His secret spoiled wife (Lily and Alexander)

Chapter 1791

At eight o'clock in the morning, a black car appeared at the gate of the Russells household. At the stime, Lily's phone rang.

She glanced at the flashing caller ID, lowered her head, and hung up. Then she picked up the things she had packed earlier, drank

the remaining milk in her cup, and said to Alexander, "I'm leaving."

"If you feel like something's wrong, stop doing it and callimmediately." Alexander did not have much to say besides this

reminder.

She nodded and walked toward the door.

"Lily," he called out. Lily stopped, and Alexander quickly pulled her into his embrace. He hugged her quietly without saying a word.

His embrace was warm and comforting. Lily was startled for a moment before quickly returning to her senses. Then she leaned into

his chest and enjoyed the warmth and tranquility of this moment.

They both knew what they were about to face was cruel and dangerous. However, they could not just back down when push came

to shove.

"It's almost time," Lily said softly and patted his shoulder lightly.

Those people were impatient. On top of that, there was no need to delay.

Alexander let her go and dropped his arm to the side before taking her hand instead. "I'll walk you out."

She wanted to tell him it was unnecessary, but after glancing at his face, she swallowed back her words and nodded slightly.

"Okay, let's go!"

Alexander held her hand tightly, and his palm was slightly sweaty. His face was solemn, too. It was rare for him to be this nervous.

Lily turned her head and gently scratched his palm, trying to get him to relax.

However, Alexander did not stop or look at her. Instead, he held her hand a little tighter.

When they arrived at the door, Mike was already waiting by the car. It was not a surprise that the two cout together. Mike

straightened up and quickly walked forward. "I'm sorry, this is not my—"

"It's meaningless to say anything now. Let's go!" Lily interjected.

His apology was meaningless, seeing that this was out of his control.

Mike stayed silent and glanced at Alexander hesitantly. Then he could not help but ask, "Are we still friends?"

Alexander glanced at him with his eyebrows slightly raised but did not answer.

Mike noticed this, smiled sarcastically, and said, "My question was superfluous."

With that, he turned around and opened the back passenger door for Lily to get in. Mike closed the door, and just as he was about

to go around to the driver's seat, Alexander suddenly stopped him. "If my wife can cback safe and sound, | will always be

grateful to you."

Mike raised his head to look at Alexander, stunned as if he was unsure who Alexander was talking to. As soon as Mike returned to

his senses, he knew the true meaning behind Alexander's words. Alexander wanted him to take care of Lily and protect her well.

Mike nodded fiercely and said, "I promise | will do my best to protect her, even if it costsmy life!"

He had done a lot of wrongs for his son’s sake. Every day was torture in the organization. Now, Alexander's request was nothing to

him.

Alexander put his hands in his pockets and nodded slightly in response.

Mike did not overstay his welcand quickly got into the car and drove away.

Watching the car disappear from Alexander's sight, a voice sounded from Alexander's earphones, asking uncertainty, "Mr. Russell,

are you not going to follow them?"

Alexander tilted his head slightly and answered in a flat tone, "There's no reason to."
