His Secret Spoiled Wife (Lily and Alexander) novel Chapter 2236

Alexander and Austin could not understand why Mike admitted it.

‘Isn’t he under the drug’s control? If not, why would he obey Rhea’s commands? Did we guess wrongly, and Mike’s willingly working with Rhea? Is he confronting us to show off what he did?’

Not keeping them in suspense, Mike continued, “Yes, I was the one who freed Rhea, and I did it on purpose.”

“She hypnotized me,” Mike added.

“Hypnotized?” The other two did not consider that.

However, hearing the term, Austin felt it made more sense now.

“Hypnosis,” Mike nodded and continued, “Of course, she might have used some drug, but I wasn't sure how it worked. What I do know is that she performed hypnosis on me. She wanted to control me so that I would let her go. So, I did.”

Austin blinked in confusion. He held up a hand and said, “Hang on. What did you just say? You knew she wanted you to free her, and you just did it?”

When Mike nodded, Austin could not help but say, “Do you know what you’re talking about? Are you under her control or not? You aren't still in a hypnotized state, are you?”

He curiously snapped his fingers in Mike's face. Austin saw that was how one could break a hypnotic trance in the movies and wondered if it would work.

Alexander held Austin's hand down and looked at Mike. “She didn’t hypnotize you, did she?”

Alexander was initially confused, but seeing Mike’s mindset, he roughly understood what had happened.

Mike nodded gently. “I wasn’t.”
