NovelEnglishChapter 1718
"Secretary Rollins, you suffered tremendous physical torment | during each bout of attack lately.Now that you're about to get rid |
of your suffering, shouldn't | congratulate you?"
Lily smiled and | spoke casually.
Looking calm, she did not seem to be joking and was bafflingly sure of herself.Cameron slightly narrowed his eyes.
"Who told you I've been suffering? I'm in good shape!"
Besides losing sweight and looking a bit worn, there was nothing off about him, especially his eyes.
Lily fixed her gaze on them.His brow was furrowed, and his eyes showed impatience and scrutiny.
However, his gaze was not dull, which was unusual if he was indeed under the influence of sdrug.
"Oh, yeah?"
Smiling, Lily suddenly raised her hand to pat his shoulder.
In shock, Cameron quickly moved aside and slapped her hand away, but it was a ruse.

Lily gently hit below his ribs with her other | hand before withdrawing the hand that was patting Cameron’s shoulder.
A sit was all too sudden, and she gave no warnings, Cameron looked stunned when he was hit.
"You..."
Before he could reprimand her, his expression changed as he | palmed the spot where he was hit and bent over.
"Ugh..."
“Dad!”
Alarmed, Anastasia hurriedly went over to support him.
"What's the matter?"
"You..."
Looking up shakily, the man stared at Lily.
With large beads of sweat forming on his forehead, he looked in such considerable pain that he could not even scold her.
"Lily, you..."
Seeing her father’s state, Anastasia becanxious and looked at Lily.
"Don’t panic."
Alexander was calm as he said, "Ms.Rollins, your father is in pain.Why don’t you help him inside first?"
Then, he pointed to the study since it was hard to talk while standing in the doorway.Catching herself, Anastasia helped Cameron
inside.
Although he was reluctant, it was so painful that he could hardly speak and could only stagger inward.
Once inside the study, Lily first glanced around.
It was not a large room, but there were many books, and it looked clean and tidy.
There was nothing else besides the bookcase, chairs, and desk.
"Lily..."
Anxious, Anastasia felt terrible seeing her father suffer.No matter how badly he had treated her recently, she still regarded him as
the person who loved her most.

Lily did not say much.
Moving a few steps forward, she took Cameron's wrist pulse.
Cameron attempted to resist her, but he was either powerless from the pain, or had second thoughts, so he eventually allowed Lily
to take his pulse.
Knowing that she had a reason for doing so, Alexander did not stop her.
It was not his first tin Cameron's study, but he had never faced such a situation.
Standing in front of the bookcase, he examined the titles.
They were mostly about military art and politics, so Alexander could not find anything unusual about them.
After a while, Lily slowly withdrew her hand.
Then, just as Anastasia was about to ask her questions, she saw Lily put her fingers on the side of Cameron's neck for a few
seconds before touching the back of his head.
Seeing what Lily was doing, Anastasia forgot about asking her question.She did not know what Lily was checking for but believed in
Lily from the bottom of her heart and remained quiet.
