Ch. 1791..1800

Spoiled by mr. russell chapter 1791 -At eight o'clock in the morning, a black car appeared at the gate of the Russells household.

At the same time, Lily's phone rang.She glanced at the flashing caller ID, lowered her head, and hung up.

Then she picked up the things she had packed earlier, drank the remaining milk in her cup, and said to Alexander, "I'm leaving."

"If you feel like something's wrong, stop doing it and call me immediately."

Alexander did not have much to say besides this reminder.She nodded and walked toward the door.

"Lily," he called out.

Lily stopped, and Alexander quickly pulled her into his embrace.He hugged her quietly without saying a word.His embrace was warm and comforting.

Lily was startled fora moment before quickly returning to her senses.

Then she leaned into his chest and enjoyed the warmth and tranquility of this moment.

They both knew what they were about to face was cruel and dangerous.

However, they could not just back down when push came to shove.

"It's almost time," Lily said softly and patted his shoulder lightly.

Those people were impatient.

On top of that, there was no need to delay.

Alexander let her go and dropped his arm to the side before taking her hand instead.

"I'll walk you out."

She wanted to tell him it was unnecessary, but after glancing at his face, she swallowed back her words and nodded slightly.

"Okay, let's go!"

Alexander held her hand tightly, and his palm was slightly sweaty.

His face was solemn, too.

It was rare for him to be this nervous.

Lily turned her head and gently scratched his palm, trying to get him to relax.

However, Alexander did not stop or look at her.

Instead, he held her hand a little tighter.

When they arrived at the door, Mike was already waiting by the car. novelebook It was not a surprise that the two came out together.

Mike straightened up and quickly walked forward.

"I'm sorry, this is not my— tt "It's meaningless to say anything now.Let's go!"

Lily interjected.

His apology was meaningless, seeing that this was out of his control.

Mike stayed silent and glanced at Alexander hesitantly.

Then he could not help but ask, "Are we still friends?"

Alexander glanced at him with his eyebrows slightly raised but did not answer.

Mike noticed this, smiled sarcastically, and said, "My question was superfluous."

With that, he turned around and opened the back passenger door for Lily to get in.

Mike closed the door, and just as he was about to go around to the driver's seat, Alexander suddenly stopped him.

"If my wife can come back safe and sound, I will always be grateful to you."

Mike raised his head to look at Alexander, stunned as if he was unsure who Alexander was talking to.

As soon as Mike returned to his senses, he knew the true meaning behind Alexander's words.

Alexander wanted him to take care of Lily and protect her well.

Mike nodded fiercely and said, "I promise I will do my best to protect her, even if it costs me my life!"

He had done a lot of wrongs for his son’s sake.

Every day was torture in the organization.

Now, Alexander's request was nothing to him.

Alexander put his hands in his pockets and nodded slightly in response.

Mike did not overstay his welcome and quickly got into the car and drove away.

Watching the car disappear from Alexander's sight, a voice sounded from Alexander's earphones, asking uncertainty, th "Mr.Russell, are you not going to follow them?"

Alexander tilted his head slightly and answered in a flat tone, "There's no reason to."

Spoiled by mr. russell chapter 1792-"Okay!"

The voice in the earphones went silent after that.

It was indeed unnecessary for Alexander to follow Lily.

Seeing how the organization dared to pick Lily up so openly meant they had fully prepared themselves for anything.

Moreover, with their cunning nature, even hidden cameras could barely capture any movements from them, and the Russells’ networks could not find anything.

It was no longer a question of whether or not Alexander should follow them.

They were doing everything openly, with the vaccine development base being their most significant den.

Alexander straightened his body and narrowed his eyes slightly.

‘His wife has already entered deep into the tiger's den.I can’t just sit idly by since I have many things to do"

With that thought in mind, he turned around and went in.

As soon as he entered the living room, he saw his son sitting on the carpet, concentrating on building something with his Legos.

Alexander raised his eyebrows and walked over to squat beside his son.

"Mommy left again,"

Galen suddenly said while playing with his Legos.

"Yeah."

Alexander nodded.

"She'll be back soon."

"No."

Galen unceremoniously exposed his father's lies.

"Mommy won't be back for a long time!"

Alexander's eyes immediately widened in surprise.He propped his chin with one hand and tilted his head to look at his son.

