After considerable effort, Josie managed to drag Adeline back to the dormitory. As soon as they entered, she collapsed onto the bed from exhaustion.

“Where did you all go for dinner? How did Adeline end up this drunk?” Zoey and Allison came over to
assist Adeline onto the bed.
Josie lay in bed, gasping for breath, “At the restaurant we dined together the last time. The one next to the school! Adeline was probably in a good mood. Joseph was also present, so she ended up drinking a few more glasses.”
“Oh yeah, we were together with two other people from Joseph’s team. They said that their project has already established an intention to cooperate with the Central Research Institute, and the contract will be signed soon,” Josie continued.
Josie suddenly offered, “Zoey, since you have been assisting with our project for some time, would you consider joining Adeline for an internship with Delilah?”
Zoey was momentarily stunned, a trace of panic flickering across her face. “N–no, I don’t think so. I’ve already secured an internship placement.”
“Huh?” Josie sat up, her face filled with surprise.
In her previous life, Josie remembered that Zoey had tried every possible means to enter the Central Research Institute to attract Aiden’s attention. When that did not succeed, Zoey went for an interview
at the Brown family’s hospital.
‘Could it be that Zoey has gone to the Brown family hospital again?‘ Josie wondered.
Josie frowned slightly. “When did this happen? Why didn’t you tell us anything about it?”
“This afternoon, when you were not in the dormitory, Colby personally came down,” Allison said with a smile as she approached. “It’s not that she did not want to tell us. She just hasn’t had the chance yet. Please don’t blame her!”
Upon hearing that Colby was also involved, Josie felt her worries ease slightly. “Is it an internship at the Clem family’s company?”
Josie remembers that the Clem family started out in foreign trade and has now gained a reputation in Aloville. It seems that it was only in recent years, when they wanted to enter the medical field, that they had Colby study medicine.
She remembers reading about this on the news while in prison in her previous life.

Back then, Colby did not follow his family’s wishes to enter a business related to medicine. Instead, he had started his own venture and established an information technology company.
Josie knew that Colby had used Al to resurrect Zoey after she had an accident, but did not know what happened after that.
Zoey shook her head. “No, Colby wants to start his own business and asked me to help with some miscellaneous tasks. I wasn’t particularly passionate about my own major to begin with, so I agreed.”
“This is good.” Josie smiled broadly. “Starting a business will certainly keep you busy. If you need anything, do not hesitate to ask.”
If things keep going the way it is, Zoey is unlikely to have time to think about Aiden anymore. And if the saying that affection grows over time is true, sparks may even fly between Zoey and Colby.
Moreover, it is obvious that Colby likes Zoey and insists on keeping her by his side. There was no way Colby would let Zoey run away again. If he did, then Josie could only say that he’s useless.
Josie was lost in a stream of miscellaneous thoughts when Zoey interrupted her. “Rest assured, I certainly won’t be afraid to ask for help if I need it. I won’t be able to assist you guys, though. You will not hold this against me, will you?”
Josie shook her head. “Not at all. As long as you are happy, anything is fine.”
“Exactly, exactly. Even though we all studied medicine, not everyone can find a job in their field after graduation. I don’t plan to work in a hospital.” Allison handed out her résumé.
Allison then asked, “Can you guys take a look at my resume and tell me if it’s good enough for an interview at a pharmaceutical company?”
Josie glanced at her resume and said, “I recall that there will be an on–campus recruitment. You can try then. Even for internships, you shouldn’t just join any company.”
After she finished speaking, she stood up, took paper and pen, and wrote down the names of several companies. “I am not familiar with other companies, but I hope you don’t go to these companies.”
Allison glanced over and asked, “These are all prominent pharmaceutical companies in Aloville. Why don’t you recommend that I go to them?”
