His secret spoiled wife (Lily and Alexander)

Chapter 1249

Chapter 1249

When Lily left the lab, Austin followed suit. She walked at a faster pace, but he still managed to catch up with her due to the

advantage he had with his height and long legs.

Soon, he was in front of her, blocking her path. "Ms. Christian."

"What is it, Mr. Fike?" Lily stopped in her tracks, although she would rather just ignore him.

She didn't understand how he, who acted all righteous while lying and using someone else's nto becfamous, could

advance so far in this field.

"You know this experiment can’t succeed, don’t you? Since it's moving in the wrong direction, why are you continuing? According

to what | know, your husband has also invested much money in this project. Aren't you worried that neither of you will benefit from

this?"

"How would | know that? I'm just a woman who knows nothing about medicinal herbs. How could | possibly know the outcof

this research? Mr. Fike, don’t you think your question is quite contradictory?" Lily smiled, using Austin's mocking words to reply to

him.

That rendered him speechless for a split second before he began. "Fine. I'll tell you if you don't know. The direction of the entire

project is wrong, and it can’t succeed! This research is also pointless, and it shouldn't be continued at all!"

There was a hint of fury in his voice. Slowly, Lily looked into his eyes with interest.

‘Fascinating. I've always thought he was just scon man, but it seems like he knows what he’s doing. Plus, he certainly has

something to say about the research.’

After a moment of silence, Lily suppressed her dislike toward Austin and asked in a slightly more amicable tone, "Tellthen. Why

do you say that it's impossible to succeed?"

Be it to convince Lily or that Austin was in a good mood, he sucked in a deep breath before explaining earnestly, "First of all, you

need to know that there are millions of medicinal herbs in the world, and each of them has its uses, scents, and properties. I'll give

it to them for being creative, but it's not plausible.

Think about it. We're trying to use the scent of fragrances to cover up the smell of the medicinal heros. However, each of those

herbs has its own smell, which means that different scents in different amounts would need to be used to cover up the different

medicinal smells.

This needs to be done countless times, and at the end of the day, this is just wasting resources. It's something pointless to do!"

Lily stayed silent, appearing to be in thought.

"On top of that, each of the herbs has its purposes as well, in the sense that they treat different illnesses. What kind of after-

effects will it bring to the consumers once it combines with the fragrances? Will there be any negative effects? We can't be sure

about that, so who could bear the consequences if things were to go wrong? Also, who could we possibly test the product on?"

At the start of their conversation, Lily still had a light smile, but it slowly diminished toward the end. Her expression became

serious as well as she stared at Austin.

He was right. Those were the questions she had asked Thompson before this. This research was far more complicated than her

previous ones.

Mixing the fragrances, identifying the fragrances and essential oil scents, and testing their scents at different periods were all she

had to do. The product would also not endanger consumers.

However, it was different this tbecause they added medicinal herbs to their experiments, which had their own effects. If they

did not try the product themselves and there was no research data or results from testing it, how could they put it on the market

for use?

It was because of those reasons that Lily wanted to stop the experiment.
