Imperishable Intergalactic Romance 3 Don't You Think Something Is Off?

They never thought that the calm, weak, and constantly bullied Abigail would be this fierce when she retaliated. They wondered if all the previous acts and accusations in the past were also setups.

But now, they believed, it was more like a setup, they didn't forget that Abigail said that she didn't come to take the acid. So, if it is genuine, then is it true that it was all a setup? But why would anyone plan such a dangerous feat? They wouldn't set it up unless they had a power behind them to cover up.

Ellie was the only person who had the power. She got that power by using her bed skills. As they went deeper into the issue, it became clearer.

"How would I know? I don't know anything! Why are you asking me all these questions when her table is the one that blasted?!" Amelia said frantically.

Well, she is chickening out now after making a big drama. It's a sight to be held. Abigail wanted to give her a huge round of applause.

Abigail gave a small laugh which was entirely filled with mockery. As Amelia observed her facial expression, it seemed as if she was saying, 'You are flying away when you are being questioned! Huh?'

Abigail turned towards Ellie. She stared into her eyes with a cold glare. Ellie felt as though her glare was akin to a sharp knife that is slicing apart her whole body. She was always used to framing and bullying her. And she enjoyed it. However now, it seemed like, Abigail was the one, who is bullying her. Ellie couldn't take it. It is a humiliation to her, a huge one at that. She couldn't bear it. She stood in this spot because of Abigail. Her hatred rose against her.

Ellie is standing under the questioning gaze of Abigail. Her face had a look as if saying that, 'It's your turn now, wait for it."

Ellie wanted to scratch her face with her beautifully manicured nails and ruin it. But she can't. she swore to herself that she will ruin her beautiful face one day.

When she hooked up with that old greasy Chairman of Vasily Vasil'evich Dokuchaev Research center. He used to ask about Abigail. Whenever their deed ended he used to start talking about Abigail. He used to say he wanted to feel her under him. This made Ellie hate her more.

Whenever she went to that old Chairman to get her things done. He asked her to return the favor using her body. She agreed to it and would return the favor. And, after the deed was done, that old man would ask about Abigail since she was prettier than Ellie. 

Ellie used to think that she looks more beautiful than Abigail. Nonetheless, it's not her fault to think like that. Every time the people around Ellie used to praise her beauty. So, when Old Man talks about her hatred increased in Ellie's heart. It's because she will agree that Abigail is more beautiful than her.

Actually, Abigail should be in a higher position than a senior scientist position. But she was still in junior scientist position. This was due to the constant suppression of Ellie through her pillow talk.

In fact, he asked her to obey the unspoken rule he set up. But she refused, so he suppressed her growth when Ellie asked him to do. Even though Vasily Vasil'evich Dokuchaev Research center was run by the government of Russia, its functions were controlled by the management team of the research center.

If not for these people, then she would have been the team leader of the senior scientists.

Whenever her growth was controlled, she would not say anything. Even if she did nothing, she is blamed. Now, she needed to prove her innocence. So that no one will use their tongues or fingers at her.

Abigail stared at Ellie calmly for a minute. Ellie tried to open her mouth to say something. But when she opened it to say something, nothing came out. In actuality, there was nothing she could say.

"Miss. Ellie, just like Miss. Amelia said you went to get Pota.s.sium chloride solid crystals, right?"

Ellie nodded her head after the question seemed harmless and on top of that she didn't find it fishy.

"Miss. Rebecca, can you lend me your Pota.s.sium chloride crystals jar for a few minutes?" She asked Rebecca who was standing amidst the crowd.

Rebecca's table was next to Ellie's table. It was beside the wall. So, the other side of Ellie's experimental table was empty. But another side Rebecca's table was there.

Ellie didn't like Rebecca because she never praised or fawn over her as others did. She treated Ellie as she treated others. Rebecca didn't give any special status to her similar to others. But Ellie felt Rebecca was looking down on her. So, she hated her.

Quickly Rebecca went to her table and got the thing that Abigail requested. Abigail glanced at it and asked, "Why is it not used until now?"

"That.. since I brought it yesterday afternoon. When Miss. Ellie asked me for it yesterday, she accidentally dropped it on the ground. So, I brought a new one from the storage room." She explained.

Abigail turned towards Ellie with an indifferent expression on her face. "Miss. Ellie, you can see that Rebecca has a new bottle that is not even opened, but why do you need to go storage room instead of asking her?"

"That's because I don't like using other people's things!" She voiced without even thinking. Then why did she borrow it yesterday?

"Really?"

"Yes!"

She did the same mistake again.

"Hmm.."

"Then why did you take her Pota.s.sium chloride solid crystals when you don't like to use other people's stuff?" She questioned.

Ellie's face turned blank then her face turned red which made others wonder, whether it was due to anger or embarra.s.sment.

"It is because I need a lot," she replied weakly. She didn't notice that her voice is fading.

"Then how did you do your experiment when you broke the bottle. If it was urgent, then it might be a very crucial point of time for your experiment. But you didn't continue your experimentation yesterday. And, you also didn't go to the storage room in the morning or in the afternoon too. Now, I wonder how did you continue your experiment?"

Abigail shifted her gaze from Ellie to the crowd around her, "Can anyone here tell me that, did Miss. Ellie borrow your Pota.s.sium crystals?"

She heard a series of, "No'es."

"Can you tell us how did you advance your work after that?" Abigail inquired Ellie while directly staring at her eyes.

Ellie felt Abigail eyes piercing into her soul. She felt like Abigail could read her mind. Her body stiffened. Her back drenched in sweat.Her whole mind is in a mess.

"I….." No words came out again.

"Miss. Ellie, first you ran out of Pota.s.sium chloride crystals. But G.o.d knows when you ran out off. You asked for Miss. Rebecca's supplies and when she handed hers, you broke it. Moreover, you didn't continue your 'urgent' experiment. And today you remembered that you need Pota.s.sium chloride crystals. So, you went to the storage room to get it. But by the time you came back, your table was a mess. Don't you think something is off?" Abigail inquired.
