Chapter 1376
"How do you know Lily is not treating you as an experimentation tool herself?"
Austin smiled meaningfully and took out a pen and a piece of paper. Then he lowered his head to write
as he spoke casually, "I don't mind you knowing that she and I are conducting research at the same
lab.
"She might know a little bit about alternative medicine and medicinal herbs. Of course, she is mainly a
perfumer and might have obtained some knowledge of alternative medicine through self-learning."
He paused and looked up at Anastasia. "Still, you guys should understand that those who self-learn
lack practical experience. Whenever there’s a chance, they’d jump at it."
Enlightened by him, Maria looked at Anastasia and said, "Tasia, she's using you as a guinea pig!"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAnastasia could hardly speak for a moment. What Austin said had somehow unsettled her.
She wanted to tell herself that what he said was false and that Lily would never treat her as a guinea
pig.
'If that is the case, how come Lily always says she's not trying to help me slim down and doesn't know
how to cure people, even though she's helping me adjust my diet plan? If she had truly learned about
herbal medicine, even by teaching herself, she could've just told me, couldn't she?'
"I know you're a good friend to her, and you might not believe me. You can ask her to see if what I said
is true." Putting his pen into his pocket, he let out a half-smile and did not seem to worry about being
proved wrong." Here’s the prescription. You decide whether to try it or not. It's your choice if you don't
want to believe me.
"As you said, it's your body and health. If you don't wish to become my tool of experimentation, why
should you become someone else's?” Austin got up. "I've said all I have to say. It's up to you to decide
what to do."
He headed toward the door.
Taken aback, Maria hurriedly chased after him. "Mr. Fike, we believe you! Of course, we believe you!
What should we do next?"
"If she's willing to take medicine according to the prescription, I'll come back ten days later to take her
pulse." He looked back and saw Anastasia sitting there in a daze with her back to him.
She was overwhelmed by what he said.
"Yes, we’ll surely follow your instructions," Maria quickly answered, and she attentively saw him off.
Sitting on the sofa, Anastasia kept thinking about what Austin said-that Lily had taught herself herbal
medicine and that, lacking practical experience, she would jump at any opportunity to experiment on

Lily was double-checking a recipe. She was not an expert in cooking, but she had learned to read
recipes for Anastasia.
It was easy to look for weight-loss-friendly food, and all Lily needed to do was let the cooks in her
house choose the right ingredients and prepare the meals according to these recipes. However,
considering Anastasia's preference and what she did not like to eat, Lily always picked food that was
not only suitable but would also please her.
However, what mattered most was not the recipes or the menu. The challenging part was tackling the
complex toxicity that Anastasia had in her.
'Yes, she's poisoned!'
At first, Lily was doubtful as the symptoms were mild. She had unintentionally learned about it when
she took Anastasia's pulse. If Lily's guess was correct, the poisoning had something to do with the
plants in Anastasia’s house.
