Chapter 1857


    The man narrowed his eyes. However, Mike threw Lily an astonished look over his shoulder.


    As the organization held his son hostage, he was always submissive whenever he tried to bargain with


    the man. He would also never dare to make such a demand. Even his outburst was limited to yelling.


    He and the man knew well that he dared not do anything beyond that. Still, Lily seemed like she did not


    care and feared nothing even though she was pregnant.


    “Aren’t you afraid that—” After being quiet for a few seconds, the man began to speak, but Lily cut him


    off decisively, “Nope!”


    “I’ll die sooner orter. Indeed, I want to protect my family, friends, husband, and son, but it shouldn’t


    be my responsibility alone. I also believe my husband can do it. Even if he and I failed despite our best


    efforts, I would have no regrets,” Lily said earnestly, “However, why should I believe you’re able to do


    that?”


    With a dismissive sneer, Lily continued mockingly, “If you truly have so much power, you wouldn’t even


    need a woman like me. You would have conquered the world and done what you wanted to long ago


    and not depend on others like now!”


    What she said hit the man where it hurt. After all, he would not be working for others if he were so


    powerful. In other words, he was just someone else’s pawn.


    Taken aback, Mike realized he had not thought about it that way. He always knew the man was working


    for someone. Mike thought the organization wasrge and fearsome because he failed to locate his


    son despite hiswork and resources.


    After hearing Lily’s words, he could not help but agree. Even though the organization wasrge and


    fearsome, he should fear it and not the man before him.


    ‘Even though this guy keeps acting tough, he’s just a clown who works for someone else.’ Thinking so,


    Mike became less afraid of the man, and the hatred in his gaze deepened.


    “You…”

    When Lily exposed the little man, he became so furious that he wanted to stomp his foot.


    “Tell your boss I fear nothing. If they want to talk business, talk to me face-to-face and stop hiding


    behind your back.” Then Lily left the office with the documents.


    Mike peered at the man for a while, then turned to leave, no longer as respectful as before.


    Only the man and Rhea remained in the office while a dead silence ensued. Suddenly, the man


    grabbed the stuff on the desk and flung them to the floor. “What insanity is this?! They have f*cking lost


    their minds!”


    Rhea dodged aside as the things fell all over the ce.


    Seeing her dodging, the man grew angrier and grabbed a book to throw at her, but he hesitated and


    put it down. He red at her with red eyes and asked, “Didn’t you say everyone has a weakness?


    Didn’t you say not everyone is indifferent to everything like you are?”


    Rhea was dumbfounded.
