His secret spoiled wife (Lily and Alexander)
Chapter 2207

Rhea finally felt relieved after settling down at the embassy. In reality, she was not as confident as she appeared before Fred. Although R20 and mind control were real, she did not obtain a 100% success rate. She was not entirely sure if R20 would work. Even though it worked this time, she could not guarantee it would not fail the next time. Since she was preoccupied with her tasks, she had limited time to do research.

With no help, she could only rely on her exploration and repeated experiments. It was the experiment involving Cameron that had inspired her. The drug was an upgrade based on it. Although the human brain and mind were incredibly complex, Rhea believed she could control people through drugs.

Since drugs could briefly anesthetize a person, and hypnosis could make them fall asleep or remember the past, she thought there could be something that put them under control. Combining hypnosis and drugs was R20's ultimate secret.

Of course, Rhea did not tell Fred about it. After all, it was advantageous not to reveal everything to him.

Now that she had settled in the embassy, she no longer had to worry about Alexander and Cameron's men hunting her down. She glanced at her surroundings and was pleased she had tricked Mike into telling her the royal family of Yudonia backed the organization.

Rhea finally realized why the organization wielded such a significant influence and was so secretive that she could never replace out who they were.

As for the identifier, she had taken it from the "boss." However, she did not know what the pattern represented and had only made things up to impress Fred.

Whatever it was, Rhea had made progress. Next, she wanted to replace Lily and replace a way to convince Fred to eliminate her. That way, the organization would have to rely on Rhea solely.

However, she saw someone guarding the door when she tried to walk out. Before she could step outside, the man stopped her. He did not speak nor look at her, but it was evident he would not let her out. "I... just want to walk around here," Rhea said tentatively, "I'm Duke Frederick's friend, not a prisoner."

Still, the man followed his orders and ignored her.

Rhea could only return to her bedroom. This time, she was furious, no longer as excited as before. She would be no different than Lily if she had to stay in one room. It was as if Rhea was being held captive again.

'I must gain Fred's trust as soon as possible. Otherwise, I'll never get what I want.'

Meanwhile, Lily sat on the attic floor beside the only window. She drew her legs to her chest as she gazed outside. She could only see sunlight and the occasional dark clouds.

It was cloudy and gloomy that day. Even so, she felt better being able to see the outside world. She wondered if the babies were okay after returning home.
