<b>Chapter </b><b>57 </b>
<i>ra’s </i>POV<b>: </b>
After my sses ended, I ran to the student diner to grab something to eat. Luckily for me, I remembered all of these sses from my previous life, otherwise it would have been a grueling day. As I walked up to the register to pay for my burger, someone reached over me handing the cashier their ck card. I quickly spun around to see who was paying for my lunch. It was Casey. Confused, I was about to ask him why when he held up his hand.
“Consider it an apology <i>for </i><i>giving </i><i>you </i><i>shit </i><i>earlier</i><i>.</i><i>” </i>
During ss, I’d answered majority of the instructor’s questions. All of the students just stared on as
the prodigy proved she was worth the hype. <fnb96e> ?? ??? ???? ?? ???? ???? ???????s, ????s? ??s?? find?novel</fnb96e>
I smiled sheepishly at him and nodded my head.
“<i>Thank </i>you<i>, </i><i>I </i><i>appreciate </i><i>that</i><i>.</i><i>” </i>
Casey wasn’t a bad person, he was just cocky, it was good for him to learn now he wasn’t god’s gift
to the world. Holding out my hand for a shake, I smiled my most polite smile.
<i>“</i><i>Friends</i>?”
He stared at my hand for a moment before taking it into his and shaking. His face was full of
confusion when he finally smiled.
<i>“</i>You’re a <i>strange </i><i>girl </i><i>Rouleau</i><i>.</i><i>” </i>
Hearing him call me that immediately shocked me. In all my years, even in my previous life, no one had ever referred to me as Rouleau. It was always Granger up until I married Jason and then it became Sterling. Hearing him call me my mother’s name did something poetic to me. Why should I bare the name of a man who cared nothing for me. All that did was allow him to ride off my glory. I’d made up my mind, first thing tomorrow, I would be changing my name, Smiling at Casey, I offered him to join me for lunch.
“<i>So</i><i>, </i><i>you </i>went to Batrum <i>huh</i>?<i>” </i>
I nodded as I continued to eat my fries.
<b>“</b><b>If </b><b><i>I </i></b><i>hadn’t </i><i>left </i><i>early</i><i>, </i><i>I </i><i>probably </i>would <i>have been </i>valedictorian<i>,</i>‘
When I looked up at Casey, he had this puzzled look on his face.

“<i>How </i><i>old </i><i>are </i><i>you </i><i>Rouleau</i><i>.</i>”

29 almost slipped out my mouth, thankfully I caught it in time.
<i>“</i>I’m 16<i>, </i>I’ll be 17 in <i>October</i><i>. </i><i>Why</i><i>?</i>”
“<i>Because </i>you <i>just </i>seem <i>really </i><i>old </i><i>to </i><i>be </i><i>this </i>young.”
I let out a nervousugh, that was the second time I heard that over that past two days. I better figure out how to act 17 again before people get suspicious, though I doubt they’d surmise I died and came back to life.
<i>“</i>I’ve been around <i>a </i>lot of adults<i>.</i>”
Casey scrunched his eyes but decided my exnation made sense.
After we ate, Casey followed me out to the annex.
“<i>Where </i><i>are </i><i>you </i><i>going</i><i>?</i>”
<i>“</i><i>The </i><ibs</i>. I <i>need </i><i>to </i><i>use </i><i>the </i><ib </i><i>for </i><i>something</i><i>.</i>”
<i>“</i><i>You </i><i>have </i><ib </i><i>homework </i><i>already</i>?”
“<i>Something </i><i>like </i><i>that</i><i>.</i><i>” </i>
I answered vaguely not wanting to give too much away, I was already slightly annoyed he was
following me.
As we entered theb, I took a look over. The same as it was in my previous life, Lexington had some
of the bestbs in the country, I would definitely be able to put my medicines together here.
I pulled out my books and ingredients immediately and got to work. Casey looked at me with a
confused expression. Slowly walking over to the table, he took a look at all of my notes and the ingredients next to them.
“What is all of this<i>?</i><i>” </i>
Staring into a microscope, I answered ndly.
“They’re medications I’ve created to help with themon cold.”
In my previous life, I managed to do what many others before me could never do. CURE themon cold. Once I mastered that, I was able to create cures for a variety of ailments such as covid, the flu,
pneumonia<b>, </b>etc.. It also opened the door for me to create my cure for cancer expanding on my mother’s equations<b>. </b>
<i>“</i><i>Wait </i><i>what</i><i>! </i><i>Are </i><i>you </i><i>telling </i>me <i>you’ve </i>created medications to <i>help </i>with themon <i>cold</i><i>?</i><i>” </i>
Still writing and looking through the microscope, I once again answered tly.
“No…”
“Oh, <i>because </i><i>I </i><i>was </i><i>about-</i><i>” </i>
<i>“</i><i>I’ve </i><i>created </i>an <i>actual </i><i>cure </i>for <i>it</i><i>. </i><i>I </i><i>just </i>needed <i>a </i><ib </i>to <i>put </i><i>it </i><i>all </i><i>together</i><i>.</i><i>” </i>
Casey stood inplete and total shock. His mouth was hanging open, his mind trying to grasp what I’d just said. Finally, he swallowed and began to speak.
