Lily did not get to spend much time with the queen because Fred returned. He no longer showed respect to the queen and strode into the outhouse. After glancing around, he turned and headed toward the bedroom.
“Fred?” The queen noticed him ignoring her and shouted, “Stop right there!”
However, Fred continued to ignore her and pushed the bedroom door open.
“Fred…”
“Just as I thought,” Fred sneered. He saw Lily sitting on a chair and went to pull her up. However, he caught himself and drew his hand back. “Do you think you can escape by hiding here?”
“Escape? Why would I do that?” Lily raised her brow.
“You better be telling the truth! There’s no escape for you, got it?” Fred spoke coldly. “Follow me!”
“Why should I?” Lily asked, still looking as indifferent as before.
“Don’t you want your children anymore? Don’t you care about their lives?” Fred threatened.
Lily shook her head. “Well, don’t you care about your life? Don’t forget that you’ve taken—"
“Your poison?” Fred chuckled, “I don’t give a shit! I know it’s not poison. You expect me to believe you could make one under my very nose? Please!”
“Well, I tried to warn you.” Lily sighed. “You’re running out of time anyway.”
