---- Chapter 6 Worthless Letter We met another group of researchers when we got to the workplace. A lady came up to us and extended her hand to me. "It's been a while." It took me a while to realize who she was, and I shook her hand quickly. "It has." The lady was Natalie Goldstein. We went to the same university and majored in chip development together. We'd been rivals since then. It was a surprise seeing her here. Natalie told me what she'd been up to since graduation. She started this job and eventually rose to where she was. This time, she was going to lead this research. I knew that look she was giving me- admiration, happiness because of the reunion, and rivalry. "Guess this is our next battle, then." Ismiled. "I look forward to it." We started our research the next day, and it was ---- demanding. Most of our time was spent in the lab. Then, one day, when I was going to get to work, my leader came to me with a letter. ''Are you sure you said a proper goodbye to Lorelei, Jonathan? She's raising hell at your old workplace." He handed me the letter. "Here, take it. It's from her. Read it when you have time." I got back to work, grunted, and forgot all about the letter. Night came, and I left the lab, but Natalie stopped me. She was holding a letter. "You dropped something." Sheepishly, I said, "Sorry, I totally forgot about that. Thanks." She smiled at me. "You're still the same old Jonathan I know. Still work yourself to the bone. Can't believe you forgot your own wife's letter. I might snitch, you know." I took the letter from her. "We're getting a divorce." ---- That shocked Natalie. "But you were the perfect couple! The day you guys went steady, the whole campus' ladies grieved." I smiled bitterly. "Well, perfection wore off." She was apologetic. "I'm sorry, I... didn't know." I shook my head. It was fine. We walked together, and I told her all that had happened during the marriage. "So, she's the reason you had to retire from the frontlines?" Natalie asked. Inodded. "I'd still be on the frontlines carrying out my missions otherwise. Still, this might be a blessing in disguise. At least I don't have to worry about my safety anymore." Natalie nodded in agreement. We kept chatting and eventually arrived at the dormitories. Then, she swiveled around and set her gaze on me." Here's my stop. You should head to sleep, too." ---- Inodded and got back to my room. Then, I opened the letter. It read, "Where the hell are you, Jonathan? Get your ass back here! They're terminating my position as captain because of what I did! I want you to tell my leader you told me to save Felix first, got it? Tell them! " I sneered and burned the letter to a crisp, then I moved to my desk to draft new divorce papers.
