"All right, I understand." She nodded. When she saw that Edmund was still standing there, she asked, "Is there anything else, Dr. Morris?"

There was no answer.

In the end, he couldn't hold himself back any longer and asked, "Dr. Russell… Are you sure about Debbie?"

Although he had nothing good to say before, there were so many people around who belonged to different factions. He knew he should not question his colleagues in public, even if he did not fully trust her.

Questioning her in public would cause a division in the team. There were many things that science couldn't explain, and everything must be viewed from multiple perspectives to come to a conclusion.

She looked intently on him. If this person had questioned her in the ward before, she would not have even bothered to explain.

Lily did not see the need to try and change people's preconceived doubts about her way of treating them.

    "Dashiell Stone!" Edmund stopped and turned to face him solemnly. "You made a mistake in the data last time. I hope you won't repeat it!"A trace of impatience immediately flashed across Dashiell's face when Edmund mentioned the mistake. Dashiell sighed and put his arm around Edmund's shoulder. "I know, I know! It's just a tiny mistake! You can tell at a glance that I didn't do it on purpose!“Dr. Morris, you're the best. What about a drink as a toast to how good you've been to all of us?""No drinking during working hours!" Edmund frowned. "Where do you even get the alcohol?"The department prepared every meal here, and they could not go home to drink at will. Where were they going to have a toast?Dashiell burst out laughing when he saw the look on Edmund's face. "I'm just kidding! Of course, I don't have any alcohol on me. It's a joke! I mean, in the future, once this is all over. We must go out to drink as a celebration. It's my way of thanking you!""It's part of my duty." E

    After returning to his senses, Edmund seemed to have relaxed a little. However, he persisted. "Dr. Stone. Those who come here are not ordinary people. You aren't a nobody either. Dr. Blanc mentioned before that we should focus on beating the virus rather than other people's affairs. What we should do now is focus on doing our tasks well."After a pause, he continued, "We corrected the mistake you previously made in the nick of time, so there were no irreparable consequences. It wasn't reported to the higher-ups as well. However, if there happens to be another…""No, no. There won't be a next time!" Dashiell interjected and said smilingly, "I promise I won't make such a rookie mistake again! You're right, Dr. Morris. I shouldn't ask so many questions. All right, time's almost up. I should get back to work!"After he finished speaking, he retracted his arm and left.Edmund looked at Dashiell walking away and shook his head helplessly before continuing along his path.…"How’s every

    "You mean those groups of losers?!" The man laughed sarcastically, not taking what Mike said seriously.Mike shook his head. "No. I heard that a group of professionals has gathered to study this virus. I'm afraid that…""Enough of being scared! There's a saying that you Hyderlanders like to say; you can't get out of the house if you live in fear!" With a cold snort, the man continued indifferently, "The whole world had been studying it for two to three months, yet, what's the result? How smart do you think Hyderlanders are? You guys are nothing!""With that said," Mike paused. "Don't forget that Lily and Rhea are from Hyderland. We Hyderlanders aren't as dimwitted as you think. You still need our help at the end of the day."What Mike said immediately reminded the man of something as he squinted his eyes. "Forget Rhea. Didn't I ask you to get Lily for me? What have you been doing? If she isn't working for me, there’s no use for her to live any longer!""As I said, she's not as sof

    In the face of his interrogation, Rhea did not falter. Instead, she smiled and said, "Oh? Are you trying to draw attention to me? Mike, remember that we have different responsibilities. I am in charge of research and development, while you're in charge of logistics.“What's more, isn't Lily an old friend of yours? Don't you know her son quite well? Don't you think you’ll be the best person to kidnap her son?""It's because I know her very well that it's easier for me to scare the snake if I come forward." Mike squinted at her as he studied the attractive face in front of him. However, the twinkle in her eyes couldn't hide the conniving person she was."Rhea, you said you're in research and development, but what have you developed? You've been using products we’ve developed through previous research. You know what the boss wants the most, yet it seems you're not succeeding. You're starting to make me doubt your ability.""You…" Rhea's expression changed after being called out.Howe

