Spoiled by mr. russell chapter 2040 -Edward soon returned to the car. Alexander sat and leaned into a
chair instead of sitting straight as usual.
“Collaborate with you? How?” Alexander asked calmly.
“I have resources and expertise while you have money and workforce. Together, we can potentially
outperform the organization.” Rhea stood up, her eyes full of hope.
Alexander chuckled. “Did you tell that to Mike too?”
“Of course!” Rhea did not try to hide it and smiled disdainfully. “Still, he’s useless. You, on the other
hand, are different. You’re wealthier, more powerful, and also smarter than him!”
Her compliment failed to please Alexander as he asked, “Where’s Cameron?”
“Somewhere safer, of course. The house isn’t some heavily fortified prison—anyone can easily break
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtin. Keeping him here was just a temporary measure. Besides, I told that idiot, Mike, about this place.
“It’s only a matter of time before you show up uninvited.” Rhea was smug, as if everything happened as
she had expected.
“You’re smart, all right,” Alexander complimented.
Rhea grew prouder. “Of course I am. So? Do you want to collaborate with me? We have a thing against
the organization. Besides, I can help you rescue Lily. Isn’t my offer tempting enough?”
“You think you can?” Alexander was incredulous.
Rhea nodded but knew he did not believe her. “I can pretend to make a deal with the organization. If I
can offer a better alternative, they won’t have to sacrifice Lily. All I need now is someone to lead me to
them, and I know you can!”
“You have that much faith in me, huh?” Alexander chuckled. “Do you think I’ll work with you?”
“Why not? I have Cameron Rollins, and you need to save Lily. It’s a win-win situation if we work
together. Also, it benefits you more than me, so you have no reason to turn me down.” Rhea was
confident he would say yes.
However, Alexander shook his head slightly. “You’re wrong. I’ll never collaborate with you because our
beliefs and principles fundamentally differ.”
“Don’t you want to save Lily? Don’t you care about Cameron’s life?” Rhea took two steps forward and
watched as Alexander turned away.
‘How can he walk away from my deal? He must be bluffing!’
“I’ll rescue my wife myself. As for Cameron, do you think he’s someone you can overcome so easily?
Given his position, how long can you keep him hostage?” Alexander could not help but speak
mockingly.

just bluffing.”
Alexander chuckled and ignored her.
Rhea noticed that and became even more convinced that she was right. “Well, the fact is I have
Cameron. Of course, you could call the police and arrest me, but I’ll kill him first!”
“He’s your uncle, for God’s sake!” Alexander said despite himself.
“So what? We’re not blood-related. Even if he is, I don’t give a sh*t! Look, if he hadn’t asked my
parents to care for Anastasia when she was younger, and if it weren’t for his position, my parents
wouldn’t…”
Rhea caught herself and took a deep breath before changing the subject, “Anyway, I’ll make sure
Cameron dies before I do. Besides, the organization possesses lethal viruses, and so do I!”
She cocked her head and revealed a meaningful smile. “You should already know, shouldn’t you?
Didn’t Mike ask for your help? If he didn’t, then he’s truly an idiot!”
