However, she could not help but open the chat window again after a while. Nowadays, it should not be a problem for a woman to take the initiative. She convinced herself there was nothing wrong with sending him a text first.

Lily quickly typed, "I’ve arrived!"

Then she sent it out immediately, without giving herself a chance to hesitate.

However, her message seemed to have sunk into the sea. There was no response at all, not even an emoji. Staring at the screen, Lily felt embarrassed. She had taken the initiative, yet there was no reaction from him.

Lily long-pressed her message, wanting to un-send the message, but the time limit for un-sending had lapsed. D*mn it!

She was upset when her phone rang suddenly. Seeing Alexander’s name flashing on her screen, she was excited and wanted to press the answer button.

Just as she was about to answer, she stopped herself abruptly.

No, no, no! Picking it up in such a hurry, wouldn’t it be obvious that she was waiting for his call?

    “There’s a black credit card with no password in your luggage’s middle compartment. You can use it." To Lily’s surprise, Alexander said that.Lily got up quickly and rummaged through her luggage. Sure enough, she found a black credit card with gold accents. It did not look like any ordinary credit card. "When did you put it there?""It doesn't matter. As long as you can use it." After a pause, he continued, "It's not easy being out there, so eating and sleeping well must be your priority. Remember to take care of yourself when I’m not around.”His words moved Lily, and she felt very much at ease.All she knew was to be independent and self-sufficient since her childhood. Now she had someone who would always think about her and be concerned about whether or not she was eating and sleeping well. Her well-being seemed to be the most crucial thing to Alexander."Sure, you too," Lily said softly.Alexander smiled and seemed to recall something, "By the way, I heard the organizers invi

    Lily was surprised. She did not have many friends, but she managed to meet one here in Woodland, and that friend turned up to be someone of high caliber."Well, it’s unexpected, but it’s your blessing." In any case, Alexander was relieved. At least with this relationship, Wesley Parker would not be too hard on her."What kind of blessing is this? I’m in such a dilemma now. Whether I join the competition or not, it will not end well for me." Lily murmured while looking up at the ceiling."Are you afraid?" Alexander turned his chair to face the glass window. Outside was the boundless night view of the city. It was late at night, but he had no intention of going home. Without her, he would much rather stay in the office and face the table full of work."Why would I be afraid? I’ve encountered worse. I can’t control what others say, can I? I’ll do what I must!" Although Lily was complaining, she had already made up her mind.She could not change the situation she was in. She had never

    Brittany Oakley’s hand paused in mid-air. Then she turned around and smiled at Alexander. “Okay, we’ll do it your way.”She went to the office table, put down the bag, and opened it. Inside was a big lunch box. “I know you forget about everything when you work. That includes eating.”She picked up the coffee cup in front of him, then poured away its contents. “Drinking coffee without a proper meal isn’t good for your stomach. You don’t know how to take care of yourself, do you?”As she said that, she opened the lunchbox. Nestled within it was hot food. Not only was the color of the food attractive, but it also smelled mouthwatering.“I cooked your favorite BBQ ribs. I also made fried chicken.” Full of enthusiasm, she placed some cutleries in front of him. With both hands supporting her chin, she looked at him with a yearning expression.Alexander shot her a look and said faintly, “You cooked all this?”“Yes. Quick, sample my handiwork. Go on,” Brittany urged. She smiled so wide t

    Brittany's crush on Alexander was never a secret. Despite his repeated rejections, she never gave up hope. She reasoned that Alexander must have liked her since he remained single. He only treated her like a sister because their families were close, but he secretly loved her.It was that kind of conviction that helped her persist. She believed that one day, she would touch his heart. Sooner or later, he would be hers.Looking at his gloomy expression, Brittany felt a little scared. She bit her lower lip and grabbed his sleeve. “Fine. I’ve not seen you in ages, and I miss you. Please don’t be so fierce. I even went and bought you a late-night snack. It is bad enough that you don’t value it, but you went and scolded me about it.”She pouted. Tears had welled up in her eyes, at the risk of falling at any moment.Alexander looked at her and sighed. “You’re not a kid anymore. Don’t be so wilful. You’re back after half a year so your parents and brother must miss you. You should go home

    His guess was utterly correct. Lily was indeed ready for dinner. Initially, it was enough to pass it off, but Alexander's recommendation roused her interest. To Lily, the joy of life was not only to make fragrances but also to eat. Food must not disappoint. Lily had planned to invite Giselle, but as she approached the latter's door, she second-guessed her decision, given the likelihood that the meal would be filled with constant nagging. Lily gave up and decided to buy takeout for her instead.She called a cab and randomly gave the location of one of the restaurants. Lily could indeed speak the Westwood language. Even if she was there alone, it was not that difficult to communicate, but not many people knew about it. Even Nathaniel might have been unaware that she could speak multiple languages. Lily had a high level of comprehension in her studies. She learned them because she was interested in them. It was easier to look up some foreign fragrance materials or the h

    A boy, maybe five or six years old, was seated on the other side of the woman and was using a knife and fork to eat. He looked like a little gentleman and was quite cute. Probably aware that someone was looking at him, the little boy looked up at Lily and then smiled at her. He was a little shy but very well-behaved. Lily liked it at a glance. The boy was adorable. Seeing him, she suddenly remembered what Alexander had said before. He had assumed she wanted a child and suggested a son and a daughter when she brought the two wood carvings home. At the time, she chastised him for spouting nonsense, but now that she had given it some due thought, she realized that a baby with Alexander would be pretty adorable.Raising the corners of her lips, she turned her head and took a picture of the food with her phone. She then sent it to Alexander with a message, “Food porn.”Considering the jet lag, it must be very late over there, and he had probably gone to bed. She did not

    Lily bent down to check and found the child’s face and neck sweating. When she reached out to touch his back, she found it sweaty too. He was sweating profusely, and his hands and feet trembled. There were also red dots all over his face. "He must be allergic to something," Lily said as she unbuttoned the child's shirt. "What are you doing?! Who are you?! Don't touch my child!" Helen roared. She pulled on Lily's arm, refusing to let her touch the child. "He has an allergic reaction. If we don’t deal with it now, his life may be in danger!" Lily turned her head and shouted back at Helen, who was still dazed. Lily did not give two hoots about Helen being angry with her.Hearing Lily’s words, Lisa finally returned to her senses and bent over to stop Helen. "Lily’s my friend, Helen. She's only trying to help Nick. Don't worry." Anxiousness had probably overcome Helen, or maybe Lisa's words managed to convince her. Helen continued to sob, but she no longer attempted to

    ‘Is this woman really this child’s mother? How does she not know her child has allergies?!’Lily looked at Lisa with puzzlement in her eyes, and Lisa just smiled back helplessly. Coincidentally, the ambulance arrived, and the medical staff rushed over to inspect the child before loading him into the ambulance.Lily heaved a sigh of relief when the medical staff took over. She cleaned her hands and was about to settle the bill and leave when Helen grabbed onto her clothes. “You can’t leave! You have to go to the hospital with me!”“Helen!” Lisa exclaimed, “You can’t do this! Lilsy’s my friend!”“I’m sorry, Lisa,” Helen said as she looked toward Lisa, “I need her to go to the hospital with me even if she is your friend. It’s still uncertain whether Nick will be okay. Who knows if what she did to Nick earlier harmed him instead.”“No, I’m sure it didn’t. I believe in Lilsy,” Lisa swore as she trusted her friend.Helen smiled bitterly. “It’s pointless even if you believe in her. You

    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
