His Secret Spoiled Wife (Lily and Alexander) novel Chapter 2203

Austin and Alexander fell silent before the latter asked, “Who was the first to realize Rhea went missing?”

“I was,” Austin pointed to himself, adding, “But I only peeked through the window. I didn’t have the key. Who else could open the door besides you?”

Alexander did not answer, but they exchanged a knowing look.

“It can’t be him!” Austin shook his head after some thought. “He hates Rhea as much as me. I don’t believe he opened the door for her, let alone free her.”

Alexander said, “I agree, but we must think logically. As you said, she couldn’t have vanished. Even if she could become invisible, she’d need to open the door. That means there’s only one possibility. Perhaps it wasn’t Mike, but someone must’ve opened the door for her.”

After pondering for a while, Austin said, “Did she only run away when we opened the door?”

He shivered, thinking, ‘Did Rhea become invisible and escape when we inspected the seemingly empty house? She could have murdered us!’

“That’s unlikely,” Alexander said readily, “Even if we couldn’t see her, we could sense her presence. I was the one who opened the door. I felt nothing when I entered, not even the slightest warmth. I’m sure she wasn’t in the house then.”

As someone trained in combat, he could somehow sense people’s presence. Even if he could not see a person, he could sense their heartbeat and breathing as long as they were alive. However, there was none that day.

In other words, Rhea had already left the place before he opened the door. As for whether she became invisible, he could not be sure for now.

“That means someone helped her,” Austin clicked his tongue, “To think Rhea could gain a helper while locked up here! I wonder how on earth she managed to do that.”

“Me too,” Alexander said, “Still, her escape isn’t a good thing.”

Austin was not as worried. “Hasn’t Secretary Rollins stepped up the surveillance across the city? I’m sure she can’t avoid us forever.”

He thought everyone needed interaction. If Rhea needed food and accommodation, they would find her. Finding her with surveillance cameras in every street and alley should be more accessible.

“What if she went to the embassy?” Alexander said. He had thought about the possibility before but refrained from saying it out loud.

Since he and the others had a conflict there last time, it was difficult for them to reaccess the embassy. After all, Fred knew what they wanted, and they knew he was the bad guy. However, they could not do anything due to Fred’s status.

“If she has, things will be tricky,” Austin added.

They already had difficulty rescuing Lily, and Rhea at the embassy would only worsen things.

“Shit, if that’s the case, would Rhea try to harm Lily?” Austin anxiously asked when he realized what Reah might do.
