Spoiled by mr. russell chapter 2152-Mike would have some peace if Alexander cared for Nick.
“Hey!” Alexander pushed Mike’s hand off his shoulder and said, “Take care of Nick yourself, got it? Just stay positive and stop worrying. Austin’s been through a lot, but he’s doing fine, right?”
Austin was surprised. He did not expect Alexander to cue him to say something. The former shrugged and smiled awkwardly, saying, “Life goes on. Besides, it’s not the end of the world yet.
“We might still have a chance to do something,” Austin paused momentarily and added, “Can you guess why they haven’t started the experiment’s last phase?”
Mike blinked. “Why?”
Alexander pondered for a moment. “It’s not the time yet.”
“That’s right! I think so, too! They have Lily, and they’ve abandoned the lab. Why don’t they start the last phase now? It must have something to do with timing. Then what are they waiting for?” Austin rubbed his chin.
Mike recalled what he knew, “They wanted Lily to recover from her delivery. They’re probably waiting for her body to reach an optimal state.”
“No, I don’t think that’s entirely it.” Austin shook his head. “Indeed, childbirth takes a toll on a woman’s health, and full recovery takes a long time. They wouldn’t have needed to detain her so early if they needed to wait this long for the final phase.
“There are many other ways to do it if they only intend to keep her close. Also, with today’s medical technology, they might not need her to recover fully and continue the experiment.”
“So, what do you think they’re waiting for?” Alexander looked at Austin.
‘Austin is no longer his old self after experiencing so many hardships. His medical skills seemed to have improved significantly,’ Alexander thought.
“I don’t know, either,” Austin answered. He only knew about the laboratory, the experiments, and the viruses. However, he never came into direct contact with those in the organization or knew who they were.
