Lily expected Fabian to appear, but it was Rhea instead. Lily was shocked. However, she knew Rhea also did not expect to see her.
Rhea chuckled meaningfully and said, “Fancy seeing you here.”
Lily narrowed her eyes. “I didn’t expect you to come.”
“Why? Can't | be here?” Rhea walked over and sat on the bed. “You seem to be enjoying yourself here.”
She looked Lily up and down, saying, “Oh, you unloaded the cargo, huh?”
Upset by her choice of words, Lily said, “Why are you here?”

“To achieve my dreams, of course! Don’t worry, I'm not the one who will experiment on you,” Rhea said indifferently.
She dangled her legs and looked around. “They finished your checkup, huh? That means the final phase is about to begin. Should |
congratulate you?”
Rhea’s gloating tone dripped with sarcasm.
Lily sneered, “You should. After all, I'll make history by completing a legendary experiment. Too bad you don’t have a chance to do
something so significant to humankind.”
Rhea’s smile froze as she looked at Lily in confusion. “Aren’t you scared?”
“Why would | be scared? We are bound to die, after all. Besides, my accomplishments will be a crucial milestone in human history.
Many would do anything to take my place now.” Lily looked excited about the experiment.
“But you're going to die! Your body will live on, but you're no longer yourself without your consciousness and soul.” Ironically, Rhea
seemed more anxious, even though Lily would face this.
Lily nodded calmly. “I don’t give a shit. As | said, everyone dies sooner or later.”
“What about your kids? Based on what | know, you already have three children, right? If you die, they'll lose their mom forever!”
Rhea asked tentatively, unconvinced that Lily meant what she said.
Rhea was disappointed because she thought Lily would break down in fear. However, the latter was calm and even looked forward

‘How can she remain so calm and indifferent? She must be faking it!”
With that thought in mind, Rhea purposely mentioned Lily’s children to agitate her.
Lily raised her brow and said, “Of course, | feel bad for them.”
Before Rhea could gloat, she added, “But many children are far worse off than them. Shave neglectful parents, and others
don’t even have parents. My children are much luckier than those kids. Don’t you think so?
Rhea was surprised and at a loss for words.
