Spoiled by mr. russell chapter 2022-âHmmâ¦â Anastasia was getting more confused as she listened.
âSomething seems off. Carriers donât get infected?â
âI canât explain it clearly to you now, and honestly, I havenât figured it out myself.â Alexander shook his head apologetically. âBut I want to tell you Iâm not just trying to comfort you. You wonât die. You need to rest and care for yourself for these next two days andâ¦â
He looked around and continued, âYou canât wander. You must stay here, understand?â
Anastasia nodded obediently and understood the reason behind his words. âI understand. I wonât go anywhere since transmitting the virus is possible.â
Immediately after saying that, she realized something and added, âBut Iâve come in contact with a few people in the past two days. Will that be a problem?â
Alexander had already considered that possibility and pondered over it. However, no one could be that confident.
âFor that, weâll have to see how things develop. Nobody can say for certain. I just hope it wonât be highly contagious.â He had done everything he could think of and whatever was within his control.
Anything beyond that was out of his hands.
âBy the way, you donât have to worry about your father. I found him,â he decided to tell Anastasia about this matter to put her at ease. However, he could not disclose too many details.
âHeâs safe for now but canât come back yet.â
Anastasia did not even have a chance to feel relieved and became puzzled. âReally? Whereâs my father now? Why canât he come back? What is he doing?â
Facing her questioning, Alexander had already prepared his answer. âTasia, youâre not a child anymore, and you know the nature of your fatherâs work. There are things he does that we canât disclose. You should be aware of that.
âAs for where he is, heâs still in Kingsland. Rest assured, heâs safe. His not coming back is his decision.
He has his arrangements, and you should trust him, right?â
His words had the power to soothe her, coupled with Anastasiaâs trust in him. Alexander reminded her of her father, who would often be gone for many days without revealing his whereabouts or what he was doing.
Sometimes, Cameron would return with a few injuries, only saying he had work and missions. Initially, Anastasi did not understand it and would ask questions, but she got used to it over time and stopped asking. Instead, she silently worried about him.
This time, perhaps due to the many events happening and the strange occurrences, she could not help but become even more concerned.
âI trust you,â Anastasia said.,âI wonât ask as long as my father is safe. Oh, what about the police?â
âIâll inform them. You donât need to worry.â
Alexander had already dealt with the police and discovered that Cameron had made arrangements with them long ago.
It was easy to imagine that if someone of Cameronâs status suddenly disappeared, it would raise suspicions, and they had to wait until Anastasia reported it to the police.
The reason for not revealing it to the police and continually assisting in the search was merely a diversion, a way to enhance credibility and make Rhea believe she was in control of everything.
Cameronâs significant sacrifice and grand scheme depended on whether that cunning and mysterious organization would take the bait.
