His Secret Spoiled Wife (Lily and Alexander) novel Chapter 2158

“However, there were still minor disturbances,” Austin said with a grin, gesturing with his fingers.

Curious, Alexander raised his brow.

“The person responsible for the center caused quite a ruckus and should’ve been detained by now.” Austin scratched his head. After all, he was part of the technical team and would not deal with such a matter.

“The person responsible…” Alexander seemed to realize who he was talking about.

...

It was quiet in the holding cell, and the atmosphere was tense. Fabian sat on the stiff bed with both knees close to his chest. He still could not understand how he ended up like this.

‘What did I do wrong? How come I ended up here before I could even make a killing from the vaccine development center?’

Initially, he tried to kick up a fuss. However, he quieted down when he realized they might detain him and were even harsh toward him. The place was too cold and horrible for him. He had never suffered like this in his entire life.

He then heard voices outside and wondered if he was hallucinating.

Since getting locked up here, he kept hearing people talking and crashing against the walls. He thought he would go crazy if he continued to stay there. However, the door soon opened, and he heard footsteps approaching.

Fabian heard them stopping nearby and hesitated before looking up. His eyes lit up when he saw the visitor. He rubbed his eyes to ensure he was not hallucinating.

Immediately after, Fabian leaped off the bed and threw himself into the steel bars, shouting, “Ron! Y-You have to help me!”

He tried to grab Cameron’s clothes through the bars but could not reach him.

“Ron, they arrested me for no reason. I’m cold and scared shitless. You have to get me out of here as soon as possible! What the hell is going on? Why are they saying the vaccine development center is dishonest?

“Didn’t we follow the rules and regulations? They must’ve made a mistake,” Fabian spoke desperately, “Do they know who I am to you?! How dare they arrest me? They’ve shown you no respect, Ron! Ron, say something!”

When Fabian saw Cameron silently gazing at him, he realized something was wrong. The former looked at Cameron in disbelief, asking, “Are you behind all this? You’re not here to save me, are you?”

His voice grew fainter as the glow in his eyes dimmed. He did not want to believe it but knew Cameron was not there to help him.

“You’re right. I’m not,” Cameron said indifferently.

Fabian was utterly disappointed.