"How do you know? Did Mommy tell you?"

Galen shook his head and turned to look at his father.

"Grandpa said before that Mommy has important things she needs to do.I am a little man! novelebook I must be sensible and grow up big and strong!"

Galen understood what Dominic meant then, but Galen found it hard to express his thoughts coherently.

Amused by his son's words, Alexander nodded slightly.

"That's right! You are a little man.You should be sensible!"

In the next second, he rubbed his son's head.

"But don't worry.Growing up is a process, so you can do it slowly!"

"No!"

The little guy stood before Alexander, arms akimbo as if his father's words had pinched him.

Then he angrily grumbled, "I have to grow up fast to help you and Mommy defeat the bad guys!"

Alexander was speechless to hear this.He could not help but laugh as he looked at the little boy standing before him.

"So, tell me.Who are the bad guys?"

"The poison people," the little boy replied.

Now, Alexander was even more puzzled.

"You know this because Grandpa told you?"

"Yeah!"

Galen nodded with determination.

His little face remarkably resembled his father’s.

Then Alexander asked him seriously.

"What else did Grandpa tell you?"

"That Mommy is making an antidote to save people, and the bad guys aren't as powerful as she is!" bean Galen thought momentarily as he desperately searched for words.

"Mommy is the smartest!"

"It seems like your grandfather is confident about your mother!"

Alexander held Galen's chin with one hand.

"I'll leave you to play at Grandpa's house for a few days.Is that okay?"

Spoiled by mr. russell chapter 1793 -The little guy squinted, and his expression was surprisingly similar to his father's.

"Daddy, are you leaving me too?"

"Ahem!"

Alexander cleared his throat, a little embarrassed that his son called him out like that.He clenched his fist and coughed several times to cover up his embarrassment.

"I'm not leaving you.I just..."

"Go!"

The little boy waved and lowered his head to continue building his Lego.

"I'll be good!"

Just a few simple words were enough for Alexander to swallow back his words.He looked at his son and felt a rush of emotions.novelebook He even felt a little guilty.

Recently, he had been around Galen less than he wanted to.

On top of that, the fact that Lily had to inform him about Daisy meant that he had exposed his son to potential dangers.He felt indebted to Galen.

However, he had no choice.It was best if Galen stayed with Dominic instead of his grandmother.

Galen was also a lot closer to him, too.

"Galen, Mommy and Daddy will play with you the whole day when we finish work, okay?"

Alexander raised his hand and gently rubbed the top of his son's head as he spoke.

"Okay!"

Galen's crisp voice comforted Alexander.

The boy’s father smiled, feeling more at ease.

"That hurts!"

The sound of crying and shouting startled the birds in the garden, causing them to scatter.

"Tsk, stop moving!"

Dominic frowned, holding the shiny silver needle in one hand impatiently.

Once Austin regained his physical strength, he was not as cooperative as he used to be.

He would always wiggle around whenever Dominic tried to poke him.

At this point, Dominic was on the edge of killing the young man.

"Uncle Dom, it's not that I'm moving on purpose.It just hurts! Are you sure you didn't poke me in the wrong place?"

Austin pursed his lips, feeling wronged.

The pain was unbearable, and he could not help but want to struggle.It was just a reflex.

"You bastard, are you questioning me?!"

Dominic scolded and stood up straight, staring at his grandnephew angrily.

Austin studied Dominic's face carefully.

"Uncle Dom, why would I question you? Still, it didn't hurt as much when Lily did it.Is it two different acupoints?"

Although Austin was not well-versed in acupuncture and moxibustion, he understood a few acupoints and knew his body best.He could feel that they were the same acupoints, but it just hurt more when Dominic did it.

"Who told you it's two different points? Of course, it is the same one! She just has a light hand.What's so strange about that?!"

Dominic rolled his eyes with his head held high.

Austin hesitated for a while but still could not help but say, "Uncle Dom, acupuncture isn't about strength."

The old man was silent for two seconds before he snapped, "Are you going to let me do it or not?!"

Austin did not answer.He wanted to say no, but he did not dare.

On top of that, although he had not had an attack in the past two days and his body was gradually improving, bean he was not entirely clear of the side effects.

Acupuncture was still necessary.

‘Forget it.I’m just going to bear with it!’ "Yes, do it! Of course, I'll let you do it! I trust you!"

