"Okay," Fred said, "I'll give you an hour. After you finish, shower, change, and cto my office. There's something | need you to

Fred sized her up and nodded. "You look great! Tellabout your plan."
Rhea tried not to show her frustration, saying, "I'll spike the drinks and hypnotize him as we chat. Then, he'll unwittingly fall under
my control."
"No!" Fred met her puzzled gaze. "He's a cautious man. He won't drink what you bring him."
Rhea said, "I'll coax him, okay? I'll think of ways to get him to take the drug."
"You underestimate him." Fred knew how difficult Ross could be.
"Then what?" Upon hearing Fred's words, Rhea no longer knew what to do.
"Don't worry about the drug. I'll find a way." Fred leaned against his desk and said thoughtfully, "Just ensure you hypnotize him and
that your drug will work."
Rhea straightened up and smiled. "I promise it'll work!"

As his information was similar, she knew her target was the prince. Rhea also asked a few questions about Ross and discovered
how long he planned to stay. She also found out Ross was not just there for official business but also to investigate Fred.
Having received unexpected information, Rhea was excited and satisfied because it showed the hypnosis worked on Mike.
