Spoiled by Mr. Russell novel Chapter 1761

Olivia did not feel like drinking the milk. However, she knew Lily would not continue if she did not calm down and drink the milk. Ultimately, Olivia took the glass and sipped it.

Knowing how Olivia felt, Lily held her hand and looked into her eyes, saying, “Of course, it wasn’t my experiment, but I once took part in it. That’s why I know something.”

“You once took part in it?” Olivia looked at Lily doubtfully with a frown, then suddenly remembered. “You’re talking about the research institute? B-But isn’t that place abandoned now? I heard its personnel disbanded, and the experiment had completely failed.”

“It didn’t fail but has gone underground. These people haven’t given up, and their actions have a broad impact. I can’t tell you in detail, but I can tell you that there is such an experiment, and they have indeed come up with many strange drugs.

“I’m unsure if Edward has been under one of the drugs’ influence, but his shift in personality likely has something to do with the organization.” Lily had held Olivia’s hand to detect her most direct emotional responses. As it was not shaking and Olivia looked calmer, Lily relaxed, knowing Olivia was emotionally stable.

‘It shows she’s accepting my explanation and is digesting the information.’

Indeed, Olivia was digesting the fact. She lowered her head and gave it some thought, not looking as sad when she looked up again. “So it’s not Edward’s intention to divorce me, and he might be affected by some drug?”

Lily looked at her and nodded.

Although it was just speculation, it could at least comfort Olivia. At the same time, it was probable.

“Agree to it?” Olivia got riled up immediately. “No, I won’t divorce him. Over my dead body!”

“Olivia—” Lily tried to persuade her, but Olivia stopped her agitatedly. “Don’t try to persuade me because I won’t agree! If he has fallen in love with someone else or cheated on me, I’ll leave him, but that’s not the case.

“He’s under the influence of a drug and doesn’t even know what he’s doing! In other words, he’s in grave danger. How can I abandon my husband at this juncture? No, I won’t divorce him. Absolutely not!”

“Then what if he insists?” Lily asked.
