Lahat ng Kabanata ng Spoiled by Mr. Russell: Kabanata 1971 - Kabanata 1980

Mike suddenly relaxed after seeing the agitated Rhea and the half-dead “boss.” He was interested in what Rhea had to say."So, tell me. How can we cooperate? How will we fight against the organization?" He asked, casually pulling over a chair to sit as he calmly engaged her.Rhea looked at him and said firmly, "I still have leverage.""Oh?" He raised his eyebrow and smiled. "What leverage? Don't tell me you have an even more powerful virus that can force the organization to listen to you.""What makes you think I don't?" She sneered, exuding an air of confidence.Mike noticed how she brimmed with confidence and started having doubts and hesitation from his initial questioning and disdain.‘Does she genuinely have something we can use?’"What's your leverage?" He asked again."It's none of your concern. You just have to know we have bargaining power," Rhea replied, "Mike, will you cooperate with me or not?"Mike collected his thoughts while lowering his gaze to the ground. He w

Mike was staggered by what Rhea said. He could not imagine her turning the “boss” into a guinea pig. Although he had witnessed humankind’s ugly side and many inhumane experiments, he found it hard to accept seeing how horrifying the man looked now.After all, hearing and witnessing something firsthand were wholly different experiences. The gory sight before Mike greatly affected him, but Rhea, having caused it, was unbothered.“Why are you…” Mike cleared his throat and continued, “Why are you so sure your experiment is what the organization wants? If they truly want it, I doubt you need to approach them, right? Perhaps what you think is great means nothing to them.”It was only a casual remark, but he hit her sore spot. Mike was right when he said the organization did not care about Rhea’s experiment. If they did, she would have openly conducted it with their support.Rhea only obeyed the “boss” and the organization to repay them for recognizing her skills. More importantly, her fa

“You could rescue your son,” Rhea said calmly, “When you find the organization, you will have the chance to save him, won’t you?”“I could still save my son without locating the organization.” Mike shook his head to signal she had failed to convince him to help her.However, Rhea sneered, “How will you do that?” Without waiting for his reply, she added, “If you could, you would’ve rescued him long ago, wouldn’t you?“As you said, your son is out of reach, so the place must be impenetrable. However, I could help you hold the organization’s key members hostage if we locate them. I’m sure the organization will be willing to exchange your son for them, don’t you think?”Mike felt tempted by what she said. He blamed himself for not thinking about that sooner. He had gradually lost his nerve to fight back, probably because they had forced him to do their bidding for too long.He had become so afraid of the organization that he did not even consider the possibility of kidnapping its memb

“Do you think the organization cares if she’s pregnant?” Rhea said coldly.Mike was at a loss for words.‘She’s right. Human lives mean nothing to Rhea, let alone to the inhumane organization. They only care about whether they can reach their goal and not bother about people’s lives. However, it matters to me!’Lily and Alexander had been doing their best to help Mike find his son even after what he had done. Mike knew he had to save Lily no matter what. Moreover, he had already failed to keep his promise to Alexander. ‘I’ll never forgive myself if Lily becomes a test subject!’“I’m willing to work with you, but you must listen to my instructions,” Mike said after taking a deep breath.Rhea raised her brow, but before she could say more, he added, “Well, you can forget it if you disagree. I know you’re good at using poisons, but no one else can help you locate the organization if you kill me. Furthermore…”After a pause, he said, “You can’t even show up in public after what you

Austin felt a surge of shame when he saw the blood and remembered how Dominic had cared for himself when he was sick. “I’m so sorry, Uncle Dom!”“Sorry, my *ss!” Dominic suddenly spoke, to his astonishment.Austin was overjoyed. “Uncle Dom, you’re awake!”Dominic had been in a stupor since Alexander left. The older man sometimes moaned and coughed but had never woken up or even opened his eyes. However, to Austin’s surprise, Dominic opened his eyes and spoke.“I’m not dead yet, all right?” Although the older man was weak, he was still as feisty as before, and Austin was grateful for that.“Thank goodness you finally woke up! Not only are you not dead, you’ll also live a long life, I’m sure,” he said as he hugged Dominic tightly.“Hey… Hey…” Dominic could hardly breathe.Austin quickly let go and looked at him. “Are you thirsty? Would you like some water, or are you hungry? How about some food?”Dominic hardly ate anything for the past two days and was thin now. Previously, Aust
