Alexander laughed and refilled Dominic’s glass, asking, “Didn’t you say she couldn’t have become invisible?”“I want to see how she makes a fool of herself, okay?” Dominic spoke bluntly with widened eyes.Alexander laughed. “Well, I’ll let you know when we catch her.”After dining and chitchatting, they heard a flurry of footsteps approaching. Galen excitedly hurried over and asked, “Daddy, is that you?!”A maid was close behind, trying to catch up.“Daddy!” The boy threw his arms onto Alexander. “It’s really you, Daddy!”“Yes, it’s me!” Alexander grew emotional as he held his son and inhaled his scent. He missed Galen so much that he did not want to let go.“You little rascal!” Dominic said in a stern voice but did not drop his smile. “What about my hug?”Galen turned to look at him and pouted. “You’re drinking again!”“What do you care?” Dominic put down his glass. “Your dad came to pick you up. Can’t I celebrate a little?”Elated, Galen turned to his father. “Daddy, is tha
Rhea finally felt relieved after settling down at the embassy. In reality, she was not as confident as she appeared before Fred. Although R20 and mind control were real, she did not obtain a 100% success rate.She was not entirely sure if R20 would work. Even though it worked this time, she could not guarantee it would not fail the next time. Since she was preoccupied with her tasks, she had limited time to do research.With no help, she could only rely on her exploration and repeated experiments. It was the experiment involving Cameron that had inspired her. The drug was an upgrade based on it.Although the human brain and mind were incredibly complex, Rhea believed she could control people through drugs.Since drugs could briefly anesthetize a person, and hypnosis could make them fall asleep or remember the past, she thought there could be something that put them under control. Combining hypnosis and drugs was R20’s ultimate secret. Of course, Rhea did not tell Fred about it. A
‘I’m sure they’ll be fine. Alex is very attentive to children. Galen had a small patch of eczema when he was a baby. I didn't even notice it myself, but Alex did. He even quickly found a way to treat it.‘Although he looks like someone who only cares about business, he’s observant of many small things and does them better than me. Sometimes, he would cook for us when the servants were on leave.‘I’m so lucky to have married someone like him.’ Lily could not help but smile when she thought about her husband and children.Suddenly, Lily realized she thought about her past because she was nearing the end of her life. Lily shook her head vigorously and thought, ‘No, no, no! Snap out of it, Lily!’People were often not brought down by their enemies but by their own beliefs. Once a person’s beliefs crumbled, they would despair easily.As Lily was lost in thought, Fred entered with two guards. He smirked, “Lily, you know what time it is, right?”“Is it time to kick your ass?” Lily said
Lily pretended to be calm, but her heart was pounding. After all, she didn’t know why Fred let her out. She wondered if the time had come to transfer the queen’s consciousness to her.‘Am I about to die? Is there no hope at all?’Lilt did not want to die but could not escape since surveillance cameras and heavily armed guards were everywhere. Her chances of running were slim to none.However, she was surprised when the men brought her to an infirmary. After a thorough body checkup, the nurses left her in the room and locked it.Lily was puzzled, not knowing what they were up to.Suddenly, the door opened, and she was surprised to see the visitor.…Fabian looked quite different when Cameron saw him again. The former had lost a lot of weight and had bruises on him. Cameron heard he had fought with the people inside. The unshaven Fabian even looked dull.When Cameron called him, he blinked and took a while before returning to his senses.“Fabian,” Cameron called, feeling conflic
As Fabian’s sister was gentle and virtuous, Cameron wondered how Fabian turned out this way.Cameron sighed and said, “I know you’re having a hard time here, but you wouldn’t have ended up like this if you hadn’t been so greedy and tried to steal the project.”“I got it through legal means!” Fabian shouted, “You fucking gave it to me, remember? I thought you were trying to help me, but you ting me up instead! You fucking asshole!”He tried to choke Cameron but couldn’t reach him through the bars. Even so, Fabian tried. It showed how much he hated Cameron.“I didn’t set you up. Let me repeat it. It’s Rhea who did this to you,” Cameron said emphatically, “She used her drug to influence me so that I would give you the project. Why else would you have gotten it?“You claim you got the contract legally, but La Beauté Group had already won the bid. The company is a much better candidate regarding cash flow and qualification. Why would I redo the bidding and give you the project?“Did y
Fabian blinked, seemingly puzzled by Cameron’s question.Cameron asked again, “If Rhea wishes to hide somewhere, where will it be?”‘If I want to know where Rhea’s hiding, I should ask her parents.’Cameron’s men had searched through surveillance footage all over the city but failed to locate her. Since she was unlikely to flee the city, she must be hiding somewhere.With that thought in mind, he asked his men to stake out Fabian’s house. Still, they discovered nothing after two days. Cameron then decided to see if he could get any helpful information from Fabian.“Why would Rhea want to hide?” Fabian blinked again, then thought of something. “You’re trying to catch her?”“Yes. Rhea broke the law, after all. If we can arrest her and determine she was behind all this, you can leave the place soon,” Cameron said seriously. He exaggerated slightly, but it was indeed so.If Fabian weren’t the mastermind, he would receive a reduced sentence.“You’re asking me to betray my daughter?”
Cameron realized he could not gain any helpful information from Fabian and turned to leave.Fabian called his name indifferently, “Ron.”Cameron stopped and turned to see his brother-in-law in the same position. Fabian said, “You have a daughter too. What would you do if she committed a crime? Would you report her to the police? Besides, aren’t you responsible for what’s happening to my family?”Fabian slowly turned to look at Cameron. “You were obsessed with building your career, so my sister had to care for the family alone. She almost fell into depression. After she died, we helped you care for Tasia.“Rhea has only got astray because we neglected her. What about you? You got what you wanted yet refused to help me despite what I had done for many years. Ron, You’re more heartless than Rhea.”Cameron was speechless.Fred said emphatically, “I don’t care how many people Rhea harmed. She has never hurt me or her mother. She’s my daughter, so I won’t tell you anything. Just get th
If Fabian refused to help him, Cameron doubted Maria would. Since Rhea returned after her staged death, Maria would do anything for her, even breaking the law. Therefore, there was no point in asking Maria for help. Furthermore, she was still furious with Cameron. “Dad, if you don’t wish to see her, I can ask her. I don’t mind if she tells me off.” Anastasia thought her father was concerned about this. “No, we shouldn’t waste time on her.” He smiled. “Anyway, thank you for being such a great help lately.”“Well, all I did was pass on messages. I didn’t do much.” Anastasia had been doing her best to help Cameron. She was happy even acting as a messenger. Now, the father and daughter could spend much more time together, and they cherished these moments more than ever. “Dad, do you think Rhea might have gone to look for the person responsible for the research?” Anastasia thought momentarily and said, “After all, she has always wanted to rejoin the organization.” “No.” Cameron
