Chapter 2001


    Mike was surprised. He furrowed his brows and looked her up and down, seemingly trying to decide


    whether or not to trust her.


    Rhea ced her arm on the car window frame and stared at him with a huge smile as if daring him to


    However, Mike suspected she had an ulterior motive, so he nced at her car, then looked over his


    shoulder at his.


    ‘This ce is remote; few might notice my car if I abandon it here. Rhea calctes almost every step


    she makes. She intentionally led me here and might’ve even expected me to stop her.’


    “Why? Are you afraid?” Rhea tapped her steering wheel and said, “Forget it then! Just remember that


    it’s a one-time offer, got it? Bye!”


    She waved, started her car, and reversed it, seemingly preparing to leave.


    “Wait a minute!” Mike could not bother if it were a trap. After all, he had been stalking her for two days,

    so he could not give up now. He knew it would be harder to find out what she had been doing if he did.


    ‘Rhea knows I’ve been stalking her all along, and I wouldn’t have known this if she hadn’t exposed me


    on purpose just now. Besides, I’m running out of time.’


    After pondering for a moment, he turned, approached Rhea’s car, opened the passenger door, and sat


    beside her despite the smug look in her eyes.


    ‘I have to do this no matter what!’


    Then Rhea drove around his car and headed forward. Mike subconsciously grabbed the handle on the


    side and looked toward her. “Are we going to your parent’s house?”


    Rhea narrowed her eyes and dropped her smile. “Just shut up and sit tight, okay?”


    She floored the gas pedal, and the car elerated. Mike frowned and nced at her again, only to see


    her driving solemnly. He knew it was toote to change his mind, so he decided not to overthink it.


    Rhea drove quickly and soon reached her parent’s house. However, she did not enter through the front


    gate. It was understandable since people could quickly notice her arrival.


    A pond was at the back of the house, so few cars went that way. Rhea drove her car into a garage and


    shut its door, causing it to fall into darkness. Mike exited the car and noticed it was just an ordinary


    garage. “This is where—”


    Before he could finish, a wall inside the garage slowly moved sideways.


    ‘It’s a f*cking door! I can’t believe there’s a secret chamber here.’


    Mike was astonished.


    Although he had seen many secret chambers and passages when visiting vis and castles worldwide,


    he did not expect to see one inside a typical residential house.


    Rhea ignored his response and headed inside, confident Mike would follow suit.
