Cassius spotted a crowd gathered outside the lab from a distance, which struck him as unusual.
He frowned. "Huh?"
As they got closer, Celeste finally noticed a woman standing inside the lab.
Her high ponytail swayed as she shifted her weight, and her long legs were impossible to miss. She had big, bright eyes, a slender figure, and a strikingly sweet, innocent look.
Celeste could immediately tell something was off with Cassius. His posture stiffened, and he let out a small grunt.
A few students saw Cassius approaching and grinned playfully. "Professor, someone's here to see you! A real beauty came looking for you!"
As soon as the woman spotted Cassius, she beamed and strutted over on her long legs.
Her voice was crisp and lively. "Cassius! I've been waiting for you forever!"
Cassiu
