Chapter 649
“What’s wrong?” Although Alexander looked calm, his expression showed relief after seeing that Lily was
safe and sound. “Are you all right?”
Lily shook her head, “I accidentally spilled something.”
“It doesn’t matter as long as you are fine.” Alexander glanced at the spilled liquid and said to the person
waiting for orders at the door, “Call someone to clean up, and be careful.”
After a pause, he looked at Lily again. “Is there anything you need to take away before they clean this
up?”
“Here.” Lily held two small bottles in her hands, which seemed ready.
“Can we go then?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLily nodded. She was already tired. After all, they had suffered all day, and experimenting for a long time
was exhausting.
The branch manager never expected Mr. Russell to come here. He neither inspected nor wanted them to
report their work–instead, he only used the laboratory and left.
“If you don’t like it, we don’t have to go back to the Lodge family residence today,” Alexander said when
he got into the car.
They said not to leave Sapphine, but as long as he wanted to, no one could stop him.
It was just that they were clear that they still stayed in Sapphine and at the Lodge family residence, not
because she was trapped there, but because she must find out the truth and prove her innocence.
“No, let’s go back there.” Lily shook her head. She rested her head on Alexander’s shoulder and felt
extremely at ease with him around. “Even if we sleep elsewhere today, we won’t get a good night’s
sleep.”
If Henry got some incredible “evidence,” won’t he be eager to use it against them?
The car swayed gently, and it made Lily feel drowsy. She picked up the phone and glanced at the time.
Just as she was about to put it down dazedly, she remembered something and picked it up again to open
the web browser app.
Unsurprisingly, the news of her grandfather’s death was everywhere, occupying most of the pages.
The most interesting part was the focus of the news was not simply on the death but on why the news of
the death came out after Wilfred had passed away for several days. It was reported. that someone who
was not a Lodge family member had released the news.
Why did the Lodge family hide it? Was there any secret hidden in it? A busybody would never lack the
curiosity to gossip.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmFlicking her fingers up and down, Lily browsed the web. She guessed someone would lose their temper
soon.
After a few minutes of reading, someone called. The number was unfamiliar. After all, Lily only stored a
few numbers on her mobile phone “Hello?”
“Lily, where are you?” The voice was thick. It turned out to be Jonathan.
Unexpectedly, he called Lily.
“On our way back.” Lily smiled slightly. Her voice sounded lazy and tired. “What’s the matter, Granduncle
Jonathan?”
Hearing that she was already coming back, Jonathan did not continue to say anything. After some
silence, he said, “It’s nothing. Let’s talk when you get back.”
