Chapter 1385

However, Lily went up and down but could not find Thompson. She stood before the elevator, thought

about the secretive top floor that no one could enter, and looked up. The indicator showed that the

elevator was moving down floor by floor until it stopped with a ding.

The elevator doors opened, and the one inside was not Thompson but Mike. They were stunned to see

each other in such a circumstance. Mike recovered first with a smile and greeted her casually, "Good

morning."

"Morning." Lily looked at him. "It’s still so early, Mr. Corden. Have you just come to work, or did you

work overnight here?"

Without waiting for his reply, Lily continued, "Either way, as the biggest shareholder, you're truly

dedicated, aren't you?"

The elevator doors started closing, and Mike held them open before stepping out. He looked at her and

said, "Lily, we’re old friends. There's no need to talk to me this way, is there?"

"Okay. Since we're old friends, I'd like to know why you've insisted on joining this project. Why must

you invest? Do you honestly think it has a good prospect? What is the real purpose of this

experiment?" Lily was curious.

Mike had always wanted to join the project right from the start. She thought he had given up when he

stopped mentioning it and did not expect him to make a direct investment and become the majority

shareholder instead.

Lily also did not know who Mike had dealt with. She had dealt directly with Thompson since the project

began; the major funder was La Beaute Group. Mike had joined after Alexander's company pulled out

from the project. She believed there was someone behind Thompson, but she did not know who the

person was and what they wanted to do.

Thompson never revealed the person’s identity to her. All the secrecy and suspicious activities made

her wonder that the project and the experiment were not as simple as they had told her. Everything

about the research was to prepare for applying those poisonous plants.

Mike stood there looking at Lily with his hands in his pockets, his smile unchanging. 'Well, you know

much more about the experiment. You've been here longer than me and are much more involved in the

project. As someone who knows it best, tell me what the final purpose of the experiment is. How is its

prospect?"

Businessmen like Mike were good at hedging, and he quickly threw the questions back at her.

Lily frowned and said, "Mike, we’ve known each other for so long, and you said so yourself that you're

a friend. Is this how you patronize people? If you don't wish to tell me or can't, then don't. We don't

have to go around in circles."

Mike held up his hands as if surrendering and said, "My apologies, but that’s not what I meant. I don't

know much about medicinal herbs and raw materials. I'm a businessman and only care about whether

it would make money. I think this medical project has a good future, so I invested. Also, I believe in your

capabilities. It’s just as simple as that."

"As simple as that, huh?" Lily was doubtful.

Even though he sounded earnest, she felt something was not right.

"You didn’t wonder why Alex would pull out of the project if it has such a good prospect? Or why La

Beaute Group stopped investing until you got the chance to take over?" she asked earnestly.
