โIโll never let you go!โ Fred roared.Lily clapped and walked aside to pour herself a glass of water while giving him a thumbs-up. โBravo! So be it then, tough guy. I donโt care anyway. No one can save me besides myself.โOf course, Iโm no match for you guys, and it would be best if you could set me free. If you wonโt, weโll just die together, right?โ She gulped the water, acting like she no longer cared.โWhat about your children? Donโt you care about them?โ Feeling slightly better, Fred held onto the table and staggered up.โSo what if I do? Will you let them go?โ Lily said as she shrugged helplessly.โI will!โLily was so surprised that she spilled her water.Fred knew she still cared most about her children based on her reaction. After taking a deep breath, he struggled to stand, saying, โIโll never let you go. You know how much resources weโve invested in R10. Besides, youโre irreplaceable.โLily remained quiet. She knew being irreplaceable was why she remained unharmed ev

โIโm talking about Nick Corden,โ Lily said. Puzzled, Fred frowned. โNick Corden?โโMike Cordenโs son. You guys kidnapped the boy to force Mike into doing your bidding. Donโt tell me you donโt know about it,โ Lily said bluntly.โOh, that boy!โ Looking as if he had just remembered who Nick was, he asked curiously, โWhy do you care about someone elseโs son? Or is he also yours?โLily knew what he was implying by his annoying look and tone. She did not bother to argue with him. Instead, she said, โMy babies and Nick are nothing compared to a duke like you. Itโs an excellent deal, right?โFred rested his chin in his hand and smiled. โI guess youโre right.โโSo, is that a yes?โ Lily asked. โNo!โ Fred said decisively. Lily stunned. She thought he would agree after hesitating for a moment. After all, Mike was useless to him now, and it was pointless to hold Nick hostage.โWouldnโt giving up Nick to save his own life be a good deal?โLily stressed, โThink twice. Itโs your life weโr

Fred stopped and turned around to look at Lily expectantly. Lily saw his adamant expression and thought before asking, โWhy?โFred was puzzled. โCan you tell me why? Nick is useless to you. Why do you have toโ"Before she could finish, Fred interrupted, โI have another use for him, so Iโll never set him free!โHe probably did not want to waste his time and knew she could never escape. He added, โYou and that kid canโt be part of your terms. Besides that, feel free to name anything else.โFred sighed and palmed his chest in pain. His pain was real, so he would never make a deal with her if he had not felt something within him.Lily frowned, intrigued by what he said, but decided to put it aside. Considering his attitude, she could not save Nick. She knew she could not rescue her children if she missed this opportunity.โOkay! Iโll make a deal with you,โ Lily said after taking two steps forward.โOn what terms?โ Fred asked, raising his brow. โJust release my children. You can

Lilyโs words terrified Fred, causing him to palm his stomach. โYouโre just trying to scare me!โโYouโll soon find out whether or not Iโm telling the truth,โ Lily smiled and returned to sit back down while looking at him, โSo? Do you want to make the deal? Iโm tired and need my rest.โFred glared at her, wondering if he should trust his words. Still, he could not tell if she was telling the truth. He initially thought she was bluffing about the poison, but the physician he visited proved him wrong.Fred did not know how much he could trust her this time. He slowly clutched his stomach when the pain returned. Although he looked calm, sweat dripped from his forehead.โShould I take the risk?โAfter a momentary hesitation, he said, โFine, Iโll give your children to your husband and show you the live feed. However, you must immediately give me the antidote afterward!โLily nodded. โDeal!โ โฆAlexander was at a loss when he suddenly received an anonymous letter. The letter told him t

The sky gradually darkened as the trio anxiously awaited the night. Alexander followed the letterโs instructions and arrived at Maplewood Street, waiting under the assigned tree.Meanwhile, Cameronโs men had long stationed themselves at several spots around the tree. If anyone approached Alexander, they could readily apprehend the person. With everything in place, Alexander stood there, trying to look calm despite himself.Alexander had never felt so nervous, even when he first obtained La Beaute Group. Just thinking about seeing his twins for the first time made his heart race. He felt even more uneasy, not knowing whether this was a prank or a trap.He also wondered how Lily and the children were doing.The doctor returned to the embassy to gather information for him, but he never heard back from the doctor since. Alexander suspected Fred might have discovered him. After all, Alexander had sent the doctorโs wife and children to safety.It was doubtful Fred would not notice. Unfo

The delivery felt heavy in Alexanderโs hands. He held his breath and carefully opened its lid. Lying inside were two infants wrapped in blankets. They seemed sound asleep with their eyes closed.Alexander sighed in relief when he saw them but soon grew anxious again. He put a finger under their noses to see if they were breathing and was relieved, exclaiming, โItโs them!โโOh, my God!โ Mike nearly burst into sobs. Tears welling in his eyes, he looked even more emotional than Alexander. He was thrilled for Alexander. After all, the organization had also kidnapped Nick.Mike felt like he saw Nick again.โIf Alexโs twins can return safely, so can Nicky!โAlexander nodded. โLetโs go back first.โThe delivery bag was larger than the regular one. No wonder it caught Alexanderโs attention initially. Still, the delivery man dared to bring the twins out in the open. Furthermore, he did not look like he could fight.Back at home, Alexander grew worried seeing the twins still asleep. Soon