    "Okay!" Rhea agreed without batting an eye.The man was delighted. With a slight nod, his gaze softened a lot. "Rhea, do you know what I like most about you?""I wouldn't dare to assume," she replied lightly."I like how heartless and ruthless you are, unlike Mike Corden! People who are destined for great things shouldn't be so weak. I chose you among many outstanding graduates for how cold-hearted you are."Rhea's face remained unmoved. "You're right, Boss.""How is R7 doing?" He suddenly asked, changing the subject."The first trial of R7 is obedient and easy. Otherwise, we wouldn't be able to transfer to the new base so quickly. Boss, rest assured that I have everything under control," she said confidently.Taking a deep look at her, the man lightly tapped the back of his hand with his fingers. "I remember you mentioning that the effect on R7 was unpredictable. How did you manage to get it under control?""It's not out of control. I'm just unsure of the full extent of the ef

    "Grandpa, tea time." The small voice sounded tender and polite. Dominic turned around and saw Galen holding a big tray while a servant stood carefully behind him to ensure he didn't drop it. The little guy was too stubborn and insisted on holding the tray himself. The servant had no choice but to help him from behind."It's okay. Go ahead and eat," Dominic replied gently with a smile."Grandpa, eat!" Galen stood on his tiptoes, trying to lift the tray. However, he couldn't put it on the table due to his limited stature.The child wobbled and was about to fall when Dominic hurriedly supported the tray with one hand and caught him with the other. "Oh, my little treasure!"The servant on the side also hurried over to help with the tray. Then Dominic carried the child into his arms. "You can't let me relax?""Eat!" Galen sat in Dominic's arms and continued to reach out for the tray.In the end, Dominic had no choice but to beckon the servant to put the tray down. Then he took a s

    Daniel had not set foot in Dominic’s vast house for years. Now trembling on his crutches, Daniel slowly walked in with the support of his son and daughter-in-law. He did not sit down. Instead, he slowly looked around until he heard footsteps and saw Dominic walking out.Daniel immediately felt his eyes burning as he hurried forward to meet Dominic, wanting to hold his hand. "Dom!"However, Daniel could not stand on his own and almost fell before taking more than two steps forward. Fortunately, someone managed to catch him.Elijah hurriedly over to steady him. "Dad, slow down.""Why are you still so easily excitable at this age?" Dominic grumbled with a frown, casting Daniel a sideways glance. Then he took Galen's hand and sat down unhurriedly with a frown still on his face.Everyone was surprised to see the child, especially Daniel. He could not help but fix his gaze on Galen. "Dom, this is…""This is none of your business!" Dominic snapped. "You're already so old. Why don't you

    "How can you say that, Uncle Dom?!" Elijah could not stand and watch any longer. "You're an elder. Austin even calls you his granduncle. We've never once disrupted your peace because we know you dislike us.“We've never taken any credit for your doings because we know you don't see us as your family, but what did Austin do?"Dominic glanced at Elijah and sneered before coldly answering, "How should I say it? Okay, what about this? Your father said the same thing to me. I'm just repeating after him. What's wrong with that?"Elijah did not understand what Dominic meant. When Elijah turned to look at his father, Daniel lowered his gaze.After a deep sigh, he slowly raised his head again. "Dom, you don't plan on forgiving me, do you?""Since we've cut ties, we should keep our distance. There's no point in forgiving!" Looking at Galen's cute and innocent face, Dominic smiled, but the smile never reached his eyes.Galen looked up at him, and although he could not understand what the ad

