Tobias looked at Russell with a serious expression. "If you want to slack off, that's your business, but Dr. Bennett is a rare treasure in Wustriland. Making her play games with you every day is just distracting her from her research. Aren't you worried someone higher up might call you in for a talk?"
Russell's eyes widened in shock. "No way... seriously?"
Tobias just shot him a look and stayed silent.
The more Russell thought about it, the more freaked out he got. Finally, he raised his voice, trying to sound braver than he felt.
"Dr. Bennett's an adult. She can make her own choices! If she wants to play games, how could I stop her? Besides, even if she's the embodiment of knowledge, she's got two eyes and one mouth like everyone else! People need to relax, right? I'm just helping her unwind a little. Tobias, why are you walking so fast? Wait for me!"
Andrea whipped her head around, but Tobias and Russell were already out of sight.
"Why'd you stop all of a sudden?" Louis asked, confused.
"I think I just heard them mention Dr. Bennett," Andrea said, sounding unsure.
"You must've misheard. Come on, let's not worry about them. I just slipped the manager a fat tip, and he told me where Dr. Bennett's private room is," Louis said, trying to sound casual.
"Awesome! Let's get over there quick!" Andrea exclaimed, practically bouncing with excitement.
Soon, they found themselves outside the private room.
Louis stopped a waiter who was just coming out. "Hey, could you go in and let them know that Andrea Bennett from the science club of Morganburg University is here to see Professor Weaver?"
"Uh..." The waiter looked torn.
"Professor Weaver is a big fan of Andrea. At the new nanomaterial launch, he even came looking for her himself. Just go ahead and let him know. If anything goes wrong, we'll take responsibility," Louis assured him.
As he spoke, Louis slipped off his watch and handed it to the waiter.
The waiter eyed the luxury watch in his hand, still looking a bit unsure. He glanced at Andrea. "You really know Professor Weaver?"
"Of course! I swear I'm not lying!" Andrea replied, sounding confident.
The waiter studied Andrea's face—she didn't look like a liar. And with that expensive watch in his hand, he figured it was worth a try.
So he headed into the private room. "Professor Weaver, there's a Miss Andrea Bennett outside who says she knows you. She wants to see you."
As soon as the words left his mouth, the lively chatter in the room died instantly. Every single pair of eyes snapped to Kaia and Stephen.
Stephen looked downright miserable. "Dr. Bennett, please don't misunderstand. I have absolutely nothing to do with Andrea. I think she just got the wrong idea when I helped you out at the last press conference."
Kaia just waved it off. "I know, this has nothing to do with you."
She knew Andrea's personality all too well—always so full of herself, thinking she's better than everyone, always reaching for the stars.
She glanced at the waiter. "Don't let her in."
"Yes, understood," the waiter replied, not missing a beat. It was obvious there was some bad blood between Andrea and Dr. Bennett.
Thinking about it, the waiter was cursing Andrea harshly in his head for nearly getting him screwed over.
As soon as he stepped out, he shoved the watch back at Louis, pulling a long face. "People inside said you're not allowed in."
Andrea and Louis didn't read too much into what the waiter said. They just figured Dr. Bennett liked to keep things low-key and didn't want her identity to get out.
"Andrea, let's go," Louis said.
"No, we can't just leave like this," Andrea replied.
"What do you mean?" Louis asked, puzzled.
"Let's just wait nearby. When they're done eating, we can try to catch a glimpse of the legendary Dr. Bennett and see what she looks like," Andrea said determinedly.
Russell's eyes widened in shock. "No way... seriously?"
Tobias just shot him a look and stayed silent.
