“Alright.” Autumn nodded.

Ethan continued, “At the last seminar, you had to leave early because you weren’t feeling well. This time’s a good chance to finally introduce you to Mr. Lee.”

“I also heard that our mentor might be invited. Though no one knows if he’ll actually show up.

Wilson Lee was the director of the Medical AI Department.

This dinner was a private event he was hosting, so only a select few had been invited.

But word had it his department was on the verge of something big, and companies were scrambling for a chance to collaborate with him.

Needless to say, the guest list for this dinner carried serious weight.

Autumn looked surprised. “Our mentor? Really?”

He was the type to bury himself in research day and night.

Social settings had always been his least favorite thing.

No matter the occasion-conferences, banquets, academic forums-he never showed up.

Because of that, not many people knew just how powerful Edwin truly was.

Most just assumed he was some ordinary old researcher.

Ethan rubbed his chin and smiled. “No idea yet. We sent the invitation, but whether he comes or not, we’ll see.”

Autumn pressed her lips together thoughtfully.

She doubted it. He probably wouldn’t come.

The two chatted a bit more about work, then said their goodbyes.

Autumn got in her car and prepared to leave.

Just then, her phone rang.

It was Richard, probably calling on Luna’s behalf to scold her again.

She ignored it.

That entire family was exhausting.

She started the car and pulled out of the company parking lot.

While waiting at a red light, her phone rang again.

This time, it was her grandmother.

“Autumn, I’m getting discharged today. I’ve been craving your oatmeal. Will you come by?”

Autumn glanced at the countdown on the red light. “Sure. I’ll head over now.”

Even though she suspected the call was prompted by the Lewis family, she hadn’t visited her grandmother in days due to her illness.

Going back to see her felt like the right thing to do.

Some things couldn’t be avoided by running.

If the Lewis family wanted to cause her trouble, they had plenty of ways to do it, and there was no escaping it.

After all, it wasn’t the first time they’d come after her because of Luna.

Every time Luna pointed a finger, the rest of them followed without question.

If Autumn pushed back, she was labeled difficult.

But she had never been the type to just accept mistreatment, which was why every meeting with them ended badly.

The last time, when Luna was seeking a mentor, they didn’t come after her, probably because it hadn’t affected their interests.

But this time? That was a different story.

Autumn didn’t know what Luna was doing at Vanguard, but clearly, she didn’t get what she wanted.

She probably left empty-handed and ran home to stir things up with the family.

She was childish, as always.

Autumn made a U-turn at the intersection and headed toward the Lewis residence, calm and steady.

Whatever happened, she would face it head-on.
