Spoiled by Mr. Russell novel Chapter 2355

"Won't you feel guilty? You could save so many more people or do so much more. You could even achieve the next medical breakthrough. If you live long enough, you'll be able to explore the mysteries of the world," Yasmin asked in bafflement.

She wanted to live longer to see and learn more about the world.

Dominic sighed and shook his head. "What for? Isn't the world depressing?"

After taking a sip of water, he said, "Have we not seen enough of the horror of the world at our age? Besides, how long are we supposed to live? Are we going to watch people around us die one by one while we remain old?"

Shaking his head, he added, "I don't want to become an old monster.”

"Well, if there's a drug that can give you and your loved ones immortality, and you can live together forever—"

Dominic burst out laughing as if he had heard something funny. "Are you nuts? Have you actually imagined what that would be like? You, me, our family, and friends live forever?"

He was beside himself in tears. "You've got to be kidding me, right? How many people can the world accommodate? If we don't die, we’ll continue to marry and have kids, who will then have their own children, grandchildren, and so on. Just counting one family alone would be too many humans for this planet to handle.”

She quietly wheeled herself toward the door and stopped there. She then turned around and asked gently, "You do know who I am, right?"

"Yes, I do." Dominic nodded. "You're someone who has lost their way."

She smiled at him. "Well, whatever it is, thank you."

"Thank me? What for?" He laughed. "I should be the one thanking you for chatting with me for so long. I was so terribly bored."
