His Secret Spoiled Wife (Lily and Alexander) novel Chapter 2042

“You’ll find out when you cooperate with me. After all, Cameron is the best bargaining chip for our contact with the organization,” Rhea replied mysteriously, with a sly smile.

"Why would Cameron be the best bargaining chip for your negotiation with the organization?" Alexander quickly caught on to her words and pressed further. "What do you want to use him for, or does the organization need him for something?"

"You don't need to pry regarding that," Rhea swiftly changed the topic, "You'll find out soon enough. I need some leverage, too, don't you think?"

Alexander took a step closer. He looked down at her and questioned again, "Are you refusing to tell me where Cameron is?"

Rhea grew impatient with his constant questioning and said, “I already told you. You’ll find out when the time—”

Alexander grabbed her by the throat before she could finish. His movements were swift, and she could not react in time. Alexander lifted her by her neck in the next second, and she struggled to breathe.

“Do you still refuse to tell me?!”

Rhea initially panicked but calmed down a few seconds later and stopped struggling. She said smilingly, “Otherwise, y-you can choke m-me to death, r-right?”

Her smile carried an indifferent provocation. She refused to give in, even though her face turned blue from lack of oxygen. “If I die, C-Cameron’s whereabouts will d-die with me, and Lily will soon b-become a sacrifice for R10. Hehe…”

Edward, standing on the sidelines, was speechless.

‘This woman is insane! Shouldn’t she be begging for mercy in this situation? Yet, she repeatedly provokes Alex as if she’s unafraid of him strangling her to death.’
