Chapter 23

The messenger from the government had arrived and that made Katherine have to be even more serious about finding the formula they needed. But the first formula failed and she still regretted it until now, why did it have to fail when all the ingredients were almost perfect?

Sitting again at her desk, Katherine drank the chocolate she had brewed in a glass. She knew some of the food and drinks her mother gave her were Elano's gifts. Over the past few days the man had never stopped, always trying to make her melt. That's why last night, Elano could only persuade her with this.

"If it's like that, I can't do anything but give her another chance. So far she has also shown no signs of committing any mistakes or crimes or wrongdoings. I must give her a chance to make her feel more confident."

Katherine was immersed in studying some new materials that she could make into disaster-proof building materials. Because of the previous failure she still had a lot of things to fix that she was in no hurry to tell the formula she had been working on. Because now the main point was to be able to provide materials that would not collapse immediately in the first test.

"Iron has the ability to be strong enough but the disadvantage is that it can make the room hot when the weather is hot. This means you still have to use extra electricity to make the temperature cool. But because there is an absorbent material, there won't be as much waste as there is now. I have to find a way to make this work without increasing the amount of electricity, because if there is an absorbing element, it can store the cold energy and not use the air conditioner for a long time."

"But using iron can also use the air conditioning of the ice cubes directly. He will prevent the ice cubes from melting, not like this then everything is more perfect and good. I have to make a few more summaries so that they can clearly understand what I have discovered. But later I will also explain a few more things and make sure everything is safer this time."

She knew that because of yesterday's mistake, her colleagues would also have second thoughts so she had to make sure everything really went well first and then she would say it later because this case was already more serious and even the government envoy had come to warn them.

"If only the one last night hadn't collapsed then it wouldn't have been difficult for me and for us to run everything well. But nothing can be solved since it's all just trouble, it's better that I pay close attention to everything now so that no further problems will occur. I'm not sure about the current formula so I have to work on some other things to make things more convincing."

Moments after, Katherine walked out with her tablet. She walked outside, about to do some experiments of her own. She intended to make a house out of iron and it would be used for her own tests before bringing it to the Professors.

One of the ironmasters and iron cutters she had called, purposely to help her make a house out of solid iron. Katherine even made it into several types, having them cut the iron according to the design and that she would use for this trial business.

"What have you been doing these past few days? So busy, some of the professors are doing assemblies and you are absent."

Elano who was visiting that afternoon asked making Katherine sigh.

"I was doing my own trials, so I spent a lot of time and money on that. When I get better, I'll tell you about what I've experienced and gotten."

Elano looked at the girl's face with a serious gaze, until he felt somewhat at ease that Katherine had accepted him at this time. This girl had been quite kind to him, showing that their friendship was also good. But she also couldn't force it if Katherine didn't want to tell her about what she felt and got from her new research results.

Right now she was keeping it a secret and it was not the same as yesterday when she had not expressed her intention to join the same organization as Katherine. Today she was acting casual, while now it was no longer and it made Elano realize that their relationship was no longer the same.

"Don't feel too sad if you fail once, failing is just a process that will make you feel and see what you can get in the future much better. As the saying goes, experience is a valuable teacher. With all that, you just need to calm down and see where you went wrong. So that no problem gets bigger and makes you stressed. The problem can get bigger because you make it bigger yourself, otherwise he will stop and wait for you to fix it."

Katherine nodded. "But I can't relax either, I have to be more successful and be able to make things make more sense. I won't make things messy," she said with a serious face.

Elano knew that Katherine's determination and faith were huge and no one could undermine her. No one can make her stop because this girl will do whatever it takes to break into something new, with that I will also be able to make things better.

Her determination is great and her skills are also quite recognized, Katherine can be anything she wants to be. Now, she just needs to make it all come true.

"No intention of going out with him?"

Katherine smiled and shook her head slowly as she reopened the sketch on her tablet.

"I have some work that I can't leave, Mom. After this I'll be making a lot of summaries and backup plans so of course I can't spend time on useless things. Going out and having a meal with her doesn't seem like something I can do right now since I'm still so busy. I'll do it sometime," she said making Sonya nod.

She also couldn't do anything because this girl was her child and she understood best how Katherine dealt with things. She was a serious person and wouldn't make things that were already related, it was also why she couldn't make everything fall apart just because there were some things that didn't fit.

"What do you want to eat tonight? Mom will cook for you."

Katherine smiled at her mother. "I don't have any ideas, you cook anything and I'll eat it."

Sonya smiled and rubbed her head gently. "You are a happy child and your father would be proud to know that his daughter is a person who thinks about human life. You are your father's daughter who cares about everyone, if he were still around he would be proud of you for caring about others."

Katherine smiled and nodded. "I also became like this so that I can prevent bad things from happening to us, Mom. I don't want to lose my father and lose my mother too, that's not a good thing because I don't want to live alone. It's all very hard with all sorts of things that could become something terrible in the future. I really don't want to invite Mom to live in a difficult situation, with the city in ruins and the weather getting more chaotic and hotter. I wanted to make things better and make sense and that would make me happy.

"I won't be able to change the world for the better and the weather will stop being so hot. But I want to make things easier by upgrading vehicles and buildings used by humans like us. I hope I can because it's hard to get the easy stuff done. That's why I have to work hard to make it happen, so that mom is comfortable and we can live happily."

Sonya smiled at her daughter's dream. "Hopefully, I can't expect much but hopefully things will get better. Mom also really wants to enjoy life like a normal human being in general but if we can't we can't expect anything either. I hope you can, so that we won't have any difficulties in the future."

"You can, I'm sure you can. Technology will always develop, whether it's with me or with other people, we can still find how to use it and the formula so that we can live calmly and do everything well. We don't have to worry about the teachings and work of technology that we will succeed in getting. With everything, I know there's an easy way to make a profit, because if it's discovered then it will be immediately announced to the world and that will also make everything come true.

"We will use all those discoveries for our lives, even if we have to pay a high price but it's worth it and I'm sure the people who discovered the formula will use it as a way of survival. I don't care how much money we have to spend on it so now I'm working so we can save up and get what we need."

Sonya smiled softly and sighed. "If so, you should do well then mom will try to make you happy with everything you work for. Hopefully after this, there won't be any mistakes and you'll still make a profit big or small, that way it will bring happiness to mom too."

Katherine smiled and nodded slowly. "Thank you, Mother. You have given me so much and supported me with everything you did. I'm glad I was able to get it with you supporting me, all this I did and gave for you to make you happy and live safely."

Sonya smiled, feeling so moved that she rubbed the corners of her eyes.

"My success is just around the corner, I can definitely find everything and make mom happy. Please support me so that I can give all of that to Mom."

Lowering her head, Sonya gently kissed the top of Katherine's head. "I'll always be here, supporting you and watching you develop into a great person."

Katherine smiled, sighed and looked up at her mother's flushed face.

"I'm going to go cook, don't forget to do everything and come down for dinner."

Katherine smiled and nodded.

"Okay, I'll come down later."
