Spoiled by mr. russell chapter 1930-Mike nodded and said nothing more.
However, he stopped again and turned to look at her when he reached the door.
“What?”
He hesitated to speak.
After a while, he finally said, “I know it’s your body, so you should know best, but I’ve experienced this
and know highly risky childbirth is.Nick’s birth almost cost his mother’s life, and because of this, she
spiraled out of control.I couldn’t just disregard her.
“You’re six months pregnant and live in such a tense environment.You shouldn’t be stubborn and try to
do everything yourself.”
Lily did not like the word “stubborn” because it made her sound like she was trying too hard.
However, she knew Mike said these things out of concern.She did not refute and instead nodded.
“I understand.Thank you, Mike.”
She found it tough to thank him.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSince he confessed to his deception, they could no longer return to how they were before.
Although they had joined forces and faced various difficulties and dangers together, they still were not
friends.

Mike’s lips twitched.
Just as he wanted to leave, Lily called him back.
“There must be a way to solve Nicky’s matter.He is a good boy and will come home safely.”
Mike suspected she had said that to comfort him, or she might have believed it.
Still, he was grateful and smiled.
“I think so too.”
Just as he walked to the elevator and was about to press the button, he noticed the elevator was
stopping on the same floor.
Frowning, he stepped back subconsciously and turned his head to glance toward Lily.

The duo’s eyes met as the elevator arrived with a crisp ding.
The elevator door opened slowly, and the person inside raised their head.
When the person saw who stood before them, their face remained calm.
Instead, the person in the elevator just slightly raised their eyebrows.
“What a coincidence, Mr.Corden.”
“Yeah, what a coincidence!”
Mike smiled as usual.
Then he turned and gestured to the room at the end of the corridor.
“Are you coincidentally here to look for Ms.Christian as well?”
Rick stepped out of the elevator.
“Why, is there anyone else living on this floor?”
“Then I won’t bother you two.”

With a little brute force, Rick pulled Mike back.
“Don’t rush to leave.It’s a coincidence we’re all here.”
Mike appeared to be walking with Rick’s arm around his shoulders, but only he knew he could not
struggle to escape.
Rick had his hand around Mike’s shoulders lightly as he strolled casually.
Yet, it felt like Mike was carrying a heavy boulder around his shoulders that he could not get rid of.
No matter how reluctant he was, he could only follow Rick’s steps.
Mike said with a smile, “That’s true.I looked for Ms.Christian to discuss the experiment’s progress.Now
that we’re done, I must return to the lab immediately.We can’t delay any longer!”
Rick gripped his shoulders and had already walked them into Lily’s living room.He said coldly, “No
rush.”
With a slight movement of his foot, the door slammed shut behind then: as a gust of wind blew past
