Chapter 2307
Spoiled by Mr. Russell
âI have no idea,â Alexander said, âThe entire embassy seems off, just like Rhea.â
After some thought, Mike asked hesitantly, âDo you think⦠Fred has started a coup?â
However, it seemed unlikely. Even if that were the case, Mike knew he should still be able to reach Rhea, who was on Fredâs side. At that moment, a voice said, âThatâs impossible.â
They turned and saw Ross slowly walking downstairs. âI donât think thatâs whatâs happening.â
âWhat makes you say that?â Although Mike shared the same thought, he could not help but ask Ross.
âMy men are in the embassy. If there were indeed a coup, they would have told me about it. Anyway, the embassy staff members are still working as usual, but Fred could be doing something in secret,â
Ross said, âThey havenât seen him for two days, although he has been giving out instructions.â
Alexander thoughtfully added, âSo heâs up to something, and he mightâve told Rhea not to contact outsiders. Thatâs interesting because Fred seems to care about the invisibility potion formula. What could have changed his mind?â
âIt can only be the R10 experiment,â Mike said. He looked over his shoulder at Ross. âYour Highness, why didnât you tell us you have your men in the embassy? Canât you tell them to rescue Lily?â
Ross let out a bitter smile. âDo you think I havenât considered that? Fred is highly vigilant, so itâs not easy to plant a mole around him. Besides, my men are low-level workers who have no access to him.
âThey can only snoop around in the office. As for rescuing peopleâ¦â He shook his head. âIf they were so capable, I wouldâve already found out where my mom is.â
Mike nodded in agreement.
âHer Majesty must be in the embassy,â Alexander said, âSince Fred hasnât made any preparations to return to Yudonia, he must want to continue the experiment here. Also, the queen has to be around when he does.â
Ross propped his chin in his hand and sighed. âI think so, but I just canât figure out where Fred would hide her. I searched everywhere in the embassy.â
Alexander and Mike exchanged a look, knowing how helpless Ross must be feeling. After all, they had also found nothing after searching the embassy under the pretext of disinfection.
âWhatever it is, we must find out what theyâre up to now. Do you think the experiment has encountered some kind of issue?â
âI doubt it. I donât think Fred has begun the experiment yet.â Alexander stood up after some pondering.
âThereâs no point taking wild guesses. Iâll get someone to investigate this. Mike, try to call Rhea again.
If she doesnât answer, think of other ways to reach her.
âYour Highnessâ¦â Alexander stopped, thinking it was inappropriate for him to order the prince around.
However, Ross did not mind it, saying, âItâs okay. Just tell me what you need me to do.â
Alexander nodded. âPlease, ask your men to find out whatâs going on.
