Chapter 1275

Thompson also spoke bluntly, ‘You're not a professional, so you might not understand. The experiment

may not sound complicated, but it requires excellent skills. Besides, even an ordinary product requires

multiple experiences to succeed. Of course, an opportunistic businessman like you would not

understand how hard it is."

The one who spoke to Thompson before this was Mike Corden. Mike was wearing his business suit as

he lounged on the sofa with a cigar.

After listening to Thompson, he narrowed his eyes, held up his cigar, and tapped off its ash. "If I

remember correctly, Professor Thompson, you told us that La Beauté Group has withdrawn their

funding.

"Without opportunistic businessmen like me, you won't be able to continue your experiment, no matter

how great it is!"

He was undiplomatic, knowing that without La Beauté Group, the project would not have the money to

continue unless they could find a new funding source. Moreover, they did not want the experiment to

stop.

'You-" Faced with such an insult, Thompson lost his temper.

"Enough," said a man in an executive chair with his back to them. His low voice sounded somewhat

husky and odd. "We're here because we share the same goal. What's the point of quarreling over such

a trivial matter?"

"Mr. Corden, we need your funding, but don’t forget that you're the one who came to US and asked to

collaborate! Also, you're not doing charity. You have your needs, and we have ours. We're on the same

boat!”

Mike raised his brow but did not retort.

As Thompson glared at him, he heard his name mentioned. "Mr. Corden is right, Professor Thompson.

The experiment has gone on for so long with so much money. We even poured in more workforce, yet

you’re telling me we haven't succeeded yet?"

His last few words were grave, and one could sense his anger without seeing his face.

Sweat streaked down Thompson's face. "Sir, I..."

"You were the one who came up with the idea. Considering that you're a gifted talent, I put you wholly

in charge of the matter, but look at what you've achieved."

He continued icily, 'The experiment has not only failed to reach its goal but has lost La Beauté Group's

support. Even Lily Christian is backing out. Is our institute a place where she can come and go as she

wishes?"

Mike stared at his cigar and remained quiet as if deep in thought.

Sitting beside Mike, Thompson wiped his sweat. "Sir, I tried to dissuade Lily, but she seemed to have

noticed something and insisted on backing out. She also made a few attempts to probe. I worry that..."

"Worry about what?"

"I worry she has already discovered the experiment's true purpose, which is why she refuses to carry

on. I thought she was just a perfumer and knew nothing about herbal medicine, but I discovered that

she wasn’t entirely clueless about it. She was even quite precise in determining the medicine's

dosage."

"She learned this before?"

Thompson shook his head. "No, I've checked. She did learn a lot, but she has never systematically

acquired knowledge about herbal medicine. She couldn’t have achieved such a level through self-

learning."

His employer let out the slightest snort and said grimly, "Useless fool!"
