His secret spoiled wife (Lily and Alexander) novel Chapter 2239

Austin was the first to break the silence. He cleared his throat and looked at Alexander askingly. “So, what should we do next? Pretend we don’t know anything or act like we’re assuming Mike’s under Rhea’s control?”

Pointing at Mike, Austin pondered this but did not know what to do. The situation was too complicated for him to handle. He had a way with medical problems, but their scenario was complicated.

‘How do we solve it without incurring complications?’

Unable to figure it out, Auston consulted Alexander.

After some thought, Alexander said, “Let’s pretend you didn’t confess to us and that we’re still suspecting you. Let Rhea keep thinking you’re under her control.”

Mike nodded in agreement. He would not have told the other two about his plan if he was not concerned about them jeopardizing it. He only told Austin and Alexander to make them realize the situation was not as bad as they had imagined.

Mike also did not want them to think he was incompetent. In other words, he had no wish to change his original plan.
