His secret spoiled wife (Lily and Alexander) novel Chapter 2302

Rhea frowned as she sat alone in a corner, not understanding Fred’s actions and the sudden notice.

...

Fred knew the decision was indeed sudden, but the queen could not hold on much longer. He knew she was in terrible shape from day one. That was why he desperately tried to find a healthy candidate to be her vessel.

Since he had to postpone the experiment due to various troubles, the queen’s organs continued to weaken despite the medical team’s efforts.

Her aging instilled a deep fear in Fred. Even though he was still in his prime, he knew he would also become old and die one day. After all, no one could escape death.

‘So what if I can’t obtain supreme power? I’ll still die one day and have nothing left.’

Fred could not accept that, so he never stopped researching R20. Nothing could make him stop, either. Nothing else mattered once R10 succeeded. If he could live forever, he would not have to care about invisibility potions or controlling others.

He knew life was limited, but not when he could achieve immortality. Then, he could have all the time in the world to research anything he wanted.

Of course, Rhea did not know his thoughts, and he would not tell her.
