Semua Bab Till Death Do Us Apart: Bab 41 - Bab 50

What could have prompted the man to do such a thing, add water to her experiment after the filtration? The question itself seems absurd to her. He has been very on edge about her completing the experiment,why would he add water and ruin the whole thing?It hardly makes sense but if it wasn't the professor, then who was it?She needs to figure it out.Her eyes search around the room for any clues that could help. She stops mid step as she catches the blinking light of a camera at the corner of the room.Yes!How could she have forgotten?There are cameras in the lab. If only she can get access to the footage from the other day, she will easily find out who tampered with her experiment and maybe, she can.She bites her lip in thought, an idea already formulating in her mind.The professor has direct access to the cameras from a computer in his main office. Getting in is not an issue, but there is just one thing stopping her from going right now, Linda.Like her, she knows the professor'

The video starts playing, showing herself as she recalls, working on the solution, the professor coming in and seconds later she leaves the lab, then almost immediately, the man moves towards the experiment, filtering it.Her eyes are trained on the screen tracing after his figure as he grabs the wolfsbane extract. The professor takes a glance at the door before putting it in another container as opposed to putting in the trash as he’s supposed to and she frowns.Why is he keeping it?Bile rises to her throat and her frown deepens, disappointment gripping her heart for him as she sees him holding the conical flask of the filtrate under the tap.He did add water to it. Her heart breaks and she can not believe her eyes.Her hard work, all her time and sweat spent in the lab, only for him to ruin it in a second Not only that, she remembers the way he had snapped at her and called her incompetent. He had reduced her value to nothing, making her feel incapable, over something he had done?

After the whole day just resting and trying not to dwell too much on anything, Raven finally allows her mind to wander and dwell on everything that has happened to her with the professor of late. It’s so hard for her to believe that the man she once trusted and looked up to immensely would turn out to be someone like that.She remembers seeing him walking out of the lab with a cooler after she returned but thought nothing of it but now she realises that it must have contained the wolfsbane extract he had taken with him into his office.What could he have taken it for and now that she thinks of it, she had never seen any of the previous ones being emptied out of the trash.Her phone vibrates on the bedside table next to her and she glances at it to see a call from the professor yet again.Unfortunately, this wasn't the first, she lost count after the fifth call and just muted her notifications. There were several messages too, she had stopped reading after the first two demanding her r

The sight of Carla opposite him leaves a bad taste at the back of her tongue but that is not what bothers her most. It is the look that Draco is giving her. A look of recognition of Royce and shock that they are together, he can lie to himself all he wants that he is some Rex guy but that look doesn’t lie. Carla notices his distracted moment, following his gaze to Raven and Carla’s lips curl in distaste before she taps his hand to bring his attention back to her. Raven looks back at Draco, gauging him. She notices it all, the way his hands are tightened into a fist, the way his jaw is set in a frown. If she did not know any better, she would say he is jealous seeing her with another man or perhaps one that he knows. “What are you going to get?” Royce asks beside her, grabbing her attention. She quickly looks away from Draco, noticing Royce is unaware of his presence. “Anything you’re getting,” she replies, taking another quick glance at Draco before looking at the overhead menu on

“Professor McCall wants to see you, and it would be best if you come with me,” Linda is blunt and straight to the point. Raven stares at her for a moment without a word, but she knows what she has to do. There is no way she can possibly escape this now. “Let's go,” she mutters with a small frown before walking past her to the passenger side. The professor is already waiting when she arrives at his office. “You’re finally here, this time at least.” The expression on his face is nothing close to his usual friendly look and she realises that he has been wearing a mask with her all along. He does not seem to care about maintaining it anymore though. “Now, what am I hearing about a resignation? I thought we had a common goal, Raven?” he says in this eerie tone that creeps her out. “I am no longer interested in working on the project,” she answers simply, keeping her tone calm and polite. “What do you mean by you are no longer interested in working on the project? Do you know how many
