His Secret Spoiled Wife (Lily and Alexander) novel Chapter 1579

“You’re back!” the man said with his back to her. All she could see was the tall executive chair, not him.

Rhea stood where she was and said, “Yes, sir.”

“How did it go?”

“There would soon be a tender event, and the project would fall into Fabian Moore’s hands. Our lab could then be placed within the vaccine development center.” Rhea paused for a moment. “Before I came, I went over to take a look. It has a good environment and is well-equipped. The government has also poured in a lot of money and resources, which would boost us.”

“Terrific!” He sounded satisfied, but his voice was awful.

Rhea picked her ear, despite herself.

“But why is it taking so long? Can’t they just give the project to Fabian Moore?” He seemed to be impatient.

“No, there’s a protocol to follow. If not, people might get suspicious and criticize how it’s done, which would be bad for us,” Rhea explained.

“It’s troublesome to operate in your country, isn’t it?” He snorted dismissively.

Rhea raised her brow. “I’m afraid you’ve forgotten that Hyderland is no longer my country, as I’ve become a citizen of Roseroot. I’m your fellow citizen.”

The man let out a shrill laugh and turned his chair around with a horrible grin. “You? Who do you think you are? Do you think getting the citizenship of Roseroot means you’ve become the superior race? You and your inferior race should be proud of being able to stand near me!”

Rhea frowned and did not retort.

“Rhea, if I had not allowed you to join us without the data and information I’ve given you, could you have made such an achievement? When the experiment succeeds in the future, the whole world will be in awe of you. Do you know whom you should be thankful for?” He lifted his chin and asked arrogantly.
