His secret spoiled wife (Lily and Alexander)

Chapter 2372

"Why didn't you tell me?" Ross said, "So that's why you want to continue the experiment?"

Yasmin nodded. "At first, I thought I would be dying soon. I even considered choosing a successor

among your brothers. But then, one day, Fred suddenly told me that he found a way to achieve

immortality, and we could set up a lab to research it."

Her eyes began to light up. She still remembered it was a cloudy day, and she felt depressed. Her body

also felt sore due to the weather. As the pain tormented her and the fear of death neared, Fred

appeared to tell her the good news.

She did not believe it initially, but Fred said the experiment had worked before and showed her an

ancient text with strange symbols and characters. He said experts had translated it and confirmed that

it contained a formula for immortality.

He then began to paint her a wonderful picture of what would happen if the experiment succeeded, and

she was hooked.

At that moment, the sun shone through the parting clouds, and everything suddenly seemed bright.

From that day on, Yasmin no longer felt desperate. She looked forward to the experiment and

permitted Fred to do whatever he needed to do.

She had also given him whatever financial resources he needed. She later discovered that Fred had

been conducting other experiments behind her back and did some terrible things in her name.

However, Yasmin tolerated his behavior for the experiment’s sake. Still, she felt uneasy and began to

raise her guard against him in secret, not expecting him to betray her. Moreover, his betrayal was

unforgivable.

Yasmin was willing to look the other way if Fred was after wealth or power, yet he wanted immortality of

himself. He even planned to use her as a guinea pig to test the formula.

"Mom, have you ever considered the fact that the experiment might be impossible? Throughout history

—"

Yasmin looked at him and interrupted, "Many have failed and died from experiments like this?"

Ross did not reply.

Yasmin could barely hide her yearning as she continued, "There have been many indeed, and I might

end up dead as well. However, why can't I be the first who makes it work?"

Ross knew it was pointless to persuade her. He said, "All right, even if you refuse to stop this

experiment, what about those toxins and viruses? What do they have to do with immortality?"

Yasmin straightened up, appearing indifferent. "That was Fred's doing and had nothing to do with me." Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

"Oh, yeah? You knew what he was doing and never stopped him. How could you say it had nothing to

do with you?" Ross said, agitated.
