After dinner, Lily got up to clear the dishes, but Alexander pulled her again. “I told you to stay put.” He frowned disapprovingly. “I forbid you from entering the kitchen again. You aren’t allowed to go in.”

Lily felt helpless, "I used to cook by myself, so..."

“That was before, but you’re not allowed to from now on!” Alexander neatly stacked the tableware and went to the kitchen. Soon, the sound of rushing water echoed as Lily walked over and leaned against the kitchen door frame to look at Alexander with his sleeves rolled up high, revealing his lean arms.

His skin was particularly fair, but not like an unhealthy person’s. He looked strong and manly. Lily thought of Alexander’s hands tightly wrapping around her waist, and her body trembled instinctively.

“Are you going to respond?” Alexander asked while washing the dishes. Lily was stunned as she did not fully catch what he said. “Huh? What?”

“About those boring things on Twitter,” Alexander turned and glanced at Lily as he spo

    Lucas shook his head, “I am not sure about that, but Ms. Christian’s attitude was steadfast in her tone. We can almost guarantee our victory based on the evidence we have so far. Therefore, you don’t need to worry too much, Mr. Hall.”Still, Nathaniel was distraught. How could he not be?The lawyer was not worried because he had only seen superficial evidence. After all, Nathaniel knew the company's products had succeeded over the years because of Lily's efforts. Why was she so decisive that there was no turning back? Nathaniel was stuck between a rock and a hard place. If he could not turn the tide, everyone at MN Inc. would have to fight until the bitter end.Lily should know that she had no chance of winning, but why did she refuse to give in? Did Rebirth give her confidence, or was she holding a hidden trump card? Nathaniel was at a loss for an answer.“Understood. When will the court session begin?”“Next week.”“Get ready. Also, call Lily a few more times. Tell her we can s

    “Let’s fight then,” Melanie said with disregard. “We have enough evidence since I’ve already copied all the information, and we have a professional legal team. Why should we be afraid of her?” Speaking of the information, Melanie lifted her hand and looked it over. “See? My hand is swollen and in pain! Why would I need to work so hard if it weren’t for her? Nate, we must ensure she doesn’t have the upper hand. You must teach her a lesson this time! How could she treat you like this?”Nathaniel pushed Melanie away when she leaned over, as he was not in the mood. He was not as optimistic as she was. “I keep feeling that she has a trick up her sleeve. Why else would she insist on going to court when she knows all the evidence is in my hands?”Melanie was stunned at his words but shook her head.“Impossible. You’re overthinking this. What trick could Lily have? We have the data, and the other employees are completely unfamiliar with her. I was right to do this back then. I told her

    Melanie's mind raced as Nathaniel said that, wondering if there was anything else she could do.Even though she had not thought of anything, she could only nod in response to Nathaniel's repeated urging. “Okay, I'll try my best!”“I knew you're the best!” Nathaniel said happily, “In terms of Lily, I intend to speak with her again. I want to see if she has something up her sleeve.”…Sitting by the window in the cafe, Lily cut a small piece of cake with a spoon while swiping her phone.The door swung open. Olivia entered hastily, glanced around, and walked straight over to where Lily was sitting.“Cappuccino and mille-feuille, please,” Olivia placed her order casually, set her bag down, and sighed.“Was a killer chasing after you?” Lily asked curiously, looking at her.“Lily, don't joke about that!” Lily could not help but laugh when she saw Olivia’s grumpy face.Reaching out and pinching Olivia's face, she asked, “Has Nathaniel made things difficult for you lately?”“That vil

    “Lily, what are you going to do?” Olivia turned to ask, “They’re slandering you like this. Even some of your college classmates joined in. I don't understand. They’re your classmates. Even if they are not your friends, they can't just spread nonsense like this!"“You can’t blame them. After all, I wasn't close to my classmates at that time. I’m afraid not many people know about Nathaniel and me.” Lily said lightly.She had to be objective about this matter. What's more, to be precise, she only got together with Nathaniel officially after she graduated and after Nathaniel confessed to her when she won her first award.Later, when she had the “incident,” Nathaniel never gave up on her. Maybe she felt touched and fell for him, or maybe it was something else. Lily and Nathaniel quickly warmed up their relationship. She was willing to stand on the sidelines, to be the woman behind him, just immersed in the laboratory day and night. There was nothing else in her life but him and work.At

    After meeting with Olivia, Lily initially planned to go home, but she got a phone call from Jenny. She did not have Jenny’s cell phone number and was stunned for a moment when she heard the voice before realizing it was Jenny.“The second and third tests are ready. Are you?” Jenny asked bluntly.Lily pondered for a moment and asked, “When?”“Aren't you in a hurry? Can you do it now?” Jenny’s tone was provocative.However, Lily was not afraid of provocation. She was okay with taking challenges head-on. What was terrifying was a knife from the back. After checking the time, Lily said, “Sure, I'll go to the office immediately. I'll be there in 20 minutes.”Lily asked “when” because she was afraid of scheduling conflicts with the court session next week, but she did not expect Jenny to be in such a hurry. In that case, she should just quickly get that sorted now. Whatever it was, she would face it head-on without backing down. Jenny sent her an address and told her to go to the addr

    The laboratories were generally a little farther from the city center. Firstly, they took up a large area, and it would be easier to find a suitable location in the suburbs since the price would be more affordable. Secondly, the employees should do the experiments without distractions. Furthermore, it was easier to source spices and raw materials in the suburbs.When Lily worked in MN Inc., its lab was also on the city’s outskirts. However, Nathaniel’s capital was limited, so he only rented half of an old factory building. He also used to complain when they had to purchase raw materials.Of course, Nathaniel would still be pleased with the finished product, and then he would talk about the future with Lily. Yes, after all, it was all just talk.Although the location Jenny had sent was remote, Lily could still get there by taxi. However, unlike what she expected, what awaited her was not just a factory but a whole tower. Although it looked pretty standard, it was unexpected to have s

    However, there were no hostility in Jenny’s eyes this time. It appeared to be more of an encouragement.She smiled slightly. "Why should I be afraid?" Lily, being a perfumer, knew that the industry also involved stench suppression besides creating fragrances.Not all raw materials have a pleasant aroma. Some have a foul odor and may even be repulsive. To eliminate the stench and keep the fragrance, a perfumer had to use the unique properties of the materials.Having such a pungent smell in the air, this laboratory appeared dedicated to experimenting with various stenches.Lily knew Jenny would make things difficult for her, but she did not expect Jenny to use this method. Still, it did not matter. It was no problem because Lily was interested in everything related to perfume making.Jenny was somewhat impressed by Lily's composure but said, “Don't get ahead of yourself. Do you believe all it takes is for you to get rid of the smell? That's the basics that any entry-level perfume

    Lily stayed in the laboratory the whole afternoon and barely spared time even to drink water. She was a very enthusiastic worker and would block out all external distractions once she was engrossed in her work.Lily only realized it was already dark when someone knocked on the laboratory door, urging her to leave. The task was more difficult than expected, and she miscalculated the time it would need. Jenny had given her three days, and Lily made her plans according to her habits in the old laboratory. She had not considered not being able to stay as late as she had wished.She had to leave on time. No one was allowed to stay overnight at the company except for the staff on duty. After all, there was a concern for information confidentiality. She was only permitted to be in this laboratory, for example.Lily took off her coat, headgear, and gloves before she washed her hands several times. It was already past eight, and the sky was dark. Jenny was long gone. She had informed Lily

    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
