Chapter 1875
Since Alexander did not respond immediately, the gears in Mike’s head started to turn. “Alex, I’m
guessing it’s the medicine the organization used in Austin.”
Alexander regained his senses at the sound of a crucial point. “What medicine?”
“The virus,” Mike sucked in a deep breath and corrected himself, his voice low, “The organization
created many versions of the virus, which I’m sure you’re aware of. There are too many types, and I
don’t know their specific purposes.
“When Austin was here, they injected the medication, which is the virus, into his body. His body was
inting at a crazy rate. His muscles were so overgrown that I thought he would explode soon.”
Alexander nodded as he listened to Mike speak. He knew all that, but all those were just things on the
surface.
“He managed to get through it in the end, though. Later, I wanted to help him because he was an
innocent person who was forcefully involved in this. I found a chance when we were moving to another
ce, so I let him go,” Mike continued, “The rest is history. Still, that opportunity was a loophole created
by the organization. As for what they really want, I’ve got no idea either.
“ording to what you said, did they just want to let him go so that he’d spread the virus around after
injecting it into him?”
All of this was just Mike’s assumptions. He was not entirely confident either. However, after hearing
Alexander''s words, he believed he was thinking in the right direction.

Alexander nodded, finding Mike’s assumption to be highly usible. Still, it did not mean Mike was
innocent and knew nothing about it.
‘What if Mike knew it all along and is just putting up an act right now?’
Once one broke trust, it would be difficult to trust thempletely again.
As if Mike could read Alexander’s mind, he quickly added anxiously, “Alex, there’s no reason for me to
lie to you. You know why I’m here. Do you honestly think I’m one of them, here doing something that
will destroy humankind? If you can save Nick, I… I could even die if you ask me to!”
“Why would I want to take your life?” Alexander then said faintly, “Okay, I got it.”
A momentter, he added, “How is Lily…”
“She’s currently safe. After all, they need her here now. With her intelligence, you should trust her,”
Mike replied quickly.
Of course, Alexander trusted Lily, but it would not stop him from being worried either.
Meanwhile, Mike noticed Alexander would hang up soon, so he anxiously said, “Alex, about Nick…”
“Don’t worry about it. I’ve been looking for Nick and will do everything I can to save him,” To convince
Mike, he added, “I’m just doing this for the poor child. Even if you didn’t ask me to, I’d do all I can to
save him.”
Mike heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing that. He still trusted Alexander. Plus, he had no idea about
Nick’s whereabouts before this. Nheless, they were starting to have leads, which was the best
news.
After hanging up the call, Alexander sighed. When he turned around, he noticed Galen was already
awake. Galen silently stared at his father, and it pained Alexander to see his son in this state.
He quickly headed over to Galen and sat at the edge of the bed. He asked softly, “You’re awake?”
“Daddy, when did you get here?” Galen asked, his voice slightly hoarse but still childlike that it would
make anyone adore him.
“I just arrived.” Alexander chuckled.
