Chapter 1280


    Olivia understood immediately. She only knew Lily was coborating on a new experiment at the


    research institute, but she had no idea what it was about because it was supposed to be ssified.


    If they were to talk about the experiment, it was not appropriate for her to be present.


    "Will you be okay going there on your own? What if he insists you stay with the project, and you two get


    into a fight? There''ll be no one to help you." Thinking about it, she frowned. "Why don''t you bring


    Edward with you? He can wait outside in case anything happens."


    Knowing she’s concerned for her safety, Lily said with augh, "You think I''m going there to fight?


    Besides, Professor Thompson is an old man. I''m afraid he’s the one who would need help if things get


    physical."


    However, Olivia kept shaking her head. "He''s old, but what if he brings help? You’re young and know


    kickboxing, but you''re pregnant!"


    "We''ll be in a public ce. Why have you gotten so anxious?" Olivia wanted to argue further, but Lily


    added, "You even took Edward''s mosquito bite as a hickey and scratched his face. Fortunately, he has


    a good temper. If not, what would you do if he turned his back on you?"


    "I..." Stumped, Olivia blushed. "Why did he tell everyone about this?


    Besides, how do you know it''s a mosquito bump? It was a hickey, okay?"


    "Because I saw one, and someone tried in vain to mislead me to think otherwise!" Thinking of what


    Alexander was trying to do, Lily was amused.This is property ? of N?velDrama.Org.


    ‘He always looks so aloof to others but sometimes acts like an attention seeking puppy in my


    presence"


    "What?" Olivia was intrigued andughed. "You saw one too?"


    "Anyway, stop bullying Edward just because he''s easygoing, okay?" Lily elbowed her lightly.


    Olivia pouted. "Lily, we''re on the same team. How could you side with him?"


    "You sided with Alex too just now, didn''t you?" She chuckled.


    Olivia was speechless.


    Mike was shocked as he stood still. As someone who was well-traveled, he thought he had seen


    everything. However, he did not know how to describe the face before him.


    Half-concealed by a ck mask, his exposed face was covered with scars.


    It was hard to tell whether the scars resulted from burns or stab wounds, and even though half of them


    were covered by the mask, they still looked terrifying.


    Even his dark brown eyes were enigmatic and sinister. Despite having been around, Mike felt a chill go


    down his spine.


    "Well?" Mr. R spoke, and his hoarse voice still sounded awful. Coupled with his look, the man looked


    like someone from hell, which was unnerving. " Are you pleased with how I look, Mr. Corden?"


    He looked unblinkingly ahead, his feet glued to the floor, and gulped despite himself. Fortunately, he


    still seemed somewhat calm.
