Amused, Alexander quickly asked his housekeepers to prepare a meal. Dominic devoured the food as the trio watched.

"Didn't the embassy provide any food?"

"So what if they did?" Dominic took a burrito. "I'm not used to Yudonian dishes." He shook his head, seemingly disgusted.

Austin pushed a bowl of mushroom soup toward him. "Eat slowly, Uncle Dom. It's all yours."

"So why did they let you go?" Mike asked curiously.

Dominic glanced at him, fell silent for a moment, then grabbed a napkin to wipe his mouth. "That little brat found a way to get me out."

The trio was momentarily puzzled, but soon realized he referred to Lily. "But why would they agree to let you go?"

It was surprising. After all, neither Nick nor Lily had ever escaped before.

"Well, I'm not very important to them," Dominic leaned back in his chair, saying casually, "What matters is the experiment, not an old man like me."

Alexander nodded, understanding. Lily could never return unless Yasmin changed her mind.

Austin asked in frustration, "Is there no other way to stop the experiment besides changing Queen Yasmin's mind?"

"Well, there is," Mike said thoughtfully, his odd tone prompting curious glances. "If Her Majesty dies, the experiment will stop." He looked at them solemnly.

Alarmed, Austin exclaimed, "Are you talking about assassinating her? Are you out of your mind?!"

"It doesn't have to be an assassination," Mike replied. "The queen is old, isn't she? Who knows, she might get sick or have an accident." They understood his meaning.

However, it was too radical. Murdering someone would make them no better than those conducting the harmful experiments. Furthermore, assassinating the queen was no easy task.

"Actually, there might be a way to change Queen Yasmin's mind," Alexander said suddenly, surprising the others.
