Alexander was very thoughtful.
However, judging from how Greg acted, Alexander had probably trained him.
The security measures of this place were also very well planned.
"Then..."
After pondering for a moment, Lily asked softly, "Where's Edward?"
Alexander fell silent as soon as he heard that name, and his face turned solemn.

"Then don't tell her anything yet.Wait until | hear back from my men," Alexander said firmly with a nod.
