Spoiled by Mr. Russell의 모든 챕터: 챕터 1761 - 챕터 1770

Olivia did not feel like drinking the milk. However, she knew Lily would not continue if she did not calm down and drink the milk. Ultimately, Olivia took the glass and sipped it.Knowing how Olivia felt, Lily held her hand and looked into her eyes, saying, “Of course, it wasn’t my experiment, but I once took part in it. That’s why I know something.”“You once took part in it?” Olivia looked at Lily doubtfully with a frown, then suddenly remembered. “You’re talking about the research institute? B-But isn’t that place abandoned now? I heard its personnel disbanded, and the experiment had completely failed.”“It didn’t fail but has gone underground. These people haven’t given up, and their actions have a broad impact. I can’t tell you in detail, but I can tell you that there is such an experiment, and they have indeed come up with many strange drugs.“I’m unsure if Edward has been under one of the drugs’ influence, but his shift in personality likely has something to do with the orga

Without waiting for Olivia to answer, Lily quickly added, “I don’t even remember what you said.”“Lily…”“Enough. If you take me as a friend, stop blaming yourself, okay? If I were you, I would be upset as well. What you did was normal, and I bet you felt sad when you said those things.” Lily could understand how she felt. She would surely side with her husband if she chose between Alexander and Edward.Olivia felt she needed to apologize since she and Lily were friends. Olivia would side with who was most important to her if she had to choose.“But…”Lily grabbed Olivia’s hand. Then Lily cleared her throat and said thoughtfully, “No buts, okay? Stop dwelling on it. I know you were in a tight spot. We’re not just partners but also good friends!”Lily smiled at Olivia and appeared casual before continuing, “Since we’re friends, we shouldn’t get hung up on this. I don’t, so you shouldn’t, too, okay?”Since she had put it that way, Olivia knew she would be too petty if she did not

A gentle and cozy breeze brushed past his face. He could faintly hear the chirping of birds and the gurgling of water when he caught the familiar scent of herbs. The light before him made his vision a bit blurry and hazy. In a trance, he seemed to have arrived at a meadow filled with blooming flowers and precious herbs. He looked through his medical book, one by one, selecting the herbs he needed and placing them in a basket. As he turned around, however, he stepped on thin air and fell endlessly into what seemed like a bottomless abyss.“Argh-” he screamed, but it was not loud, more like a whimper. He snapped awake, his eyes wide and drenched in sweat. Clenching his hands at his sides with his eyes widening, he was soaked through and gasping for fresh air as if he had just crawled up from a deep pond. Mingled with the scent of herbal medicine, the air filled his lungs. It was only then that he gradually regained his senses. “You’re awake, huh?” The familiar voice was calm.

Austin sat quietly, then got up and left his room. The spacious house seemed unusually quiet, with no signs of anyone around. He noticed the open backyard door, crossed the hall, and went outside.When he arrived at the backyard, he caught the unique scent of various herbs. Dominic stood thoughtfully among the herbs with his hands behind his back.Austin did not interrupt his granduncle and remained quiet for a while. When he turned to leave, he heard Dominic’s voice, “Since you’ve regained some strength, why don’t you help me pick some herbs?”Austin was surprised but still walked over and picked up the basket Dominic had placed aside.“I’ve written whatever I need, but can you still recognize them?” Dominic pointed forward with his chin without looking at his grandnephew.Austin gazed down and saw a piece of paper inside the basket. Several names of uncommonly used herbs were on it, but he knew what they looked like. Austin smiled, swung the basket over his shoulder, and walked

“Of course, it has something to do with it! If you hadn’t studied herbal medicine, you wouldn’t have gone to that so-called research institute and met that b*tch who put you through this!” Michelle blamed everything on her son’s profession.‘If he hadn’t studied this, he wouldn’t have gone there and suffered so much. Thinking back, I shouldn’t have let him learn herbal medicine from Dominic in the first place.’Austin grew somewhat upset when he heard what his mother said. “If that’s the cause, perhaps you shouldn’t have given birth to me. I wouldn't have suffered if I weren’t even born, right?”“Are you…” Michelle also got upset and was on the verge of crying. “Are you blaming me now?”“No, I’m just trying to point out that it has nothing to do with me learning herbal medicine. The guilty ones are the perpetrators who don’t value human lives, not us, okay?” Austin held his mother’s shoulder.Then he patiently continued, “I know you feel bad for me, but you shouldn’t say that.
