Flash Marriage: She becomes Mrs. CEO after the Failed Dowry Talk-Chapter 911: Meeting Professor Bishop

Just one step away, Nora Northwood suddenly hesitated.

After all, she was still a woman in her twenties, right at the prime of her life.

Jasper Sinclair noticed her change, squeezed her fingers firmly, and said solemnly, "Trust me, you will live healthy and well."

Once inside, Professor Bishop came out to greet them personally.

"Mr. Sinclair, Miss Sinclair, nice to meet you for the first time. You are a bit different from what I imagined."

Nora uttered an "Oh," with her tone slightly rising at the end.

But Professor Bishop didn’t continue the topic and instead led them to his laboratory.

The research institute had little sunlight, giving off a chilly and cold feeling.

Nora disliked it immensely. Fortunately, there was a small window in Professor Bishop’s lab.

Her gaze frequently lingered on the window.

Professor Bishop noticed this carefully and gently asked, "Miss Sinclair, do you like the sunshine?"

"Yes, it’s very warm, and I’m afraid of the cold."

So, Professor Bishop adjusted the air conditioner, raising the temperature to twenty-nine degrees, warm enough.

As he put down the air conditioner remote, he spoke again, "The sun also represents the hope for life. You still have a pessimistic element in your mind, don’t you?"

"I didn’t realize you also studied psychology, Professor Bishop."

The heavy topic was breezily brushed aside with a joke.

Professor Bishop’s gaze swept past Nora to where Jasper stood behind her and tentatively asked, "Mr. Sinclair, I need some private space to have a conversation with your sister. Would you mind waiting a bit?"

An elderly man with white and grey whiskers addressing a young man with such a title sounded somewhat amusing.

Yet, directed at Jasper Sinclair, it was understandable.

He was someone capable of breaking and creating miracles.

Despite being such a person, he firmly rejected Professor Bishop’s proposal, insisting that he must be present to listen.

Despite his powerful presence, Jasper couldn’t fully open Nora’s heart to Professor Bishop.

While Nora didn’t fully understand Professor Bishop’s intentions, she knew he meant no harm.

She turned her head, saying, "Big brother, you want me to trust you, and you should trust me, too. Wait for me outside, okay?"

"No."

With a dark expression, Jasper still refused.

"You haven’t discussed the rat poison matters with your assistant yet. Once winter is over, the rats will come back."

The nearby Professor Bishop was puzzled, what did rat poison have to do with this? 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺

Fortunately, Jasper agreed and went outside, giving them an hour.

To Professor Bishop, half an hour was enough.

After Jasper left, Professor Bishop didn’t rush into understanding Nora’s condition and health status.

For the first ten minutes, they toured the nearly hundred-square-meter lab together.

In some places, it resembled Nora’s fragrance studio.

As they walked and talked, her tense mood relaxed considerably, and she even considered borrowing some layouts for VK.

After their tour, they stopped in front of the small window.

Only then did Professor Bishop steer the conversation to the main focus, "Have you noticed anything unusual with your body recently? Mr. Sinclair described some things to me, but I believe you understand your body the best."

By this point, Nora almost thought Professor Bishop was a professional medic.

In actuality, he was a double major in medicine and pharmaceuticals, a titan in the industry.
