Chapter 2400
Chapter 2400
Lily got the idea from some sci-fi novels and movies she had read and watched before.
She came up with it at the last minute just to buy time.
She could not let Nick become the test subject.
Therefore, she planned to convince Yasmin that her idea had worked so that the old queen would give
up on the R10 experiment.
Of course, whether she could realize it was another matter.
At least Lily had gotten the queen to let Dominic leave.
However, the old man stubbornly refused to do so as Lily had expected.
Dominic said in a huff, "I'll only leave with you!"
"Come on!"
Lily let out a helpless sigh.
"You know I can't go."
"Then I'm staying.I've lived long enough, anyway.If you don't care about your life, then I don't care
about mine!"
Dominic spoke dismissively, spreading his arms.
Lily knew he was upset because he cared about her safety.
"Old man..."
Having not called him that for a long time, she sat beside him and dangled her legs like when she was
young.
She softened her tone and continued, "Do you think I want to die? Do you think I don't want to leave?
You know how hard I've been trying to leave, right?"
Dominic looked upset but said nothing.
"I have to stay, but not you."
Lily looked over her shoulder at him.
"Yasmin is willing to set you free.Why won't you seize the opportunity? I would’ve left without you if she
let me."
"You..."
Although Dominic knew she was exaggerating, he could not help but glare at her.
"Little brat!"
"You should leave as soon as possible."
Lily dropped her teasing smile and said thoughtfully, "She might change her mind, you know.You can
still try to rescue me when you're outside.
"Besides, you know the situation here.Yasmin only agreed because she's grateful to you.If she stops
being so merciful, she won't let you go so quickly.Dominic knew she was right.They had to walk on
eggshells around Yasmin because she was unpredictable.
Although Dominic’s words had impacted Yasmin, she still refused to give up.
It showed how obsessed Yasmin was with achieving immortality.
Still, Dominic disliked the idea of leaving Lily behind.
"Lily—" NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.
Lily interrupted, "I know what you're thinking, old man, but it's different now.I'm trying my best to buy
time."
After a pause, she said, "I need you to help me with something when you get out."
"Hmm?"
Dominic looked at her, puzzled.
Lily whispered something, and his eyes grew wide.
"Will it work?"
Lily nodded.
"I think so."
