“Dashiell Stone!”‘ Edmund stopped and turned to face him solemnly.
“You made a mistake in the data last time.I hope you won’t repeat it!”
A trace of impatience immediately flashed across Dashiell’s face when Edmund mentioned the mistake.
Dashiell sighed and put his arm around Edmund’s shoulder.
“I know, I know! It’s just a tiny mistake! You can tell at a glance that I didn’t do it on purpose! “Dr.Morris,
you’re the best.What about a drink as a toast to how good you’ve been to all of us?”
“No drinking during working hours!” Edmund frowned.
“Where do you even get the alcohol?”
The department prepared every meal here, and they could not go home to drink at will.
Where were they going to have a toast? Dashiell burst out laughing when he saw the look on Edmund’s
face.

all over.We must go out to drink as a celebration.It’s my way of thanking you!”
“It’s part of my duty.”
Edmund heaved a sigh of relief when he heard it was just a joke.He was about to turn to leave when
Dashiell blocked him again with a smile.
“Dr.Morris, can I ask you a question?”
“What is it?”
Edmund answered coldly.He was in a rush, yet Dashiell kept bugging him.
Although he was starting to lose his patience, Dashiell was still his colleague.
On top of that, Dashiell had just returned from studying abroad and had picked up their culture.
Therefore, he could be more outgoing than the people here.
“How well do you know Dr.Russell?”
He gestured behind him and said in a low voice.
Edmund did not answer.
“Didn’t you and Dr.Blanc go to look for Mr.Fike together? You should know best.How did such a young
girl end up joining our team? That woman…Where did she come from?”
Dashiell took out a cigarette and handed it to Edmund as he b.e.a.n spoke. Edmund frowned as he
stared at the cigarette.
“This is not a smoking area.”
“Oh…”
Dashiell stuffed the cigarette back into his pocket and smiled awkwardly.
“Look at you.You don’t smoke or drink and seem to care for yourself very well.I’m not trying to pry
here.I’m just looking out for our department.

“Look, although we’ve signed a non-disclosure agreement before coming in, we still know a thing or two
about each other.You’re a top student from the top medical university in Hyderland, and I’m a medical
graduate from abroad.This research center comprises various talented individuals, and even Dr.Blanc
has years of experience, but that woman…Does Dr.Blanc trust her?”
Edmund fell silent.
Dr.Blanc did trust her, probably for Dominic’s sake.
However, through recent observations, even Edmund started to feel that Lily was talented.
On top of that, the mice in the experiment had been injected with the virus.
While other mice were either dead or still recovering, those Lily had fed with traditional herbs were alive
and kicking.
From a data point of view, her medicine seemed more practical.
“Dr.Morris?” Dashiell called out, seeing that he did not respond.
