His Secret Spoiled Wife (Lily and Alexander) novel Chapter 1629

“You have no jurisdiction over it despite being who you are?” Puzzled, Rhea frowned.

Cameron explained, “Even though I hold a high post, I’m in charge of a different department.”

“Tsk.” Rhea was somewhat disdainful. “I thought you have power, but I was wrong.”

Cameron did not retort to Rhea’s mockery but looked ashamed instead. Meanwhile, Fabian and his wife were bewildered as they peered from afar.

“I wonder what Ree has on him. I’ve never seen Ron looking so attentive. He was never like that, even in front of my sister. He’s acting like a…” Fabian paused and hesitated whether to say the word.

On the other hand, Maria was outspoken, so she completed his sentence, “Like a lapdog!”

Fabian was astounded. He shot his wife a look but did not scold her because he thought so too.

“I feel the same way. I asked Ree what the secret is all about just now.”

“What did she say?” Fabian asked eagerly, rather intrigued.

“She said that hearing about it might cost me my life and asked me whether I still wanted to know.” Maria could not help but shudder thinking about Rhea's appearance as she said it.

Fabian was puzzled. “It’s getting harder to know what she’s thinking.” He shook his head and sighed, feeling it was wrong for him to say such a thing.

Then he added, “Well, I’ve never been able to know her well. I didn’t even know she could poison someone being merely a teenager back then.”

Fabian thought it was impossible when he first heard about Anastasia’s poisoning from Cameron. He wondered how it could cause someone to suffer chronic poisoning through inhalation. It was like a plot out of a novel for Fabian.