    Lily tilted her head up to fight back her tears, saying, “There’s something I find strange.”“What is it?” Mike asked after comforting his son.“Instead of detaining Prince Ross, Her Majesty has sent him back to Yudonia. If so, why couldn’t we reach him?”After some thought, Mike answered, “There are two possibilities. It’s probably due to poor signals, or he doesn’t want us to contact him.”The two shared a look, knowing what each other was wondering.‘Why can’t we contact Ross? Is he planning something?’…Three days later, Lily inserted the last needle into the queen’s leg and looked up at her, saying, “You should start feeling your legs tomorrow. Still, it’ll take some time before you can stand.”Suddenly, Lily chuckled.“Why are you laughing?” Yasmin touched her legs. She had begun to regain sensation in her legs over the last two days. She then began to believe that she could get up. However, the queen was hesitant when the queen heard Lily chuckle.Lily shook her head

    Lily straightened up and said without resentment, “Of course, you wouldn’t.”“That’s… quite a pity,” the queen murmured thoughtfully.“Well, there’s a price to pay for everything. That’s how the world balances itself,” Lily continued, “I can’t stop you if you must carry on with R10. Still, I won’t witness whether or not it succeeds. I just wish the outcome isn’t something you’ll regret.”Lily smiled and turned to head out the door.Rick heard their conversation as he stood guard outside. After exchanging looks with Lily as she brushed past him, he entered the room and saw the needles in Yasmin’s legs. “Your Majesty, those needles—”The queen waved dismissively. “It’s okay. Lily will remove them later.”Even so, Rick was wary. “You’re being too careless, Your Majesty. What if that woman—”“She wouldn’t,” Yasmin interjected, shaking her head."Why do you trust her so much?" Rick asked despite himself. The queen fell silent. If Rick had not asked her that, she would not have rea

    Lily took out a cloth and unfolded it, revealing a row of silver needles inside. Yasmin was surprised she carried the needles with her.“Tell me. What do you want?” The queen took a deep breath to calm herself. She then reminded herself that she could always say no to Lily’s request. Still, Yasmin was cautious about Lily trying to trick her.Lily casually said, "I left because Prince Ross wanted to help me. I hope you don’t punish him.""That's it?" Yasmin thought she had misheard Lily. 'Is she trying to talk terms with me just so that I won't punish my son?' she wondered in disbelief."Ross is my son. I won't harm him. Don't you think you've wasted an opportunity by making such a request?" The queen shook her head. "I wasn’t sure if you’d blame him, but he did rescue me once. If I don't do anything, it would be ungrateful of me," Lily said gently, "Also, didn’t you already lock him up?"Yasmin was puzzled. "No, I only sent him back to Yudonia. He kept trying to get me to sto

    "Three days," Lily replied.“That’s it?!” Yasmin was in disbelief. She thought Lily would try to buy some more time and suspected she would say the process would take several months or even years.‘I haven’t felt my legs for over a decade. I wouldn’t mind waiting for three more days.’“Are you sure I can get up and walk in just three days?” Yasmin pressed her legs hard but felt nothing. She would have treated her legs long ago if it were that easy.The queen had visited many famous doctors from various countries, but they could only stop her legs from getting weaker. However, Lily confidently told Yasmin that she could fix her legs so quickly.Yasmin wanted to believe it.After some consideration, Lily said, “I can’t guarantee that you’ll walk as fast as you once could. After all, you haven’t used your legs for a long time, and your muscles have atrophied. Still, you’ll recover slowly.”Yasmin nodded repeatedly, thinking it was good enough. She never dreamed of walking as well a

    “Because only our opinions matter." Lily thought of something and said, "Unless you choose to believe Rhea.""I… don't trust anyone." Yasmin’s expression stiffened as she turned her wheelchair away."Your Majesty, I know you're dedicated to the experiment, but there are other things in life. Have you ever considered letting go of your burden to sightsee? You’ve done enough as a queen over the last few decades. Aren’t you tired of living a lonely life?”Lily gently spoke as she gazed at Yasmin’s back.The older woman caressed her knees with both hands and stared down at her legs, murmuring, “Sightsee, huh? I’ve forgotten what that’s like.”Yasmin had not used her legs for many years. Initially, she could still stand up and sometimes took a few steps. However, she could no longer get to her feet.She had grown accustomed to sitting in a wheelchair, but she felt a pang of sorrow after hearing Lily’s suggestion.Lily asked, “What if I can help you stand again? What if you can walk a

