Chapter 1366
The woman's gaze was sharp as her eyes focused on him.
Her thin lips moved, spitting out a name.
"Rhea Moore."
"Rhea...Moore," Austin repeated after her.
He ransacked his brain, attempting to match a face to that name, but to no avail.
Then he nodded.
"Are you from the research institute too? Professor Thompson mentioned that you're in charge of another project. What is it?"
Rhea looked at him with squinted eyes.
"Are you the one who will be treating my cousin?"
"Who?!"
Austin was startled by her question.
"Anastasia Rollins," she replied, "Didn't you promise my mother?"
Only after Rhea mentioned Anastasia's ndid Austin remember what had happened.

"You mean that fat—"
Just as he was about to finish his sentence, he quickly corrected himself after feeling like it was inappropriate.
"So, you're Mrs.Moore's daughter."
"Do you know how?"
Rhea ignored his words and asked directly.
"Of course | do.Isn't that girl just obese? It's as hard and as easy as it can get.The important thing here is the willingness for one to
cooperate."
As usual, being ambiguous was Austin's expertise.
That way, no one could know what he was insinuating.
Rhea raised her eyebrows and shifted her stance out of fatigue.
With her arms still crossed before her chest, she tilted her head and asked, "What's the easiest solution?"
"I'll take her pulse and prescribe straditional medicinal herbs to regulate the symptoms.Besides her self-control, it usually has
something to do with her endocrine system.Once her metabolism is regulated, she will gradually lose weight," Austin explained.
Only after he finished talking did he realize something was wrong.
‘Why am | answering her questions without hesitation? It seems like she hason a leash"
It was out of character for Austin to unknowingly cooperate with Rhea, like an obedient student that answered all his teacher's
questions.
Austin quickly regained his composure and widened his eyes to keep himself fresh.
He must have been exhausted after staying up all night.
That must be why he was falling into her trap.
"Ms.Moore, did your mother get you to inviteover?"
He cleared his throat and asked, emphasizing the word "invite."
However, Rhea was unbothered by him.
"We're two different people.”
"So, you—"
Austin had just spoken two words before she interjected.
"What's your relationship with Mrs.Russell?"
This question took Austin by surprise.
"Nothing," he subconsciously denied.

He only hated how Lily always managed to be one step ahead of him.
‘Relationship? | want nothing to do with her after our encounter the other day"
Ever since Lily silenced him with a poke at his acupressure point, he wanted nothing to do with her.
"Is there a misunderstanding?" Austin asked tentatively.
After all, he had no idea if Rhea and Lily were friends or enemies.
"Lily is also a part of our research group.Are you two friends?" Rhea snorted.
"So, that's her name."
Austin was speechless.
The two should not be friends if Rhea did not even know Lily's name.
However, how could Rhea be enemies with someone she did not know? Rhea was more challenging to read than Lily.
Austin could not figure out what she wanted.
Then he heard her ask, "Did you say she's also from our research institute?"
"Yes.Didn't Professor Thompson tell you? He admires her very much and thinks she's competent.She cinto this project earlier
than me.She's very well respected here," Austin deliberately explained as he studied Rhea’s face.
