Spoiled by mr. russell chapter 1919-The small room suddenly became stuffy after the bookcase door
closed.It was hard to breathe without a single window.However, it was a perfect hiding place for Lily
and Edward.
The two looked at each other without a word, then heard footsteps and someone talking outside.
Someone seemed to have discovered the bodyguards lying at the doorway and rushed into the office,
yelling, “Sir?! Sir!”
Lily tensed up and gripped the desk corner beside her as she listened intently.
“What took you guys so long?” Mike’s voice was tinged with anger and sounded authoritative.
“Mr.Corden?”
Those grunts knew him and were shocked when they saw him.Mike said, “You imbeciles! Where were
you?!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Mr.Corden, what the hell happened?” Mike said solemnly, “Someone barged in and kidnapped the
boss, but I got wounded and couldn’t stop them.
They’re a bunch of losers!”
Although Lily was not outside and could not see him, she knew he referred to the bodyguards lying
outside in the last sentence.
“Who were they? How did they enter the office? They need the passcode to get in here!”
The grunts were puzzled.
Judging from the question, Lily knew Mike’s words did not entirely convince them.
Then she heard Mike raise his voice, “How the f*ck would I know?! Why do you ask me? They nearly
stabbed me to death, you know? Stop wasting time and f*cking chase after them!”
“uh…”
After being scolded, the grunts were probably confused and did not suspect anything, significantly
since Mike was indeed injured.
“Mr.Corden, how many were there? Where did they take the boss? How long has it been since they
left?”
“Quite a while ago.Just hurry! They dressed up like our workers…Yes, just like you guys! They could be
spies working among us.Are you sure there are none among you?”
Mike started accusing them by mixing truths and lies.
It was a perfect diversion that could create rifts within the organization.
“Mr.Corden, we would never betray the organization!”
“How would I know if there’s a spy among you guys? If there isn’t, don’t waste time and chase after
then!”
The grunts seemed to realize something, and a flurry of their chaotic footsteps soon followed.However,
their footsteps gradually became distant this time, indicating they had all left.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLily sighed in relief and thought, ‘It seems Mike is quick-witted.I didn’t know how to handle the situation,
but he handled it well.His wound also helped.
They got fooled, and it’s a state of emergency to them now.
‘Still, if someone discovers that Mike’s wound isn’t knife-inflicted when they return, it’ll expose his lies”
Lily was about to leave the secret room and tell Mile to settle the matter and leave when she heard
something and stopped.
As she expected, one of the grunts had already returned in less than two minutes.
“Mr.Corden, in which direction did those men run off?”
After a pause, Mike shouted, “How the f*ck would I know?! Would they send me their f*cking location
after going downstairs? If I weren’t f*cking wounded, I would’ve given chase and not asked imbeciles
like you for help!”
