Rick could only remain silent at that moment.
Yasmin then turned her wheelchair around and blandly said, “Bring Lily over. I’d like to see what excuses that sly woman can come up with.”
"Your Majesty?" Rick was puzzled. "You know she'll just lie to you. Why must you—"
Yasmin interjected, "I'd like to hear what she has to say."
Rick had no choice but to leave and do as she said.
As Lily was about to doze off, she heard noises from outside and opened her eyes. Immediately after, the door opened, and Rick appeared. He glared at her and spoke coldly, “Her Majesty wants to see you.”
Lily glanced at Rick calmly and stood up as if she had expected his appearance. On the other hand, Mike rose before her and headed out.
However, Rick stopped him as he reached the door. “You stay.”
"But we came together!" Mike glanced over his shoulder at Lily, signaling her to persuade the man.
Rick added, "The queen doesn’t wish to see you. Just stay here!"
Lily patted Mike's shoulder and said gently, "Wait for me here."
