Chapter 2002


    Mike naturally caught up. He was curious, eager to know what secrets Rhea still held. Upon entering,


    Mike found himself in a narrow passage that was not particrly long, giving the impression it was not


    part of the initial building.


    The two arrived in a small room after walking to the passage''s end. Although not significant, the ce


    was spacious enough to amodate a few people. Only one person was inside, blindfolded and


    bound.


    Even so, Mike recognized the person at a nce. “He’s…”


    Rhea ced her finger to her lips, gesturing for him to keep quiet.


    Mike was bbergasted and looked at her in astonishment. He wondered how she managed to bring


    the person here and thought she was far too brave for her own good.


    Rhea remained silent, watching the person for a while before turning and walking out. Meanwhile, Mike


    hesitated, nced at the person, and then at Rhea’s retreating figure. After some contemtion, Mike

    decided to chase after her.


    He kept pace with her, and the two returned to the garage. Rhea pressed something, and the wall


    closed again seamlessly and inconspicuously. If Mike had not seen the secret chamber, he would


    never have believed there was one there.


    "Is that Cameron Rollins?!" Mike pointed toward the secret chamber, unable to contain his disbelief.


    Rhea smiled and asked, "Do you know him?"


    "Of course I do!" Mike could not describe his shock.


    ‘Cameron Rollins is a person of status, yet, Rhea dared to kidnap him and hide him in such a ce.


    The most pressing question is how she managed to do it and how is it even possible!’


    At that point, Mike began to wonder how many days it had been since she had done this.


    ‘Is it because she didn’t bring attention to him that no one noticed anything?’


    "Do you think he’s enough to be my bargaining chip?" Rhea smiled, squinting at Mike as if she had


    done something remarkable and was expecting praise.


    "You''re using him as a bargaining chip for an exchange with the organization? Are you out of your


    mind?!" Mike expressed his exasperation, "Don’t you know the authorities in the capital will send troops


    to immediately destroy your house if they find out you’ve kidnapped him?”


    Rhea dismissed it. "I know!"


    "Then why—"


    "So what?" Rhea raised her lips arrogantly, showing a disdainful expression. "Even if they want to


    destroy my house, they must have the opportunity! Perhaps before that happens, we would have


    already taken over the entire capital—no, the entire country!"


    "What are you talking about? Do you even know what you''re saying?" Mike felt like he was staring at a


    madwoman just looking at her. He suspected she had gone insane,pletely and utterly insane.


    "I know what I''m saying. I’ve always been firm in my beliefs. It''s just that the organization doesn''t


    believe in me. But if they see everything I''ve done, they’ll realize I am truly on their side."


    "Well, I''m sorry, but we''re not on the same side!" Mike turned away in disbelief.


    ‘Did this woman even consider the consequences of her actions? Cameron Rollins! How could she


    dare to kidnap him?! What’s her next step after kidnapping him?


    ‘What would the organization want with someone like Secretary Rollins?! Why did she kidnap someone


    on the hierarchy? Forget it! I can’t reason with a madwoman.’
