Chapter 1468
"So, in your eyes, your cousin is just another lab rat?" Austin questioned.
However, Rhea was quick to retaliate. "It's an honor for her to be my lab rat! If it weren't for her father,
she would be nothing compared to me!"
Although her words were disdainful, Austin picked up a trace of...jealousy?
It seemed like Rhea was highly jealous of her cousin. She was envious and full of resentment. Her tone
differed from her usual ridicule and lightness. She was almost speaking through gritted teeth.
'She hates Anastasia!'
"Are you jealous of your cousin?" Austin asked as an idea popped into his head.
"Jealous?!" Rhea's tone went an octave higher. She stomped back into the basement and bent down to
reach for his collar. "I am smarter than her, more beautiful than her, have a better figure than her, and
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtam more capable than her.
'Tm better than her in every aspect, and I’m a hundred times better at that! Why would I be jealous of
her?! Have you lost your mind?!"
"It's because...” Austin dragged on. The madness in Rhea's reaction confirmed his assumption. "It’s
because she comes from a better family, no?"
He remembered that Anastasia's father was a Secretary, but he had also been to Rhea's house. It
seemed cozy. He had no idea why Rhea would be jealous of Anastasia. However, Rhea would not
have reacted this way if she wasn't jealous. Also, she would not have poisoned her cousin for more
than ten years.
"Hah!" Rhea sneered and let Austin go. Then she coldly said, "Her mother
died when she was a child, and her father is always busy with work. Tasia was at my house almost
every day when she was younger. How can she come from a better family?
"You don't know anything! All you are is a scammer who cheats and sells under the pretense of a
miracle doctor!" She sarcastically added, "There's no point in explaining all this to you. You have no
clue about actual medication!"
"I'm a liar, and you're crazy. Aren't we two peas in a pod? However, I know my limits, and humans are
not rats. We practice medicine to help others, not harm them!" Austin said.
Upon hearing that, Rhea turned to leave. This time, she did not look back. She stomped away and
locked the door behind her. Just like that, the place fell into silence again.
Austin felt like he was about to die. That little skirmish used up almost all of his energy. At this moment,
a bloody taste rushed up his throat. It tasted almost like rust, and he immediately threw up. However,
nothing came out.
He could probably only live for another two days without water. No, he could not even make it to the
second day.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNo one knew he had disappeared, and no one cared about him. At this moment, he began to reflect on
his life. He had always thought he was better than others and respected by all. However, it was just all
in his head. No one would even realize he was going to die.
He fumbled around in his pockets again and found nothing new. With his phone taken away, he had no
escape. He regretted not carrying some snacks with him.
As he thought of this, he took out the vial, thinking of the moment he successfully made it. He still
remembered the excitement and joy he felt. He could not wait to share it with Thompson.
Who would have thought this was just child's play compared to what the others were doing? No one
cared about his tiny accomplishment at all.
Then there was Lily, whom Austin had been competing with all this time. All he wanted to do was be
better than her, but she did not even bat an eyelid. He looked like a complete clown.
'Was this the reason behind Lily's withdrawal and why she wanted to destroy the data in the lab?
Yet, here he was, thinking he had done something by restoring the data. He even wanted to brag to Lily
that he would finally succeed and overthrow her. It was ridiculous to even think about it.
