"Don't talk like that. It’s not your style at all," Dominic said in an upset tone. Lily smiled. "It's not your style to come here either." "I…" Dominic was stumped. "I-I'm just here to see what you're up to!" Lily laughed. Embarrassed, Dominic waved his hands. "Okay, okay. I only came to see how you were doing. You really enjoy teasing me, huh? Feeling all better now?""Yeah, I do." Lily let out a sigh, then saw the needles were yet to be removed and tried to pull them out."Stay still!" Dominic removed the needles and continued, "I was shocked to learn that you suddenly went into a coma. When I heard that your heart was so slow that it was on the verge of stopping, I knew you…" Pausing, he glanced at her and did not finish his sentence. "How could you do this to yourself?" he told her off as he shook his head. "You know why I did it."He snapped, "I don't. "You're not Mother Teresa. You shouldn't have gotten involved in the first place!"Lily could not see his face as

In the evening, Ross sent a location to Rhea. Of course, the IP address had been changed according to his itinerary. A while later, Rhea video-called him. Fortunately, Alexander had long prepared the set, and Ross only had to answer the call inside. When the call connected, Rhea scrutinized his background. "The woods behind you look dense, Your Highness. Have you reached the outskirts?""It is a rather remote location. To avoid attention, I can't take the main roads," Ross replied matter-of-factly, "Is everything okay at the embassy? Can Fred cope?" "Of course. We're more concerned about you," Rhea said. Ross shook his head. "I'm fine. I'm just doing what I should be doing for my mother." "That's good to hear. How's the trip so far? Have you encountered any problems?" she asked, gazing searchingly at his surroundings. Ross answered, "Everything’s fine. Don't worry." "Good." Rhea chuckled. "Can you move to another spot, Your Highness? There's some glare, and I can't see you

Seeing this, Rhea added, "Fred has more questions for you, and I think you understand that he's doing this out of goodwill. Please answer his questions, all right?" She flicked the wine bottle again.Ross frowned as if hesitant, then nodded. "Okay." Rhea gave Fred a look, then moved behind him. Leaning in, Fred looked toward Ross and cleared his throat. "Your Highness, have you gotten any leads in tracking down the queen?" Ross shook his head. "No. But I think it's because I haven't gone far enough. You said my mom went to places like West Virho? It’ll take me several more days to get there."Fred nodded, thinking that this made sense. "Her Majesty did say so, but I’m not so sure either. Anyway, it's not good that you and Her Majesty are both away, Your Highness. Someone should take charge of this place.""You're around, aren't you?" Ross looked puzzled. As this was the answer he wanted, Fred grinned. "Well, I'm just the chief minister. As you know, many in the country are a

Rhea noticed Fred’s eagerness and asked, “What if it fails?”Based on past data, she had little confidence his experiment would work. However, she dared not say it aloud because Fred did not want to hear such a thing. Still, she selfishly wished the experiment would fail. Fred would be happy if it worked, but it would do Rhea no good. If it failed, he had to start over again with her help. "Work hard, okay? I'll ensure to reward you well." Patting Rhea's shoulder, he said, "Keep a close watch on Prince Ross and Mike Corden." After a pause, he thought of something and asked, "Has Mike tried to look for his son again?" "Yes, he even found out that his son is in the Royal Palace of Yudonia, but there's nothing he can do about it," Rhea answered truthfully. "He wouldn't dare!" Fred snorted and said, "Since he's under your control now, tell him his son is dead, so he’ll give up." Rhea was stunned. "Why? Is there a problem?" Fred narrowed his eyes and asked in a threatening to

After hanging up, Mike quickly went to knock on Alexander and Austin’s bedroom doors, telling them to come out. Mike said, “She wants the invisibility potion formula.”The other two exchanged looks with Mike and said in unison, “Fat chance.”Alexander nodded and said, “She’s pretty greedy, huh?”"What should we do?" Mike asked. "There's no invisibility potion to begin with. We can't give Rhea a fake formula, can we?" Austin shrugged. However, Alexander said thoughtfully, "Perhaps… we can." Austin was baffled. "Well, can you tell if a formula is fake right away?" Alexander asked. Austin shook his head. "No, I can only tell after I experiment with it." He caught on to Alexander's intentions but still did not think it would work. "Even so, it wouldn't work. I'll find out the formula is fake in the end." "But you’ll have to experiment with it first," Alexander continued, "Besides, she would assume it's based on their research. There's no guarantee it would work." Austin
