Chapter 1922


    Lily understood Edward’s pain and was shocked.


    She stopped persuading him but raised her hand, paused, and lightly ced it on his shoulder. With a


    sigh, she said, "All right! But you must be careful and remember to stay under the radar."


    Edward nodded and was about to leave when she stopped him again. "Edward!"


    When he turned around, he saw Lily stepping forward to look at him. "There may be a solution for the


    virus in your body. Don''t give up just yet! You must know that there are still people waiting for you!"


    Edward was stunned, probably because he did not quite believe there was a solution to the virus in his


    body. However, after seeing the sincerity in Lily’s eyes, he knew she meant well, even if it was just to


    Edward nodded with a light smile. "I know."


    Several people left the office, one after another. Within half an hour, the news had already spread like


    wildfire.


    Few people knew about the masked man’s existence, especially the ground staff. Moreover, the


    vine development base did not fully disclose thisboratory''s project.


    In addition to the “vine,” there were other ongoing projects whereboratories and teams had


    different responsibilities. Only some of thisboratory’s personnel knew about the masked man. Those


    who knew him were Mike, Rhea, Lily, his bodyguards, and a few more individuals involved with the


    organization.


    This news began to spread among smaller groups, and they were anxious to find the “boss’s”


    whereabouts. However, they could not make it too obvious lest they alert the vine development


    base.


    The impromptu emergency meeting urred in theboratory’s small room. Since Mike had always


    given orders, he sat in the main seat with Rhea on the opposite end. The dissatisfaction was apparent


    on her face. On the other hand, Lily was unbothered as she randomly pulled a chair and sat down.


    Then she noticed an unfamiliar man sitting across from Rhea.


    The man had a muscr figure. Lily knew he was a seasoned practitioner at a nce. Under his suit


    and leather shoes, every slight movement from him showcased the muscles under his clothes.


    Although he looked strong, he was just quietly sitting there. He observed the room with a sharp gaze


    and straight back.


    ''This man is a master!'' Lily concluded. She lowered her eyes, with a notebook and pen in her hand,


    writing and drawing asionally. She had the most indifferent attitude among everyone in the room.


    "People like us seldom get a chance to gather like this. Today’s a special case. We simply had to


    gather everyone here," Mike said after clearing his throat.

    He looked around, continuing in a deep voice, "The boss is missing!"


    The room fell silent. However, everyone already knew this, so no one was surprised.


    Rhea snorted softly. "Get to the point!"


    Mike red at her and continued, "We must keep the boss''s identity a secret so this matter can’t go


    public. The most important thing right now is to find him as soon as possible while remaining under the


    radar."


    "That''s simple." Rhea crossed her legs while gently stroking her delicate nails and smiled sarcastically.


    "Do you have a clue?" Mike raised his eyebrows and looked at her.


    Rhea''s sarcastic smile remained as she looked at Mike and said with a sneer, "I''ll have to ask you


    about that!"


    At this moment, the atmosphere turned tense.
