Chapter 2303
As everything came too suddenly, no one else knew about it. After making all the necessary
arrangements, Fred proceeded to the queen's room.
He had stationed his trusted aides there to give her the best possible care, but her condition had
worsened over the past two days.
Initially, Fred even suspected she and Lily had conspired on this as they both experienced health
issues simultaneously.
However, upon reflection, he realized they had no reason to work together. Besides, they could not
have planned it, even if they wanted to. After all, Fred had locked them in separate areas.
He entered the room and saw the queen breathing weakly in bed. He hurried over and bent down,
warmly calling her, “Your Majesty? Your Majesty?”
The queen’s eyes remained closed despite some movements. It was unclear whether she lacked
strength or simply did not want to look at him.
Fred waved the others off and held the queen’s hand. He said softly, “It’s me, Your Majesty. I’ve come
to see you. You can hear me, right?”
The queen’s eyelids twitched but did not open. Fred then sat beside the bed and continued, “I know
you resent me due to misunderstandings, but I don’t mind. I know what I’m doing and what I want.
“I’m sure you’re the same, right, Your Majesty?” He gazed at her and said, “The experiment was your
idea. When I heard it for the first time, I knew it was something remarkable.
“All these years, I’ve been working hard to fulfill your—no, our dream! Now that we’re so close to
success, you must hang on, okay?” He squeezed her hand as if it could give her strength.
“I know you can do it. You have always accomplished what you wanted to do, and this time is no
different,” Fred lowered his voice and said, “You know what? Besides R10, there’s R20 now. There will
also be R30, R40, and many other creations.
“We’ll become increasingly advanced, and our nation will control the most cutting-edge technology in
the world. Wouldn’t you like to see it for yourself?”
The queen’s eyelids moved as if she was trying to wake up. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
Fred was thrilled, knowing his words would work because she cared about her country. “Your Majesty,
we will proceed with the R10 experiment tomorrow, okay? I believe you will pull through.
“Although the doctors said it’s not the best time, I fear you won’t be able to wait any longer.” Fred
sighed and patted the back of the queen’s hand. “Let’s take a risk, okay? I’m sure it’ll work. If it
doesn’t…”
He did not finish the sentence. As if lost in thought, he gazed ahead.
“If it doesn’t work, then what?” Suddenly, the queen spoke. Although her voice was weak, Fred could
still hear it as he was close by.
Surprised, he looked at her. “You’re awake! I knew you could pull through.”
“Fred…” The queen struggled to call his name.
