Chapter 1455As soon as they came into the house, the two saw Eaton sitting on the sofa in the hall.Molly was mentally prepared to be questioned by this crazy man.But Eaton greeted her nonchalantly, "You're back?"Molly glanced coldly at him without saying a word.Eaton was already used to her attitude. He rose, came over, and said, "Molly, if you want pharmaceutical materials, you can come to me. Why did you have to try to go to Selon?"Molly was baffled, not knowing what he meant. She frowned, looking at him. Eaton said, "Rhett has told me everything. He said you went to ask Selon to look for pharmaceutical materials for research use for you!"Molly was a little shocked.When did she… go to Selon for pharmaceutical materials?She glanced at Rhett involuntarily. Standing not far away, Rhett looked the same as usual. Molly couldn't believe it. Why… did this guy suddenly hide the truth from Eaton?He always only listened to Eaton's orders, didn't he?Why did he sudd
Chapter 1456That night in her room, Molly didn't even dare to close her eyes.Eaton's drunken incident had given her very serious psychological trauma. Then, the next morning, her head felt so heavy, and her stomach was even a little uncomfortable. After washing, she felt her stomach acid surging, making her retch at the sink. When she came downstairs, she looked a little pale.Eaton immediately asked with a concerned face, "Are you all right, Molly?"Ignoring him, Molly went to Lesley's café with her things. She thought she would have to wait, just as she had done. But the moment she arrived, she found the door was open. She pushed the door open with confusion and went in. Immediately, she saw Vaughn sitting behind the bar counter.As their eyes met, the man smiled gently at her, "Morning."Molly asked in great surprise, "Why did you come so early, Vaughn?" As she spoke, her eyes swept around the café. She asked, "Has Lesley also come?"Vaughn said with a smile,
Chapter 1457After breakfast, Molly helped clean up the dishes before going straight to the lounge to sleep.Not disturbing her, Vaughn watched the café alone outside.Molly woke up at noon, looking lethargic. Lesley was brewing coffee at the counter. When she saw her, she couldn't help but laugh, "Do you want to drink a cup to perk you up?""Sure, thank you, Lesley." Molly accepted it. "You don't have to speak to me so formally, do you?"Lesley gave her a playful glare before continuing her work. Molly took the chance to look around the café and saw many customers, but she vaguely felt that something was missing.Just then, Lesley asked, "By the way, why haven't I seen the bodyguard watching you today? Has Eaton changed his mind because he's guilty of himself?" Hearing the reminder, Molly finally realized what was wrong. Indeed! Rhett would usually follow her wherever she went, but he was not close behind her today. She subconsciously walked outside and looked around
Chapter 1458Molly had some food and took medicine at noon. Then her stomach finally felt much better.In the afternoon, she was holed up in the café searching for information, and Vaughn kept her company all the same.Halfway through reading, Molly closed the book, looking a little depressed.Vaughn noticed that and asked involuntarily, "What's wrong? Why put on such an expression?"A little discouraged, Molly replied, "Nothing. I just think I'm so useless. I can't do anything on this island. I thought about entering the research base to find some clues, but I can't do it. These days, I have read many medical books, hoping to find information about insect venoms, but I've found nothing. There's nothing else I can do except be trapped!" "How could you think that way?"Vaughn put down his book and gently stared at her. "In order to prevent your fiancé from suffering from the insect venom, you followed Eaton to the island against your will. That means you've paid a great price. T
Chapter 1459As soon as Molly heard those words, her eyes lit up. “This is a really good idea.”Lesley was still a little hesitant. “No... I think we shouldn't take such risks. Molly, I know you want to save the people of the Ballard family, but have you thought about how you’re going to leave the island after you’ve replaced Logan? The island is heavily guarded and you would need to pass through multiple layers of security in order to leave and that’s not easy. If anything happened then it will cause the rest of the members of the Ballard family to be in big trouble.”“Ms. Fallon, I know what you’re worried about, but this isn’t as serious as you thought. The reason that we want to replace Logan is that we want to know more about the base and other important intel. There’s still quite a while to go before we’re going to leave the island. Besides, don’t you want to know if there are any other members of the Ballard family on the island? Or do you think that there’s only Logan in the
Chapter 1460Later on, Molly and Lesley discussed the details of the plan again with Vaughn.By the time they were done, it was already more than two hours later.When they came out, Lesley grabbed Molly and asked, "Are the people of the Shepard family worth trusting?"Molly knew what Lesley was worried about.However, out of instinct, she still tried to coax Lesley. "Don't worry. I feel that Selon and Vaughn are worth trusting. If you still have any doubts, you can ask Mr. Ballard about his opinion."Lesley thought about it and agreed. She then quickly went to make a call.Molly looked at Lesley's receding figure, curved her lips and walked out of the room.Vaughn returned to where he was and was drinking coffee.Molly sat opposite him and just stared at him.Vaughn cocked his brows and asked with a smile, "Why are you looking at me like that?"Molly replied with a smile, "Nothing. I just feel that you're so capable. You were able to find out the population of the island an
Chapter 1461Molly knew that Jordan was going to agree, so she knew Lesley would agree as well.Molly smiled. "That's good to hear."Only until the day had gone dark did Molly leave Lesley's cafe.Vaughn followed behind her. His dark eyes were locked onto Molly's slim figure.Molly knew that he was behind her. She kept a blank face, but one could tell that she wasn't happy from her eyes.She reached out and opened the car door, took a deep breath and turned around to look at Vaughn. Her voice was indifferent. "Sorry about what happened in the cafe. You can just pretend I was joking."As soon as she said those words, Vaughn cocked his brows. He smiled meaningfully and asked, "That's it?"Molly smiled. "What? Were you expecting a follow-up?"Seeing that Vaughn was still staring at her, Molly shrugged her shoulders and continued, "I do admit that I've misunderstood you."She had an innocent expression and voice when she said those words as well.It was Vaughn's turn to be taken
Chapter 1462Vaughn was there looking for her.When he first walked in, he didn't see Molly. He even had a good look around.In the end, he found Molly in a corner.Seeing that she was squatting down with her head lowered and fully focused on the book in her hands, a smile appeared on Vaughn's face. He then slowly walked up to her.When Molly raised her head, Vaughn smiled. "What a coincidence."The corners of Molly's eyes twitched. She then forced a smile on her face and said, "Yeah, what a coincidence. How come you are always able to find me wherever I go, Vaughn?"If one listened closely, one could hear the sarcasm in her voice.Vaughn pretended not to notice. He cocked his brows and replied seriously, "It's probably fate.""Fate?" wondered Molly."Yeah, right." Molly sneered and lowered her head again to read. She didn't want to talk to Vaughn.What she didn't see was that Vaughn slowly furrowed his brows. "It's past lunchtime. Have you eaten?""No. I'm not hungry."Th
