Chapter 1451
'That can't be Professor Thompson, so who is it?’
The first person that came to Austin's mind was Rhea. There was only a few female staff at the
institute, and he could only think of one person who loved wearing heels that would work till this hour.
'Why is she coming to look for Professor Thompson at this time?'
Austin did not know why, but he changed his mind and instantly retracted his foot into the room. Then
he closed the door and even took two steps back. Just after he did that, the woman in heels entered
the room.
There was more than one personjudging from the sound of the footsteps, and the other person's
footsteps sounded heavier.

stubborn about this. We can’t stop this project after how far we’ve come. Plus, you've seen the results
too. Do you want to see all your hard work go to waste?"
It was Rhea’s voice.
'What is she saying? What superior? What do they need to stop? Who wants to stop the experiment?'
Austin was confused and held his breath subconsciously as he continued to eavesdrop.
The two people had no idea someone else was in the room. Thompson sounded exhausted. "I do want
all my hard work to be fruitful, but my intention had always been to help people, not harm them. I don't
wish to see my research hurting anyone, and it might even be that many people.'
"Pfft...” Rhea scoffed.
Austin could not see her face now, but he could tell she found Thompson's words ridiculous.
"I guess you learned nothing from studying medicinal herbs for so many years. Don't you remember
that poisons can also be part of medicines? Plus, can you look at the bigger picture for once? This is
such a great invention! We should continue with it. We'll be famous throughout history once we
succeed!"
"I’m afraid we’ll be famous for being hideous historical figures!” Thompson smiled bitterly, obviously not
as optimistic as Rhea was.
'That's still better than leaving nothing behind. Didn't you want to achieve fame when you started this
research and experiment? Why do you care so much about how others would look at you?
"Life is so short, and we must leave something behind. Otherwise, we’ll be no different from those
peasants who no one remembers!" Rhea was still trying to convince Thompson.
Austin was beyond confused. He never knew that Rhea had such an outlook on life, but he could not

Indeed, he also wanted to be known for something good and hoped he could leave his name in history.
However, he would never want people to know him for horrible reasons because he cherished his
reputation.
He shook his head in disapproval of her words but still did not understand the relationship between
their conversation and the research.
'Why did Professor Thompson say it might harm other people?'
Suddenly, Austin thought about the project involving the wilfordi root and other poisonous herbs.
'They were all discontinued, weren’t they?’
At the time, Lily strongly opposed the research, and Austin even tried to study the experiment to go
against her. However, he gave up on it soon after. In comparison, he found it more worthy of studying
the things that would benefit the human body.
'Could it be?'
