"Sorry, I'm busy," she said and attempted to leave.
After all, she was rushing to get to the X Department.
Mike grabbed her wrist.
"It’s important."
Lily frowned when she felt Mike pulling her wrist.
"You know what I'm capable of.Don't make me hurt you."
Looking at her expression, he slowly loosened his grip.
With that, she turned around without the slightest intention of staying.
"Don't you want to know the lab's secrets?"
Mike suddenly called out behind her.
That made Lily stop in her tracks.She turned to look at him with narrowed eyes.
"What are you playing at?"
"Don't you want to know what kind of virus Alex got infected with? His words were undoubtedly
tempting to her.On top of that, he knew Alexander was sick.Lily had been doing such an excellent job
at keeping that a secret.
After a moment of hesitation, she caved to his offer.Although she did not trust Mike, he was closer to
the truth and knew more than she did.
‘Should I trust him? Is he really going to tell me the truth, or is this just a trap he had set up for me?’
"I just want to have a few words with you.Nothing else.Let's choose a nearby place—your call.It's not
convenient to talk here," Mike expressed sincerely.
Then, fearing she would not believe him, he added, "With your skills, I can't hurt you even if I wanted
to."
That was true.
After some consideration, Lily said, "Let's go."
She remembered seeing a restaurant near the hospital.
It was lunchtime, but she was in a rush, so she did not bother eating.
Looking at the situation, Lily quickly and unceremoniously ordered a few dishes after they sat down.
They chose a quieter spot in the restaurant as it was packed with the lunch crowd.
After pouring herself a cup of tea and taking a sip, Lily looked at Mike.
"Spit it!"
"Don't act like you're interrogating a prisoner."
He laughed while refilling her cup.
"After all, we're old friends."
"Old friends? We’re familiar with each other now?"
Lily retorted sarcastically, "Sorry, but I don't have friends like you."
"Lily, I didn't deliberately hide it from you.I have my reasons.I—"
Before he could finish, she interrupted, 'I know everyone has their difficulties, but I'm not here to listen
to you reminisce or hear about your struggles.I just want to know if the plague was lab- engineered and
what kind of virus it is."
Lily went straight to the point.She hoped to get the answer she wanted and leave as soon as possible
as time waited for no one.
Mike looked intensely at her, seeming to be a little embarrassed.
"All I can say is that the lab isn't what it seems.There are things you don't know about, and it's not
something you or I can stop."
"I'm not trying to stop it," Lily replied as she rolled her eyes.
"I only want to know if this plague originated from that lab."
"Yes."
Unexpectedly, Mike gave her a direct answer.
However, in the next second, he added, "But no."
"Huh?"
Lily paused and eyed him suspiciously.
