Return, My Love: Wooing the Neglected Ex-Wife

Chapter 931:

They hadn’t seen each other in nearly a year, and the unexpected reunion brought a wave of joy to both.

When the old man finished his sketch, Lynda jumped up, embracing Aurora tightly.

“Congratulations on graduating, Aurora!”

Lynda wore a stylish sundress paired with high heels, radiating the carefree charm of a college student. In contrast, Aurora’s innocent demeanor and simple attire reflected her high school years still lingering behind her.

She chatted animatedly with Aurora, her arm casually draped around her shoulders.

However, their conversation was cut short when Lynda answered a phone call, and her expression changed instantly.

Recalling that Dunn had also been interrupted earlier by a phone call, Aurora suspected that the two incidents were likely connected.

“Aurora, I’ve got to run. There’s an issue at the lab I need to handle immediately!”

“Alright, take care and be safe.”

Lynda pulled her into a warm embrace. “If I remember right, your goal is Dugruayae University, right? I’ll be waiting for you there!”

“I really appreciate that. Thank you.”

Lynda left in such a hurry that Aurora barely had time to ask how things were going with her boyfriend.

Lynda was pursuing a degree in pharmaceutical engineering and was deeply involved in research for a new cold medication, which also served as her entry for an upcoming competition.noveldrama

She rushed to the lab, quickly put on sterile attire, and entered the observation room, donning her goggles and gloves with practiced ease. Out of habit, her eyes scanned the room, instinctively searching for that tall silhouette amid the sea of sterile suits.

Dunn was already there. Wearing goggles, his calm and focused demeanor radiated an air of quiet determination.

Lynda turned her attention to the teacher, who was delivering a stern reprimand. The ten test subjects for the experiment had all perished. The challenge before them was far more complex and daunting than expected.

The group huddled together, working tirelessly until midnight, unwilling to let their guard down. Their dedication was so intense that they barely found time to eat, driven by the urgency of the situation. In high school, Dunn had been a legendary figure. Yet here, both he and Lynda were the youngest participants, with much to learn.

Being the youngest among more experienced peers fostered a sense of camaraderie between Lynda and Dunn, though their interactions were minimal.

A kind senior male student ordered takeout for everyone. The group stepped outside for a quick bite, hoping to recharge before diving back into their work.

Lynda grabbed two bottles of water and looked for Dunn.

She found him on the steps, talking and smoking with two senior male students.

Since starting university, she had seen him smoke a few times. Back in high school, however, she could never have imagined this perfect student secretly drinking or smoking.

When the two senior students were called away, Lynda approached Dunn and handed him a bottle of water.
