Chapter 1814
Spoiled by Mr. Russell
However, no one within the organization except the "boss" and the top leader knew each otherâs identity and background, including Mike and Rhea.
Seeing the worker behaving poorly toward Lily gave Mike a strange feeling.
He did not know who the woman was as he could not get a good look at her face.
Still, he knew the standoff was not good, so he stepped forward and said, "Mrs.Russell isn't ordering you, but the boss says Mrs.Russell can use anything here at her discretion. Since she asks you to put it down, please do so."
"Why should I?"
The woman showed Mike no respect and let out a throaty, gurgling laugh.
"I'm carrying my experimentâs result.If sheâs so capable, she can do it herself.Didnât she just claim she could succeed without our data?"
"Since it's part of the experiment, it belongs here." Lily raised her brows.
"Why? Are you scared?"
"Itâs useless to try to goad me."
The worker turned away.
"I donât wish to waste my time on you guys!"
Lily stared at the womanâs back and said casually, "Are you afraid of wasting time or letting others see that youâve failed again?"
Mike was baffled.
However, Lilyâs words infuriated the woman.
She suddenly turned around, her husky and shrill voice sounding, "What the f*ck are you guys saying?
How dare you claim I failed when you donât know what it is? Do you think youâre so f*cking great to stand her and spout nonsense?!"
"Of course!"
Lily quickly responded, "Do you think you've achieved a perfect fusion of monkshood's toxicity and the scent of ambergris by using the top-notched herbs and the most expensive spices? "Indeed, the smell is potent enough, but youâve mistakenly mixed the two as it would neutralize the toxin.Even if it works, it would greatly reduce the drug's potency.If that is not a failure, what is?"
Stunned, Mike did not know whether Lily was serious or just making things up.
However, judging from her look and coherent words, he felt she was not spouting nonsense.He threw a spontaneous look at the worker and saw her standing still with her hands clenched tightly.
Although he could not see her facial expression due to the face shield, he could feel her anger and even murderous intent.
Astonished by such a feeling, Mike cleared his throat and stepped forward.
"Whatever your positions were before this, we have come here to work for our boss, and we know why.The boss will see whoever can make the experiment work as the greatest contributor!"
He looked over at the worker.
"If you donât believe in Mrs.Russell, why not..."
Before he could finish, the shrill and awful voice called out his name through his earpiece.
"Mike Corden!"
Confused, Mike cocked his head.
"Yes, sir."
"Tell Lily to focus on her job.I need what the person is holding.Tell her to come report to me immediately!"
Taken aback, Mike answered, "Yes, sir!"
