Chapter 199

Vincent Macmillan stood to the side, hands tucked in his lab coat pockets, silent.

Camille Valrose tilted her chin up with disdain. "A biology student daring to comment on physics experimental data? What a joke..."

Oliver Lancelot suddenly leaped up from his computer. "Evelyn was right!"

The lab fell silent.

Camille's expression froze.

Natalie Blanchet and Vincent turned simultaneously. "What?"

Oliver pointed at the screen. "The initial values for Node 7 should be 50.2 and 70.88, not 50 and 71! This tiny error caused all subsequent data anomalies."

Vincent rushed to the computer, recalculating rapidly. The data curve gradually normalized under his adjustments.

"It's fixed!" He slammed the desk excitedly.

Natalie verified the results, her gaze turning complex when she looked at Evelyn.

Oliver already gripped Evelyn's hand enthusiastically. "Thank you! This dataset stalled us for three whole days!"

Evelyn calmly withdrew her hand. "Just a lucky observation. Professor Macmillan would've spotted it soon."

Her eyes swept across everyone present.

Natalie felt a pang of guilt. For two weeks, the entire research team had maintained a subtle distance from the new intern.

To them, Evelyn was just a freshly graduated undergrad. A biology major, no less—how could she comprehend advanced physics experiments?

Yet now, this underestimated girl had solved a problem that stumped the entire team for days.

Camille looked the most uncomfortable. Her earlier mockery still hung in the air, now slapping her own face.

She never imagined an outsider would uncover an error the professionals missed.