Austin grinned before lying down again, obediently turning his back to Dominic.

The older man raised his eyebrows, held the needle, and pointed it at the acupoint before dropping it again.

"Ah!"

Austin gritted his teeth, startling his granduncle.

Spoiled by mr. russell chapter 1794-"Are you done yet? When you were drugged up, weren't the seizures more painful than this? I didn't even hear you shouting like that! Are you doing this on purpose?!"

"No, Uncle Dom.Go ahead.I won't scream anymore!"

Austin lowered his head and bit the towel, trying not to make a sound.

This pain was completely different from the pain from the previous virus attack.It was explosive, and it felt like the cells in her body were splitting apart and exploding simultaneously.

Although the pain was silent, his body felt as though it were being torn apart.

All his strength was used in the splitting of his cells, so he didn't have any energy left to scream.

However, the pain from the old man's acupuncture was continuous and slow.

The pain seeped into his bones slowly, making him break out in acold sweat.

Seeing his appearance, Dominic sighed and shook his head.

He held the needle in his hand and gently pressed the edge of the acupuncture point with his other hand a few times.

To be honest, he also knew it was painful.

The cause of the pain was not the acupuncture itself but the interaction between the medicine on the needle and its absorption into the acupoints.

However, this was inevitable.

After all, the poison in his body should be removed as soon as possible to improve the medicine's effect.

This was the only way.

At this time, a servant came in to report.

"Sir, the child is here."

"Lily is here?"

Dominic was a little surprised, wondering why she didn't call beforehand.

‘Isn't she swamped these days? How did she make time to come over? Why did she bring her son with her?’ He was so delighted that he had forgotten about the needle in his hand, poking it into Austin's flesh.

Austin did not dare to say anything and let out a muffled snort.

He was also happy with what he heard.

‘If Lily is here, does that mean she can take over? That way, it might not hurt as much"

However, what was said next disappointed him.

"No.Mr.Russell brought the boy here," the servant replied.

For Galen's sake, the servant did not stop him.

Now, the two of them were waiting in the living room.

"Him?!"

Now, Dominic was even more surprised.

‘Why didn't Lily come? Why did she send her husband and son instead? Alexander has never visited here alone before this"

There was a bad premonition in his heart as discomfort crept up his back.

With a frown, Dominic said, "Where are they?"

"In the living room."

He nodded.

"I'll be right there!"

Alexander was sitting in the living room with his son.

The little guy seemed to feel at home.

He went straight to a corner, climbed in, and started playing with his pile of toys.

Alexander wanted to stop Galen at first, but when he saw that the area was set up for the child and that novelebook Galen was moving around it skillfully, he realized that the corner was made just for him.

He raised his eyebrows, remembering what happened at the gate.

He was stopped, but as soon as the gatekeeper saw Alexander, he allowed them in without question.

This surprised Alexander.He never imagined the day when he would need his son to enter certain places.

Seeing his son roll around in the pile of toys, Alexander suddenly felt a sense of relief.

He understood why Lily left Galen here when she went to find him.

It was indeed reassuring that Galen was left here.

Just as Alexander was thinking about this, he heard footsteps from behind. bean When he turned around, he saw Dominic walking out of the backyard.

Spoiled by mr. russell chapter 1795-Dominic glanced at Alexander as if this were a greeting.

When Dominic saw the little guy in the pile of toys, the look on his face immediately changed.He ran over, calling out to Galen, "My boy, what are you doing here?"

Alexander watched helplessly as the graying old man ran over briskly and picked up his not-so-young son.

The two of them seemed very close.

Alexander was at a loss for words.

"Aren't you supposed to be home? What are you doing here? Did you miss Grandpa? You did, didn't you?!"

As Dominic spoke, he rubbed his face against Galen.

Galen giggled as Dominic's beard tickled his face.He dodged Dominic and stretched out his hand to pull Dominic's beard.

"Hey, hey, hey! You little devil! You can't pull my beard..."

Before he finished speaking, he seemed to have thought of something.

Dominic stopped abruptly and turned his head to look in Alexander's direction.

No matter how he played with Galen, Dominic had always been unscrupulous in front of Lily.

However, he hadn't adequately greeted Alexander.

Although Dominic did not fear him, Alexander was still Galen's father.

Alexander raised his eyebrows, but he wasn't bothered.

