NovelEnglishAlpha's Rejected Mate Returns as Queen
Chapter 626 Fake It Till She Makes It626 Fake It Till She Makes It
Lily's POV:
The burly man in the black suit was stunned when he saw me. I wasn't his enemy, but I wasn't the person who should be here.
"Good evening, Miss Lily." He nodded at me. "It's very late. You should go back to your room and rest."
I put on an impatient expression and said snappily, "Go ahead and patrol. Don't worry about what I want to do."
"I'm sorry, but this is Lady Silvermoon's order." The security guard politely and firmly blocked my way. "She thinks you shouldn't be outside for the time being. Please don't make things difficult for me. Go back to your room."
"Why should I listen to you? Who do you think you are to discipline me?" I waved my hand contemptuously. "I'm just strolling around. You don't have to care. I'll go back to sleep when I'm tired."
However, the security guard was unmoved. He only stubbornly said, "Please return to your room."
His reaction was exactly what I wanted. For him to get my mother, I decided to add fuel to the fire.

Veins bulged on the security guard's forehead. I was quite good at acting like an errant child. He should be angry, but reason told him that he couldn't punish me like he would a thief. He could only say stiffly, "I'll inform Lady Silvermoon, my lady. She'll handle this."
"Then, get her to come." I sneered in disdain. "It's best if she invites some more people. Get my grandfather, the Queen, and the Prince. Ask them to come and watch the show."
The security guard ignored me and said something to his earpiece. The person on the other side should be my mother.
Sure enough, a minute later, my mother's angry face appeared at the end of the corridor.
"Please leave for now and give us some private time," she said to the security guard, who immediately disappeared.
We were the only ones left now.
My mother looked tired, but her anger made her look energetic.
"You shouldn't leave the room," she said. "It's not good for you."
"What's wrong with that? Will you break my limbs and throw me back?"
"Lily! I told you not to talk to me like that!" she screamed.
I always knew how to provoke her, or perhaps she only had disgust and anger when facing me.
"How did you get out? I've asked the servant to guard the top floor. You couldn't have gone past her."
"It's not just a magnificent marble-paved corridor that allows people to move," I said sarcastically. "I'm a werewolf. Climbing is a piece of cake for me."
"... There's no point in arguing. Now, go back to your room. If you're bored, I'll get someone to send some magazines and game consoles over."
"That's it? Am I that easy to deal with?"
On the one hand, I wanted to buy time for Yarin, and on the other hand, I didn't want to be obedient, so I decided to act out.
"How long do you want to lock me up? If I can escape once, I can escape a second time. You can't keep an eye on me all the time."
"I'm not imprisoning you, Lily. It's just that it's dangerous outside. I don't want you to run around again-"
"Really?" I interrupted. So you're not afraid I'll publicize what you've done to me."

But halfway through, she held back and said stiffly, "I don't blame you for being insensible. Go back to your room. This is the last time I'm telling you. Don't anger me. Lily, don't think you can do whatever you want with outsiders around."
"So you're just afraid the Queen will blame you," I sneered. "Stop pretending. If there's a first, there's a second. That slap must have made you feel good, right? My dear mother, do you know that some nobles in ancient times would kill their children for fun? You have three children. It doesn't matter if you have one more or one less!"
"This is not like back then, and I am not unreasonable!" my mother was really angry. "You don't want to go back? Well, I guess I can only get someone to help you."
She called out a name loudly, and the security guard who had just disappeared appeared at the corner of the corridor.
"She is tired. Send her back to rest."
The security guard nodded and walked toward me in silence.
I didn't resist, nor did I struggle. I could even clearly calculate the time in my burning rationality.
I didn't know if Yarin had completed his task. I had to delay more to prevent him from being caught.
"What a big guy. He looks like he can fight, but I can still easily slip away from him." I looked him up and down contemptuously."You can't lock me up. I will always find a way to leave."
"Then, I will personally watch you go back to your room," my mother said. "Now, move on."
