Today was special, so Lily called Alexander early to greet him. At first, she thought he would disagree.
Unexpectedly, he quickly agreed without fuss. She even wondered if she had misheard. However,
since she did not have much time, she decided to concentrate on the experiment.
After tonight, when the product was a success, she would take some time off and rest for a few days.
She would be able to spend some proper lime with Alexander too. Upon having that thought, she
returned her focus to repeating the test steps, careful not to miss anything.
After washing her face with cold water, Oliva felt more awake. She had barely taken a few steps out of
the washroom wlien she saw the back of a man. He was tall and was heading toward the lab with two
big bags in his hands.
“Freeze!” Olivia shouted immediately. Then she ran after him and blocked his path. “Who are you, and
why are you here?” Oliva held hier head high as she sized up the man before her.
The man was so tall that Olvia reached only his neck. This subtracted from the ferocity of her
confrontation. Furthermore, he looked at her with a severe expression. He had a noble face With
square jaws, thick brows, and big eyes.
Olivia‘s first reaction was that outsiders were not allowed there, so she instinctively considered him a
“bad man” and thought he looked suspicious.
The man lowered his head to glance at her. This little girl was petite, yet she was so fierce.
Oliva raised her head to stare him in tlie eyes. She looked so fierce, yet she seemed adorable. “I am
from the company,” Edward replied evasively. Olivia did not believe him. “Liar! This isn‘t my first or
second day here. I‘ve met all the lab employees but never met you. What is your name? Which
department are you from? Who is your department head? Why are you here?”
It was the critical point of the experiment. Did Nathaniel and Melanie, the two jerks, have bad
intentions? They might have sent people to cause trouble. After what happened previously, Olivia had
learned she had to be cautious of everybody, so she was on guard all the time now.
Edward was speechless. He had worked there for so long and had been Alexander‘s assistant and
driver for many years. Although he did not hold a high position, everybody in the company was polite to
him. Nobody dared to use this kind of tone with him, let alone question him.
He had no plans to drag it on with this girl. He said, “I‘m here for Ms. Christian.”
The boss had instructed him not to expose Madam‘s identity; thus, he referred to her as “Ms.
Christian.”
‘Is he looking for Lily?‘ Olivia found this even more problematic. “Why are you looking for her? Do you
know her? She is swamped and has no time to see you. If you have anything to tell her, just tell it to
me.”
Edward was speechless again as the corners of his mouth twitched. He put his hand into his pocket
and shrugged. “Um...”
Only then did the thorny Olivia notice what he was carrying. It was a big bag of food. On top of junk
food and drinks, there was takcolil and a bag of...clothes?!