He did not expect his son to get along with this old man so well, and it seemed like Galen was enjoying his time here.

With a dry cough, the old man walked over with Galen in his arms and sat down across from Alexander.

Dominic allowed Galen to tug at his beard but lowered his head a little, so it didn't hurt so much.

"Mr.Russell, what are you doing here?" He asked solemnly, pretending to be unfamiliar.

Alexander was very polite.

"Mr.Fike, you can call me Alex.Lily is your apprentice.I should address you as Master Fike instead."

"No, don't..."

Dominic frowned in disgust.

Don't be so cheesy.Even that girl never calls me that, so you shouldn't either!novelebook Besides, I didn't even make you my apprentice.How can you address me as your master?"

Only the little boy in his arms had the right to call him "Master."

That didn't sit right either.

In that case, wouldn't that make Galen his mother's peer? Wouldn't that be a mess? However, that didn't pose a big problem either.

It wasn't wrong for Galen to continue calling Lily his mother.

Dominic found all of these quite intriguing and grinned at Galen.

The little guy did not know what was happening in Dominic's head, but when he saw his grandfather smiling, he smiled back.

Alexander did not know what to say, as these two did not take his presence seriously.

It was as if he didn't exist.

Then he cleared his throat and said, "I may have to trouble you for the next two days.He misses you very much."

Hearing this, Dominic raised his gaze and looked at him.

He snorted softly and said, "Stop beating around the bush. bean That stinky girl asked you to bring him here!"

However, Alexander shook his head.

"No.I brought him over on my own accord."

Spoiled by mr. russell chapter 1796-The old man was stunned momentarily, and his expression immediately changed.He was about to hand the little guy over when he saw Galen’s innocent and pure eyes the moment he stretched out his hands, and his heart instantly softened.

Then, Dominic retracted his arms and hugged Galen before reluctantly saying, "How dignified of you, Mr.Russell.

"Do you think that if it were you who asked, I wouldn’t be able to refuse?"

Dominic grumbled as he rubbed the little boy’s back.He was tired for such a long time.He could look past it if Lily asked him for help, but now even her husband was knocking at his door.He wasn't a full-time nanny! "Mr.Fike, you’ve misunderstood me.I didn’t mean that.It’s just that, under such a special circumstance, I couldn’t find a suitable candidate,"

Alexander begged with a troubled face, without any air of superiority.

Hearing this, Dominic laughed mockingly.

"Am I the right candidate? Then I should thank you for thinking so highly of me, Mr.Russell."

However, Alexander did not take the old man’s cynicism to heart.He had heard of the old man’s weird temper long ago.

Besides, he came over to ask for help.Therefore, he should not be arrogant about it.

"Mr.Fike, you‘re indeed the most suitable candidate.I don’t think I need to explain our current situation.I believe you know it very well.I'm worried about Galen's safety.It’s not an exaggeration to say that you're the person Lily trusts the most.She entrusted you with Galen before.I naturally trust people she trusts."

Before he finished speaking, Dominic interrupted him by raising his hand.

"All right, you don’t have to flatter me.Let’s get back to the point.What are you doing this time? Aren’t you back? Who are you looking for now?"

The last time Lily left Galen with Dominic, she was looking for Alexander.

Who were they looking for this time? After a moment of silence, Alexander did not hide the truth from Dominic.

"She went to work with the organization."

"Which organization?"

The old man was in a daze and did not react much.

"Rhea is dead, so Lily will take Rhea’s place.There are some incomplete experiments," Alexander replied in a deep voice.

"She what?!"

The old man stood up in shock, and for a moment, he forgot that he was holding a child in his arms.He was so angry that he was about to burst into flames.However, his words were stuck in his throat.

‘She, she, she..."

He held Galen in one hand, and the other shook as he pointed ahead.He was furious.

The sudden movement startled Galen as he stared at the old man with widened eyes.Then, he tightened his grip on Dominic’s beard.

"Hiss!"

Dominic grimaced in pain, but he quickly composed himself.

The old man took a deep breath and pulled back his shaking hand to lightly pat the little boy.

"Don’t be scared.I'm just playing around!"

After saying that, he sat down again.

This time, when Dominic looked at Alexander, his face was gloomy.

"What are you guys doing?"

"Mr.Fike, there’s no way for me to explain this, but please trust Lily," Alexander straightened up and said.

