Chapter 1953


    Rhea nced at Mike’s hands and eximed coldly, "Get your hands off me!"


    She looked fierce after dropping her smile.


    Mike loosened his grip but did not let go.


    "Rhea, what''s the experiment’sst step? Haven''t wepleted it?"


    He subconsciously looked toward theputer.


    Although he could not understand what was on the screen, he roughly knew what it was about.


    ‘Doesn''t the data indicate the experiment’s sess? Why would Rhea and Lily say the experiment has


    worked if it doesn''t?’ Rhea followed his line of sight and looked toward the screen before chuckling.


    "Do you think the experiment is about creating the product?"


    "It’s not?"


    Mike noticed her staring coldly at his hands and quickly let her go while softening his tone, "I''d like to


    know exactly what you''re talking about."


    "Must I tell you? We''re not on good terms, aren''t we?" Rhea asked.


    Mike knew they almost resembled enemies.


    However, he also knew they had no reason to hate each other so profoundly.


    Besides, their fates were uncertain now that the experiment had made such progress.


    They were in the organization for a long while yet had never met the true leaders and did not even


    know how to contact them.


    Therefore, they did not know if they mattered to the organization or whether or not it would keep them


    alive.


    "Rhea,"


    Mike said thoughtfully, "No matter for what purpose Rick took Lily away, he didn’t want us to know


    about it.We''re nobody to the organization.


    "You''re indeed capable, and I know you''re not afraid of dying, but if you die, you won''t be able to wow


    the world with your future experiments."


    After a pause, he looked at Rhea and slowly said, "You also won''t be able to surpass Lily."


    He knew Rhea quite well after being around her for so long.


    Although Rhea did not fear death, everyone cared about something.


    What Mike cared most about was his son, and for Rhea, nothing was more important than her ambition


    to be world-famous for her experiments.


    Therefore, she could not stand being unable to surpass Lily— nothing would make Rhea sadder than

    dying as a nobody.


    As Mike suspected, Rhea became upset.


    "Rhea, you might not be as talented as Lily, but you can outperform her through hard work.Besides, if


    she dies, I doubt you can’t surpass her if you devote your life to that goal," Mike continued to tempt her.


    "However, if the organization thinks we''re expandable and kills us, you''d be deprived of that chance,


    wouldn''t you?" Rhea stared ahead thoughtfully.


    "Rhea..."


    Mike tried to provoke her further, but Rhea suddenly lost her temper.


    "Enough! What''s the point of provoking me?"


    Mike chuckled, taken aback.


    "I''m not.I''m just trying to remind you of a fact.Of course, unless you feel you''ll never surpass Lily.As I


    said, hard work is nothingpared to real talent."


    "B*llshit!"


    Rhea suddenly snapped, "I''ll prove hard work matters! So what if Lily is gifted? I''m also talented, okay?


    She just got lucky.


    Besides, she''ll be a vessel for the experiment soon!"


    "A vessel?"
