Alexander raised his brow. “Because I am.”
Mike was at a loss for words. He cursed inwardly and moved to the back to get changed.
He wet the towel with water available at the back to wipe his face, neck, and hands clean. Then he put on Alexander’s spare clothes and looked much more refreshed.
Mike sat beside Alexander and looked at him, asking, “Now, can you tell me where we’re going?”
Alexander threw him a casual glance and slowly said, “The embassy.”
“The embassy?” Surprised, Mike widened his eyes. “For what? Is my son there?”
“No, but we can only get your son back by going there.” Alexander tossed him a file.
It contained printouts of emails from Lily’s inbox that Olivia had shared with him. From the sender’s signatures and the content of the messages, one could tell who the person was.
Mike was puzzled but took the file. His frown deepened as he carefully read the emails, and his eyes widened in astonishment. “This is…”
“Invitations the royal family of Yudonia sent. Oh, the latter emails weren’t. They initially requested Lily to create custom-made perfumes for them, but they later invited her to visit the embassy. They also…” Alexander paused and cocked his head, “mentioned the lab.”
‘Why would someone from the royal family of Yudonia know about the lab? Why would they want to invite Lily over?’
