Chapter 137
Wynn was momentarily stunned before she pressed her lips together.
This wasn’t the answer she’d wanted.
Zachary was about to push the door open and leave when Wynn quickly stepped forward and asked, “Mr. Newman, how do you think I should improve?”
Zachary paused for a brief moment and replied indifferently, “Do more research. Keep up with the latest developments in the industry.”
Just as he finished speaking, Trevor returned.
Before he could say anything, Zachary stated, “I’ve done what I needed to do. I’ll contact you in a few days.”
“Alright.”
With that, Zachary left.
Trevor looked at Wynn and noticed her expression wasn’t great. “Didn’t go well?”
Wynn nodded frankly. “He didn’t accept me.”
“What did Mr. Newman say? Tell me about it.”
Wynn recounted the entire conversation, including Zachary’s evaluation and advice.
“You’re definitely capable,” Trevor said. “And I think his advice is quite fair.”
Wynn paused. Lately, she had indeed spent less time diving into professional research and rarely followed the latest developments in the industry.
Did Zachary see that she wasn’t putting in enough effort and focus? Did he think her attitude toward her profession was lacking and that she wasn’t worth mentoring, so he rejected her?
Realizing that it was her professional attitude rather than her ability that had led to his decision, Wynn felt significantly better. (1
Trevor said, “You can always try again.”
“I will.” Wynn believed that once she corrected her attitude, her professional abilities would be enough to meet Zachary’s standards.
Thinking about it, she regretted spending so much time on racing in recent months. Otherwise, she might already be Zachary’s student by now.
Zachary soon returned to the villa.
Inside, Celeste and Matthias had just finished buying and washing ingredients, preparing to make stew.
Seeing him return, Matthias said, “Back so soon?”
Zachary took off his coat, his tone as cold as ever. “Mm.“.
Matthias glanced at Celeste, who was coming out of the kitchen with bowls and utensils, then asked gossipily, ” So, I guess we don’t have a new junior, huh?”

Zachary ignored him, took the bowl Celeste handed him, and sat down.
Silence meant no.
Matthias chuckled, raised an eyebrow at Celeste, and said, “See? I figured her out the first time I met her.”
Celeste smiled and sent him back to the kitchen to bring out the rest of the meat. “Yep, you’re the smartest.” Matthias brought the meat over and curiously asked, “Mr. Newman, what level do you think she’s at in the field?”
“Above the average PhD graduate by a small margin.”
“Great minds think alike.”
Over the past decade, the country’s AI field had advanced rapidly, likely surpassing the world’s top standards for some time now.
As one of the most pivotal figures in this industry, Zachary was constantly exposed to the most cutting–edge products, technology, and talent.
Wynn’s level was undoubtedly impressive among ordinary people. But among top–tier students, she was merely above average.
Compared to the people around Zachary, she was still far behind.
As for Matthias and Celeste? That was another level entirely.
After all, Wynn was already 25, yet she still couldn’t even come close to what Celeste had achieved years ago with
CUAP.
