His secret spoiled wife (Lily and Alexander)

Chapter 2251

Fred was in disbelief as he stared wide-eyed at Ross. The former thought he was hallucinating. He had

planned to get Ross to leave the embassy. Even if nothing happened to the prince, it would buy Fred Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

time to do what he needed.

Still, Ross wanted Fred to leave instead. For a moment, Fred even thought he had a point.

‘This is not happening!’

Thinking so, he quickly explained, “Your Highness, it’s not that I don’t wish to go, but—”

“So you’re willing to go, huh?” The prince interrupted, “I knew you’re most loyal to my mom despite the

rumors. Anyway, this is the best opportunity for you to prove yourself. Just go, Fred. I’ll take care of

everything here.

“I’ll get two of my best bodyguards to protect you along the journey,” he said, “I thank you on behalf of

my mom and the people of Yudonia!”

As he spoke, he rested his palm on Fred’s shoulder. The latter was at a loss for words.

He didn’t even know how he left the prince’s room. He could only remember Ross saying, “You better

depart as soon as possible to ensure nothing bad happens. I’ll have a plane ticket and travel route

ready for you.

“Don’t worry. I’ve traveled around Hyderland several times and understand it well. As for any foreign

affairs or reception, I’ll handle them for you. I’ll tell others you’re going on an official trip.”

As these words rang in Fred’s ear, he wondered how things had ended up like this.

‘Didn’t I try to get rid of Ross? Why am I the one leaving instead?’

Fred was still dumbfounded as he stood in the elevator.

‘Ross is more difficult to deal with than I imagined. I can’t allow this to happen! How can I leave here? If

I do, he might discover my secrets.’

While deep in thought, he reached his office floor. However, he did not exit the elevator and pressed

the floor button again. He took a winding path and arrived at the secret underground laboratory.

After passing the security checks, he saw the employees working as usual and felt slightly relieved. He

proceeded to the innermost part of the laboratory and saw Rhea working diligently.

Rhea did not realize he had arrived because she was preoccupied with her experiment. She was

focused and serious as she extracted juice from a plant.

Seeing her so, Fred did not disturb her. Instead, he waited until she injected the juice into a tube, mixed

it with a few drops of other liquids, and then began observing the data. Rhea caught herself and

glanced to the side. She hurried over, saying, “Your Grace!”

Fred grunted but looked pleased. “How’s the progress?”

“I’m still working on it. I’ll try to make it work as soon as possible,” Rhea said, then added, afraid he

would get upset, “Since we don’t have any relevant data to refer to, everything is still in the

experimental stage.

“I’ll hurry, but I can’t guarantee I can get it to work in just a few days.”
