His Secret Spoiled Wife (Lily and Alexander) novel Chapter 1713

The caller did not speak when the call connected. Lily said hello but did not get a response. She thought there was a problem with her phone and was about to hang up when she vaguely heard something.

It was not a voice but a messy background noise—wind blowing and faint honks.

Puzzled, Lily looked at the phone screen and confirmed it was an unknown number. It was a local one. However, when she put the phone to her ear again, she heard nothing. “Hello? Please say something.”

Still, there was no answer.

Alexander noticed something was off and looked at Lily. “What’s wrong?”

Lily shook her head. She planned to wait another 30 seconds before regarding it as a prank call and hanging up if she received no replies. As she lost her patience, a slightly urgent female voice echoed, “Lily!”

“Tasia?” Lily was surprised to hear her voice and wondered if it was inconvenient for her to talk. “Are you all right? Where are you? Is it inconvenient to talk? Is this your number? How about I call you later?”

“No, no…” Anastasia interrupted her in a hushed tone. “Lily, I’m at home secretly using my servant’s phone. There’s indeed something wrong with my father. I think he’s under my cousin’s control.”

“Rhea?” Lily asked subconsciously, then remembered that the woman had died. She frowned. “Don’t panic and tell me slowly. Are you in danger? Has your father done anything to you? If you—”

“I’ve been okay recently. My father hasn’t paid much attention to me but has been anxious. I suspect it’s because Rhea hadn’t come and given him the drug… Lily, are you free to come to my house and take a look at my father?”

She spoke quickly and urgently, but each sentence carried vital information.
