Dear Ex-wife Marry Me novel (Maja) novel Chapter 1556

"I do want it, but the Chairman's proposal hasn't been approved yet."

With that thing in hand, there'd be no need to worry about Ian and his crew's fate. Phil's gaze drifted toward the glass wall.

The wall was rather thick, bulletproof, offering a 360-degree panoramic view. Even the most intimate acts between two people would unfold under the watchful eyes of everyone.

The humans inside this transparent enclosure lived without dignity, treated like pigs in a pen, even worse than pigs; they were lab rats, bred for experimentation.

Philip checked on the weapon every few hours, his longing growing stronger each time.

Around its neck was a tiny emerald bead, an ornament it had worn for years - a simple piece of jade, so mundane that the research base didn't bother to remove it. Ironically, this gave the weapon an extra touch of identity.

It was the only Rocky rodent adorned with any kind of jewelry.

Philip then visited his mentor, only to find her furiously arguing on the phone before slamming it against the wall.

"Professor?"

Isaac's venomous face softened as she saw her student, and she took a seat nearby.

"Philip, you know that Sarah?"

Sarah was a famed scientist at the base, her hands in many projects. She was the only one the higher-ups seemed to favor, breaking numerous rules for her. She'd been at the base for over two decades.

"I know of her."

"That witch is always stealing my thunder. I recommended you for promotion, but she shot it down."

Philip frowned; he had never met this person, only heard of her reputation. She was a research fiend, mostly holed up in the most secretive labs, rarely seen outside.