โWho are they if theyโre not mine? Also, where did they come from, and why did the organization send them to me? If they are mineโฆโ Alexander looked at Mike and Austin. โWhatโs the organization up to?โMike responded, โDo you think the organization plans to use the babies to blackmail you?โโCould it beโฆโ Austin stopped halfway.โYes?โ Alexander raised his brows curiously.Austin shook his head. โNothing. I was just taking a wild guess.โAlexander dropped the subject but noticed Austinโs grave expression. Alexander said, โWhatever it is, we must take good care of the children now.โHe knew the other two must be tired, saying, โYou two should get some rest. Leave the babies to me.โMike disagreed, โNo, you need to handle many more things. Let me watch over them.โโWhy donโt you two go to sleep? Iโm a doctor. Let me do it,โ Austin said.โCut it out, okay? Theyโre likely my children, so I should take care of them,โ Alexander sighed, โI owe it to them.โAustin and Mike exchanged

Lily turned to look at Fred. โHow can I be sure the babies you gave my husband are mine?โFred was stunned and upset. He bolted to his feet and asked, โAre you trying to mess with me?โโNo, I just want to make sure theyโre mine instead of someone elseโs you kidnapped.โ Lily had not considered that possibility before. Still, she almost burst into tears when she saw Alexander holding the bag and carefully checking if they were still breathing.She always knew him to be calm, but she saw his finger shaking when he checked their breathing.Lily never expected to stay at the embassy for so long. She could not leave, even after giving birth. She suspected she might never get out of there.At that moment, she truly hated Fred for conducting the experiments. He was why she got separated from her family, and the world was in chaos.โWhere the hell can I find two babies of similar age?โ Fred never even considered that.โHer suspicions are driving me insane!โโIโm trying to make a deal wi

Lily tilted her head up to fight back her tears, saying, โThereโs something I find strange.โโWhat is it?โ Mike asked after comforting his son.โInstead of detaining Prince Ross, Her Majesty has sent him back to Yudonia. If so, why couldnโt we reach him?โAfter some thought, Mike answered, โThere are two possibilities. Itโs probably due to poor signals, or he doesnโt want us to contact him.โThe two shared a look, knowing what each other was wondering.โWhy canโt we contact Ross? Is he planning something?โโฆThree days later, Lily inserted the last needle into the queenโs leg and looked up at her, saying, โYou should start feeling your legs tomorrow. Still, itโll take some time before you can stand.โSuddenly, Lily chuckled.โWhy are you laughing?โ 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, โOf course, you wouldnโt.โโThatโsโฆ quite a pity,โ the queen murmured thoughtfully.โWell, thereโs a price to pay for everything. Thatโs how the world balances itself,โ Lily continued, โI canโt stop you if you must carry on with R10. Still, I wonโt witness whether or not it succeeds. I just wish the outcome isnโt something youโll regret.โLily 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 Yasminโs legs. โYour Majesty, those needlesโโThe queen waved dismissively. โItโs okay. Lily will remove them later.โEven so, Rick was wary. โYouโre being too careless, Your Majesty. What if that womanโโโShe wouldnโt,โ 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.โTell me. What do you want?โ The queen took a deep breath to calm herself. She then reminded herself that she could always say no to Lilyโs 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 donโt 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 wasnโt sure if youโd blame him, but he did rescue me once. If I don't do anything, it would be ungrateful of me," Lily said gently, "Also, didnโt 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.โThatโs it?!โ 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.โI havenโt felt my legs for over a decade. I wouldnโt mind waiting for three more days.โโAre you sure I can get up and walk in just three days?โ 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, โI canโt guarantee that youโll walk as fast as you once could. After all, you havenโt used your legs for a long time, and your muscles have atrophied. Still, youโll recover slowly.โYasmin nodded repeatedly, thinking it was good enough. She never dreamed of walking as well a

โBecause only our opinions matter." Lily thought of something and said, "Unless you choose to believe Rhea.""Iโฆ don't trust anyone." Yasminโs 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? Youโve done enough as a queen over the last few decades. Arenโt you tired of living a lonely life?โLily gently spoke as she gazed at Yasminโs back.The older woman caressed her knees with both hands and stared down at her legs, murmuring, โSightsee, huh? Iโve forgotten what thatโs like.โYasmin 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 Lilyโs suggestion.Lily asked, โWhat 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 couldnโt 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 whoโs willing to die for him. If Mike decides to take drastic action against youโ Yes, you're a queen, and you don't care much about an insignificant businessman.โHowever, 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?""Youโฆ" 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, โBring Lily over. Iโd like to see what excuses that sly woman can come up with.โ"Your Majesty?" Rick was puzzled. "You know she'll just lie to you. Why must youโ"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, โHer Majesty wants to see you.โLily 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. โYou stay.โ"But we came together!" Mike glanced over his shoulder at Lily, signaling her to persuade the man. Rick added, "The queen doesnโt 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 queenโs 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, โIf any of you go with her, they might stop or suspect you. They wonโt do that to me. Itโs natural for me to want to see and rescue my son. Iโm the best candidate because it makes sense for me to sacrifice myself for him.โAfter a short silence, Lily said, โYouโre right.โ She then looked at Alexander, who pondered before slowly raising his head and saying, โMe too.โDominic 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, โThanks, you guys!โ"Why are you thanking us? Just be careful, and donโt be rash like you promised," Aust
