His Secret Spoiled Wife (Lily and Alexander) novel Chapter 1245

"What's the matter with you guys? Why aren't you answering me?"

After entering the laboratory, Austin asked again, "You’re all professionals and have been in this industry for decades. Why are you letting yourself get tangled up in a woman's web? Are you no better than a woman?"

"Mr. Fike, it's not that we're underestimating ourselves. Ms. Christian has the capabilities we don't have in this area. Sometimes we don’t even know why the experiments fail. However, Ms. Christian found the crux immediately. Just a simple sentence from her can change the final results quite drastically," someone answered.

Everyone admired Lily for the skills she had. Her presence convinced them that this project could be a success. Therefore, when they heard that she was pulling out, they took a blow to their morale.

"Hmph!" Austin snorted disapprovingly. "You can't find the crux because you're incompetent. It's not because of how good she is. If the experiment fails, keep trying! It's not that hard to adjust the steps accordingly. It's obvious you guys are just slackers."

"Mr. Fike, if that's the case, show us what adjustments we can make. After all, we're incompetent. We're running out of options," another person called out with a hint of anger, putting his hands up in surrender.

The people in charge had selected those working on this project to be here. They would feel upset if anyone called them incompetent.

"I don't think any adjustments are needed at all!" Austin glanced lightly at the test tubes on the experiment table and then at the computer screen.

"In my opinion, the unique scent of the medicinal herbs is representative of itself. Mixing it with all sorts of commercial herbs would pollute it. We should keep the medicinal herbs as pure as possible." His face was disdainful as he tried to throw the project out the window.

Hearing this, everyone exchanged blank glances in dismay.
