Spoiled by Mr. Russell novel Chapter 1353

It must have been severe if the typically level-headed Alexander was in such a rush. However, he did not want Lily to worry, so he did not answer immediately.

After taking a few mouthfuls of food, his restless heart calmed down. "Something happened to the factory in Burnwken. I need to go down there and check things out."

Although his tone was light, Lily knew it was bigger than what he made it up to be. Otherwise, he would not make such a last-minute trip.

"What happened?" She asked bluntly.

Alexander immediately froze and looked at her. Knowing her temper, he let out a soft sigh before putting down his spoon and explaining," A collective poisoning incident happened in one of the factories in Burnwken."

"Collective poisoning?" Lily was astounded.

It could be any sort of poisoning. It should be no big deal if it were food poisoning from eating unhygienic or the wrong food. However, it would be a different story if it was industrial poisoning.

"What’s the situation there now?" She continued to ask.

"Three have died so far."

"Died?!"

‘Then this isn’t a trivial matter.’ Lily expected them to be hospitalized at most, not dead.

"Yeah." Alexander nodded solemnly. "I don't know the details of the situation yet, but the management team had also gotten hospitalized. I'm going over to have a look."

"I know you're a professional at perfumery, but when it comes to medicinal herbs…" He knew she had been exposed to medicinal herbs lately, but learning was one thing, and application was another.

On top of that, she had only been studying medicinal herbs for a short time. Still, it was an extensive and profound field. However, before finishing his sentence, he met Lily’s stern look. He quickly changed his words. "You're also a professional when it comes to medicinal herbs. I believe you!"

Lily laughed and carefully tucked the tiny vial into his pocket. "Take care. Let me know when you've reached Burnwken."

"Okay." Alexander lowered his head and gave her a peck on the lips.

Just as he was about to leave, Lily hooked her arm around his neck and deepened the kiss fiercely. Her actions surprised Alexander. After all, she was usually shy and reserved. It was a rare initiative, but he willingly responded to her.
