Alexander felt much more relieved after hearing Lily’s confident response, even if it was only meant to comfort him. He felt less anxious and chuckled before imitating her tone, saying, “I know my body well.”

Lily was speechless.

“How are you over there?” Alexander changed the subject.

“Things are going well.” She loosened her hair and shook her head to stretch her neck. She palmed it, looked up, and glanced around before saying blandly, “I can return to you and Galen once I complete the task here. You guys… just be careful.”

Alexander knew the organization monitored her, and it was sometimes inconvenient for her to talk, so he did not ask why she said that.

“I’ll take care of things here, so don’t worry too much. If you experience discomfort, you must tell me, okay?” After a pause, he suddenly sounded much more relaxed. “But I think you’re not infected either.”

Lily was surprised.

“If you are, wouldn’t everyone there be infected as well? Since they’ve created it, they wouldn’t

    “You know you do!” Alexander pulled Austin back forcefully, causing him to lurch due to inertia.Austin was in a momentary daze as he staggered to a stop.Alexander looked at him solemnly. “Now the situation is unclear, and not even Dominic knows what the hell these symbiotes are. You’ll only worsen things by being so reckless.“You especially mustn’t wander around because you’re the source. Your family and the servants might not truly be infected and could be displaying symptoms of other diseases. Therefore, you could play right into the organization’s hands if you recklessly go out there to pick up your family, okay?”His words got through to Austin. Austin cooled down as if a bucket of cold water had poured over him. He opened his mouth. “Then… what should I do?”He was too anxious. He hated himself and wished he had died in that hellhole when he thought about the torment his parents and grandfather might be facing. Now that Alexander had laid it out for Austin, he thought the

    Alexander immediately told his men to carry out his plan while Austin called his family.The latter did not mention the symbiote because it was hard to explain to his family, and he did not want to cause panic. All he said was that there was an unknown disease, and he asked them not to panic nor go anywhere but to recuperate at home as Dominic had started to develop a cure.He also told them Alexander’s men would deliver daily necessities to them and told them not to go to a hospital. Austin knew the hospitals could not deal with the symbiotes, and they might even spread the disease.After the duo settled some things, it was already dark outside. Alexander made a simple meal, and after feeding Galen, he held his son and sat on the balcony to look at the stars. It had been a while since Alexander sat and peacefully gazed at the starry sky.As they were in the suburbs and no buildings or light sources were around, the stars shone brightly in the clear night sky. The twinkling stars w

    Lily spent the entire day at the laboratory and read the document about R10. There was no huge problem; it was more or less the same as the previous experiments regarding its focus on toxins.However, it was interesting that the drug formula included medicine that could enhance one’s muscles and bones. Although it would not counteract the effects of other ingredients, Lily could not figure out the purpose of its addition.‘They’re trying to poison someone secretly and simultaneously enhance the muscles and bones? It doesn’t make sense!’Of course, she did not ask about it. She knew they would not tell her if she did, and even if they did tell her, it might not be the truth. She felt what they were trying to do was too bizarre.‘The organization seems to be trying to rule the world as they could use the things they created to control people. Yet they spend so much effort using raw materials to make their creations undetectable.’She had a hunch there must be a deeper purpose to it.

    After finishing what she was doing, Lily turned around and looked at Rhea nonchalantly.Rhea was standing behind her, observing. However, the disdain and disapproval on her face were unmistakable.Lily did not care. She smiled lightly and continued, "Don't you know that every failure looks the same but is actually different? You might think the steps are the same, but as a matter of fact, even a subtle difference will cause a significant change in results."After a pause, she added, "It's no wonder you keep failing even after doing so many experiments."This sentence was like salt to Rhea's wounds. Her expression changed immediately. She always thought highly of herself, while others praised her, from her studies to her work ethic. It was not until entering participating in this project that she constantly felt frustrated.She also did not know much about raw materials.Rhea had never liked perfumes or fragrances, so she had never studied or even wanted to fiddle with them. Now,

    "Shut the f*ck up!" Lily spat coldly, "I know how cold-blooded you are, but even if you don't care that you'll go to hell, you should still show some respect for your parents’ sake."Now, Rhea felt even more shaken. She held her face and stared at Lily bitterly, clenching her teeth but not daring to say another word. She knew she did not have the skills to beat Lily.She sneered. "I don't know how good of a person you've been, but since you're doing this experiment, aren't you just like me? Let's see who gets their retribution faster!"After hearing this, Lily suddenly thought of something and asked, "Do you know what happened to Austin?"Rhea was shocked for a moment before laughing again. Her complacent smile was still apparent on her face. "What's with it? Is it happening already?"Lily felt even more convinced that Rhea knew what was happening. It was even possible that she made this symbiote."It's just symbiotes, so what if anything is happening?" Lily muttered disapproving

    Rhea looked at Lily’s indifferent expression and genuinely could not tell whether or not what she said was true."Rhea, enough with your arrogance," Lily dropped her smile, hoping Rhea could reflect on herself."You're the arrogant one!" However, Rhea did not listen and narrowed her eyes slightly. "Lily Christian, I can't wait to see what will happen to you!"With that, she turned and left the laboratory.Lily's eyes became colder as she watched Rhea leave.Rhea was right. Lily was just pulling her leg.Based on what Alexander had said on the phone, Lily did not even know what kind of symbiote was in Austin's body and how it spread, let alone how to cure it. But since Rhea knew about it, she must know what symbiote it was and how to dispel it.From what she had inadvertently revealed just now, the symbiote was probably not from West Virho but from abroad. It was undoubtedly correct to start with ancient medical books. Still, they might also need to combine it with some foreign k

    Since Alexander had called Mike before this, Mike immediately knew what Lily was implying and quickly defended himself, "No, of course not! I know I’ve lost your trust, but I promise I didn’t know about that!“Besides, you can see I don't have any power here. He doesn't trust me. I couldn’t have known about that," he paused before continuing in annoyance, "At that time, I felt there was no need to involve innocent people, and that Austin guy was suffering here.“So, when I saw the opportunity, I let him go. I didn't expect it to be part of their plan. They dug a hole for me to fall into. I… They tricked me!"The situation annoyed Mike whenever he thought about it. He did not expect to fall for someone else’s tricks after all his calculations. The thought of this left him in cold sweats as well. He thought he had everything planned, but his every move was under their surveillance.He subconsciously raised his head to look around as he thought about it, fearing the organization might

    Everyone had a motive here, but Lily could only adapt to the situation when faced with these cunning individuals. Meanwhile, Mike did not understand this but still nodded. "Don't worry. I'll find a way to get clues from Rhea."After a pause, he asked uncertainly, "But…how do you know it’s her?""I'm sure of it," Lily answered with certainty."Unless there are other masters in medicinal herbs here," she added.Mike immediately shook his head. "There isn't! Besides you and Rhea, everyone else is proficient in modern medicine.”This, he was sure of, as all the personnel here had to go through him. Of course, he could not rule out that there might be some things he did not know about. Despite that, he had not encountered anyone or learned anything about it.Lily nodded and pondered seriously before asking, "Are there any Arkadians here?"Mike was stunned for a moment by this question. "I don't think so.""Are you sure?"This continuous questioning made him hesitant as he shook his

    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
