Chapter 179
Terrence coldly snorted, “He’s the one doing the work, not others!”
Oswaldo wasn’t embarrassed at all, he warmly took Lizzie to her well- prepared dormitory.
The conditions at Confidential Laboratory were better than that regular research laboratory at Equinox Research Institute, and the dorms looked much bigger than before.
Oswaldo was introducing the research laboratory while leading Lizzie to the dormitory door.
“This is it.” He handed the key to Lizzie.
Lizzie thanked, took the keys, and opened the door, walking inside.
Terrence’s gaze swept between the dorm room doors of Oswaldo and Lizzie.
“Did you put Lizzie next to you?”
Oswaldo turned his head to the side, he was the vice director of Confidential Laboratory, so what if he used a little privilege.
Terrence stopped Jarred from taking Lizzie’s luggage inside and said, “Switch it up.”
Oswaldo put Vivian down and let her follow Lizzie inside.
“Lizzie was a talent that I worked hard to bring in, living next door to me makes it convenient for me to take care of her.”
That makes sense, actually.

But Terrence just chuckled and said, “Is it to take care of her, or is it so you can talk to her about work anytime?”
Oswaldo’s mind was read, he blushed, he never saw the sun, his skin was already pale, a little blush on his face was very noticeable.
“I… it’s just convenient for taking care of things.”
“Ha.” Terrence believed he had seen a ghost!
Oswaldo got anxious, “Lizzie likes Vivian so much, she definitely wants to live closer to Vivian. Plus, Lizzie didn’t say anything, why are you in such a hurry?”
He squinted at Terrence, “Are you feeling sorry for Lizzie?”
Terrence didn’t flinch or look away, very calmly said, “I’m afraid you’ll ruin the flowers of our country.”
Oswaldo blushed, “I will pay attention.”
“How did you know she was willing to be neighbors with a research maniac like you?”
Oswaldo didn’t respond yet, then he heard Vivian’s baby voice saying to Lizzie, “Lizzie, Vivian and dad live next door, we are…”
Vivian tilted her head, thought for a moment, and then happily said, “We are neighbors!”
Lizzie gave Vivian’s little nose a pinch, “Really? We’re neighbors, so we gotta look out for each other.”
“Yeah, yeah!” Vivian nodded her head, and Little Jojo also shook back and forth, “Does Lizzie need Vivian’s help?”
Lizzie couldn’t help but give Vivian another hug with her adorable

look, and Vivian giggled.
“Yeah, can Vivian help me tidy up the room?”
“Sure, sure!” Vivian said, looking up with a bright, eager expression on her face that said, “I want to help.”
Oswaldo raised his chin and said, “See, Lizzie agreed to be my neighbor.”
His look of asking for a beating made Terrence itch a little.
Lizzie gave Vivian a towel, and they wiped the table and the cabinets together. Laughter from Lizzie and Vivian could be heard in the room from time to time.
Oswaldo took the luggage from Jarred’s hands and was about to carry it inside.
Just as he lifted his foot, a bony hand reached out in time and gently landed on his shoulder, stopping his steps.
“This is the girls‘ dormitory, you’re a big man, you should be mindful of boundaries.”
Oswaldo gave him a look and said, “How can she carry such heavy things like that? We’re just friends, and Vivian is still here.”
He carried his luggage and walked in.
When Vivian saw him, she happily ran over, reached out her little hand, and held the luggage handle with him.
Oswaldo not only had to carry heavy luggage, but also had an extra pendant, making it difficult for him to walk smoothly.
But Oswaldo had enough patience with Vivian, he didn’t find it

troublesome at all, instead he slowed down and went along with Vivian.
“Lizzie, Dad and I brought your luggage in.”

Lizzie noticed Oswaldo’s footsteps getting tripped up, so when Vivian approached, she bent down and gently patted Vivian’s head, took her hand, and diverted her attention, freeing Oswaldo.
Oswaldo took a few quick steps and the luggage was placed on the table.
Lizzie casually unzipped her bag and took out some stuff, then started organizing her things.
Vivian also learned by example, reaching out her little hand to help Lizzie gather some small items together.
Sometimes little hands can’t hold steady, things get crooked, and Vivian will carefully straighten them out.
Lizzie looked at her sweet little face, feeling all mushy inside. Daughters are so great.
After tidying up the room, Oswaldo arranged for dinner, “Lizzie, it’s getting late. Let me take you to the cafeteria first, and then we can discuss the specific work arrangements.”
Lizzie took Vivian’s hand and walked out of the dorm, “Okay, thanks, Oswaldo.”