"Just trust her."

"what are you saying?!"

The old man frowned.

"Of course, I trust her.But how could she be allowed to do such a dangerous thing? She’s still pregnant!"

When Dominic heard that Lily went to the organization, he immediately thought of what she was doing there.

Could he naively believe that Lily was bewitched to help those bad guys? She was an apprentice he had trained.He watched her grow up.How could he not know what kind of person she was?

Spoiled by mr. russell chapter 1797-Dominic’s uproar startled Alexander.

Then he realized he had taken the older man lightly.He thought Dominic was angry at Lily for what she was doing.

It turned out that Dominic was only concerned about her safety.

After a momentary silence, Alexander sighed almost inaudibly and said, "It’s not like you don’t know how Lily is."

This one sentence almost shut Dominic up, but he was still dissatisfied.

"So, what? Aren't you like her? She is your wife! Shouldn’t you love and protect her? You weren’t here back then, but now that you are, how can you let her do such a dangerous thing? Don’t you know where she is? She’s entering the dragon’s pool and the tiger’s lair!"

‘That brat, Austin, almost lost his life there, and now his life is still on the line.Now, Lily wants to join the organization?! If I recall, she barely got out of that research institute.

Has she lost her mind?! Is Alex insane, or did they both go crazy?!’ Dominic immediately felt another rush of anger when he thought of this and threw Galen into Alexander's arms.

"Go! Take your son and leave! I’m not going to help you two! I won't drive myself insane for the two of you! Tell Lily either she takes care of the kid or..."

He wanted to say to throw the child away but could not in the face of Galen’s innocent stare.

Ultimately, Dominic waved and said, "Anyway, I’ve had enough of wiping your butts!"

However, Alexander smiled helplessly.

"Mir.Fike, Lily has already left this morning.I’m afraid it’s too late to tell her this now.Also ..."

After a pause, he looked at the old man and continued, "Although you have disconnected yourself from the outside world, I’m sure you know what’s happening.

"With the rampant and crazy nature of this organization, everyone will get infected if we don’t comply.Instead of being passively beaten like that, getting involved is better.That way, you'd still have a sense of control.Besides, I’ve told Lily that she must prioritize herself if she faces any dangers."

That was not enough to convince Dominic, but it calmed him down.

He glanced at Alexander and snorted coldly.

"Prioritize herself? That stinking girl.What’s the use of telling her that? With her temper, she won’t even care if she faces danger."

Hearing the older man’s mutters, Alexander could not help but chuckle.

"You know her well, but we should trust her.After all, I am not idly sitting by.Although the organization is powerful, the Russell family has a reputation in this country.

"I'd do anything to protect her, even sacrificing my entire family's wealth."

That was not a boast, as Alexander meant it with all his heart.

Dominic took a deep look at him and finally felt more at ease.He hummed and sat down again, holding the child.He gently stroked Galen's back, coaxing him habitually, while looking at Alexander.

"What's your plan?"

"I have arranged for people to watch over the area.Catching them is easier now that their dens are out in the open.However, I don’t know what cards they still hold, how many poisons they’ve developed, or if they’re already spreading it.Lily is there to learn about this so we can take them all down in one fell swoop."

The older man did not speak and stayed silent for a long time.

Then he sighed bitterly, saying, "What is wrong with this world?!"

He had no idea where this group of people came from.He had been inquiring about it secretly, but the forces behind this organization were surprisingly large or somewhat mysterious.

There were no clues at all.

Whenever he found a trail in a foreign country, reaching a dead- end did not take long.

Even the person he sent to investigate would get into mysterious accidents.It was conceivable that this organization was indeed more dreadful than expected, and they had to take caution in dealing with it.

Spoiled by mr. russell chapter 1798-Although it’s easier to catch the organization, having no evidence of what’s happening inside the lab would be pointless.

On top of that, Alex is right.

What if they have already begun spreading some sort of virus or worse? ‘The last plague has caused a lot of trouble, and the aftermath of it still lingers.

What if there is a more terrible virus?’ A chill ran down Dominic's spine as he sighed and kept quiet.

Even so, he still felt it was too risky for Lily to go there.

"Don't worry.I will try my best to prevent this from happening," Alexander said, comforting the old man after seeing the saddened look on his face.

