Chapter 1573


    He seemed rather upset.


    “I could only describe what I observed. You know this is not my profession. I can’t possibly write a


    detailed report.” Mike appeared innocent as he opened his arms. “This kind of job is more suitable for


    Rhea.”


    “So you’reining that I asked you to do this instead of Rhea?” Looking up, the man asked


    unhappily. His voice, rough and unpleasant, was unsettling.


    Mike shook his head. “No, that’s not what I meant. I’m just saying that this is not my profession, and I


    know little about it. So I might make mistakes or not perform a detailed and objective observation. I…

    worry that I’d dy the progress of the experiment,” he replied in a seemingly objective manner.


    “Hmm…” The impatient man thought about it seriously. “Rhea is doing another more important


    experiment and cannot afford to make any mistakes. Also, we are short on staffing. Otherwise, I


    wouldn’t ask you to do it.”


    Mike remained quiet.


    “I know you’re against it, and you still have some softness and kindness. What’s wrong? You couldn’t


    bear to see him suffer?” As if to make his presence felt, he climbed up the stool and then the desk.


    Being a little taller than Mike now, he stared down at him.


    “A… little bit, I guess.” Mike said it ndly, knowing the man would not believe him if he denied it.


    The man let out a strangeugh, as if mocking him. “A little? You guys are hypocrites! You’re willing to


    help me and obey my orders only for the sake of your son! Human beings are selfish by nature, so why


    pretend to be kind? Besides, the world will undergo an upheaval when we pull off the experiment!”


    “So, can I see my son?” Mike did not refute the man’s words and eagerly wanted to see how his son


    was doing.


    When his son first went missing, he tried his best to get his men to search for him worldwide. However,


    he had failed miserably, as if his son had simply vanished. Then this horrible man came to see him.


    He had tried to rebel and break free from his control, but it only led to his son suffering harm.


    No matter how hard he tried, he could not find his son. Only through this man could he see how his son


    was doing through video, and when the man was in a good mood, he was allowed to talk to his son.


    So hepromised and yielded. All he could do was work with them, even though he knew their


    actions were immoral.


    ‘The man is right that human beings are selfish by nature. For my son, I can give up everything, even


    my life. Why should I care what other people think?’


    “Your performance is not that goodtely.” The man made it clear that he was unhappy with Mike and


    hinted that he would not be allowed to see his son.


    “If I hadn’t warned you guys to get ready beforehand, the research institute would have long been


    sealed off by the police. Also, if I hadn’t thought of removing his trace, the police dogs would have


    tracked Austin down. Your safety-”


    Before he could finish, the man interrupted. “Are you doubting me now?”


    “No!” Suppressing his emotions, Mike lowered his head. “I only want to see my son and ensure he’s


    still okay.”


    “It’s easy to see your son. Do a good job for me and obey my orders!” The man said, “You did well on


    relocating theboratory, but I don’t wish to stay in this dark ce any longer. Find me a better location


    so that I can move out!”


    He hated the smell of the disinfectant the most, and as their current location was underground, he felt


    like a rat in the sewer. He wanted to be on the topmost floor so he could see the sun every day and


    gaze down upon everyone else.


    “It’s… difficult!” Mike said, knowing it’s not an easy task.
