Lily was surprised as she leaned back and crossed her arms. She smiled and said, "So, that's what you're here for. Don't you constantly say you're capable? Why do you care so much about the lab data?" Rhea grew annoyed, saying, "Hey, the data is the result of collective efforts, all right? You took it, and the database got destroyed afterward. Besides, you're going to die. You might as well give it to me so I can put it to good use."

She knew Lily had the document but was aware Lily would not give it to her so quickly. Since the lab data was crucial for future experiments, Rhea was eager to get them. Therefore, she tried using Lily's family to threaten her.

"I'd rather destroy it than give it to you," Lily said dryly.

"Do you think I can't succeed without the document? I just don't want our previous efforts to go to waste. Lily, you should know you can't escape from here," Rhea looked around and continued, "You know what's going to happen next.

Lily shook her head. "I'd like to see Her Majesty."

"What are you up to now?" Fred raised a brow and looked at her warily.

"Since the experiment is about me and the queen, wouldn't it be better if the two of us could communicate more?" she said matter-of-factly, "I also want you to send Dominic home."

Lily looked toward Dominic. The latter did not expect that and looked stunned. He stubbornly said, "I'm not leaving!"

Fred snorted. "Do you think I'd let him come and go as he pleases?"

Lily chuckled. "Don't forget where you are."
