Spoiled by Mr. Russell novel Chapter 2143

Alexander added, “Rhea’s extremely cunning, and her words are dubious. However, not everything she says is false.”

“Aren’t you stating the obvious?” Mike stopped and gazed after Alexander.

The latter stopped and turned to say, “But I know someone who might be able to tell if she’s speaking the truth.”

Mike was surprised.

…

As efficient as Alexander was, he soon fetched Austin, who had been busy helping Dr. Blanc with his research. Although it had only been a few days, Austin had lost plenty of weight and developed dark circles under his eyes.

Still, he seemed unusually spirited, and an air of confidence surrounded him.

"Did you have lunch yet?" Austin asked before Mike, who was approaching, could even offer to lead him to see Rhea.

Taken aback, Mike said, “N-No, not yet.”

“Then let’s eat. I’m starving!” Austin said as he strode inside the house.

Mike was dumbfounded. He looked at Alexander, but the latter did not object.

Then Mike turned around and chased after Austin, asking, “Aren’t you supposed to see Rhea first to find out if she’s lying about having a virus inside her?”

Austin rechecked his watch and said, “We’ve got time.”

He got up, walked into the living room, and lay on the sofa. “We should take a nap after lunch.”

“Hey, you…” Mike saw Austin closing his eyes and impatiently went over to pull him up. “Alex, look at him! Will he help us or not?! Do you think we’re on vacation?”

He tried pulling Austin up, but the latter seemed to have fallen asleep and was too heavy to lift.

“Alex, come help me!” Mike said, struggling and huffing with frustration.

Alexander walked over and looked on calmly. “Let him rest for a while.”
