Spoiled by mr. russell chapter 1602-“This lab is just a small pawn in the game.The main source isn’t in
Hyderland.Do you understand?”
Mike said cryptically after a moment of thought.
Although he did not give a direct answer, Lily understood what he meant and nodded thoughtfully.
“Are you saying Hyderland is just a subsidiary branch, and the headquarters is abroad?” Mike nodded.
“The boss behind it is more powerful than we can ever imagine.We can’t compete against him.Lily, you
shouldn’t dig any deeper.If you do, you might risk your life and the lives of the people around you.”
“That means this is all just to try and convince me not to investigate further in the lab?” Lily asked
mockingly, a smile on her face.
“No!”
Mike shook his head and said, “I want to strike a deal with you.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“What deal?”
“Come back and work for the lab.This time, you’ll be tasked with more important projects.But you
shouldn’t ask questions or care about what you’re doing.Just concentrate on your experiments.”
“What do I get?”
Lily was curious.
After all, every deal had its conditions.
Mike looked at her and slowly said, ”We can give you a sample of the virus that Alex is infected with.That
way, you might be able to create an antidote.”
Hearing this, Lily almost laughed out loud.
“Why don’t you just give me the antidote?”
‘What a joke!’ She thought she would get an antidote in exchange.It turned out that he was just going to
give her a sample of the virus.That way, she still had to find a way to develop an antidote.
‘What if I can’t figure it out? Then this deal won’t benefit me at all.
What’s the use of working with the lab if you can’t save Alex? This deal sounds preposterous!’ After a
moment of silence, Mike said, “To be honest, there’s no antidote for this virus yet.”
“What?!”
Lily almost shot up in shock.Her sudden movement caused the tea in her hand to spill out.
Mike quickly grabbed some tissues to wipe it.
The conversation was shortly interrupted as the waiter began to serve them the dishes.
By the time the waiter brought out all of the food, Lily had gotten herself back together.
“There’s no antidote?”
‘Forget natural diseases, how can there not be an antidote for a man-made virus? What if the scientists
involved got infected? What should they do then?’ Mike clearly understood this as well.
He knew that Lily must have doubts, thinking he was lying to her.He explained, “When the virus was
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmdeveloped, no one thought of making an antidote.After all, it was aimed at a targeted group of people.”
“Targeted group?”
This term shocked Lily once again.
She was regarded as a knowledgeable person, but she had never before encountered the concept of
group-specific viruses.
‘What organization is this, and what are they doing?’
“So, who are the targeted people?”
Although she had a faint suspicion in her heart, she was still unsure.
Mike fell silent.
After a pause, he finally spoke.
“Lily, I’m telling you this to let you know that you are no match for the virus or the boss behind all of
this.This deal is good for you, Alex, and us!”
