Chapter 1262


    The trio stayed quiet. Cayden and Colby stood at one side, looking at Lucian examining theb counter


    with different thoughts running through their minds. Colby was nervous to the extent of almost


    forgetting to breathe.Given a choice, he wouldn’t be willing to heed Lucian’s order to restore the scene


    during the day of the experiment because that would easily expose his wrongdoing.Still, if Colby had


    refused to follow Lucian’s instruction, that would be no different from dering his guilt to the


    latter.After mulling his options over, he had no choice but to restore the arrangement of the medicines


    on theb table, albeit with a slight alternation. He could only hope Lucian wouldn’t notice anything


    suspicious.Lucian was oblivious to Colby’s train of thought. He was focused on inspecting the


    medicines on theb table, meticulously checking every item.While doing that, he recalled every detail


    he saw on the surveince footage that day.Lucian clearly remembered Roxanne had touched all of the


    bottles on the table.All of a sudden, he fixated his gaze on a transparent bottle ced in the corner for


    a few seconds before turning around to speak to Colby. “Bring me to the surveince room


    again.”Colby’s pupils constricted as uneasiness filled him.He had noticed Lucian staring at the bottle for


    a prolonged time. Why is that? Did he discover something?Colby’s hand, hanging by his sides,


    trembled uncontrobly when he considered that possibility.However, under Lucian’s watchful gaze,


    Colby could only tuck his hands into his white coat’s pockets, feign calmness, and nod. “Okay.”After


    saying that, he spun on his heels and guided them to the surveince room.Lucian yed the


    surveince footage from that day and studied the video carefully again.As he expected, when


    Roxanne was doing the experiment, she identally knocked over the transparent bottle at the side


    but hastily picked it up the next second. Although the differences were insignificant, that bottle was not


    the same size as the one Colby had currently ced on theb table.Besides that, the quantities of the


    medicine inside the bottles were also dissimr.Lucian shifted his gaze onto the Colby onscreen, who


    was standing behind Roxanne.He didn’t believe Colby, who had spent so many years working at the


    research institute, would fail to distinguish between the two bottles of medicines.Unless he did it on


    purpose.“Mr. Farwell, did you notice anything?” Colby suppressed his anxiousness and asked warily,This content ? N?v/elDr(a)m/a.Org.


    attempting to seize control of the situation.Lucian nced at him with an unfathomable look in his eyes.


    “Nothing for now. I’m afraid I’ll have to trouble you to keep that particr table in that state, Dr.


    Galloway.”Hearing that, Colby took a deep breath. His facial expression rxed imperceptibly. “Okay.


    I’ll do my best.”Lucian bobbed his head. After that, he got up and left the surveince room without


    taking another look at the surveince footage.Cayden followed closely behind him.After exiting the


    research institute, Cayden started the car. “Mr. Farwell, are we returning to thepany now, or is


    there any other ce you wish to visit?”Lucian nced at the research institute’s entrance while


    wearing a grimace.Colby stood there reverently to see them off.Looking away, Lucian replied, “Go back


    to the office. Also, I want to see all the recent purchase orders by the research facility by


    tonight.”Cayden agreed with crity, started the car, and drove toward Farwell Group.At the research


    institute’s entrance, Colby’s legs turned to jelly after Lucian’s car disappeared from his vision.Lucian


    had disyed an ambiguous response earlier, causing Colby to be unable to ascertain whether Lucian


    had discovered he was the culprit.And because of that, Colby felt all the more terrified.
