Chapter 1221

Tm not thinking of other men. I'm thinking about something serious!

Lily knitted her brow and continued, "Don't you think he seemed a bit strange today? He didn't talk

about Blossom and only touched on the order and the deal when we brought it up. Also, Nicky didn't

come today."

"Didn't he say the boy has to study?" Alexander thought nothing of it.

"Don't forget that Nick takes one-on-one classes and his private teacher follows him around. How could

he fall behind on his schoolwork? Also, when has Mike ever forgotten to bring him along whenever he

comes here? Nick loves playing with Galen!"

'There seems to be something fishy about it indeed.’

Alexander nodded but grew upset when he heard the last part. "What do you mean he enjoys playing

with my son? Is Galen a toy?”

Lily suppressed a smile.

Indeed, Nick was good to Galen. He thought about Galen whenever there was anything delicious to eat

and fun to play with, but he could be pretty competitive while having fun. Nevertheless, Galen enjoyed

playing with the older boy.

Since they were on the topic and Alexander grew accustomed to making thoughtful decisions, he

spoke after mulling it over, "Mike's business has done quite well over the past two years, and he's

always been a good businessman.

"Perhaps he didn't talk about Blossom again because he knew there was no possibility of being a part

of it for now, and he simply gave up."

"Probably.” However, Lily did not feel that Mike would give up so quickly. Still, she couldn't come up

with other possible reasons.

"So, how's your 'secret weapon’ progressing?" Alexander lifted a brow and asked, full of interest.

He had given Lily full support in money and workforce. He also never interfered with her decisions and

whatever she wanted to do. He did his best to give her free rein and only involved himself when she

sought to discuss something she could not solve.

Blossom was a project Lily had been most careful with and nervous about ever since Alexander knew

her.

"I’ve put it aside." Lily let out a sad sigh as the glow in her eyes dimmed.

It had troubled her lately. As the two collaborating parties could not see eye to eye, she still needed to

figure out how they could move forward. More accurately, she was thinking about whether to carry on

with it.

"Put it aside?" Surprised, Alexander propped his head with a hand and half lifted himself.

He could tell from Lily's expression that she was having a difficult time, but if Mike did not come that

evening and prompted her to mention it, she did not plan to tell him.

Alexander suddenly felt awake while Lily sat up to face him and told him seriously about the new

project’s details for the first time.

"As you know, this project collaborates with a research institute based in Bymonte. The raw materials

include the spices I've specified and what they have provided. Adding new materials makes it natural to

try many times to get the scent I want, but..."

After a pause, she cocked her head while slightly knitting her brows, somewhat troubled.

"You can’t get the scent you want?" Alexander took a guess.

Lily shook her head and said, "No! I initially thought they only wanted an essential oil they could use for

medicinal purposes, but I didn’t know for what specifically. However, after communicating with them a

few times, I think their intention is not as simple as they've told me."

"What do you think they want to do with it?"

"I’m not sure!” That was what troubled her the most. "I tried to probe, but they didn't reveal anything.

They only said the result was not ideal and asked me to try again with a heavier dosage.

"From the get-go, I wondered why they would look for me if all they cared about were the medicinal

effect, not the scent. They could have done it by conducting their research within their field, and yet

they refused to stop collaborating with me.”

Alexander became thoughtful. "Perhaps they want to use the scent as a cover to do something?"

"I have no idea. I've dabbled in herbal medicines, but I’m not an expert. Anyway, I’ve been wondering if

I should continue with the collaboration.

Although it's a new experience, I’m a bit scared."
