His secret spoiled wife (Lily and Alexander)

Chapter 1285

Chapter 1285

"Lily? Lily!" Thompson called out after her a few times, but she had no intention of stopping.

Just as he was deciding if he should chase after her or not, Mike held him back. "Professor Thompson, you should give her some

tto think."

"But..." Although Thompson did not fancy Mike, Lily was long gone amidst his hesitation.

Ultimately, Thompson could only sit resentfully and glare at Mike. "Mr. Corden, you know how on edge everyone is about the

project. Are you deliberately causing trouble by pulling something like this?"

"You should be careful when you speak." Mike pushed the glasses on his nose bridge, and a faint smile appeared on his face.

"Don't forget. I'm one of the investors now and have spent money on this project. Why wouldn't | want to see results? It's just that

you're using the wrong method to try and keep her in this project."

"What do you mean?" Thompson was puzzled.

"I can more or less understand where Lily is coming from. Now that she doubts your purpose, she won't give in until she gets her

answer. If you continue to hide things from her like this, I'm afraid it'll be difficult to get her to cback and complete this

project.”

As Mike explained this, he leaned back in his seat. On the other hand, Thompson's face turned more solemn.

He had put in so much tand effort into this project. Once it was successful, it would bring significant changes to the world and

make him famous. He would leave a mark in the field of medicinal herbs.

That success was imminent. If they stopped now...

With his knowledge and experience, medicinal herbs were no issue for him. However, when it cto fragrances, that was where

he was weak.

Therefore, he needed Lily on the team if he wanted a perfect blend between medicinal herbs and commercial fragrances.

It was also because of this that he was so worried.

"Then what do you suggest?" Thompson put up his hands helplessly. "I'm sure you know the secrets of this project. However, Lily is

very persistent. | know that, but there's nothing | can do! Right now, | feel like I'm one step away from the big breakthrough. As

long as Lily returns and helps with the essences, we will succeed soon. She is our missing puzzle piece...

"I can't just kidnap her!" Upon saying this, a wry smile appeared on his face as he pinched his nose bridge before whispering,

"Besides, | don't have the ability to either"

Even if Lily did not know how to kickbox, there was no way an older man in his 60s would be able to do anything to a young

woman. On top of that, she had the entire La Beaute Group behind her. He was not stupid enough to try to start a fight with the

Russell family.

Listening to this, a mysterious smile formed on Mike's face. "Of course, you can't kidnap her. With her temperament, she probably

won't do it even if you kidnapped her!"

"Exactly!" Thompson sighed and looked at Mike. "Tell me, what should | do? If

Ultimately, this was the most important thing.

"That's easy. Tell her the truth!"

"Tell her the truth?!” Thompson's eyes widened. He thought he had misheard Mike.

"Tell her what she wants to know. Once she gets her answer, our problem is resolved."
