His Secret Spoiled Wife (Lily and Alexander) novel Chapter 2044

"Rhea, I can make your life a living hell! I know you faked your death once, but you might not be so lucky this time!"

"Mr. Russell, do you think I'm afraid of death? If I die, I’ll bring many people to the grave. It’ll all be worth it!” Rhea grinned, looking satisfied with herself.

"You—" Alexander was infuriated but could do nothing to her. At this moment, he finally understood what Mike meant when he said this woman was crazy.

‘She’s not just crazy; she’s the epitome of madness! She fears no threat, no torture.’

He realized he could not do anything to her at the moment.

"Why don't you consider cooperating with me? The world is progressing and constantly changing. When did people ever imagine airplanes, cannons, or rockets? Now robots can even replace humans.

“Is anything impossible?" Rhea dismissed his disbelief. "Perhaps you think I'm making baseless claims, but I see further than you do.

“Humans must evolve. It's a battle of strength. I'm helping the world eliminate weaker people. Society has always been about survival of the fittest. By eliminating those who can't adapt, only the best will remain. Isn't that better?"

"Your twisted logic is truly enlightening. It opens my eyes." Alexander sneered, contemplating how to make her tell the truth.

"It's not twisted logic—it's the truth! Most don’t acknowledge the truth until it’s too late. You’ll come to realize that!" Rhea knew she was right. She raised her eyebrows and looked at him.

"So, how about it? You know how powerful I am. If you cooperate with me, all those people, including your son, can be relieved of their pain. Are you willing to let go of saving your son? Wouldn't that make you just like me?"

She trapped Alexander in a dilemma with just a few words. He would appear as heartless as her if he refused to cooperate. However, it was a false proposition that did not fool Alexander. Rejecting her did not mean he was similar to her.

"You're delusional!" He said sternly. "The world will continue to turn even without you!"

"Why don't you try it then? Don't blame me for not warning you. Over time, if your son doesn't die, he might become disabled. Don't underestimate our virus’s aftereffects and influence!" Rhea shook her head as if Alexander was being utterly ignorant.

Alexander narrowed his eyes, and the two of them remained deadlocked. Rhea showed no signs of backing down, confidently looking up at him.

She was gambling, betting Alexander would eventually compromise. After all, he and Lily cared so much about other people's lives, eager to save them. Now, the only hope rested with Rhea.

She was confident no one could solve the virus she had researched and developed.

Suddenly, Alexander's phone rang, vigorously vibrating in his pocket. It only vibrated since he had silenced it. Nonetheless, he looked at Rhea deeply and took out his phone. It was a call from Dominic’s number, so he immediately answered, “Austin?”
