His Secret Spoiled Wife (Lily and Alexander) novel Chapter 2334

"You don't want to die, but neither does he!” Lily pointed at the operating table and said, "Have you ever considered that he's still a child? You're a mother, too, and you even have grandchildren. What if someone else treats them like this—"

"That would be their fate!" the queen sternly interrupted.

Lily was stunned.

The queen glared at Lily and continued, “The world is all about survival of the fittest. If your country isn't strong enough, I wouldn't even need to bother about the ties between our two nations.

“If Yudonia is a strong country, we wouldn't need to yield to other countries or care about what the world thinks of us, would we? If you aren't strong enough, you would have died a hundred times instead of questioning me now!"

The queen did not think it was wrong for her to make herself and her country stronger. Although she pitied those who died for not being strong enough, she did not think it mattered to the bigger picture.

Lily noticed the look in the queen’s eyes and knew it was impossible to talk sense into her. Since the old woman was stubborn, no one could do so.

"Have you considered what would happen if you rushed the experiment? It will be tough to find new test subjects when it fails." Lily could only talk about what the queen cared most about.

"Yes, you're the queen, and many of your subjects will be willing to sacrifice themselves for you, but what will happen when people find out about it before the experiment succeeds?

“You also said Yudonia isn't strong enough to ignore what other countries think. Besides, this isn't just about public opinion. Guess what will happen when everyone knows what you're up to."

Lily saw the change in the queen’s expression and knew her words had affected the old lady. “When that happens, many will fight over the formula. Do you think you’ll still achieve what you want?”

The queen began to waver at Lily’s reasonable argument. The former might not care about the lives of others, but what if people found out about the drug and took it from her? The queen had carried out her plan in secret to avoid people finding out about it.

She was too close to success to fail.

At that moment, Fred no longer joined the conversation because he had passed out from the anesthetic.

Lily continued, "Now that we've come to this point, everything is under your control. What do you have to worry about? Whether it's Fred, me, or Nick, we're all in your hands. There's no need for you to rush things now."

The queen looked at her with a frown.

Lily got up and approached Nick while secretly untying the ropes around her wrist. With her gentlest voice, she said, "As the saying goes, haste makes waste. Since everything is within your grasp, give me some time to make adjustments.

“I promise I'll increase the success rate, okay? You wish for the experiment to succeed instead of failing due to haste, don't you?"
