    Chapter 1744


    "Why is it ridiculous?"


    Lily looked at him solemnly without a smile on her face.


    "Is it not?"


    Alexander questioned back.


    "What kind of world are we living in today? In the age of science and technology, things develop at


    breakneck speed, and there are so many advanced weapons.Do they think we still live in the


    prehistoric era and that they can take over the world by controlling people''s minds? "Look at the


    number of people in this world.How many medicines have been developed, how can they ensure


    everyone will react ordingly to the medicine, and how can they be sure it’ll work on everyone? Isn''t


    this just a fool''s dream?"


    He shook his head, not knowing who would have such ambitious ideas.


    However, Lily seemed to disagree.


    "Not necessary.It''s not impossible."


    "Huh?"


    "You don''t necessarily have to control the entire poption to rule the world."


    After a pause, she continued slowly, "If they want to take over the world, or even just no.velebook


    certain countries, controlling the right people’s minds will be enough."


    Alexander seemed to realize something when he heard that.He narrowed his eyes.


    "You mean..."


    Before he could finish speaking, the phone rang.


    Initially, Lily did not want to pick it up.


    However, her phone kept ringing, making it impossible to ignore.


    After looking at Alexander, she leaned over to get her phone, clicked on it, and saw a few text


    messages from Olivia.


    "Lily, he''s back."


    "I heard himing in."


    "Let''s not talk about this first."


    Lily did not reply.She assumed Olivia must be on edge right now, and the text tone might alert Edward,


    who had juste home.


    Once Lily had finished reading the texts, she looked up at Alexander.


    "Edward has gone home."


    This content ? N?v/elDr(a)m/a.Org.


    "I know."


    Alexander was not surprised.He nodded and said, "I was going to tell you.My men saw his caring


    out at the gate of the vine research base."


    "You didn''t call your men back?"


    Lily was startled as she thought he had dismissed his men.


    "No.I wanted to, but after thinking about it, Edward’s car was still inside.Even if he left in another car, he


    would still have to return for his ownter.It was as I expected!"


    He raised his wrist to check the time and said, "His car left the vine research base more than half


    an hour ago."


    "So, he might have been in the base this whole time?"


    After all, no one saw Edward leave.


    Therefore, it was tough to say.


    Regardless, he was clearly involved with whatever was going on in the vine research base.


    "That doesn''t matter.The important thing is that the vine research base may not be good news."


    Lily felt her heart grow heavy as she looked at Alexander.


    ‘He’s right.This new vine research base is simr to the old research institute.Once they


    sessfully develop the vine, they’ll give it to the world.The whole world!’
