Chapter 276 Chapter 276 Bennett ? Noelle was a bit surprised .
Noelle ? Bennett stood in front of her door , surprising her .
She blinked .
Whats he doing here , lingering like t that ? Dont tell me hes got something else for me to do ... Sensing trouble , she immediately tried to shut it down .
Just so you know , Im completely exhausted today .
If youve got something to say , save it for tomorrow .
Actually no , wait .
Ive got another experiment tomorrow .
Say it the day after .
Bennett raised a brow at how wary she looked , then let out a laugh .
Do I really seem that scary to you ? Like some kind of monster ? In my eyes ? Noelle tilted her head .
Youre way worse than n a monster .
Thinking about all the hellish experiments shed endured , she was practically traumatized by now .
Youre not exactly sugarcoating it , Bennert said dryly .
Noelle pouted .
Were siblings why bother being polite ? Bennett paused , caught off guard .
Siblings ? She blinked .
Arent we ? Yeah , he replied after a beat .
Then he looked at family ? ther more closely and suddenly asked , Noelle , do you like being part of the Anderson Noelle was a little confused by the question but nodded .
Yeah , I do .
But we werent exactly nice to you in the beginning , Bennett reminded her . Damon even said hed kill you .
Somewhere , Damon sneezed .
Noelle tilted her head , unsure why Bennett brought this up out of nowhere .
After a moment , she said , I didnt think you were that bad .
You didnt ? Bennett looked at her , surprised .
She shook her head .
No.
Not really Sure , theyd been cold at first , but no one in the Anderson family had ever deprived her of basic needs .
And honestly , in Noelles life experience , that was already more kindness than most had ever shown .
Shed been out in the world since she was ten , after being released from the lab .
People who were nice to her always wanted something in retum .
She never expected kindness from anyone , nor did she take it for granted .
Even Vincent , their pride obsessed father , still sent Kimberly to buy her clothes when he realized she had none .
Eli might grumble nonstop , but he always brought her along with Leia .
And even when they fought , they never really cast her out if anything , theyd apologize when they were in the wrong To Noelle , the Anderson family was surprisingly good .
Not quite as good as Nicolas , of course but still pretty great .
Bennett studied her face , the unwavering sincerity in her eyes .
A smile tugged at the corner of his lips .
You really So what ? she asked , her interest piqued , expecting praise .
Youre Norile deflated instantly .
She looked like a puppy that had just been denied a treat .
y are something else .
help but righ .
He had seen the worst of people and firmly believed in the darkness of human nature unti Noelle maybe people could still shine .
temunded him that mayb her so easy to buri * Brandon wanted all of Noelles memotes from birth -be ling experiment suureded , Bennett was sure Brandon would make his and he had to stop whatever firankon was plotting 2:25 PM c d · Chapter 276 The next day .
Noelle officially began the Memory Read / Write experiment .
It would last a full eight hours .
She lay flat on the table , her head covered in dozens of metallic electrodes , while beside her , a massive machine pulsed and flickered mapping out the wavelength of her memories .
Once her memories were fully transferred , they could be decoded and implanted into other life forms , effectively allowing others to inherit Noelles experiences .
And the experiment was a resounding success .
Just like she promised , Noelle passed it on the very first try transferring all her memories perfectly .
Brandon was more thrilled than anyone .
For the first time , he even beat Bennett to Noelles side , scooping up her nearly unconscious body and exclaiming with delight , Noelle , you were incredible .
We got the entire memory set ! Soaked in sweat and completely drained , Noelle managed a tired smile .
She had never seen Brandon so happy before .
That means I dont have to do any more experiments now , right ? she asked weakly .
No more , Brandon confirmed with a bright smile .
He held her close , practically glowing with joy .
Its all over .
Thank goodness ... she murmured .
If she had the energy , she wouldve run laps around the lab in celebration .
Brandon gently patted her head .
To celebrate , Ill take you out to eat tonight anything you want .
Noelle froze , then gave him an awkward glance . Uh ....
actually , I already made plans with Nicolas .
Were supposed to have dinner together .
The moment Nicolass name came up , Brandons smile faltered .
Noelle immediately grew nervous .
Is he going to forbid me from going TOW ? But to her surprise , Brandon simply smiled again .
I see .
Then go ahead you two have fun .
Well celebrate another day .
Noelle blinked .
Wait , thats it ? Just like that ? No pushback ? Is this ... a trap ? Or did Brandon actually mellow out ? As soon as she stepped out of the lab , Nicolass car was already waiting at the gate Nicolas ! she called , rushing into his arms .
Nicolas hurried to catch her .
How did it go ? Did it work ? Of course it did ! she grinned , showing off her pearly teeth .
Im amazing , remember ? One and done .
My brilliant girl , Nicolas said , fondly pinching her cheek .
Lets head to the restaurant , he added .
Noelle nodded Okay Before e getting into the car , she didnt forget to turn around and wave .
Brandon , well head out first ! Brandon stood in place , smiling gently .
Go ahead.
Have a great time * Noelle nodded and goi in the car .
only to catch the man staring at about to climb in too , but he glanced back at Brandon only was cold , like he was staring straight through Nicolas ... as if he were already ugh Brandon wore a pleasant unde , the look in his eyes was i read man walking badly be wants the dead .
