Semua Bab Spoiled by Mr. Russell: Bab 1801 - Bab 1810

“Great!” Lily heard the other person reply, but she still had not caught sight of him yet. She could only see that Mike was facing a huge office chair. However, it did not seem like anyone was sitting on it from behind. “Ms. Christian, it’s a pleasure to meet you!” With that, the office chair turned around slowly, and Lily finally saw the mastermind behind all this.She was surprised that the person who controlled Mike, forced him to succumb to his threats, committed all the hideous things, and planned the series of disasters was so small!With her widened eyes, she stared at the tiny man before her. The first thing that came into her mind was, ‘If he were standing up, he would just be slightly taller than Gale, right?’His limbs were stunted, and he had a mask on his face. The parts that were showing had hideous scars, and his dark, unsettling eyes were on Lily.His gaze alone was enough to make someone feel uneasy, even though he had said nothing and his hands were resting la

Provoking the man was a risk Lily decided to take. On the surface, she appeared calm, stroking her belly lightly, but her fist clenched subconsciously. She had to be alert to prevent them from poisoning or tricking her.Mike gulped subtly and glanced at the man through his peripheral vision, observing every change in his expression. The man smirked and squinted as he stared at Lily. He let out his signature shrill and ear-piercing laughter a few seconds later. “Hahaha!”Mike had no words while Lily turned her head to the side and dug her ears.“You’re right! No one knows what will happen tomorrow or even the next second!” The man appeared to agree with Lily. “Still, I can assure you one thing. If you dare to play tricks with me, I will ensure an accident falls upon your family! Even if I’m going to die, I will drag a few people down with me!”With that, he let out boisterous laughter again.Lily stared at him with pursed lips while her fingers dug into her palms. It was painful. S

Lily first looked at Mike, then averted her gaze from the tiny man before her, rejecting his request upfront, “No! I have my family, friends, and career out there. How will I contact them if I give you my phone? I’m here to work for your organization, not to become your prisoner.“Plus, whatever I have on my phone is my private information. How could I turn it in? Also, how would I ensure you guys won’t harm my family the second I turn my phone in? I need to know they’re safe at all times!”“You’re overthinking.” The man replied slowly, “Since you’re willing to cooperate with us, you’re part of us. Why would we make things difficult for our people? Plus, we don’t need to do anything for your family. We wouldn’t want to cause any problems here, either.”That made Lily sneer. “What a joke! It’s not like you guys haven’t hurt anyone for no reason at all before this. You don’t trust me, and likewise, I don’t trust you. In what way can I be sure that you won't create problems for your ow

A moment of silence later, Mike still could not hold himself back. “I promised Alex I’d keep you safe, so I won’t let you die here.”His tone was determined as he repeated his promise, even if Lily did not take the matter to heart. She walked around the room and realized it was pretty small but much better than where she stayed when she worked for X Department.All the bedding and other necessities were prepared. Then she looked at the bathroom and breathed a sigh of relief when she noticed they did not install any surveillance cameras in her room or the bathroom. If they did, that would rid her of all privacy.After dealing with this matter for quite some time, she was already tired and pulled a chair closer to take a seat. When she noticed Mike still standing at the door, looking demure, she said softly, “It’s okay. I didn’t choose to do this in the heat of the moment, so you don’t have to get so worked up over this.“Even if I didn’t say those things, they wouldn’t keep me here

Lily knew the building was unique, confirming her guess after stepping in. Firstly, the place was built with unique materials. It had a large number of acoustic pads on the walls and had more vents than ordinary buildings.The place's lighting was not ideal, so it was a little dark and would make anyone feel depressed. Still, the lighting should not have been so terrible, judging from the building’s architecture. Hence, there was only one reason to explain the situation—it was done deliberately as a protective measure.The hallway had warm lights, but the wattage must have been low because it was still quite dim. Walking through the hallway made Lily feel like she was entering another world, not to mention the door that closed behind them with a bang.Startled by the sound, Lily turned to look before averting her gaze to Mike. He seemed calm, evidently used to it, and said without surprise, “You’ll get used to it soon.”Lily just let out a mocking laugh. ‘Mike is wrong because I’
