Chapter 1681


    When asked so, Lily only said ndly, "We''ll know in a while."


    "Even if he’s truly the one, will he still do anything now despite the risk?"


    The man removed his goggles and revealed half of his face—he was none other than Dr.nc, who


    ordered her containment.


    Lily nodded affirmatively.


    "He will!" She then asked a seemingly unrted question.


    "I heard the vine development center has started its research recently?"


    "That’s right." Dr.nc answered.


    Although he was not in charge of the vine''s development and it was outside of his purview, he was


    aware of it because it was significant and rted to what they were doing.


    "What does it have to do with whether he will act, though? Even if the development of the cure is


    stalled, would it impede vine research? Or are there conspirators over there as well?"


    Pausing, Dr.nc seemed to think about something and said, "Oh, yes, I remember your husband’s


    He did not know why it was reopened for tender, but seeing that Secretary Rollins approved it


    personally, he thought the man must have his reason.


    "Yes." Lily nodded slightly.


    Even though she was there, it did not mean she knew nothing about what was happening outside.


    Although thepany could continue functioning without Alexander, this did not mean he was no


    longer personally involved.


    Having helmed such a massive corporation for years, he could only have held onto his position if he

    was capable.


    He had been recuperating there, and his phone was taken away, but he had his means.


    As they had lost the contract for no reason, thepany''s top management called an emergency


    meeting and informed Alexander of their n to take back the project, but he stopped them.


    Although they were not close, he and Cameron were old friends, and he knew what the man was like.


    However, he could only set aside the unusual incident for now due to his health.


    Instead, Alexander decided to wait and see how things would turn out.


    Interestingly, the project eventually ended up in the hands of Cameron’s brother-inw.It was a typical


    maneuver to enrich one’s family, but Alexander did not think so.


    If Cameron had wanted to, and if he cared so much about wealth, he could have done it a long time


    ago and not made it so obvious that it became the talk of the town.He also wondered what Fabian had


    done or threatened Cameron with.His men were still investigating and had note up with anything


    yet.


    Even Anastasia had no idea that the matter should have something to do with Rhea Moore.


    Lily had worked hard day and night toe up with the cure to finish her task early and end the


    seemingly unstoppable pandemic.


    She wanted to get to the bottom of what happened and hang out with her beloved son and friends


    again.She and Dr.nc sat facing one another, and the air seemed frozen as they suddenly quieted


    down.


    "Alex..."


    A warning siren came from his vibrating pocket as Dr.nc was about to say something.He


    subconsciously nced toward Lily while holding his pocket down.They exchanged a look and got up


    immediately.
