Chapter 761:
âIâve got an idea. Kieran and Lenny, youâre with me as assistants.
Aurora and Jodi, you two handle the documentation.
As for the others, Iâll delegate responsibilities. Lenny, assist me in picking the right people for each role.â
At Harleeâs command, all eyes in the physics lab were riveted on her. Who was this commanding woman? What authority did she have to lead them? Yet, despite their reservations, no one dared to question her openly.
After all, anyone who could command respect from Kieran and Lenny had to possess remarkable prowess. Thus, despite their skepticism, they complied without protest.
Naturally, Jasiah stood apart as the defiant element among them.
Consequently, when Kieran and Lenny executed Harleeâs meticulously crafted plan, they intentionally left Jasiah out of the loop, ensuring he played no part in the experiment.
Frustration etched across his face, Jasiah confronted Kieran.
âKieran, Iâm the seasoned expert here. Why on earth are you entrusting this to my less experienced juniors?â
Before Kieran could respond, Lenny stepped in, his voice calm yet firm.
âWeâre aiming for simplicity here.â
Confusion clouded Jasiahâs eyes as Kieran stepped closer, a sly smirk playing on his lips.
âYouâve made it clear you donât want to assist Miss Sanderson. So tell me, why should we drag you into this? To brew chaos?â
Jasiah widened his eyes.

âMiss Sanderson? That young woman? Lenny, this has to be a jokeâ¦â
Lennyâs gaze turned icy, piercing Jasiah with a chilling look.
âHold your tongue.
Another word, and Iâll have security escort you out.â
Kieran then took matters into his own hands, firmly grabbing Jasiah by the elbow and escorting him out of the laboratory.
He planted Jasiah firmly in front of the data screen just outside.
As the next five hours spiraled into a whirlwind of fervent activity, Jasiahâs expressions morphed from derisive sneers to amused smirks, then to gleeful anticipation, and finally, to a blend of shock, regret, and profound respect.
Jasiah had never envisioned Harlee, seemingly no older than a college intern, would eclipse everyoneâs achievements. Remarkably, she had isolated a critical fragment of the energy wave, a breakthrough in their new energy project.
Ultimately, Jasiah sat there, utterly astounded, his earlier defiance replaced by stunned admiration.
Harlee finished her experiment and addressed a few challenging questions for Jodi before deciding to leave. She had come primarily to observe the special energy wave and assist with the experiment, so she hadnât invested all her attention here. The rest of the team was still occupied with analyzing the data from the experiment and didnât notice her departure.
Harlee exited the National Physics Laboratory alone, pulled out her phone, and opened the exclusive app of the Shadow Moon Society to check her messages.
