"No," Alexander said. "We checked all surveillance footage and didn’t find anyone poisoning it. We also
sent the food residue for testing and found no traces of poison."
"So, what about the water supply if it's not the food?" Lily asked after some thought.
"I thought about that too and had it checked as well."
'If it's not the food and water supply, and the mass poisoning is not an accident, then it's rather bizarre.’
"Can it be an accident? Where were the workers, or whom had they come in contact with?" Lily knitted
her brow. She wanted to help her husband solve the problem as soon as possible.
Since people had died, they had to find out what happened and give an explanation to those people’s

"Based on our investigation, these workers stayed and had their meals at the factory. They haven’t
been in contact with outsiders over the past few days." After a pause, he said, "We’re still investigating,
and I believe we'll get to the bottom of what happened. Don't worry too much, okay?"
A static noise disrupted Alexander's voice, and the call started to break up toward the end.
"I know. Watch your health, okay? Also, the situation over there has been a bit chaotic lately. You must
protect yourself well." Lily learned from the news that the region was rife with wars, and she was
worried.
"I know. I'll be fine!" Alexander said something else, but Lily could no longer hear it clearly.
"What?" She covered one ear and asked.
"Nothing. The signal is bad here, so I'll tell you later, okay? Stop worrying!" He stressed again.
"Okay, I know..." Before she could finish talking, a dial tone came from the other end. The signal was
not stable, as he said. However, Lily could finally set her heart at rest a little.
Nonetheless, Alexander was still safe and just tired, judging from his voice. It seemed to Lily that he
had a trickier problem, but she could not fly over to help him and could only wait.
She felt that being apart was a tormenting experience for the first time. ’It's so nerve-wracking!'
Back home, Maria felt pleased with herself, thinking that the miracle doctor was indeed something else.
'His words were shocking, and he has also shaken Tasia. It serves her right since she keeps talking

supposed to get busy with the bid submission? How come you've been so free these days? I’m
exhausted from running around!"
As Maria spoke, she flopped down on the chair and asked a housekeeper to bring her tea and snacks.
"I’m not in a hurry." Fabian raised a brow and said indifferently, "You shouldn’t be either! This project is
within our grasp. What else should I be doing besides drinking?"
"You're that confident?"
'He worried about this and that two days ago, and now he has become so cocksure?’
"Of course!" Fabian was smug. "Alexander Russell hasn’t returned from overseas yet, and there's no
news of him. I think he might be dead, and even if he's okay, he wouldn't be able to make it to the
