"I heard that she is The Great Chemist's apprentice." Eddie frowned. "Can she detoxify the poison?"
It was only a rumor that Lily was the apprentice of The Great Chemist, and no one had confirmed it. Thus, Eddie needed to learn Lily's fundamental skills.
Brandon shrugged indifferently. He was confident, as the poisons in their laboratory were highly deadly. "So what if she really is The Great Chemist's apprentice? She's only five. I don't think she can do anything about the poison."
"But Hanson was detoxified, remember? And also one of his kids." Eddie had lost the means to control Hanson.
Brandon didn't have any explanation for that, but he refused to believe that a child could have the skills to detoxify the poison. "Maybe it's just a coincidence, or maybe The Great Chemist gave them an antidote or something."
Hanson was so fortunate to know The Great Chemist in person.
Eddie, however, did not share the same opinion as Brandon. "You can't be too careful."
He could foresee Yvonne's wrath if he failed again. Meanwhile, another idea flashed in his mind. "Maybe, we can think of a way to convince her to be on our side."
If they could get Lily to submit to them, it would mean that The Great Chemist would be on their side too.
Brandon nodded in agreement with his plan. "What a brilliant idea. I'll make the necessary arrangements immediately."
"Good."
…
On the other hand, Thomas frowned as he read the news on his phone.
There were many different opinions about Bryan's incident and the malfunctioned wire machine. Nevertheless, most people commented that someone tried to kill him, which was in line with Thomas' assumption.
"Did something happen to Yvonne?" Jasmine, who noticed Thomas' complicated expression as he locked his gaze on his phone, involuntarily presumed that something terrible had happened to Yvonne.
"Yes, something did happen to her," Thomas grunted in an ambiguous tone. He then looked at Jasmine and added, "She did something she shouldn't have done."
Nonetheless, all Jasmine heard was that something had really happened to Yvonne and nothing else.
"What?!" Tears began to fall from her eyes as she demanded anxiously. "What happened to her? Is she injured? Is it serious?"
In her opinion, Yvonne would be easily injured since she ran away from home.
"Mom, she's an adult. Can you not think of her as weak and feeble?"
