His Secret Spoiled Wife (Lily and Alexander) novel Chapter 2238

Mike was calm enough to consider all that and did not blame Alexander and Austin. They were right, after all. However, Mike did not enjoy being suspected and treated as an outsider. Having sensed something was up, he struggled inwardly for a long time before telling them the truth.

“I’m glad you’re not upset.” Alexander nodded. He noticed Mike was no longer the same.

Although Mike was still worried about his son, he did not let his emotions influence his thoughts and judgments.

“You told Rhea what Dr. Blanc said—” Austin felt Mike shouldn’t have done so.

However, Mike interrupted him. “Firstly, didn’t Dr. Blanc claim the invisibility potion was real to test my reaction?”

“Yes,” Austin said as he palmed his cheek.

Although Mike did not mind it, he felt embarrassed admitting this.

“So there’s nothing wrong if I told her about it, right?” Mike shrugged and explained, “Also, I know I shouldn’t mention Dr. Blanc, but I doubt they know who he is or what he does. They would only suspect him to be a doctor or a scientist.

“Besides, there’s a secret department in every country. There’s no guarantee other nations haven’t learned about it already.” Mike sounded reasonable.

Alexander nodded. “Although you didn’t consult us, I think you did the right thing.”

“I purposely told Rhea the news so she would think I was still under her control. Besides confusing her about the invisibility potion, I also wanted to mislead her into thinking no one suspected her claims.”

“Confuse her about the invisibility potion?” Austin shook his head. “It’s too far-fetched. Anyone who has studied medicine wouldn’t believe it.”

“Not necessarily so,” Mike dissented, “Rhea’s not just anyone. She works for the organization.”

Having interacted with people from that organization, Alexander and the other two knew how extreme and twisted its beliefs were. Instead of progress for mankind or redemption, they were after domination and destruction.

If an invisibility potion existed, the organization would feel tempted by it. Therefore, they would try to create it, even though it sounded absurd.

The trio fell silent.

Alexander looked at Mike, feeling pleased and relieved. At least there’s some good news.”

He wondered, ‘It’s fortunate Mike has a special condition, but what if the mind-control drug works and Rhea uses it on others?’
