NovelEnglish"You're crazy! Even if you can rescue Nicky, you'll be arrested!" Austin said. "Or do you plan not to return to Hyderland ever
again?"
"Why not?" Mike was not hesitant at all. "It doesn't matter where I go as long as I can keep my son safe."
"I'll go with you then," Lily suddenly said.
Everyone was shocked, including Mike.
"You?" Mike caught himself and shook his head. "No, I don't need you. As I said, what I do has nothing to do with you guys. Just
pretend you didn't hear what I said."
the others was by asking them to feign ignorance.
"Don't be silly!" Lily approached Mike and patted his shoulder, saying, "How can you shoulder this alone? You all helped Alex
rescue me and my children, didn't you? Besides, even if you have firearms and know the embassy's layout, do you know where

Even though Alexander was on good terms with Cameron, the latter would never be biased to anyone.
Therefore, since they were all in the same boat, Mike should not even think about doing it alone.
Austin nodded repeatedly, agreeing with the others, "Lily's right. We've always treated you as a friend.Do you think we worry
about being implicated? We're better than that okay?"
Alexander said gently, "I'm sorry I couldn't help much in this matter, but... I hope I can help you rescue Nicky.”.
