Chapter 1519
"How would we know if the research hasn't succeeded yet? Maybe you're heading in the wrong
direction." Rhea said it meaningfully.
The elevator dinged as it reached the floor. Lily no longer responded to her words. As the elevator
doors opened, she wanted to step out but found someone blocking their way.
"Mike?" Lily was stunned.
Seeing him, Rhea knitted her brow. "Mike, what are you up to again?"
"Mrs. Russell no longer works in the lab and shouldn't come here." Not answering Rhea, Mike looked
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtat Lily and said, emphasizing each word.
Holding back her anger, Lily looked at him. "I’m here to pick up what I left behind. Is it not allowed, Mr.
Corden?"
She stressed his last name on purpose. ‘What is Mike up to? He keeps getting in my way.'
"What have you left behind?" Mike's gaze showed no emotions. 'You won't be able to find anything that
belongs to you here, and you shouldn't be here either. Tell me what you left behind, and I’ll get
someone to return it to you. Please leave now, Mrs. Russell."
'He's ordering me to leave. What a cold person! He truly goes by the book, doesn't he?'
"Mrs. Russell is hereto see me, and I've invited her to visit my workplace. You can talk to me if you
have a problem with it." To Lily’s surprise, Rhea tried to help her.
Lily threw a glance at her over the shoulder and narrowed her eyes.
Then Mike looked at Rhea and said bluntly, "Rhea, the research institute is an important place. How
could you just bring anyone here? Let alone the workplace! Are you so ignorant of it that I need to
remind you?"
"Mrs. Russell is not an outsider and is a founding member of the project. What secrets would we be
hiding from her?” Rhea curled her lips into a dismissive smile.
Lily felt her smile was laden with meaning.
"Since Mrs. Russell already quit, she's no longer one of us and shouldn't step foot in here ever again.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAs the biggest shareholder, I have the right to decide." Straightening his back, he refused to move
aside. "Mrs. Russell, we're friends after all. I hope you won't make a scene here."
'In other words, leave, or I'll get someone to throw you out!'
"Mike! Don't think you’re someone important just because you funded the experiment. You don’t make
the decisions!" Somewhat angry, Rhea stared at him and said so, then held Lily's wrist. "Today, I'm
bringing her to visit my workplace, and I dare you to stop me!'
Lily was caught off guard and dragged along by the woman, who had not expected her to act so
abruptly.
Mike quickly stepped sideways and blocked their path. Angry, Rhea tried to shove him off, but he
grasped her hand instead. "I won't let any outsiders set foot here today!"
They were caught in a stand-off. Seeing the two glaring at each other, Lily steadied herself and raised
her voice, "Enough!"
