His Secret Spoiled Wife (Lily and Alexander) novel Chapter 339

“Do you have the right to ask questions now?” Lily sneered while Jo felt the knife's tip pushing deeper into his flesh.

The pain of the blade penetrating through his skin and the fear that he might be dead the next minute made his attitude soften. “D-Don’t do this! L-Let’s talk it out!”

“Sure. Let’s talk then. Who ordered you to do this?” Lily, with her head, tilted to one side, asked.

When they were in the car earlier, Lily sensed something was off. Lisa would have called Lily beforehand if she genuinely had problems or difficulties on her end. However, Lily could not get through to Lisa’s phone number, and ultimately, Lisa’s phone got turned off. It meant that Lisa faced a severe problem, and she should have sought help from her father. It did not make sense that she looked for Lily.

Hence, Lily felt they were here for her, not because Lisa sent them here because she was in trouble. In that case, Lily played along, wanting to find out what they were up to while she searched for the mastermind behind this plan.

“We can’t reveal our boss’ identity,” Jo thought briefly before saying coldly.

“Wow, you sure have your professional ethics in check,” Lily mocked, using the knife to tap his cheek. “It seems you don’t care about your own life, do you?”

Jo just pursed his lips and said nothing.

Lily could tell that he cared about his life from his tensed jaw and the popping veins on his forehead. However, he could not continue working in this field if word of his revealing his employer got out. That was equivalent to ruining his career.

They understood the industry's rules clearly, so the essential thing they needed to do was keep their employer’s identity confidential.

“You’re not afraid of dying?” The knife sliced through his neck, creating a tiny cut slowly. Lily controlled her strength well, so the dagger had only cut the surface, not the flesh within. That hurt the most, however.
