“Secretary Rollins, you suffered tremendous physical torment during each bout of attack lately. Now that you’re about to get rid of your suffering, shouldn’t I congratulate you?” Lily smiled and spoke casually.Looking calm, she did not seem to be joking and was bafflingly sure of herself.Cameron slightly narrowed his eyes. “Who told you I’ve been suffering? I’m in good shape!”Besides losing some weight and looking a bit worn, there was nothing off about him, especially his eyes.Lily fixed her gaze on them. His brow was furrowed, and his eyes showed impatience and scrutiny. However, his gaze was not dull, which was unusual if he was indeed under the influence of some drug.“Oh, yeah?” Smiling, Lily suddenly raised her hand to pat his shoulder.In shock, Cameron quickly moved aside and slapped her hand away, but it was a ruse. Lily gently hit below his ribs with her other hand before withdrawing the hand that was patting Cameron’s shoulder.As it was all too sudden, and she ga

Lily’s fingers felt around the back of Cameron’s head, then suddenly stopped. Then Anastasia and Alexander saw her fingers slowly move away. Lily was holding something shiny between her two fingers. The other two would not have seen it if the light did not reflect on it.“What was that?” Anastasia said in shock. She was horrified to see Lilly pull it out from the back of her father’s head.Before Lily could answer, Cameron straightened his back and widened his eyes as if his head had gotten shocked. Then he mumbled something and slumped over. He would have slid off the chair from being unable to hold himself up if Anastasia did not support him.“Dad? Dad!” Anastasia called out anxiously, but Cameron gave no response. He remained still and could not hear his daughter’s screams with his eyelids and head drooping.“Lily, what’s the matter with him?” Anastasia hurriedly looked toward Lily.Meanwhile, Alexander narrowed his eyes at the thin silver needle between her fingers. “If I’m no

“That silver needle…” Seeing Lily pulling the needle out from the back of her father’s head was too overwhelming for Anastasia, and she kept thinking about it.“It’s an acupuncture needle Rhea had inserted into a pressure point at the back of your father’s head. Rhea must’ve used it and the toxin to exert control over him. There are records of such an evil method in the ancient text.“Still, the practitioners only used the silver needle to pierce through the point before manipulating their targets. Those who were under control had no volition like a puppet.”Lily gave Anastasia a rough explanation and simultaneously became pensive. “However, the ancient text does not mention a case like your father’s as he seems to retain his volition and is not much different from a normal person. Perhaps the perpetrators added the drug and enhanced the method.”“So, can my father regain his old self?” Anastasia earnestly asked as it was what she cared about most.It did not matter if the cause w

Alexander l smiled casually. “Well, you said it’s hard to trace the toxin’s origins now that Rhea has died. Would it be a lot easier if she isn’t?”“Rhea isn’t dead?” Lily asked.“I’m just saying, what if.” He paused and then chose his words more carefully. “Her death seemed too sudden. It was almost as if she had died on purpose.”Lily agreed with him. “That’s right! I feel the same way about it. I’ve dealt with her several times, and she’s cool-headed and almost cold-blooded. Furthermore, she used to be a top student overseas and had received many awards, not to mention she must’ve done more experiments than I have. How could such a severe explosion happen so suddenly?“Even if it was truly an accident, I doubt she would have no time to escape, let alone get herself burned beyond recognition.” Lily had heard from the police that Rhea’s body was unrecognizable when the firefighters brought her out.Lily thought it was rather suspicious. ‘If it was not to purposely hide something,

However, Alexander showed no joy and looked a bit solemn.“I received news about him about half a month ago, but I didn’t tell you because you were busy,” Alexander explained casually. “He’s safe now and still alive.”“That’s great news!” Then, heaving a sigh of relief, she seemed to remember something and fished out her phone to make a call. “What are you doing?” Alexander asked while holding her hand. Lily moved her phone-holding hand away and said, “I’m calling Olivia to tell her the good news! Oh, did your men tell her?”‘I bet she’ll be thrilled to discover that Edward is still alive and safe!’Holding her hands with both hands, Alexander stopped her from making the call and said, “You don’t have to tell her. She knows about it.”It was at this moment that Lily sensed that he was acting strangely. He is not thrilled or excited to share the news with her, but rather unhappy. Why?’“Did something happen?” she asked hesitantly. When she asked the question, different scena

It was not far away, and soon they reached Olivia’s apartment building. Lily had been here before and knew the area well, but before getting out of the car, she couldn't help but think, "How about I call Olivia and let her know we're coming?"Alexander shook his head. “If you make that call, we might not be able to see them.”“Why?” Lily was taken aback. “I’d like to know why as well. It’s best if you ask them that later.” Pointing his chin to the upper floors, Alexander opened the car door. They got out one after another and went upstairs without bringing the bodyguards. Standing before the door to the unit, Lily still could not understand what Alexander meant. She wondered why they could not see the couple if she had called Olivia beforehand.‘Also, Olivia seldom contacted me lately. When she did so twice, it was through emails. It’s something she has never done before.’Pressing the doorbell, she heard noises inside, but no one answered. Only when she pressed several times d

Lily went in after her, then gave Alexander a look to signal him to join her.Glancing around the place, Lily saw that it was a bit messy. Olivia was a neat person who usually kept the apartment tidy. However, now the carpet lay crooked, the trash can was almost overfilled, and drinkwares were placed haphazardly on the table. There were traces of someone lying on the sofa, with the cushions everywhere. However, they only saw her and not Edward. When she was downstairs, Lily wanted to ask about Edward’s health, but she changed her mind after seeing Olivia’s uncharacteristic attitude. “Olivia, you hardly called me recently, although not much is happening at the studio. Did something happen?” She paused and watched as Olivia poured a glass of water, then asked tentatively, “Is it because of Edward?”Even though Olivia was facing away from her, Lily could see her shoulders shudder. A few seconds later, Olivia brought the glass over and gave it to Lily. Then, fixing her stare on A

Lily pulled Olivia over when she saw her acting like that. “Oliva, stop letting your emotions cloud your judgment, and let’s discuss it like adults, shall we? What the hell happened? Why did you think Alex pushed Edward and made him a human shield? Who told you that?“Don’t forget about the incident with the ring. Perhaps someone tried to turn us against each other.”That had to be it. Otherwise, Olivia would not have become so emotional and even asked Lily to choose between her and Alexander. Now, Olivia had ended up treating Alexander as a murderer.“No, that’s not the same thing!” Olivia shook her head and firmly denied it.“How is it not the same? Even that could be fake, let alone an accusation. You—”Before Lily could finish, a voice interrupted her, “Edward told you that, didn’t he?”Lily looked over her shoulder in astonishment as it was none other than Alexander who said it.“Alex?” Confused, she looked at him in shock.Olivia was also surprised as she did not expect h
