Chapter 2157

Spoiled by mr. russell chapter 2157 -Austin didn’t leave that day and stayed at Alexander’s place.

When Alexander went downstairs, he spotted someone sitting in a rocking chair on the patio facing the yard. He grabbed two beer cans and went to hand Austin one. “Want one?”

Austin smiled and took the beer. With a pop, he pulled the tab and took a swig. “I used to think you were just a shitty businessman who cares only about money, but now I feel that—”

“I’m not?” Alexander asked.

“Now I feel you’re a savvy businessman who might not care much about money.” Austin laughed at his own half-joke.

Alexander chuckled along and sipped his beer. However, he could not help but frown. He looked at Austin and asked, “So there’s nothing you can do about the stuff inside Rhea?”

He did not ask this question when Mike was around. After all, Mike was emotionally unstable, and Alexander did not want to agitate him.

“The simplest approach is to know the formula.” Austin looked at the moon. “The other way is to analyze its pharmacological properties, which will take some time. I read some of the experimental notes at the lab. The stuff they used wasn’t rare, but they dared to try anything.”

The organization did not care about human lives, so it was natural for them to be that way.

“So the eventual results would often be unexpected.” Austin paused and played with the can. “It’s not impossible, but I need time.”

Time was the most precious thing in the world, but that was what they lacked.

“How much time do you need?” Alexander asked.

Austin turned to look at him but said nothing because he did not know either. For example, the infection on the estate lasted for many days. When they were about to give up, they found a cure. So, no one could predict how long it would take.

“How are things with the X Department?” Alexander changed the subject, “Their workload isn’t that pressing, right? That’s why you’re able to stay here.”

“Yup!” Austin chuckled, knocked his beer can against Alexander’s, and gulped it down.

Feeling refreshed by the cold beer, he burped. “Our department took over and reorganized the vaccine development center’s management. You no longer need to worry about it.”

“So soon?” Alexander was surprised. He knew X Department handled the situation in the center but did not expect them to complete their mission so quickly.

“Well, they’re efficient.” Austin nodded and smiled. “It was easy to take over since it was in disarray.

Besides, Edward knew about the situation inside and offered great help to us.”
