Spoiled by Mr Russell (Lily Christian and Alexander) novel Chapter 2409

"Do you think I need your protection?" Dominic knocked Austin’s head and said bluntly, "More like you're going to mess things up for me."

"Hey! Uncle Dom, I—"

Dominic interrupted, "What will you do while I hypnotize the old gal? Sing her a lullaby? Do you think I can hypnotize her with you hanging around?"

Austin was stumped.

"I'm going to hypnotize her, not move furniture. I don't need you." Dominic then turned to Alexander. "Give me two days to prepare. I need to return to my estate to take care of something."

Alexander nodded. "Okay. If you need anything, just let me know."

With that, the group concluded their meeting. Although it was only two days, the wait was distressing enough. For them, each day delayed was unbearable.

Meanwhile, Rhea and Lily put their best efforts into their experiments as if competing against each other.

Yasmin had never visited the laboratory, not even once. It was as if she had forgotten about the place. All she did was bask in the sun and feel the wind on the balcony as if enjoying her retirement.

“Not long, Your Majesty,” Rick answered gently, “Only about an hour.”

"An hour, huh? I felt like I slept for a long time. That was a good nap." Feeling slightly numb, she stretched her neck and looked over her shoulder at Rick. "It’d be wonderful if I could sleep that well every day,” she said thoughtfully.

As she got old, she realized having proper sleep had become a luxury.

Rick was not good with words, unlike Fred. Hence, the former remained silent. If Fred were around, he would surely try to flatter Yasmin and tell her she was still young. However, Rick simply continued guarding her.
