Spoiled by Mr. Russell
âYouâre too arrogant,â the queen said indifferently.
Holding onto the armrest of the wheelchair, she slowly sat upright, looking as fit as can be.
Gaping, Fred caught on. âYouâve been pretending to be dying! You planned all this!â
âThatâs right. Otherwise, would you have proceeded with the experiment so soon?â The queen smiled gently.Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For All Books Updatesâ¦
Fred was terrified. âThis canât be happening!â
After all these years of careful planning and scheming, he couldnât believe the queen had uncovered his plot and prepared herself so well.
âAs I said, youâre too arrogant,â the queen said, âAs someone who has worked for me for so many years, you should know me better. Am I someone so gullible and easily manipulated? Do you think Iâve gotten senile?â
Unable to accept his defeat, Fred was overwhelmed with emotions.
Having expected this reaction, the queen said, âDo you think youâd be able to buy over my men so easily? You underestimate them and me. I wouldâve been killed a thousand times over if their loyalty was so easily swayed.â
There was a look of confidence in the queenâs gaze. Although Lily had guessed this would happen, she was still amazed at witnessing it firsthand.
Sitting in the wheelchair, the queen looked like any ordinary old lady, but her regal bearing was impressive. Lily couldnât help but admire her for this.
âThey didnât betray you and merely played along with me?â Fred asked shakily when he found his voice.
âItâs too late for you to realize this now.â The queen nodded.
âSo you allowed me to imprison you just to see what I would do?â Fred looked around him, feeling as though everything was a dream.
