Chapter 1290

Back then, at the entrance of the research institute, he insisted that a woman should not be doing these things. He yelled at her to

withdraw from the project. Now, he was outside her studio, telling her it was all a coincidence. She found it unbelievable.

"If | said | was just passing by, would you believe me?’

"Haha." Lily let out a dry laugh without saying anything else. Instead, she stared at him with a smile, creeping him out.

‘Weirdo!" He thought to himself. He was obviously just passing by.

‘Why is she staring atlike that, insinuating that I'm making excuses?

Thinking of this, he becmore confident and puffed up his chest. Then he pointed at the car and asked, "Is this car yours?’

Lily followed his finger and replied, 'So what if it is, and so what if it isn't?"

Austin did not know what to say to this woman. In the end, he asked, ‘So, it was you at my second granduncle's house the other

day"

"Your second granduncle?" Lily raised her eyebrows and asked knowingly.

"Mr. Fike, Mr. Dominic Fike," Austin said without hesitation. He was very curious about her relationship with his granduncle.

"Oh, so Dominic Fike is your second granduncle" Lily nodded as if she had just caught on to his words.

This suddenly made Austin feel proud, and he began to brag, "Of course! Do you understand now why | advised you to withdraw

from the project? It's not just empty words. | cfrom a family of doctors.

"My family has been studying medicinal herbs for generations. How can a normal person like you understand the profoundness of

medicinal herbs? Your commercial fragrances are nothing compared to it. Yours are for children"

Everything he said showed how much he looked down on the perfumery industry.

In his opinion, those products were made to satisfy women. It was almost like a distraction that was a waste of money. How could

those products compare to theirs, which could heal people and save lives?

Besides, the inherent scent of the medicinal herbs was their signature. Be it bitter or sour, why should it be covered up? Using

commercial fragrances would mask it.

Austin did not bother to hide his contempt because he did not think anything was wrong with what he said.

However, Lily sneered. "You cfrom a long line of medicinal herb practitioners? As far as | know, Mr. Dominic started practicing

it independently. Before that, the past generations of the Fike family did not practice any medicine, be it as a general practitioner

or a medicinal herb practitioner."

"You..." Austin did not expect her to know so much about the Fike family affairs. He squinted and asked, "What's your relationship

with my granduncle?"

Seeing that she only had a faint smile on her lips and did not answer, Austin was agitated. At last, he could not help but ask, "Could

it be that you n

Lily raised an eyebrow to look at him expectantly.

"Could it be that you know who my granduncle's secret apprentice is?!"

The first thing that cto mind was that maybe she was Dominic's secret apprentice. However, that thought was pushed away

as quickly as it came. ‘Impossible!’

Although Dominic had never mentioned anything about his secret apprentice, Austin refused to believe that the secret apprentice

could ever be a woman.

How much could a mere woman learn about medicinal herbs? Even if she managed to learn a few things, there was no way

someone as critical as Dominic would choose a woman to be his secret apprentice.

All of his previous apprentices were men, after all.

Thinking of this, Austin was reassured that Lily was not Dominic's secret apprentice. The only possibility was that the two somehow

becacquainted. That would explain why Dominic saw her in a different light.

Lily did not answer.

His guess was so close, yet so far.

However, she just chuckled.

"Wait, am I right? So, you know who my granduncle's apprentice is? Who is he? How do you know him?" Austin had always been

curious about who this mysterious person was that attracted his granduncle's attention.

Dominic would not even take his own grandnephew in.
