Just left it unattended for a while, the pot was already burning, thick smoke was coming out in the kitchen, choking her.
She quickly took the pot off the stove, but she was in such a hurry that she grabbed the edge of the pot and got burned. She screamed in pain as the pot slipped from her hand and fell to the ground, spilling the burnt food all over the floor, making it completely inedible.
One misfortune after another hit her, making her feel so bad that she cried nonstop.
She felt like it shouldn’t be like that.
She should have been sitting comfortably in the office, eating the meal prepared for her by others, delivered to her by Theron himself, taking care of her while she ate.
That night, she fell asleep in a cold bed and had a dream like that.
In the dream, Theron packed the delicious food Lizzie made in a lunch box, wrapped in a thick lunch bag, and brought it to her office. They ate and chatted happily together.
Confidential Laboratory.
Oswaldo took Lizzie and passed through several checkpoints, entering a research room.
A few people in white coats were holding a research report, reading and discussing it quietly.
Oswaldo clapped his hands and got everyone’s attention.

“Hey guys, hold on a second.”
Everyone stopped and the chatter died down. All eyes were on him, sizing up the young girl next to him.
“This is Ms. Trevino, transferred from Equinox Research Laboratory below, she’s a very talented researcher, from now on, she’s part of our team.”
Once Oswaldo got into study mode, he was all business, no small talk. His team members knew his personality well.
Besides, he had been waiting for Lizzie to join the group for almost a month. Now that she finally arrived, he just wanted to wrap it up and get straight into the research.
Lizzie was also very straightforward, “Hi everyone, I’m Lizzie, nice to meet you all in the future.”
After Lizzie said that, Oswaldo felt like it was the end of the
introduction, so he grabbed her and took a few steps forward, then had her sit next to him.
She was still taking care of her, her leg was not convenient, so she walked a bit slower.
Everyone sat down and looked at their materials while sizing up Lizzie.
Lizzie was young and had bad legs. Don’t know if she got hurt or just couldn’t get better.
Oswaldo has started talking about the lithography machine project and assigned tasks.
He spoke quickly, and everyone immediately looked away, focusing on the documents in their hands, listening carefully to what Oswaldo was

Of course, they took a quick look at Lizzie. They’re not heartless like Oswaldo, they still need to take care of this new young girl in the group.
As a result, they found that Lizzie almost immediately caught up with Oswaldo’s rhythm and got into the groove right away.
Oswaldo not only understood the problems she was told, but sometimes she could also come up with some other ideas on her own to share her thoughts.
This time, the few old researchers next to me were all surprised.
They used to think that young Lizzie wouldn’t be able to keep up with Oswaldo’s fast pace.
They were worrying for nothing now. Lizzie, indeed, is as excellent as Oswaldo said!
There was only one tall and slim female researcher, Judith Foster, who kept staring at Lizzie. Before, that seat next to Oswaldo was always taken by her!
Lizzie had worked with Oswaldo before and knew he was a research maniac, always working tirelessly. So, she could keep up with his
pace.
Others had already gotten used to it, so no one noticed that lunchtime had quietly slipped by.
Until someone patted his growling stomach and glanced at the oblivious Oswaldo, he shook his head in resignation, got up, and prepared to go eat.
As soon as he moved, everyone else caught on and stood up too.

A few colleagues, all looking hungry, exchanged a knowing glance and quietly started tidying up their work that was temporarily put on hold
They walked up to Lizzie, lowered their voices, and kindly reminded her
“Lazzie, once Oswaldo gets busy like this, we don’t need to wait for him.”
Another researcher chimed in.
“Yeah, let’s go to the cafeteria first when we’re hungry, or we won’t have energy in the afternoon.”
Lizzie heard that and she did feel hungry, so she put down the files in her hand and got ready to go together.
“Okay, thanks for the reminder.”
She had reached for the crutch beside her and was about to get up.
A hand suddenly reached out and gently grabbed her arm.
Oswaldo didn’t even look up, “Wait a minute.”
