“It's complete!” Rhea exclaimed a little too excitedly. However, before she could take a look, Lily glanced back at her and said, “Don’t move.”

Rhea immediately fell silent. The most exasperating thing for her was that she had subconsciously obeyed Lily's instructions.

"Lily, don't make a mountain out of a molehill," Rhea complained angrily, "Do you honestly think you're so great? Let me tell you something. If this experiment fails, nothing good will happen to you."

"We’ll only know that once I fail," Lily said calmly with a slight smile, "What's wrong? Are you hoping I’ll fail?"

"How do I…" Before Rhea could finish speaking, she noticed Lily had already gotten up and walked toward the instrument. Lily turned off the switch unhurriedly and took out a few small vials to place them on the shelf next to her.

Rhea became nervous as she looked at the clear liquid inside and the data on the computer frantically refreshed. She fixed her eyes on the screen unblinkingly, while Lily seemed

    Rhea had never been jealous of anyone else besides Anastasia. However, she only felt that way as a child and desired attention. She felt her mother had treated Anastasia better than her and wondered why her parents favored Anastasia in her own home.It honed Rhea’s feelings of dissatisfaction and unfairness. Still, she was no longer a little girl who yearned for her parents’ love but an independent and confident woman.Rhea had always considered herself strong, capable, and somewhat of a prodigy. She knew she would make significant career progress and impress the world with her knowledge. However, this experiment’s repeated failure frustrated her.Since the organization insisted on onboarding Lily, she had subconsciously hoped Lily would fail. Everyone encountered obstacles when conducting this experiment, so Rhea thought Lily should not be an exception. However, reality gave Rhea a hard blow, letting her know she was not as special as she thought.But now, she had gotten slapped i

    “I can't consider this experiment a complete success,” Lily said lightly. Her reaction was so bizarre that Rhea did not know what to say. She wondered why Lily did not react how she typically would.As Rhea remained stunned, she overheard Lily say, "Didn't I tell you not to move?"That one sentence immediately returned Rhea to her senses. She took it as an outlet to vent her emotions and ruthlessly threw the tray aside. The contents on the tray clinked and knocked into one another."Why can't I move? What temperature are you talking about? You're toying with me! Who knows, you might’ve cheated on this experiment too?!" Rhea's arm was sore from holding the tray. Plus, Lily's reaction was unexpected, making Rhea both angry and jealous. As a result, she spat out a string of incoherent words.Then Lily’s answer almost sent her off the handle. Lily nodded and seriously said, “You’re right. I’m just pulling your leg.”Rhea was speechless.“There’s no such thing as constant human body t

    Rick glanced over quietly, looking at Lily beside him. "If the experiment is successful, why didn't you second it?"Lily looked disappointed as she leaned back and moved her wrist around. "I just finished, and we can consider it completely successful.""What do you mean by that?" Rick questioned suspiciously with a frown."After all, these are just computer data. I haven't verified if there will be any errors. On top of that, I can't guarantee the end product’s stability. Therefore, I can’t completely regard it as successful," Lily sighed and said, "It's not a success.""You…" Rhea had said those words just now, and Lily used them to explain things to Rick. Rhea did not understand what was going through Lily’s mind.‘As researchers, aren’t we supposed to hope for successful results when experimenting? The joy in a successful experiment is indescribable.’Rhea would not be standing there calmly if she had succeeded. Instead, she would be shouting it from the rooftops. She initiall

    Rick’s voice was cold, and the temperature in the room seemed to have dropped several degrees.Rhea shrank her shoulders. Mike, on the sidelines, hurried forward to smooth things over. “Lily, don’t be too hard on yourself. Since everyone thinks this experiment is a success, it must be successful. You’ve done a great job. No one could do this until now.”Then he turned to Rick and continued, “I believe the higher-ups must be anxiously waiting. Now isn’t the time to argue about this. Anyway, let’s submit the experimental results to them first. What do you think?”Rick seemed to have loosened up after hearing what Mike said. He turned to look at the tubes on the shelf beside him, then glanced at the computer again. “It’s those, right?”Before Lily could speak, Rhea quickly responded, “Yes, those are the ones. I’ll pack them right away.”She feared Lily would say something untimely, so she took the lead. Lily watched from the side and did not move a muscle. She observed Rhea seal the

    Rick laughed with a sinister smile that sent shivers down everyone’s spine.Lily was shocked. “So, you’re dismissing it? Is this just a scam?!”She wanted to shake him off but soon realized his technique was unique. Rick did not use much force, but Lily could not break free because of his special stance. Although Lily’s arm did not hurt, she still could not shake him.Considering his skills, Lily might have to fight for an hour to beat him. Of course, that was if she was her former self. Lily could not beat him with her current stature. Up until this point, she realized she had underestimated the enemy.With her kickboxing background and profound knowledge, she was confident she could easily defeat any ordinary fighter, even if pregnant. She believed she could easily handle the situation. However, she never expected the evil organization to have expert kickboxers like Rick in addition to firearms.She feared brute force would not work. Ultimately, she sighed and said, “Okay, I’ll

    "You've worked hard." Mike nodded. This was the first time he acknowledged what she said. He hated Rhea because she was vicious, scheming, and had no boundaries. Her heart was as black as coal. However, she had indeed worked very hard.Mike could see the efforts she had put in regarding experimenting. Regardless of whether he had woken up early or gone to bed late, he noticed she was always in the laboratory, experimenting all day and night.Rhea was either reading books or looking up information. He had never seen another woman that was as hardworking as her."Then, why is God so unfair?!" She slammed her hands onto the table, venting her dissatisfaction.‘I worked so hard but failed, while Lily casually…’"Hard work is nothing in the face of a prodigy," Mike said."Huh?!" Rhea suddenly turned her head to look at him with surprise.Mike breathed a sigh of relief before saying, "Yes, you’re hardworking and talented, but there will always be an inherent gap between gifted individ

    “Although none of the workers here are loyal to the organization, at least we wanted the experiment to work, unlike you and Lily, who came here to sabotage the experiment. Who else would have done it besides you two?”“It’s pointless to make false accusations.” Mike turned around, not wanting to continue the conversation.‘I don’t care if she did find out about it or is simply trying to trick me—it’s just a waste of time arguing with her.’“It doesn’t matter anymore since the organization has abandoned the boss. Now that the experiment has worked, you, me, the boss, we’re all expendable.” Rhea suddenly burst into laughter.As if she had just said the funniest thing in the world, she laughed so hard that she half-collapsed on the table.Mike was somehow affected by what she said.‘She’s right. Now that the experiment has succeeded, everyone has become expendable.’He could not help but feel a profound sorrow, realizing he had failed to determine what the organization was truly up

    Rhea glanced at Mike’s hands and exclaimed coldly, “Get your hands off me!”She looked fierce after dropping her smile.Mike loosened his grip but did not let go. “Rhea, what’s the experiment’s last step? Haven’t we completed it?”He subconsciously looked toward the computer. Although he could not understand what was on the screen, he roughly knew what it was about.‘Doesn’t the data indicate the experiment’s success? Why would Rhea and Lily say the experiment has worked if it doesn't?’Rhea followed his line of sight and looked toward the screen before chuckling. “Do you think the experiment is about creating the product?”“It’s not?” Mike noticed her staring coldly at his hands and quickly let her go while softening his tone, “I’d like to know exactly what you’re talking about.”“Must I tell you? We’re not on good terms, aren’t we?” Rhea asked.Mike knew they almost resembled enemies. However, he also knew they had no reason to hate each other so profoundly. Besides, their fa

    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
