Chapter 1492
Austin had no idea who Rhea was talking about when someone suddenly popped up in his mind. 'Lily!
No one would know any loopholes around here unless they worked here. The only person who knew
them and would come to save me is her.'
With that in mind, he struggled desperately as his muffled screams filled the air. He attempted to warn
Lily. Although he had no idea if she was near, this was the only thing he could do to help her.
When Rhea saw him struggle, she flicked his chin and signaled for someone to come forward and kick
him in the stomach. Austin immediately curled up in pain as sweat formed all over his body.

remodeled this place recently and tightened the security. There are tranquilizers, poison grenades, and
other things that would trigger if someone tried to break in.
"You're aware that we run a lab here, right? We've made things we can't fully dispose of, so we've
decided to use them as a security mechanism. If someone is trying to break in here, I wonder how..."
The corners of Rhea's lips curled upward, and she shook her head. "It won't be a good look for them!"
Austin wanted to yell but could not utter a single word. The pain in his body was almost unbearable
now, but he was more worried about what would happen next. At this moment, he hoped that Lily would
not show up.
Although he was not a Samaritan, he did not want anyone to die for his sake. That would mean he
owed someone a life. That act of kindness was too heavy for him to bear.
When Lily got up and saw the person she had bumped into, she froze. "It's you?! Mike, what are you
doing here?!" She took a step back and looked at him with raised eyebrows.
Mike, grimacing from the fall, got up embarrassedly. He patted off the dirt on his body and rubbed his
shoulders. He was lucky he did not break any bones. With a weak smile, he said, "I heard of your skills,
but I didn't expect you to be so powerful."
"Enough bullsh*t. What are you trying to do?" Lily asked coldly. She was not in the mood to catch up
with his life.

"Since you're waiting for me here, you should know my answer." Only then did she remember Mike
having a great connection with this institute.
She had ignored him because of the number of things she had going on in her life. Seeing that he had
taken over the shares and become a significant shareholder, she assumed he must know the real
purpose of this laboratory.
"Mike, what the hell are you planning to do? Who do you work for?" Lily looked at him and continued to
ask, "What’s the real purpose of this laboratory? W-What are you guys doing?"
"Lily, stop asking questions. Go home! It's late. You should be resting at home!" Mike carefully avoided
her questions.
"So, you know what's going on! Are you a part of them?!"
