Austin felt Ross didn’t completely understand what was going on, so he explained, “No. Based on the conversation, Fred has failed and been imprisoned. It sounds like Rick and Rhea haven’t been punished.”

“Fred failed?” Ross knitted his brow and thought momentarily before saying, “So he has started the experiment? Then, my mom—”

“She should be fine now,” Alexander quickly said, “Based on the conversation, Fred has failed, and the one in charge now should be Her Majesty."

“My mom’s in charge?” Ross was surprised. “But didn’t Fred hold her captive?”

"Her Majesty is a smart woman. Perhaps she was only playing along," Alexander said solemnly.

Although the conversation didn't seem like much, it provided the crucial information. The group discovered the queen had taken control of the situation.

"You're saying my mom purposely led Fred to believe that he had the upper hand?" Catching on, Ross said, "I was so worried about her. Looks like I've underestimated her, huh?"

    The others remained quiet. Everyone, including Ross, knew what was going on. It was just that Ross was reluctant to face the truth."No, I don't believe it!" the prince said grimly, one hand propping against the table. Although politicians often operated in grey areas, he knew what those experiments were all about. Many died in Yudonia during the pandemic, and even those who received a cure still suffered from it.Having visited those patients around the country, he felt terrible for them. When Ross found out that the virus might be related to Fred and even spread from Yudonia, he was both shocked and angry. He then started to think about ways to deal with the duke. Yet, they now told him that his mother was the mastermind. All this while, he had looked up to her. Although she hadn't spent much time with him, he knew she was busy running the country. He understood how difficult the job was and how great a person she was.As Ross was still a prince even at his age, some laughed a

    Alexander was right. They couldn't stop Ross because he was determined to go back.More than twenty minutes after the prince left, Mike suddenly slapped his thigh. "Shit!"Busy with their tasks, the other two turned to look at him. "What's wrong?" "Now that Ross is going back, won't Rhea find out that her hypnosis didn't work?" Mike asked. After a moment of silence, Austin said, "Actually, I don't think it matters anymore. She has failed to control you. If she's smart, she should know that her drug and hypnosis didn’t work. It's crazy that she even wanted to control a person's mind." Austin was shocked when he knew what her purpose was. After all, the human spirit was something mysterious. No one could control a person's mind through alternative medicine. Even if it could work, the side effects would be tremendous.Therefore, it was absurd that a mainstream medicine practitioner like Rhea would even think about doing so using drugs and hypnosis. Alexander nodded. "I think

    It was clear what Rick was implying. Ross nodded and said, “I see. I didn’t know. Is my mother still asleep?”Rick glanced over his shoulder and grunted a yes before saying, “She might wake up later than usual since she slept late. I’m afraid you’ll have to wait for a while, Your Highness.”"That’s okay, I can wait." Just as he turned to leave, he remembered something and asked, "Where's Fred?"After a moment's hesitation, Rick answered, "We’ve arrested him." "Where is he? Take me to him." Ross had questions for the duke. However, Rick remained still and said blandly, "Her Majesty told me not to let anyone near or see him because he's a felon now." "Not even me?" the prince asked, somewhat upset. "Please understand, Your Highness," Rick said courteously and firmly, "I'm just following Her Majesty's orders."In other words, he couldn't make exceptions for anyone. Ross looked at him intensely and said coldly, "I know." He then turned and headed toward the room where he us

    Furthermore, Ross wouldn't have found out about Rick if the latter didn't show himself. Ross could not help but wonder if there were more like Rick.Rick pressed the elevator button and stood aside to make room for the prince. The former then lowered his head slightly. "I can't answer your question, Your Highness." His answer was again courteous and firm. Ross knew Rick couldn't tell him but was surprised he was so direct. Ross raised his brow and said, “Good. I hope you can stay loyal, unlike Fred.”Rick wasn’t upset when the prince compared him to Fred. Instead, Rick remained impassive. Soon after, he led Ross to the reception room.He was stunned when he realized it wasn’t his mother’s room. Ross sounded angry, saying, “The reception room?”"Yes, Your Highness. Please wait for a moment," Rick said and left.Someone else soon brought Ross a cup of coffee and went away. After a while, Ross heard a wheelchair and steady footsteps nearby. He knew his mother had arrived.The do

    Ross thought his mother did not know that Fred wanted to control him, but he finally realized she knew everything. Although Yasmin appeared to be held captive by Fred, she had everything under control.She could have done something, but she did not stop Fred from misleading Ross and making him leave. She just stood by and feigned ignorance. Ross even wondered what his mother would do if Fred had indeed managed to take over his mind. 'Would she try and save me or abandon me? No, she would never save me. She didn't even try to warn me, even though she knew I was in danger. I guess I'm nothing to her compared to her throne, huh?'Ross found it hard to accept.Still, Yasmin looked at him without remorse. She said blandly, "Yes, I knew. I also knew about Fred telling Rhea to hypnotize you and get you to look for me in Hyderland’s mountainous area. I even thought it was stupid of you to fall for it."Nodding, Ross said, "Indeed, I was stupid enough to believe that you needed help." T

    "Why didn't you tell me?" Ross said, "So that's why you want to continue the experiment?"Yasmin nodded. "At first, I thought I would be dying soon. I even considered choosing a successor among your brothers. But then, one day, Fred suddenly told me that he found a way to achieve immortality, and we could set up a lab to research it."Her eyes began to light up. She still remembered it was a cloudy day, and she felt depressed. Her body also felt sore due to the weather. As the pain tormented her and the fear of death neared, Fred appeared to tell her the good news.She did not believe it initially, but Fred said the experiment had worked before and showed her an ancient text with strange symbols and characters. He said experts had translated it and confirmed that it contained a formula for immortality.He then began to paint her a wonderful picture of what would happen if the experiment succeeded, and she was hooked.At that moment, the sun shone through the parting clouds, and ev

    “Ross, you're not as young as you used to be. How could you not understand?” Yasmin looked helpless. "Sacrifices are always necessary to accomplish great things. Countless died to build our country’s foundation.“As the crown prince, how could you not understand that?" she stressed as if teaching him how to be a king. "These sacrifices are nothing compared to the great achievements we're about to make."Disappointed, Ross asked, "So you admit that you allowed Fred to do all that?"Still, Yasmin remained indifferent. "I only knew about it. I never asked him to do those things."She did not feel guilty. If she had stopped Fred, he would know he had lost her trust. By then, he might not have devoted himself to researching immortality. Simultaneously, Yasmin knew she had to give him some perks in return for his service.Otherwise, Fred would never have worked so hard for it."You only knew about it?!" Ross slammed the table angrily. "You indulged him! Didn't you see how many innocent

    "Your Majesty!" Rick quickly held Yasmin and instructed the guards to take Ross away.The latter was reluctant to leave at first, but when he saw his ill-looking mother, he yielded.Yasmin’s breathing was still uneven, even after her son left. Rick then sent her back to her room and got a doctor to examine her.After a detailed examination, the doctor shook his head. "Her Majesty's blood pressure and heart rate are very high. We must take emergency measures." "Then do it!""But Her Majesty is weak. I don't know…” The doctor was unsure if Yasmin could cope. "You should know what’ll happen to you guys if anything bad were to happen to her." Alarmed, the doctor quickly started emergency treatment. Rick looked on for a moment and then thought of something. He then left the room and whispered something to the guard outside.Soon, the guard brought Dominic over. "Please save her, sir," Rick said courteously, knowing Yasmin respected Dominic.Since the guard had brought the old

    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
