From Trash to Treasure: The Sinclair Family's Beloved Genius Chapter 85: Mr. Sutton is Dumbfounded

Director Warren didn’t understand any of this. He scratched his head and asked, "Mr. Sutton, is there a problem?"

Seeing the director still didn’t get it, Mr. Sutton was so incensed that he started trembling all over. His lips quivered, unsure of what to even say.

Standing to the side, Howard Thorne kindly explained, "Chloe Sinclair and Jolie Yates have the sa research focus, so their topics might overlap. Besides, Jolie is extrely well-versed in condensed matter physics. If Chloe also researches condensed matter, she’ll be at a huge disadvantage."

Unless Chloe Sinclair was exceptionally brilliant, it would be very difficult for her to advance to the next round.

Even Landon Sinclair, who had always had great faith in his little sister, frowned.

’But Chloe is clearly more talented in that other field...’

However, having tutored Chloe Sinclair for so long, he knew she wouldn’t take such a risk unless she was absolutely certain she could win.

Therefore, the anxiety that had been gripping him just a mont ago imdiately subsided.

"She has her own plans," he said. "But Director Warren, could I trouble you to go confirm with Chloe Sinclair one more ti later?"

After hearing the explanations from the experts, Director Warren finally understood. He nodded quickly and personally ran to the lab to ask.

When he got there, he was surprised to find Chloe Sinclair hunched over her desk, scribbling and sketching.

The director confird the topic with Chloe Sinclair one more ti. Seeing her resolute attitude, he didn’t press the matter further and returned to inform the ntors.

The other ntors didn’t show much of a reaction.

Only Mr. Sutton was still fuming.

But since Chloe Sinclair had already chosen condensed matter, there was nothing he could do to stop her.

Only Daisy Young offered a word of comfort. "Let’s just wait and see. Maybe she’ll surprise us."

This ti, Mr. Sutton said nothing.

The five ntors returned to the observation room.

Inside the observation room were six television screens, each one broadcasting a live feed from one of the six contestants’ rooms.

On the screens, several contestants were already hard at work on their experints, but Chloe Sinclair was the only one still hunched over her desk, working intently.

"What is Chloe Sinclair doing? Could it be that she has no ideas?" Howard Thorne voiced his doubt.

Ian Winters and the others shook their heads.

Just then, the cara zood in, focusing on the ssy symbols on Chloe Sinclair’s scratch paper.

At first, Mr. Sutton didn’t grasp it. But after following Chloe Sinclair’s line of reasoning for a while, his expression suddenly changed.

The next mont, Landon Sinclair and Mr. Sutton shouted in unison, "Quick, move the cara away!"

Although Director Warren was confused, seeing the grave and astonished expressions on the two physicists’ faces, he quickly and obediently panned the cara away to a wide shot.

Even after the shot changed, Mr. Sutton remained in a daze, unable to process what he’d seen. He asked, "Is Chloe Sinclair calculating the three-dinsional quantum Hall effect?"

Landon Sinclair’s face was also etched with shock. He had never imagined Chloe Sinclair would be so audacious.

Then, Mr. Sutton said faintly, "She’s truly gone mad."

The other contestants were all working on their own unfinished projects. No one had expected Chloe Sinclair to directly test a conjecture that had yet to yield any results.

Just then, Chloe Sinclair suddenly moved.

She glanced up at the surveillance cara, gave the machine a small smile, and then looked down, quickly selecting a few of the most inconspicuous items from a pile of lab equipnt.

When Mr. Sutton saw the equipnt Chloe Sinclair was holding, the last glimr of hope in his eyes vanished completely.

But the next scene left Mr. Sutton aghast, his eyes wide with shock. He couldn’t help but ask, "You can do it like that?"

No one spoke. All eyes were fixed on Chloe Sinclair on the screen.

Before they knew it, the experint had been running for six hours.

Several of the other contestants had already started to take breaks.

But Chloe Sinclair’s hands never stopped moving. She was simultaneously recording data and scribbling down notes and diagrams.
