His Secret Spoiled Wife (Lily and Alexander) novel Chapter 475

From Edward’s solemn expression and hesitation when speaking, Alexander knew something was up. He glanced at Lily and Brandon before getting to his feet and walking further from them to speak with Edward. “What is it?”

Edward whispered some things to Alexander, which changed the latter’s expression as he subconsciously looked in Lily’s direction. Lily’s heart dropped from that one look without him having to say anything.

“I got it.” Alexander nodded and walked back to the dining table while Edward stayed in his spot.

Alexander stood by the table, and Lily looked up at him. On the other hand, the nitwitted Brandon was still chunking down food, not expecting Alexander to be such a good cook that he could compare Alexander’s dishes to a Michelin chef’s. His attention was on the food only, and he could not care less about what the couple was talking about.

Alexander’s gaze landed on Brandon for a moment before he looked at Lily and said solemnly, “A fire happened at Oakville Park a while ago.”

“Okay.” Lily nodded, waiting for him to continue. Before Alexander did, something flashed across her mind. ‘Oakville Park? This place sounds familiar!’

“Isn’t that… where Liv stays now?” Lily remembered the place because she had sent Olivia home twice before. Plus, her place was near their office building.

Alexander nodded, telling her that she was right. Instantly, shock washed over Lily, and she stood up right away. “Then, Liv…”

“The entire building went up in a blaze. Most of the residents got sent to the hospital. We’re still trying to get the details.”

Edward got the news earlier and immediately reported it to me.

“I need to go and take a look!” Lily panted anxiously, wanting to rush out the door, but Alexander stopped her.

“The firemen, police officers, and ambulances are there now. They’re professionals. You can’t do anything there other than be worried, and you might even disrupt their work. Stay calm. I’ve asked Edward to find out more about the situation. We’ll know right away once they find Olivia.”
