Spoiled by Mr. Russell novel Chapter 1602

"This lab is just a small pawn in the game. The main source isn't in Hyderland. Do you understand?" Mike said cryptically after a moment of thought.

Although he did not give a direct answer, Lily understood what he meant and nodded thoughtfully. "Are you saying Hyderland is just a subsidiary branch, and the headquarters is abroad?"

Mike nodded. "The boss behind it is more powerful than we can ever imagine. We can't compete against him. Lily, you shouldn't dig any deeper. If you do, you might risk your life and the lives of the people around you."

"That means this is all just to try and convince me not to investigate further in the lab?" Lily asked mockingly, a smile on her face.

"No!" Mike shook his head and said, "I want to strike a deal with you."

"What deal?"

"Come back and work for the lab. This time, you'll be tasked with more important projects. But you shouldn't ask questions or care about what you're doing. Just concentrate on your experiments."

"What do I get?" Lily was curious. After all, every deal had its conditions.

Mike looked at her and slowly said, "We can give you a sample of the virus that Alex is infected with. That way, you might be able to create an antidote."

Hearing this, Lily almost laughed out loud. "Why don't you just give me the antidote?"

‘What a joke!’

She thought she would get an antidote in exchange. It turned out that he was just going to give her a sample of the virus. That way, she still had to find a way to develop an antidote.

Mike clearly understood this as well. He knew that Lily must have doubts, thinking he was lying to her. He explained, "When the virus was developed, no one thought of making an antidote. After all, it was aimed at a targeted group of people."

"Targeted group?" This term shocked Lily once again. She was regarded as a knowledgeable person, but she had never before encountered the concept of group-specific viruses.

‘What organization is this, and what are they doing?’

"So, who are the targeted people?" Although she had a faint suspicion in her heart, she was still unsure.

Mike fell silent. After a pause, he finally spoke. "Lily, I'm telling you this to let you know that you are no match for the virus or the boss behind all of this. This deal is good for you, Alex, and us!"
