Chapter 1805


    In response to Lily’s question, the manughed indifferently and said slowly, “That’s nothing you should


    worry about. It could be you, me, or any other intellectuals, but never those idiots.”


    Arrogance and disdain were evident in his tone, making Lily frown as she scoffed. “You think you’re one


    of the intellectuals, then?”


    “Of course!” He opened his arms and answered confidently. “Haven’t the recent happenings proved my


    intelligence? I was the one who nned everything and threw the world into chaos. If you hadn’t

    disrupted the process, I would’vepleted the entire project by now!”


    Speaking of which, he felt it was a pity for not recruiting Lily since the beginning. If he had done so, he


    would have seeded by now. However, he did not think Lily would have such an essential role in the


    project then.


    The other researchers could not blend the fragrances and the herbs ideally after she left, causing the


    project to dy until now. They had no choice but to bring her back into the team again.


    She was an uncertainty to the organization and a hidden hazard to their project. They would not have


    wanted to recruit her into the team if they had a choice.


    “No, you’re wrong,” Lily said faintly, “It’s not because of me. Many people are more brilliant than you


    and I—the others from your organization. You’re just too uncultured to see it. Even without my


    involvement, the gue would be under control quickly, with the right actions taken to mediate the


    situation. Even with me, your organization wouldn’t seed!”


    “That’s just your side of the story, but that isn’t what I see!” He did not believe Lily’s words. From his


    perspective and the news he had received, the gue was under control quickly because Lily


    managed to create an antidote.


    ording to their initial n, at least 25% of humankind should have died from the disaster. However,


    that was all water under the bridge now. Their priority was their project, which the organization could no


    longer dy.


    Lily did not argue over that because it would be pointless. One day, he would need to pay the price for


    his actions.


    “Fine, let’s move past those pointless conversations and get back to the point. What do you need me to


    do, to be exact? Do I just need to blend the fragrances and herbs like before?” After a pause, she


    added, “Or do you want me to cover up the poison’s scentpletely, so other people can willingly


    inhale the drug?”


    “That’s right!” The man was pleased. “You’re indeed an intelligentdy.”


    Lily only felt repelled by his praise and stood with one hand supporting her waist. “Let’s not waste more


    time and get down to brass tax. Show me that great research of yours.”


    However, Mike and the man stood still, staring at her profoundly as if he was pondering something.


    “What is it? Do you have concerns?” Lily asked with a raised brow.


    “Of course!” The man nodded, admitting to his concerns directly. “First of all, wee to the


    organization! Next, we’d like you to refrain from anymunication with external parties during your


    service period to prevent problems from arising. Hence, you must surrender your phone to us.”


    The man threw a look at Mike as he spoke. Although Mike was hesitant, he took a step toward Lily.


    “Lily…”
