“Still, it’ll be interesting!” Lisa was also interested now.

Two hands, one adult-sized and the other small, reached out toward her tummy. Lily sat there speechless. She could not just move out of their reach, after all.

At that moment, Lily’s phone rang, and it was the perfect excuse to get away from them. “I need to take this.”

Lisa and Nick both felt disappointed because they could not feel the infant.

The caller was none other than Alexander. He was curious about how Lily was doing and wanted to know if she was resting well.

"Do you have guests over?" he asked.

Ever since Lily got pregnant, Alexander made sure to strengthen the security at home. He was also very strict with who was allowed into their residence. As a result, he was aware of visitors at the house.

“Yeah, Lisa’s here, and she brought many gifts, too,” Lily replied as she glanced in Lisa’s direction.

While Lisa sat back and enjoyed the fruits laid out for her, Nick sat bolt upright, clearly still

    Ralph was startled but quickly recovered when he recalled her snuggling up to him like an innocent girl. He disregarded it and said, “Okay, fine. I know you don’t mean anything by your actions and aren’t an easy girl. Look, we’re getting married soon. Shouldn’t we get acquainted with one another before? We’ll soon be husband and wife, and when that happens, we’d naturally have intimacy between husband and wife…”While speaking, he got to his feet and moved toward her, opening his arms for a hug.Just as he was about to touch her, she lifted her foot and stepped against his chest to block him from getting closer.Heather crossed her arms and stared coldly at him. “Ralph, this is my last warning. If you come close to me again and try to do anything, I’ll kick you out!”“What’s wrong with you, Heather? Weren’t we fine before? You used to like my kisses a lot. You…”“Shut up!”She balanced herself while bending her knees and kicked Ralph forcefully. Ralph flew backward and hit the

    Margaret was downstairs eating snacks and could roughly guess Heather had rejected her son again when she saw him dejectedly coming down. She glanced upstairs and said softly, “Is Heather staying over there?”"Yeah.""So, she isn’t staying in the same room as you?""Yeah. Huh?" Ralph looked up in surprise. He frowned and looked at Margaret, "Mom, how can you make fun of me too?!""Silly boy, I’m not making fun of you. I'm helping you find a way to get closer to her." She slowly took a bite of the peach cakes before unhurriedly replying, "You said before that you have managed to capture Ms. Riggs’s heart. I honestly thought you were competent.“You have been to many romantic and debauchery places and have been in a relationship with many women before. How come you can’t even handle what you’re best at? Look at yourself. Even if you obtained the Russell family in the future, can you manage it well?" Margaret sighed.She could not help feeling a little helpless at her son's uselessn

    He felt Heather had a bizarre temperament after being around her over the past few days. One minute she was cold toward him, and the next, she was gentle before turning furious, then back into a timidly adorable girl. Ralph thought that he might develop schizophrenia if he continued being with her.Margaret knew who her son referred to and said, “Aren’t all women like that? Did you just find out today?""Still, she's too emotional. I-It’s like I’m seeing two different people!""That may be because she isn’t an ordinary person. Rumor has it that Heather is moody, and I’ve seen it too. If it weren’t for the Riggs family's background and Alexander being the head of the family instead of you, I wouldn’t have agreed to this marriage.“I can't stand such a woman entering the family as a daughter-in-law!" Margaret shook her head, lightly dusted off her hands, and took another sip from her teacup.After a moment of silence, she continued, "There’s no need for you to panic. She’s willing t

    Heather turned around and went back into the room. Then she picked up her phone and sent a message to Ralph, “Come to my room at nine tonight. I have something to tell you.”Ralph was drinking alone in boredom. He thought he had misread the message when he received it. After rubbing his eyes to ensure he had read it right, Ralph almost jumped up excitedly.‘I knew it! Women don’t always mean what they say. She said not to get close to her or enter her room earlier, but she changed her mind! Still, why did she mention the time? Is it something she can’t say now and must wait till it’s nighttime? It must also be something she can’t discuss downstairs and insists I go to her room tonight.’Ralph felt it was an invitation. How could he not understand this after being a playboy?He was excited and almost sprinted upstairs. However, he still had some sanity in him. There was no rush, as Heather had taken the initiative to invite him to her room. It was understandable that she was reserve

    “Sorry, I'm late." Alexander's voice came from behind. He hurried over, put his hands on Lily's shoulder, and kissed her softly on the cheek."Ah, cheesy!" Lisa made a show of covering her eyes at their lovey-dovey antics,"Looks like we can be full without having the actual meal," Mike said with a smile. Mike and Alexander arrived at the same time and entered together. Mike looked at his son and asked, “Are you doing well?""I’m fine." Nick nodded thoughtfully and spoke like an adult. Mike smiled with satisfaction and sat down beside his son. He then looked at Lily and said, "Long time no see, Ms. Christian.""Yeah, long time no see. It’s been a while since I last saw Nick. I’m glad you could make it. Did you come together?" Lily asked with a smile."Yes, I'm here to discuss our business and ask Mr. Russell something-"Alexander interrupted him before he could finish his sentence. He put one hand on the chair behind Mike’s back and said, "Mr. Corden came to discuss our colla

    Ralph looked at his watch and saw it was 9 p.m. on the dot. He raised his hand and knocked on the door. Uneasy, he fiddled with his shirt's collar. He planned to dress up for tonight's date, but when he was about to put on his tie, Celine, who was passing by, glanced at him and said, "It's already so late. Are you going out for a formal dinner? You dressed up so grandly!"Celine did not mean anything by her words, but her casual remarks jolted him. That's right. He was not going out to attend some grand event. Even if it was a date, this was his home, his domain. They were both single and meeting late at night in the dark. Heather must have thought about it when she invited him at this time and place. Surely she knew what would happen under such conditions and in such an environment, but she still invited him. Could it be that her hidden meaning was the same as what he thought?When Ralph considered this, he undid the tie he had just fastened around his neck, then took off the su

    Heather probably just took a shower not long ago. She was wearing a large nightrobe, and the belt around her waist revealed her slender waist. Her exposed calf was not slim but rather muscular due to her practicing kickboxing all year. The well-proportioned lines and fair skin made him drool.Heather walked toward the desk before stopping. She picked up a large towel from the chair and used it to dry her hair. It was uncomfortable feeling the water dripping from her hair after washing, but she hated using a hair dryer. She could only wipe hard with a dry towel. "Let me help you!" Ralph hurriedly put down the tray in his hand and stepped forward.However, she turned away to avoid him and said coldly, "No need."He failed to grab the towel and wanted to back off when he heard her cold voice. However, he recalled his purpose and future. He endured it again and said with a smile, "Why are you so distant with me? We’re about to get married! If you rub your hair too hard, it’ll become

    Ralph chuckled and seemed proud of himself. "You underestimated my family, Ms. Riggs. The house looks no different from ordinary houses apart from being very large, but the top security company in the country handles our security systems.“We have cameras, infrared and other mechanisms all over the place. You can rest assured as you are safe." Ralph thought of something after he finished speaking and added, "If you don't like to live here, we can move out.“We can buy a house you like. Just the two of us. What do you think?” He slid his hand from her shoulder to her collarbone and then down.Heather stopped his hand in time and smirked. “Is that so?” She continued without giving Ralph a chance to continue bragging, “Then how come I heard there was a theft in this house last night?"Ralph froze as he did not expect her to know about it, especially since his family had immediately hidden the incident as soon as it happened. Therefore, the public was none the wiser about the theft.T

    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
