However, no one within the organization except the “boss” and the top leader knew each other’s identity and background, including Mike and Rhea.
Seeing the worker behaving poorly toward Lily gave Mike a strange feeling. He did not know who the woman was as he could not get a good look at her face.
Still, he knew the standoff was not good, so he stepped forward and said, “Mrs. Russell isn’t ordering you, but the boss says Mrs. Russell can use anything here at her discretion. Since she asks you to put it down, please do so.”
“Why should I?” The woman showed Mike no respect and let out a throaty, gurgling laugh. “I’m carrying my experiment’s result. If she’s so capable, she can do it herself. Didn’t she just claim she could succeed without our data?”
“Since it’s part of the experiment, it belongs here.” Lily raised her brows. “Why? Are you scared?”
“It’s useless to try to goad me.” The worker turned away. “I don’t wish to waste my time on you guys!”
Lily stared at the woman’s back and said casually, “Are you afraid of wasting time or letting others see that you’ve failed again?”
Mike was baffled.
However, Lily’s words infuriated the woman. She suddenly turned around, her husky and shrill voice sounding, “What the f*ck are you guys saying? How dare you claim I failed when you don’t know what it is? Do you think you’re so f*cking great to stand her and spout nonsense?!”
