NovelOnlineChapter 1935
Lily was not upset nor behaving recklessly.
The truth was that she had already succeeded but had not told anyone about it.
She finally successfully created the latest batch of experimental products just two days ago.
As the success was recent and she was uncertain of how stable the drug was—coupled with the fact that she did not want to hand
it to the organization—she did not reveal it to anyone, including Mike.
However, Rick's attitude today puzzled her.
The man gave the ultimatum as if he knew the experiment had succeeded.
‘haven't told anyone, so how did Rick find out? Did he simply givean ultimatum without knowing about it?’ She noticed Mike's
confusion and curled her lips into a half- smile.
"I mean, I'll give my all to the experiment today.There is still a batch of experimental products, so I'll know the result tomorrow.As
he said, all he wants is the outcome, whether or not it works."

"But if you fail..."
"If | fail, he can just kill me."She shrugged and smiled casually.
"That's the worst he could do."
"l won't let him!"
Mike said solemnly, "lI won't let anything happen to you as long as I'm alive."
That was his promise to Alexander, and he was determined to keep it.
"Relax, okay? I'm not going to die so easily!"
Lily smiled, unfazed.
She did not tell Mike the experiment had succeeded because she thought the best way to keep a secret was not to tell anyone
about it.
Simultaneously, he would be safer if he did not know about it.
After all, the more Mike knew, the more dangerous things would get for him, especially in a place like the organization.
"Lily..."
Mike could not help but call out her nguiltily.
"I'm sorry for dragging you into this."
Lily shook her head.
"No, we all got dragged into this, so you shouldn't blyourself.You should already know there's no escaping if they target
us.Take Nick, for example.He’s young and has done nothing wrong, yet they still target him.So don't shoulder any unnecessary
blame, okay?"
Indeed, there was no reason for Mike to blhimself for what had happened.He let out a quiet sigh and nodded.
"The more | spend twith you, the more | understand why Alex fell for you."
Mike had known Alexander for a long time, and as far as he knew, Alexander was never attracted to anyone, even though many
beautiful women threw themselves at him.
Therefore, Mike was astonished to learn about his sudden marriage and was curious about the woman who managed to charm him.
When he later met Lily in Westwood, he did not think much of her, although she was beautiful.

After all, there were many beautiful women with different styles, and as Lily was not Mike's type, he did not think she was
Alexander's either.
However, he discovered Lily had a unique charm after getting to know her better.
Lily was intelligent, decisive, and calm.
Mike was often no match for her.
‘Sure enough, Alex has good judgment and is much better thanat doing business and judging a woman"
"Thank you for your compliment."
Lily inclined her head slightly.
"However, it's not the tfor small talk."
"Yes,"
Mike said solemnly, "Since they've abandoned the boss, | doubt they would take much action for him.l guess the organization
already knows we did it but hadn't exposed us because we're more useful than the boss now."
