His secret spoiled wife (Lily and Alexander)
Chapter 2349

"It doesn't matter who I am. I'm just someone who wishes to chat with you." Yasmin did not want to tell Dominic who she was. Instead, she smiled and whispered to her bodyguard, telling him to leave. The man obeyed somewhat hesitantly and closed the door behind him.

Now that Yasmin and Dominic were alone, the latter said, "I know who you are."

"Oh?" The queen raised her brow and smiled, asking, "Who am I then?"

"You're a woman. From Yudonia," he said thoughtfully, pointing at her.

Yasmin laughed and said, "You're right! Anyway, I'm surprised you speak Yudonian so well. That's pretty rare for someone your age."

"What's wrong with my age? I'm still young, okay?" Dominic said, patting his chest.

"How... old are you?" Yasmin was hesitant because he sounded severe. She thought she had guessed his age wrong. She even thought Dominic was in his fifties because of how energetic he seemed. "I'm seventy-five!" Dominic declared. "I'm still young."

The queen was shocked.

'I'm five years younger than him and already feeling weak. How is he still so youthful?' Yasmin wondered.

"Why? Am I not young?" Dominic flexed his muscles. "Look how strong I am!"

Although he was no longer as muscular as he used to be, his spirited demeanor showed otherwise.

Yasmin played along. "Well, you are."

Dominic was pleased. "Right? I'm even stronger than most younguns."

The queen spoke sadly, "But even if we're in denial about getting old, we can never be young again, can we?"

She sometimes missed her youthful days. Now, she could no longer stand up and felt weaker with each passing day. It made her feel closer to death, and it terrified her.

Dominic frowned and said, "What are you talking about? I'm not in denial. Besides, why must we be young again? Our lives aren't complete unless we grow old."

Yasmin hesitated. "Complete?"

"Of course!" Dominic said firmly, "Do you know how many people have died before reaching my age? Everyone can experience youth, but not all have the chance to grow old. You should cherish it, all right?"

It was the first time anyone had said anything like that to the queen. People used to keep telling her how young and beautiful she was. However, she knew they were just trying to flatter her.
