Spoiled by Mr. Russell novel Chapter 1778

Fabian wondered whether or not Cameron was still approachable and whether or not he would still have his back. Fabian was surprised to face such a situation. He slowly lowered his phone-holding hand in response to Anastasia's words and hesitated. “Then…”

“Uncle Fabian, I’ve kept this from everyone because I’m worried. I've got no idea how far along the project is or whether it would be affected now that Rhea has suddenly passed away,” she said, placing her hand on Fabian’s hand. “Still, we’re family, Uncle Fabian. You must help me keep this a secret.”

Her suddenly pressing the back of his hand startled him, and he became flustered.

“Until when? People will find out sooner or later!” He hesitated but seemed open to the idea.

“As long as we can.” Anastasia added, “I’m trying to find a cure for my father. When he wakes up, we’ll have nothing to worry about, and I’ll tell my father you helped us get through this difficult time.”

Hearing this, Fabian was tempted. ‘If I help her and Cameron get through this, they’d owe me big time! He’d have to treat me as his benefactor then, wouldn’t he?’

With Rhea dead, he was unsure whether he could continue to cash in on his relationship with Cameron. He did not even know if Cameron would give him the cold shoulder like he used to.

‘However, if I help them now, Cameron can no longer snub me, can he? Even if he does, I can threaten him with this!’
