smile spread across his face.

“Upset? Not at all.

Actually, I’m grateful. Once Harlee finishes with the answers, do you mind if I borrow your notes to copy them?”

Jodi blinked in surprise.

“Harlee?”

Kieran gave a small nod, pointing at Harlee.

Jodi’s eyes went wide with shock. She could only nod, completely speechless.

Overhearing the conversation, Lenny shot Jodi a look.
