Chapter 1367

On the surface, it sounded like Austin was praising Lily. However, he had a feeling that the woman

before him was not someone that a few simple praises would sway.

Her attitude was a prime example of that. Others who saw him as Dominic's secret apprentice

approached him respectfully and politely. Rhea knew that her mother was begging for his help, yet she

did not even consider his presence. There was no sense of respect from her. It even seemed like she

was a little cocky.

Austin had met many people over the years, and Rhea seemed similar to him-conceited.

People who could work in this research institute and have a close relationship with Thompson must be

capable. Those who were capable were typically arrogant, especially youngsters. If she heard that Lily

was more respected than her in this research institute, Rhea would turn green with envy.

Sure enough, a cold smile appeared on her face. "Very capable?”

"Yeah. It's a pity you're not on the same project. Otherwise, there might be things you can learn from

Mrs. Russell,' Austin said smilingly, adding fuel to the fire.

Rhea shot him a glance and said, "Aren't you on the same team as her? You must've learned a lot,

then.”

He was speechless, and the smile on his face froze instantly. Rhea's insipid sentence quickly

diminished his burning flame. Austin let out a stoic laugh and said, 'We've learned from each other!"

He would never admit he wanted to learn from Lily. She did not deserve it.

With that, Rhea straightened up and turned to leave. It seemed like she was done with the

conversation. After taking a few steps, she turned around. "By the way, many have tried to help my

cousin, but it never worked. If you want to maintain your reputation, it's best to leave her alone! •

Then with a scornful smile, she turned around and left.

’Hey!1' Austin opened his mouth to retort, but Rhea had already walked away. Suddenly, he felt the

surrounding air tighten, and he began to choke.

He knew she was trying to provoke him, which was her way of getting him to see Anastasia. Otherwise,

it would mean he was not confident in his strength.

Lily had been absent from the laboratory for the past two days. Her days spent at home made her feel

unsettled. The only time she could relax was when she played with her son. Other times, she felt

restless, like the raging sea. It had been a while since she had felt this way.

Alexander had arrived safely, but after telling Lily that he had landed, she did not hear from him

anymore. There wasn't even a simple text from him. She had tried texting him to ask whether he had

resolved the matter, but he did not reply.

This worried her as she began to pay extra attention to the news revolving around Burnwken over the

past two days. After all, it was a chaotic country. She was afraid something terrible might happen.

As this thought flashed across Lily’s mind, she shook her head vigorously. She did not want to think

about it.

'Bah! Enough negative thoughts! Of course, nothing will happen. He's such a smart and capable man.

It's not like he hadn't experienced big cities before. I know he'll come home safe and sound.*

'Lily? Lily!" Olivia called out twice before Lily returned to her senses.

'What?"

'You...' Olivia's gaze dropped as she pointed to Lily's hand. Lily followed Olivia's gaze and lowered her

head, only to find that all the liquid in the dropper she held had leaked out.

Lily hurriedly put the dropper down and got a cloth to wipe her hand. After that, she put the test tube

aside, only for it to fall to the ground with a crisp crack.
