Before this, the organization had urged Lily to speed up the experiment’s progress, emphasizing time was running out. Now, they seemed less urgent. Still, she did not know the situation on Alexander’s side or what had happened at the research base.
‘What will Mike and Rhea do now that the organization has taken me away? Has Edward already left?’
…
Mike immediately returned to the research base after hearing about Alexander’s situation. Rick, who had taken Lily away, had caught Mike off-guard, quickly sending Mike into a spiral.
Mike only remembered the “boss” was still locked inside the secret room while returning to the research base. Mike had planned to find an opportunity to move the boss out, but now it seemed no one cared about the boss.
However, it was a good chance for Mike to gamble. He wanted to see if this vicious man, who the organization had already discarded, would still be as arrogant, fearful, or angry. Mike also wanted to see if there was a chance he could discover Nick's whereabouts.
When Mike arrived, he saw that the secret room door was already open. Someone had brought the “boss” out of the room and placed him on the chair with his head tilted to one side, looking unconscious.
Meanwhile, Rhea was sitting on the other side. She looked at ease with her legs crossed and smiled as she looked at Mike meaningfully, who had just rushed in. “You still said it wasn’t you.”
"Rhea?!" Mike was stunned. At this point, he no longer needed to deny it. He sneered and said, "What's the matter? Are you going to save him?"
