Spoiled by Mr. Russell novel Chapter 1920

After getting an earful, the grunt no longer dared to utter another word. Still, he did not leave.

“What the f*ck are you waiting for?”

“Y-You’re injured. Would you like me to send you to the hospital?” The grunt asked tentatively, probably trying to please Mike.

“Thanks, but no thanks! If we can’t get our boss back, we’ll all die. You might as well send me to the morgue!” Mike sneered. “Oh, by then, you’ll also get sent there with me, won’t you?”

The grunt was terrified by what he had heard and hastily said, “I’ll go right away!”

Then he ran off. This time, there were no more noises. However, Mike did not return to the secret room, probably for safety’s sake. Lily also remained inside, seemingly thinking about something.

After five minutes, the bookcase door made a sound and slowly opened. Mike appeared at the doorway and said solemnly, “You can’t hide here for long.”

Lily nodded, wanting to leave as well.

“What about him?” Mike pointed his chin to the man on the floor.

Lily glanced over at the man and then looked at Edward. “Does anyone else know about this place?”

Edward shook his head. “I doubt it. I only found out about this place by chance.”

The boss did not expect him to find the secret room and left it unguarded when Edward caught him.

“I doubt they will. They’ve already searched the office. The most dangerous place is usually the safest. Besides, there are no better places to hide him, and we can’t just run off with him.”

Edward thought she had a point and nodded.

“Then we’ll interrogate him tonight?” Mike suggested eagerly. He wanted to interrogate the man immediately and force him to free Nick. However, he knew the man would not yield. Mike could only be patient for his son to return safely.

“We’ll decide later,” Lily answered.

She got up to leave, but Mike stopped her. “Wait, let me see if the coast is clear.”

Lily stopped and waited as Mike limped toward the door. He looked outside, kicked the bodyguards lying on the floor to ensure they were still unconscious, and turned before beckoning Lily.
