The others remained quiet. Everyone, including Ross, knew what was going on. It was just that Ross was reluctant to face the truth.
"No, | don't believe it!" the prince said grimly, one hand propping against the table. Although politicians often operated in grey
areas, he knew what those experiments were all about. Many died in Yudonia during the pandemic, and even those who received a
cure still suffered from it.
Having visited those patients around the country, he felt terrible for them. When Ross found out that the virus might be related to
Fred and even spread from Yudonia, he was both shocked and angry. He then started to think about ways to deal with the duke.
Yet, they now told him that his mother was the mastermind.
All this while, he had looked up to her. Although she hadn't spent much twith him, he knew she was busy running the country.
He understood how difficult the job was and how great a person she was.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAs Ross was still a prince even at his age, slaughed at him behind his back, and scriticized Queen Yasmin for not giving
up her throne. However, he could understand the decision.
He knew his mother was the most suitable ruler for the country, and he didn't mind who was in power as long as it was the best
choice for Yudonia. Ross was okay with continuing his duties as a prince.
Therefore, it was hard to believe that his kind and gentle mother, who was even friendly to the servants, would be involved in such
evil creations.
"Well, perhaps things aren't what we thought," Austin said, trying to console Ross.
Ross nodded repeatedly. "I'm sure they aren't! I'll go back to the embassy now to find out what really happened."
He was desperate to know the truth.
"Ross..." Austin tried to stop him, but the prince rushed away.
"Austin," Alexander said, "Let him. You won't be able to stop him."
"But it's clear that Queen Yasmin is the one behind the whole thing. If he confronts her—"
Alexander interrupted, "Con, she's not Fred, okay?"
Austin was puzzled.
"Even if the queen is behind this, she won't do anything to Prince Ross," Alexander explained, "After all, he's her son."
"It's hard to say." Mike shook his head. "Not all families are close. Look at how Rhea treats her parents. Besides, Yasmin is a queen,
not an ordinary person.
"She has held onto the throne for decades and even carried out the experiment. She wants to live and rule her country forever. |
doubt she cares about her son."
Mike shook his head and sighed.

Alexander and Austin knew Mike had a point, but it was inappropriate to say so in Ross's presence.
