Spoiled by mr. russell chapter 1926-Lily laughed mockingly.
“So, you’re saying we don’t need evidence at all? As long as you want to do it, you can, right? The
boss has only disappeared briefly, and you’re already here, showcasing your power.Are you saying
everything will be your call if the boss is gone? If that’s the case, you’re the prime suspect!”
Lily downplayed herself and shifted the blame back unto Rhea in just a few sentences.
“I…”
Shocked momentarily, Rhea immediately retorted, “I didn’t say that!”
She swallowed her words angrily, feeling Rick’s calm eyes on her.
The back of her spine felt a little chilly.She had met Rick several times, but not enough.
However, she knew he often appeared by the boss’s side.
He was a man of very few words and always seemed indifferent.
His actions were always cruel and vicious.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtRhea accidentally ran into him once while he was punishing someone.
Even though she had grown accustomed to various experiments and bloodshed, she still felt sick at
that scene.
Later, an inexplicable fear of Rick formed in her, the kind she could not control as it hit her heart’s core.
“Have you searched everywhere?” Rick asked Mike again.
Mike nodded affirmatively.
“I’ve searched everywhere, even under the carpets.We’ve searched all the secret rooms we know of
here.”
Hearing this, Rick fell silent.
Lily, who had been trying to stay out of this matter, spoke up.
“I have a question.”
Everyone looked at her.
Rhea was about to come up with a sarcastic answer before quickly swallowing her words.
Rick nodded slightly, motioning for Lily to speak.
“As you all have said, I’m not loyal to the boss, and I’m not affected by his disappearance.Whether he
disappears or not has nothing to do with me.”
She shrugged indifferently before continuing, “What I care more about is, are we continuing this
experiment as usual? “My experiment is almost complete, and I know the boss valued this project a
lot.I know the higher-ups probably think very highly of it as well.However, now that something like this
has happened, do we focus on—”
She paused momentarily as her eyes darted from Rick to Mike and finally to Rhea.
“Looking for the boss or continuing the experiment?”
“Of course, we—”
Just as Mike was about to say, ‘Look for the boss, ’ he caught himself and looked at Rick.
Lily saw the power dynamic here.
On the surface, the trio were equal.
However, both seemed more afraid of Rick and would always turn to him.
Meanwhile, Lily remained objective and indifferent, without a hint of anxiety.
It was usual for her.Everyone here knew she came here unwillingly and got forced to work.
Now that the boss had gone missing, it would be suspicious if she suddenly became worried or
anxious.
Rick pondered momentarily before slowly saying, “We’ll have to look for the boss and continue the
experiment simultaneously.We’ll handle the search while you…”
He paused before continuing, “You and Miss Moore continue the experiment.You two must complete
the experiment according to plan! Mr.Corden and I will look for the boss.”
Lily raised her eyebrows.
“Do your words count?”
Rick probably did not realize the underlying meaning of Lily’s question and replied in a daze, ‘”My
words always count, and I will always do what I say.”
“No, I’m saying, since the boss isn’t here now, are you the second in command?”
Lily smiled while looking at Rick meaningfully
