Chapter 1295
Alexander doted on children very much, so the playroom was a combination of two rooms, making it
very spacious. He covered half the room in play mats while the rest was carpeted. This way, he felt
more at ease when his children played here.
Once they entered the playroom, Alexander put Galen down to let him run off to play. Unexpectedly, the
little guy turned around and ran toward Lily as soon as his feet touched the ground.
"Mommy! Hug, hug!" He opened his tiny arms and shook them, making Lily unable to refuse.
"No!" Alexander stretched out his arms, blocking the two mother and son. ’ You're still pregnant. You
can't lift him."
However, the little boy did not understand. All he knew was that his father would not let him hug his
mother. Instantly, Galen pouted and said aggrievedly, "Daddy, bad!"
His father was a supervillain in his eyes.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Hm?" Lily raised her eyebrow and looked at Alexander threateningly. At the same time, Galen opened
his mouth and began to wail.
The combination of these two defeated Alexander.
"Look at what you did! Why can't you talk nicely to the child?" Lily pushed Alexander away helplessly
and pulled Galen into her arms. She took advantage of the opportunity to sit down. "Don't cry,
sweetheart. Daddy is just worried that Mommy might be tired. Mommy has a baby in her tummy, so I
can't carry you, but I still love you very much!"
Galen nodded with tears still brimming in his eyes, seeming to understand.
Alexander sighed and rubbed his brows. Even after all the hardships he had gone through, he always
had to give in to his son. At this point, he did not know how to continue the conversation from the car.
Lily seemed to notice his helplessness and casually threw a toy ball into the distance. "Go play with
your ball."
Surprisingly, the ball attracted the little boy, and he chased after it. Alexander was speechless at this
scene.
"You said that Mike went to see you today?" Lily turned and got straight to the point.
With a light cough, Alexander, who was still watching his son chase the ball, nodded in response. "Mike
said he plans to develop here over the next two years. He was very optimistic about the project and
asked why I pulled out."
’Then what did you tell him?" She asked.
"I told him that the prospects don’t look good."
’Did he believe you?"
Alexander shook his head. "Nope."
That made sense. Why would Mike believe just a few words from someone else? However, there was
no way for them to tell him that something fishy was going on with the project. Besides, he might not
believe them.
'Why is he so obsessed with this project? I always thought it was because he didn't understand the
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmmarket." That had tormented Lily for a long time. ’ Now that he's a part of it, I'm sure he knows
something."
"Maybe he genuinely thinks this project is promising." Alexander did not quite understand Mike's
thoughts, either.
As far as the overall global economy was concerned, the world was going through an economic crisis.
At this moment, everyone wanted to try and seize an upcoming industry and be a step ahead of others.
Over the past two years, pharmaceuticals had been the uprising industry besides the energy sector.
However, this project was not traditional medical research.
Medicinal herbs had never had much of a place in the world. With the addition of fragrances, ordinary
people would see it as more of a gimmick than for it to have any practical significance. After Lily’s
detailed explanation, Alexander understood the real meaning behind conducting the experiment and
the expectation of future results.
