Chapter 1381

“Well…” Thompson was at a loss as the research on wilfordi roots had halted. He looked at Mike Corden, who sat beside him. Mike was present at the two recent meetings, and Thompson could tell his boss thought highly of Mike.Crossing his legs, Mike lowered his gaze while holding a cigarette and did not meet his eyes.Helpless, Thompson looked back at his boss. “Sir, about wilfordi roots and other herbs with stronger toxicity-”“I’ve found a capable person to experiment with those herbs. I believe it’ll succeed soon,” Mike suddenly said, looking ahead with his eyelids lifted.Thompson was stunned. Knowing nothing about this, he looked toward Mike in astonishment. “You found someone else? Who’s the person? How come I was unaware?”“Professor Thompson, you should just focus on your research. You’re too unadventurous, and this job isn’t for you. Just leave it alone.” Mike snuffed out his cigarette and frowned a little while blowing smoke out of his nose.In other words, he was asking

At this point, the office door swung open, and someone stepped inside from the outside. “Professor Thompson.”“It’s you?” Thompson looked shocked. “You…”“Why? Am I not welcome?” She came over with a half-smile on her face. However, one might think her smile was rather chilling.“No, but when were you…” Looking at her, Thompson was bewildered.Having returned from overseas, Rhea Moore was in charge of another research program at the institute, and he knew her, too. However, he had not expected that she would be involved in his project. “I’ve joined the research much earlier than you'd imagined, Professor Thompson,” Rhea said, then walked over to the seat before Mr. R and sat down, not showing the slightest qualm. “She…” Thompson looked toward Mr. R and then at Mike. It seemed that they all knew except him. Suddenly, Thompson felt he had been kept in the dark and was upset. “I was the one who proposed the program, and I’ve worked hard for it. You should at least consult me on

Thompson did not know much about perfumery. He was only aware that Lily was the leading person in the industry over the past two years and was also internationally well-known.After learning of Rhea’s impressive background, he looked her up and down in surprise. “Rhea, why haven’t you mentioned it before?”“It isn’t worth mentioning.” She let out a casual smile and did not seem to care much about her fame.Thompson was speechless.“So, what do you think, Professor Thompson? Am I qualified to join the project?” Rhea raised her head and asked.“You’re qualified, but—”“Has Lily brainwashed you?” Mr. R, who had remained quiet, spoke impatiently. “You keep coming up with excuses. Let someone take over if you think you can’t do it!”“No, no, I can!” Thompson said hurriedly, “I have no problem with it. I wish for the experiment to succeed too! Rhea, you…”“Rhea will be in charge of the experiment you’ve failed to handle!” The masked man said, “In the future, you must listen to her on

Chapter 1384

Austin was eager to show off his achievement for the past two days and perked up after seeing Lily now.“You’re early today. I thought you didn’t dare to return after succeeding one time by a fluke.” Austin clicked his tongue. “You have no idea, do you? I’m going to pull off what you’ve failed to do after researching for so long. I’ll surpass you in no time!”Lily did not bother to argue with him and was not interested in senseless comparisons like this. “Where’s Professor Thompson?”“It’s still so early. I think Professor Thompson should still be in bed.” Indeed, Austin had not seen the older man. More accurately, there were few people in the research institute so early in the morning. Besides the ones working the night shift, he believed that few were so dedicated and would work overnight like him.He glanced around himself and said, “Don’t change the subject! I know you surely don’t believe I can pull it off, but I’m going to show you my true capabilities using facts!”“You did

However, Lily went up and down but could not find Thompson. She stood before the elevator, thought about the secretive top floor that no one could enter, and looked up. The indicator showed that the elevator was moving down floor by floor until it stopped with a ding.The elevator doors opened, and the one inside was not Thompson but Mike. They were stunned to see each other in such a circumstance. Mike recovered first with a smile and greeted her casually, “Good morning.”“Morning.” Lily looked at him. “It’s still so early, Mr. Corden. Have you just come to work, or did you work overnight here?”“I…”Without waiting for his reply, Lily continued, “Either way, as the biggest shareholder, you’re truly dedicated, aren’t you?”The elevator doors started closing, and Mike held them open before stepping out. He looked at her and said, “Lily, we’re old friends. There’s no need to talk to me this way, is there?”“Okay. Since we’re old friends, I’d like to know why you’ve insisted on joi

