Chapter 1366

The woman’s gaze was sharp as her eyes focused on him. Her thin lips moved, spitting out a name.

"Rhea Moore.’

’Rhea...Moore," Austin repeated after her. He ransacked his brain, attempting to match a face to that

name, but to no avail. Then he nodded. 'Are you from the research institute too? Professor Thompson

mentioned that you're in charge of another project. What is it?"

Rhea looked at him with squinted eyes. "Are you the one who will be treating my cousin?"

’Who?!" Austin was startled by her question.

'Anastasia Rollins,’ she replied, "Didn't you promise my mother?’

Only after Rhea mentioned Anastasia's name did Austin remember what had happened. "You mean

that fat—’ Just as he was about to finish his sentence, he quickly corrected himself after feeling like it

was inappropriate. "So, you're Mrs. Moore's daughter."

'Do you know how?" Rhea ignored his words and asked directly.

’Of course I do. Isn't that girl just obese? It's as hard and as easy as it can get. The important thing

here is the willingness for one to cooperate." As usual, being

ambiguous was Austin's expertise. That way, no one could know what he was insinuating.

Rhea raised her eyebrows and shifted her stance out of fatigue. With her arms still crossed before her

chest, she tilted her head and asked, ’What's the easiest solution?"

'I'll take her pulse and prescribe some traditional medicinal herbs to regulate the symptoms. Besides

her self-control, it usually has something to do with her endocrine system.

Once her metabolism is regulated, she will gradually lose weight," Austin explained.

Only after he finished talking did he realize something was wrong.

'Why am I answering her questions without hesitation? It seems like she has me on a leash.'

It was out of character for Austin to unknowingly cooperate with Rhea, like an obedient student that

answered all his teacher’s questions. Austin quickly regained his composure and widened his eyes to

keep himself fresh.

He must have been exhausted after staying up all night. That must be why he was falling into her trap.

’Ms. Moore, did your mother get you to invite me over?" He cleared his throat and asked, emphasizing

the word "invite.’

However, Rhea was unbothered by him. ’We're two different people."

'So, you—"

Austin had just spoken two words before she interjected. ’ What's your relationship with Mrs. Russell?’

This question took Austin by surprise.

’Nothing,” he subconsciously denied. He only hated how Lily always managed to be one step ahead of

him.

'Relationship? I want nothing to do with her after our encounter the other day.’

Ever since Lily silenced him with a poke at his acupressure point, he wanted nothing to do with her.

"Is there a misunderstanding?" Austin asked tentatively. After all, he had no idea if Rhea and Lily were

friends or enemies. ’Lily is also a part of our research group. Are you two friends?"

Rhea snorted. "So, that's her name."

Austin was speechless.

The two should not be friends if Rhea did not even know Lily's name. However, how could Rhea be

enemies with someone she did not know?

Rhea was more challenging to read than Lily. Austin could not figure out what she wanted. Then he

heard her ask, "Did you say she's also from our research institute?"

'Yes. Didn't Professor Thompson tell you? He admires her very much and thinks she's competent. She

came into this project earlier than me. She's very well respected here,’ Austin deliberately explained as

he studied Rhea's face.
