Spoiled by Mr. Russell novel Chapter 1539

Chapter 1539

Alexander was very thoughtful.

However, judging from how Greg acted, Alexander had probably trained him.

The security measures of this place were also very well planned.

"Then..."

After pondering for a moment, Lily asked softly, "Where's Edward?"

Alexander fell silent as soon as he heard that name, and his face turned solemn.

From the looks of it, the situation might be more ominous than Lily had thought.Her mood dropped as well.

On the one hand, she wanted to know the answer, but on the other, she was afraid of what she might hear.

‘If something bad happened, how would Olivia take it?’ "Many died in the factory,"

Alexander began slowly, "Some died from the war, and some from the plague.I knew I couldn't stay any longer and had to return."

After a pause, he continued, "The whole situation was chaotic.Just as we were about to leave, we ran into a bunch of thugs.Edward took a bullet for me..."

"Is he dead?"

Lily suppressed the sadness that startled to bubble in her heart and asked directly.

"Maybe." Alexander sighed.

"He was still alive when I left, but he didn't come with me.He urged me to go and said he would cover for me.Otherwise, I wouldn’t have been able to make it back as smoothly as I did."

Although his explanation was brief and light, Lily could feel how complicated and dangerous it was at that time just by listening to him.

It seemed like he was trying to convince himself that Edward was not dead.

Ultimately, he quietly mumbled, "In short, he’s only dead when I see his body.I won't leave Edward in a foreign land like this."

Lily looked at his heavy eyes and understood his pain.She nodded.

"We'll find him.I believe Edward will be safe and sound."

"Olivia...did you tell her?"

Alexander suddenly asked.Lily shook her head.

"I didn't dare to say anything.She's pregnant.I'm worried she might not be able to take it.Besides, even you said you're unclear about the situation.I don’t know much, so I didn't want to spread nonsense."

"Then don't tell her anything yet.Wait until I hear back from my men," Alexander said firmly with a nod.
