Chapter 2408
Spoiled by Mr. Russell
âItâs just an idea.â Alexander looked toward Dominic. âI think Queen Yasmin is obsessed with the R10 experiment because she hasnât completed it. If she thinks she has, perhaps she might not be so hung up on it.â
âI think so, too.â Nodding, Dominic said thoughtfully, âIt makes sense from a psychological standpoint.â
Austin leaned into his chair and sighed in relief. âSo, here comes the crucial question: whoâs going to hypnotize her? She has her guard up against us.
Besides, itâs not easy for commoners like us to meet a queen.â
He spoke half-jokingly and spread his arms, yawning.
âMe!â Dominic suddenly said, startling Austin so much that he almost fell backward.
âUncle Dom?â Austin reseated himself and looked toward the old man. âAre you out of your mind? You just got back, for goodnessâ sake! No, you canât take such a risk.â
He shook his head vigorously. He could not let his granduncle put himself in danger again.
âWho else can go? You?â Dominic gave Austin a sidelong glance and snorted.
Austin was stumped.
âOnly I can meet her. Besides, Iâm afraid Iâm the only person who knows how to do it,â the old man spoke solemnly, trying to state a fact.
The trio could only remain silent and admit he was right. Even if they were willing to take the risk and create a chance to meet Yasmin, they would not know how to hypnotize her. Although Rhea had tried to hypnotize Mike before, he did not know how to do it.
âAre you confident?â Alexander asked. He would never let the old man take the risk if he were not.
Dominic glanced at Alexander and nodded. âI once saved her, so I think sheâll trust me. Besides, she has insomnia. She wonât suspect a thing if I tell her the hypnosis is to help her sleep.â
Since he sounded reasonable, the other two had no reason to stop him.
However, Austin still felt uneasy about it. âBut you just got out ofââ
âSo what?â Dominic interrupted. âIâm still in Hyderland, arenât I? Besides, do you have a better plan?â
Austin was stumped. Since he could not come up with one, he said through clenched teeth, âThen Iâll go with you to look after you.â
That was a compromise he was willing to make.
