However, Lily went up and down but could not find Thompson.

She stood before the elevator, thought about the secretive top floor that no one could enter, and looked up.

The indicator showed that the elevator was moving down floor by floor until it stopped with a ding.

The elevator doors opened, and the one inside was not Thompson but Mike.

They were stunned to see each other in such a circumstance.

Mike recovered first with a smile and greeted her casually, "Good morning."

"Morning."

Lily looked at him.

"It's still so early, Mr.Corden.Have you just cto work, or did you work overnight here?"

Without waiting for his reply, Lily continued, "Either way, as the biggest shareholder, you're truly dedicated, aren't you?"

The elevator doors started closing, and Mike held them open before stepping out.

He looked at her and said, "Lily, we're old friends.There’s no need to talk tothis way, is there?"

"Okay.Since we're old friends, I'd like to know why you've insisted on joining this project. Why must you invest? Do you honestly

think it has a good prospect? What is the real purpose of this experiment?"

Lily was curious.

Mike had always wanted to join the project right from the start.She thought he had given up when he stopped mentioning it and

did not expect him to make a direct investment and becthe majority shareholder instead.

Lily also did not know who Mike had dealt with.She had dealt directly with Thompson since the project began; the major funder was

La Beauté Group.

Mike had joined after Alexander's company pulled out from the project.

She believed there was someone behind Thompson, but she did not know who the person was and what they wanted to

do.Thompson never revealed the person’s identity to her.

All the secrecy and suspicious activities made her wonder that the project and the experiment were not as simple as they had told

her.

Everything about the research was to prepare for applying those poisonous plants.

Mike stood there looking at Lily with his hands in his pockets, his smile unchanging.

"Well, you know much more about the experiment.You've been here longer thanand are much more involved in the project.As

someone who knows it best, tellwhat the final purpose of the experiment is.How is its prospect?"

Businessmen like Mike were good at hedging, and he quickly threw the questions back at her.

Lily frowned and said, "Mike, we've known each other for so long, and you said so yourself that you're a friend.Is this how you

patronize people? If you don’t wish to tellor can’t, then don’t.We don't have to go around in circles."

Mike held up his hands as if surrendering and said, "My apologies, but that’s not what | meant.| don’t know much about medicinal

herbs and raw materials.I’'m a businessman and only care about whether it would make money. think this medical project has a

good future, so | invested.Also, | believe in your capabilities.|t’s just as simple as that."

"As simple as that, huh?"

Lily was doubtful.

Even though he sounded earnest, she felt something was not right.

"You didn’t wonder why Alex would pull out of the project if it has such a good prospect? Or why La Beauté Group stopped investing

until you got the chance to take over?" she asked earnestly.
