His secret spoiled wife (Lily and Alexander)

"What? What the hell are they up to?" The older man was appalled and somewhat angry.

Being at his age and having gone through so much, he was used to all kinds of trouble. However, after he figured out what the

research institute was up to, he was shocked and appalled.

"lI don't know what they're planning, but it's not improving herbal medicine for the benefit of humanity, as we first presumed they

were doing."

She held up the cup of tea and took a sip. It had a mellow taste.

The older man knew how to enjoy himself. He had tea leaves of good quality here, and both the herbs and tea leaves were gifts

from nature. Thousand s of years ago, the ancestors were wise in using various herbs to treat patients.

However, they have dual therapeutic and harmful potential. Poisons and medicines were always used in tandem. Smedicinal

herbs have the potential to save lives if used properly, but they also carry the risk of death if misapplied.

Lily knew about this and had always been extra careful when using medicinal herbs. However, she did not expect those at the

research institute to harbor evil intentions.

‘Sometimes, human beings can be more toxic than poison"

Somewhat unsettled, the old man rubbed his fingers together for a moment and then asked, "Are you certain that you haven't

made a mistake?"

Without waiting for Lily's answer, he brushed off the idea. "No, no, you've been my student for so many years, and you'd never

make such a rookie mistake. The only possibility is that they're up to no good."

He turned and asked seriously, "Do you know what their experiment is for?"

He was concerned mainly because he was the one who got Lily involved in the first place.

When the old-timers at the research institute were going about the project, they tried to consult him through an old friend of his.

Without revealing much, they asked about the feasibility of their plan.

After thinking about it for quite a while, he felt it could work, and then they looked for someone to carry out the project.

As it involved perfumery, the older man thought about his precious student and recommended her through indirect connections.

He did so indirectly so that no one would know that Lily was his last student.

When Dominic was collecting medicinal herbs all over the place many years ago, he met Wilfred Lodge. Wilfred saved his life, and

Dominic spent more than four months in the man's house as he recovered from his injury. That was how he and Wilfred became

good friends.

It was then that he cto know Lily, who was a little girl at the time. As she showed an interest in botany and was gifted at it, he

half-jokingly took her on as a student and taught her sskills.

After he left their house, he sometimes stayed in touch with her, but he later led a reclusive life, and no one knew about his

relationship with Lily.

Later, Lily cto Kingsland and visited him when she had time. He was surprised to discover that the young woman was

genuinely talented.

Perhaps she had been exposed to many plants while working as a perfumer, and her knowledge was beyond his imagination.

Now that something was wrong with the project and it involved his precious student, he could not stay out of it.

"I have no idea. They're tight-lipped. I tried to probe but couldn't find any clues. However, | have a feeling it's not going to be used

for anything good." ‘Then don't do it!" The older man spoke his mind. ‘Their intention is unclear. You mustn't do it if it's something

that would cause harm."
