Spoiled by mr. russell chapter 1928-Just as Lily gulped down half the glass of water, a knock on the
door sounded from outside.
“It’s not locked,” Lily called out, not bothering to get up.
She predicted for a knock to come around this time.
The door opened, and it was Mike outside.
When he entered, he looked back and was about to close the door when Lily said, “Don’t close it.”
“Huhu”
“If there were two pairs of eyes on you and me in the past, now it’ll double.Whether or not you close the
door doesn’t affect anything.It just makes you look more guilty,” Lily explained lazily with an indifferent
expression.
“It’s so messy now; there’s nothing to avoid.”
Thinking about this, Mike quickly reopened the door widely.

Lily seemed a little irritable.
She put a cushion behind her and leaned back lazily with her brows furrowed.
Mike could not tell what she was thinking about.
“The surveillance Rick saw…”
“The wound on your leg…”
The two spoke almost simultaneously, but they both paused.
If there were any doubts, it would be evident after asking.
No one was a fool since they were surviving in this place.
Lily could have thought of how to falsify her evidence the same way he might naturally want others to
suspect his leg injury.
Although he might be injured, if someone discovered his scar was from a bite mark instead of a knife
wound, an observant man like Rick would have suspected something was amiss.
It was just that Mike had injured himself again and dealt a ruthless hand.
“That Rick isn’t a simple man,” Lily said lightly, changing the subject.
“That’s normal,”
Mike sounded quite reflective, “He has been by the boss’s side the longest and is the most mysterious
person I know.To be honest, I’ve only met him a few times, but I know that he’s highly influential.I think
he may be even more powerful than the boss.”
“More powerful than the bess?”
Lily did not expect this and looked at Mike in surprise.
Mike smiled, albeit somewhat bitter.
“We all know the boss is just a clown dancing on stage.Taking him down isn’t too difficult, even if it
weren’t for today’s incident.It’s just that we fear what’s behind him.”
Lily did not interrupt since he was right.

It was not hard to take down the performer on stage.
With his size, strength, and lack of self-defensive skills, it was not challenging to take him down, even
with a few guards around.
No one took action for such a long time because they knew he was not the key to the organization.
Instead, the mysterious and powerful organization behind him was the terrifying force.
“Besides the boss, we have no idea who the higher-ups are, but Rick does,”
Mike paused before continuing, “I’ve considered getting an answer from him, but…”
He sighed faintly and just shook his head.
‘It’s difficult.Way too difficult!’ Rick was as cold as ice and as hard as a rock.He was rarely around as
well.It was too difficult of a task to get in touch with the higher- ups through him.
“He’s a difficult person to deal with.”
Lily rubbed her hands together as she pondered.She lowered her gaze, and after a momentary silence,
