His secret spoiled wife (Lily and Alexander) -
Chapter 2087
Spoiled by mr. russell chapter 2087-Edward leaned against the wall outside and lit a cigarette. Just as he exhaled a puff of smoke, he heard movement from the house and saw the doctor walking out. Edward gestured with his chin toward the house. "Why not spend more time with them?"
Without answering, the doctor looked at him and asked, "What do you want from us?"
"Huh?" Edward seemed somewhat puzzled.
"You saved my wife and children and then released them. There must be a condition. What do you want me to do?" The doctor had already thought it through inside the house. He knew they would not release his family without expecting something in return.
He was willing to do whatever it took as long as his family was safe. Nothing else mattered more.
"There's no demand." Edward waved. "None."
The doctor was shocked.
'How can that be? He did a great favor for me. Surely they'll have a demand.'
Edward noticed his disbelief and straightened up, saying solemnly, "We wouldn't have released your family if we wanted something from you. Holding them hostage would be more reliable than letting them go. "Mr. Russell ordered us to release them, and he has already arranged for you and your family to go somewhere safe. He has no demands, either."
The doctor felt overwhelmed by this confirmation. His voice trembled as he asked, "W-Why?"
"Because..." Edward paused, flicked the cigarette ash, and looked at him. "We all have wives and children."
The doctor could not believe it. He knew those were Alexander's words.
'Everyone has loved ones and understands the pain of losing them. How can they bear to let others go through that suffering?'
Moreover, the doctor was an innocent victim dragged into a terrible situation. Everyone involved faced similar things, and there was not much the doctor could do. He did not want to make things difficult for Alexander.
Those were just words for Alexander. Meanwhile, it was a profound shock for the doctor. The latter had grown numb to threats and blackmails since his wife and children got taken. He did not have much hope even when Edward told him they would rescue his family.
The doctor thought his family would only move from one dangerous situation to another. However, he never expected Edward to release his family without demands or threats, allowing them to reunite. "Aren't you afraid I'll run away with my family?" the doctor asked in confusion. He trembled as he tried recollecting himself.
Edward chuckled. "Why would we? Do you think you're indispensable to us?"
The doctor was puzzled.
'I thought I was. Otherwise, why would they go to such lengths to help me rescue my family? They even made arrangements to prevent the organization from finding us.'
Edward puffed his cigarette again and said, "You're right. Initially, we needed you to pass some messages and give us information on the other side. But now, we probably won't need that anymore."