“Yes, why?” Mike inquired innocently, spreading his arms.Lily was speechless.Balling her hands into fists, Lily curled her lips. “As you said, you’re a businessman, and you only care about if you can make money. I can’t answer this question, and you should consider why La Beauté Group would pull out of the project. Do you truly want to be involved in this?”Looking at her, Mike smiled without a word. His gaze was unfathomable, and his smile was just a front. There was no way to tell what he was thinking.Lily had no idea why he was doing this, but it was clear that he either did not want to tell her or could not.“Since you’ve come from upstairs, can you tell me if Professor Thomson is there?” She took a deep breath and changed the subject. She pointed her chin upward, knowing that the place was out of bounds for her.He followed the direction her chin was pointing, then nodded. “He should be coming down soon. He still has something to attend to.”“Besides Professor Thompson a

Mike was surprised. “As you said, even if I go over there, there is nothing I can do. He has his things to do, and I have mine. Since Professor Thompson is upstairs, he should be coming down soon. I’ll wait for him.” She turned and went downstairs. The grin on his face faded and his expression became serious as he stared after her. Shaking his head, he let out an almost inaudible sigh. Lily was indeed worried about Alexander, but she also knew it was of no use. Besides, she had a lot of work to do. Her son needed her, and if both of his parents were away, he most likely would not get used to it and would become scared. Entering the lab, Lily did not experiment. Instead, she sat down before the laptop to start sorting and compiling the data, starting with the ones she had gathered from her first experiment.She had sorted the data before, but it was a bit messy as she had done it separately for several groups. Now that she had put everything together, she saw that her most r

“Lily, don’t get so worked up. I’m asking you to take a break not because we don’t need you but because you’ve done a lot. With your success, I believe things will get easier from now on. You’ve undoubtedly contributed a great deal, and we’ll never write you off!”Thompson thought she was angry at being kicked out of the project and hurriedly explained. However, Lily just shook her head. “Professor, whether you’re keeping me here or not, you must stop the experiment. If you continue with it, it won’t bring any good to mankind.” “No, it will certainly bring changes!” Although he once doubted himself, Thompson was still hopeful about his initial idea. “I believe it would surely succeed, although we’re still at the experimental stage. Do you know that every success is built on countless failures? You pulled it off, didn’t you? “Did you know that your finished products got an anorexic child to eat something? We've just placed a pot of flowers by his bed, along with a few drops of es

“We’ve all worked hard for this. You have no right to delete the data!” Thompson wanted to grab the laptop from Lily, but he was no match for her. Their fight over the laptop drew others over.“Professor Thompson? What are you doing?”“Hurry, grab the laptop! She’s trying to destroy the lab data!” Thompson hurriedly asked the others to help.The others were hesitant at first, but after hearing what he had said, they charged over to help him. Lily noticed a lot of people swarming over and held up the laptop. Then she smashed it heavily on the floor with a thud.Everyone was stunned when they saw the laptop breaking into pieces. A dead silence ensued. They hardly knew how to react since they did not know what was happening.Everyone in the lab had looked up to Lily since Thompson had always asked them to listen to her. However, the two got into a fight, and Lily even smashed the laptop to destroy the data.“Y-You’re…” After about ten seconds of silence, Thompson sank to his knees a

“Austin, heed my advice. Don’t continue with the experiment.” Lily looked at him and continued, “I know you want to compete with me, but you don’t have to do it here. This experiment shouldn’t…”“Enough!” Austin cut her off and chuckled coldly. “Who do you think you are? Why do I want to compete with you? I think the experiment is meaningful and should continue. If you don’t want to do it, you can leave, and no one will stop you. Why destroy all the data? Who the hell do you think you are?”Lily did not know what to say. ‘It looks like I can’t convince them. Pig-headed people won’t listen to anything we say.’She walked over and stood before them. Staring at the stern-looking Austin and the grieving Thompson, she said blandly, “I’m nobody, but what I’ve destroyed is data I’ve personally gathered through the experiment. Since I created them, so what if I destroyed them myself?”She turned and left while others whispered among themselves, clueless of what happened and why Thompson an
