His Secret Spoiled Wife (Lily and Alexander) novel Chapter 1758

Alexander’s hand, which was holding onto Lily’s arm, tightened. He did not want Lily to endanger her life. If he could replace Lily and take the risk for her now, he would do it without any hesitation, but it was her the organization needed.

“They’re eager for me to join them because they believe I can blend the medicinal herbs and fragrances perfectly together to achieve what they want. That’s not difficult as I’ve succeeded several times before.

“Also, I know how to protect myself. Since they still need me, they won’t hurt me. You can rest assured I’ll be fine, at least during the period when they need me.” Lily was still trying to convince Alexander.

She could have disregarded his opinions and done whatever she wanted, but she understood where he was coming from. He loved her, so he cared so much about her safety. He was just as worried as she was when his situation was uncertain back in Burnwken.

She was emphatic because she understood his feelings exactly.

“What will happen when you’ve succeeded, and they don’t need you anymore?” Alexander asked in return, anxious as he softly placed his hand on her belly.

“Plus, you’re pregnant now, so it’ll be inconvenient for you to move around much. You must be wary of many more things. How can I let you get involved in something so dangerous?”

“If I had a choice, I wouldn’t do it either,” Lily said bluntly. She was frank about not feeling the need to save the world by herself. She stuck her tongue out and continued, “I don’t have a choice now since I’m already involved in it, and it’s difficult to pull myself out of the situation as well.”

Without giving Alexander a chance to speak, she continued, “I think we shouldn’t be too pessimistic about this. Perhaps they’re not as hideous as we think they are.”

“That’s because you don’t know what they’re capable of!” Mike could not help but interrupt.
