Cameron was strict about Anastasia’s diet, but he still encouraged her to socialize and hoped she would have friends. However,
Anastasia was always reluctant to do so, perhaps due to her low self-esteem.
Alexander was speechless. ‘It turns out Lily just wants to use my nto do something, and she even said she didn't needat
first! I'm still useless, even more so than that punk.”
He turned to look at Galen, who returned a bright smile as if to mock him for being useless to his wife when he was such an
influential man in the business world. Alexander just stared at him. ‘What are you laughing at? You're just a tool!
Lily did not realize the eye contact between the two and assumed that Alexander had agreed to her request. ‘That's settled then. If
Secretary Rollins asks about it next time, just tell him what | said earlier.”

“Okay...” Alexander hummed, slightly upset.
Maria had waited outside the institute for two days but caught no sight of Austin. It made her doubt herself. ‘Did | get the wrong
message? That's impossible! Did Austin not chere at all? That seems possible! After all, he's the miracle doctor. It's good
enough for them that he frequents them occasionally to give them sadvice. Why would he chere daily on tlike a
white collar?”
That thought made Maria feel dumb at this moment. After staying here for two days, her complexion did not look well.
She could have gotten her subordinates to cand watch over the place while she rested at home, but she had no choice
because she wanted to show Austin her sincerity.
Since she did not get any good sleep and stayed in the car for the past two days, she looked slightly swollen, and anyone could tell
she was exhausted. Just as she contemplated whether or not she should give up, she saw Austin exiting through the institute door.
‘He's inside? When did he get in? | didn't see him. I've been here for two days and didn't see him."
Maria was stunned but did not know that Austin had not left the institute in the past two days. He slept and had his meals in there,
so it was natural that she could not meet him by staying outside the building.
Austin was not faring much better than her, either. Once he left Dominic's place, he immediately headed for the institute, swearing
to solve the problem by himself.

However, two days passed, and he cout of the institute looking dejected. He promised Thompson he would succeed. If he did
not, it meant Lily was better than him. Austin could not accept losing to an outsider of the industry, who was even a woman.
Frustrated, he planned to return hto get srest and clear his head. After cooping up in the institute for so long, he felt like
his brain was not functioning anymore.
He had parked his car at the parking lot outside the institute, and just as he stepped foot in there, he heard hurried footsteps
behind him. The pair of high heels clicked against the cemented floor, adding to his headache from the lack of sleep.
Subconsciously, he looked over, only to feel a gush of wind blowing against him, followed by a panting woman as she rushed to
speak
. "Mr. Fike. Mr. Fike...”
Before Austin could make sense of the situation, he saw a figure running toward him. The woman was going to reach him, but at
her last step, she twisted her ankle and staggered at a distance close to him. Then the woman pondered on him-no, she crashed
into him.
