His secret spoiled wife (Lily and Alexander)

Chapter 2197

As the doctor's capture must have put the organization on guard, Alexander and Edward felt it was wise to stay low for now. They

already knew not to do anything reckless after their search for Lily at the embassy.

The atmosphere at Alexander's hwas stifling. Without any positive development, their only good news was the twins’ return

and Lily still being alive. However, no one knew why the organization returned the babies to Alexander.

Worried, he asked Austin to examine the babies several times. He was relieved after ensuring they were not infected with any

viruses. Still, he remained cautious.

Thinking Lily must have fought for their release, he told himself he must protect the twins well.

Although the old maid cared for the babies, Mike checked on them whenever possible. He told the others he wanted to channel his

love and attention toward the twins since Nick was not around.

Although they knew where Nick was, they could do nothing about it. Mike was anxious, but Alexander told him to wait as he worked

on a solution. However, Alexander knew Mike did not trust him.

It was not that Mike did not believe Alexander could do it, but it was simply taking too long. Such a prolonged wait could weaken

one's patience and confidence. It could turn one from being hopeful to disappointment and eventually to despair.

That was the case with Mike. Although he was not in despair yet, he was nearly there.

Alexander understood this but knew sthings were better left unsaid.

As a result, everyone seemed gloomy. Alexander told

Edward to return hsince he had nothing to do there.

Since Edward was not looking too well, Alexander wanted him to recuperate and spend more twith Olivia.

She was about to give birth soon, so it would be best if

Edward were around to look after her. Alexander thought

Lily would want him to do that.

He stood by the window and looked at the view outside. He felt dizzy after settling his company matters. He had never felt so

powerless as he had been recently.

Alexander knew he could overcanything when he first took over La Beauté Group. However, what he faced now made him

realize he could not solve everything.

Suddenly, the doorbell sounded.

Alexander had not received a visitor lately besides Cameron and his men. The former had tried to turn people away and even

participated in meetings online. Therefore, he could not help but look downstairs when he heard the doorbell.

Soon after, a maid hurried in. “Sir, Ms. Anastasia wishes to see you.”

“Tasia?” Alexander thought for a moment, then turned around. “Let her in.”

He tidied himself up and quickly went downstairs. As he reached the stairwell, he saw the maid leading Anastasia inside. Alexander

addressed her, “Hey, Tasia.”

Anastasia smiled.
