How My Ex Became My Next

Kelly pointed to the rightmost position on the second floor and said, “He should be there. Let’s go!”

Gilda followed. The door of the laboratory on the second floor was ajar. Kelly knocked on the door and asked, “Professor Williams, are you there?”

Nevertheless, there was no response.

Kelly pushed the door and walked in. The two of them walked along the corridor to the innermost part. Gilda saw a man with pale hair, wearing a white coat, who was experimenting seriously in the laboratory. He held a dropper and dipped the liquid into the glass bottle. Suddenly, there was a dazzling light…

Professor Williams smiled and stopped to record the data with a pen. After finishing this series, he took off his goggles and walked over from the laboratory. Kelly said, “William! You’re working on your experiment again.”

William was excited, “There is a breakthrough in this data. The new paper at the end of the month finally has its direction.”

Then William looked at Gilda and asked, “Who is this?”

Gilda took the initiative to come forward and greeted, “Hello, Professor William. I’m Gilda, a former

student of the Design School.” This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

William nodded slightly. As if thinking of something, he said, “Which class?”

“Class of 2019.”

Professor William understood and asked, “I was impressed by the classes of 2018 and 2019. Especially Jion, who is one grade higher than you. She used to be my student. Now she is a well– known designer in the world…”

Gilda didn’t expect Professor William to take the initiative to mention Selene, which immediately inspired her confidence. “Professor William, can I ask you something about Jion?”

Professor Williams took off his gloves and looked at her suspiciously. He took a sip of water before slowly speaking. “She is a miserable child. She has good design talent and motivation but has a hard life. Her parents died in a car accident when she was at school, and she also dropped out of school. After a long time of treatment, she recovered. I am gratified she can have such achievements as today’s!”

“You mean she didn’t graduate at all?”

“Yes. But she is very accomplished. In her sophomore year, she won the gold medal in the Berily Design Competition held by our college.”

Hearing this, Gilda was stunned. “You mean the Berily Design Competition, also my freshman year? A competition jointly organized by three schools? Jion took the gold medal?”

Professor Williams nodded, “Yes, shortly after that race, she dropped out of school due to a car

accident…”

“No! Professor Williams…” Gilda’s voice was quivering as she continued, “I won the gold medal that year! I still have the trophy and certificate at home!”

Hearing this, Professor William was also incredulous and frowned.

He raised his glasses on the bridge of his nose and suddenly became very serious. “Did you get it wrong?”

Gilda also thought it was ridiculous. How could she misremember such a thing?

“Professor William, please think about it again. Was Jion really the gold medal winner in that year?”

Professor Williams was a little angry. He thought Gilda was questioning him, so his face darkened. “There were videos and photos of the competition at that time. If you don’t believe me, I will show them to you.”