    "Yes, I returned not just for him but also for you," Lily said, "I'm sure you were anxious for my return, weren't you?"Yasmin scoffed dismissively. "Why would I be? I have my bargaining chip. Besides, did you honestly think I couldn’t bring you back?""Bargaining chip? Do you mean Nick?" Lily shook her head with a smile. "Don't forget that he's not my son. Do you think he'll be much of a bargaining chip to you if I choose to ignore him for my three children?"She did not wait for Yasmin to reply and continued, "Besides, Nick still has a father who’s willing to die for him. If Mike decides to take drastic action against you— Yes, you're a queen, and you don't care much about an insignificant businessman.“However, don't forget that his business spans worldwide. There's no guarantee what he might do. Who knows, he might spread information that can affect Your Majesty and Yudonia's reputation?""You…" The queen was exasperated but could not retort.Lily noticed it and casually said

    Rick could only remain silent at that moment.Yasmin then turned her wheelchair around and blandly said, “Bring Lily over. I’d like to see what excuses that sly woman can come up with.”"Your Majesty?" Rick was puzzled. "You know she'll just lie to you. Why must you—"Yasmin interjected, "I'd like to hear what she has to say."Rick had no choice but to leave and do as she said.As Lily was about to doze off, she heard noises from outside and opened her eyes. Immediately after, the door opened, and Rick appeared. He glared at her and spoke coldly, “Her Majesty wants to see you.”Lily glanced at Rick calmly and stood up as if she had expected his appearance. On the other hand, Mike rose before her and headed out.However, Rick stopped him as he reached the door. “You stay.”"But we came together!" Mike glanced over his shoulder at Lily, signaling her to persuade the man. Rick added, "The queen doesn’t wish to see you. Just stay here!"Lily patted Mike's shoulder and said gentl

    Everyone was shocked when Lily returned to the embassy with Mike. One of the staff members quickly left to report the news to Queen Yasmin.Meanwhile, Lily saw people peering at her and Mike from the corner. Afterward, several guarded-looking men appeared. Lilt recognized them as the queen’s attendants. They brought Mike and Lily inside and then gave the duo a thorough search.The men only relaxed after finding nothing suspicious about the duo. Even so, Lily could not see the queen as the men told her to wait in an innermost room instead.After returning to the embassy, Lily felt a sense of strange familiarity. Although she knew the place well, her mindset had changed.She previously hated the embassy and simply wanted to escape. However, she had returned with a critical mission. Not only did she have to complete it, but she also needed to leave the place in one piece.While she was calm, Mike was somewhat anxious. He clasped his hands on his knees and glanced around as he sat dow

    "I promise I'll do anything you want, okay?" Mike begged. He was desperate to see his son, so he decided to follow Lily when she insisted on returning to the embassy.Mike continued, “If any of you go with her, they might stop or suspect you. They won’t do that to me. It’s natural for me to want to see and rescue my son. I’m the best candidate because it makes sense for me to sacrifice myself for him.”After a short silence, Lily said, “You’re right.” She then looked at Alexander, who pondered before slowly raising his head and saying, “Me too.”Dominic tapped the table. "So do I."Cameron thought for a moment before saying, "I've no objections."Seeing this, Austin spread his arms and said, "Since you all agree, what else can I say? Let's do it!"It did not matter whether or not he agreed, but he just wanted to support Mike. The latter nodded and became emotional, saying, “Thanks, you guys!”"Why are you thanking us? Just be careful, and don’t be rash like you promised," Aust
