Chapter 182: Pokemon: I Transmigrated Twice [182]
When Stephen woke up at noon, he suddenly remembered—wasn't the voice of that waitress yesterday Wicke?
He glanced at Lusamine, who was still sound asleep, got up, poured himself a glass of water, and drank it in one gulp.
Yesterday, besides cake, he had eaten quite a bit of seafood rice too.
Arriving at the hotel restaurant, Stephen saw Nessa and Sonia, the pair of best friends, already seated in a corner.
When Nessa spotted Stephen entering, her eyes lit up, and she waved for him to sit down. After he did, she said with a hint of resentment:
"Doctor, I heard you invited Sonia to Alola for research?"
"The situation with the Ultra Beasts has been troubling Professor Kukui and the others. I think Sonia has great talent in this area."
Stephen had already prepared a legitimate reason. Naturally, he could also guess the source of the slight resentment in Nessa's eyes. Without hesitation, he asked, "Do you want to come along too?"
"Can I? Then I'll go find Miss Oleana to transfer my registration right away!"
Nessa's face lit up with joy.
Nessa had long been considering leaving. Ever since Valerie had joined, Rose and Oleana had been subtly hinting that Nessa didn't need to continue as a Gym Leader and could focus entirely on her modeling career.
