My Substitute Wife is a Bigwig (Loud and Lily) novel Chapter 243

Lily kept her head down, the brim of her cap casting a shadow over her face. Though the others couldn't see her expression, they could feel the sudden tension in the room. She stood there like a demon from hell, exuding a chilling air.

Sensing something wrong, Loid asked softly, "What happened?"

Lily looked at him and replied coldly, "My grandmother had a relapse. The hospital and the Medical Research Institute are out of the special antidote."

Loid's face fell. He patted her head gently. "Don't worry, I'll figure it out."

With that, he stepped out with his phone.

Lily stood frozen for a long moment before finally moving. As she turned around to leave, she cast a fierce glance at the Lauriers, making them feel a shiver run down their spines.

Then, without a word, she walked out the door.

Loid made several calls, his expression growing darker with each one. After the last call, he looked at Lily and said, "This morning, someone took all the special antidotes from the research institute, and the hospital's supply was stolen. There's none left in the entire country."

His tone was as cold as ever.

Loid had already provided the hospital with extra antidotes just in case someone with malicious intentions wanted to target Belinda. Yet, he hadn't anticipated that someone would take all the special antidotes.

Hearing that, Lily looked up at him. "I need to make a call."

Finding a secluded spot, she opened her WhatsApp, found Elliot's contact, and video-called him.

Elliot quickly answered. Seeing a young face on the other end, Elliot was momentarily stunned. "Who are you? Why do you have K's phone?"

"It's me, K," Lily said, her face expressionless.

Elliot was speechless for a long while. He was utterly shocked. He thought he was hearing things. "Who did you say you were?"
