Chapter 1569
'The lab's secret?!” Lily instinctively raised her voice in surprise.
'The lab again?! It seems like everything is linked to the lab! I’ve only been away for two days, yet
many things have happened. What other secrets does the lab have?’
"Yeah." Anastasia did not know what was happening in the laboratory. She was just looking for
someone to vent to. Since she did not have any friends, Lily was the first to come to mind.
"What's the lab's secret?" Lily cautiously asked as she held her breath.
As expected, Anastasia said, "I don't know. My cousin said it was severe and that she had to talk to my
dad alone. Then they went into the study room and talked. When they came out, she seemed to have
swayed my father.

the vaccine development project."
Anastasia seemed much calmer after talking for a while. She hardly cried anymore. However, she still
sounded pitiful. ’Lily, what do you think my cousin told my dad? All these years, I've never seen anyone
change my father's mind with just a few words."
Lily did not reply. She was deep in thought as she stared into the distance.
The forest ahead was dense and luxuriant, covering the sky. There was no end to it as Lily envisioned
herself walking around the forest aimlessly. There were trees everywhere, so each turn was a mystery.
She was trapped in a maze that she could not escape.
'Everything seems related to the lab, but what's the link between them?1
’Lily?"
"I’m afraid it's not just a few words that caused your father's mind to change," Lily answered lightly.
Anastasia was stunned. "What do you mean?"
"Nevermind. Maybe what’s going on in the lab is so serious that he could see past your poisoning for
the time being." After taking a deep breath, Lily forced herself to smoothen her brows and softly said,
"Whatever it is, I think you should trust your father, Tasia."
"Trust him?" Anastasia felt aggrieved. "I've been poisoned for so long! He knows better than anyone
else about the torture and pain I’ve experienced. How can he let this go and forgive my cousin? How
can I trust him on this?"
Although she had no intention of sending her cousin to jail, she did not intend to let this matter slide just
like that. She knew it was too easy on Rhea if they just let it slide. How could she undo all the
emotional harm and torture Anastasia had suffered for all these years?

disregard her because of a secret. How could Anastasia ever trust him again?
Lily could hear the pain in Anastasia's voice. She understood where Anastasia was coming from, so all
she could do was comfort her. ’You know how much your father loves you. How can you doubt his love
just because of this?’
These words struck Anastasia's heartstrings as she fell silent.
When she was a child, she used to think that her father did not spend enough time with her and was
always very strict. As she grew, she gradually understood that it was just a front. On the contrary,
Cameron pampered her a lot. She started to accept and bathe in his love.