Unexpectedly, Dominic looked up and glared at Alexander.

"Who cares about that?! As long as you two are safe and remember you still have children to look after, that's all that matters.You two aren't the saviors of the world!" Alexander smiled when he heard this.

These were the exact words he said to Lily as well.

In the face of danger, she must remember she wasn't alone, and her family was waiting for her back home.With that in mind, she would think before she threw herself into danger.

"Thank you, Mr.Fike." He knew this was Dominic's way of agreeing to care for Galen.

Therefore, Alexander got up to thank him and bowed to show his respect.The older man did not stand up since he was still upset.

Instead, he looked at Alexander and said, "I don't care how respectful you are.I will only take the child for half a month at most.If you don't come and pick him up two weeks later, I'll send him to the orphanage! No, I'll sell him to the boondocks!"

His words were vicious as he vented his anger and dissatisfaction.

Just as Alexander was about to say, "You won't have the heart to,"

Galen locked up at the old man and said, "Grandpa, are you going to sell me?"

Although Dominic could threaten adults like that, he could not say the same to a child, fearing the child might take it seriously.

"Grandpa," Galen continued without waiting for an answer.

"It’s wrong to sell children!"

Hearing this, the older man was dumbfounded.He nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, you're right.It is against the law to sell children.You little devil, how can I have the heart to sell you? I love you too much to do that!"

He rubbed his nose against Galen's chubby cheeks as he said this.

Galen giggled, and it dispelled all of Galen's anger.

"Okay, you can leave now! Just call me if there's anything else."

Dominic's harsh words had no effect at all now.

He looked at Alexander and said, "Also, tell that brat she can ask me for help if needed.She doesn't have to carry the world on her shoulders!"

Spoiled by mr. russell chapter 1799 -After Alexander left, Dominic played with Galen for a while before the little boy started to feel sleepy.

Dominic brought Galen into the room and watched the child sleep with a faint sigh.

Dominic had always known that Lily was talented and intelligent from the beginning.He had imparted all his knowledge to her without reservation because of that.However, she was now in danger because of how much she knew.

Dominic wondered whether or not what he did was right.

After tucking Galen in, he turned to leave, only to find a servant at the door.

"Sir, Young Master Austin asked if it’s done."

"What does he mean if it's done?" Dominic frowned.

Before the servant could answer, he immediately exclaimed in realization, "Sh *t! I forgot about him!"

With that, he ran downstairs and headed straight to the backyard.

Austin was still lying shirtless with silver needles stuck in his back.

Although his body was getting cold, he dared not get up.

‘what’s taking Uncle Dom so long? Did he forget about me? That can't be.He's halfway through with his acupuncture.But it's just Lily, so what are they talking about that takes so long?"

After thinking about it, Austin fell asleep without knowing.

When he woke up, he saw that no one was around.

He started to feel that something was wrong and yelled for a servant to check.

Austin never expected his granduncle to forget about him completely.

Guilt flashed across Dominic’s face when he saw Austin.

Still, he stubbornly refused to admit it as he coughed lightly before grumbling, "What's the hurry? Are you in a rush? I'm trying to test you! I want to see how long your body can stay like this!

"It seems like your recovery is going well, and the poison in your body is almost gone.You've stayed still for a long time and haven't had a seizure."

Austin silently listened on.

The serious look on Dominic's face was starting to make Austin doubt whether or not Dominic was covering up his mistake.

"Then, can I get up now?" Austin asked, slowly getting up.

"Wait!" Dominic quickly held him down.

"We're not done yet!"

"Huh?!"

Dominic pressed him down and continued his acupuncture solemnly.

Although they were not done yet, they were just a few steps away.Now, all Dominic had to do was put the remaining silver needles in and wait momentarily before pulling then out.

Austin lay there obediently while Dominic sat with his legs crossed, flipping through the traditional medical books.

Recently, he dug out a lot of old things to try and find a solution to these viruses.

He looked through them earnestly while Austin lay on the side, bored.He had already taken a nap and could not sleep anymore.

Only the two remained in the room, so he had no one else to talk to.

Austin smacked his lips and could not help but ask, "Uncle Dom, haven't you read all these books before? Why are you rereading them?"

"One can never stop learning," Dominic replied without lifting his eyes.

After a pause, Austin asked again, "You aren't trying to find a way to stop this virus from these ancient books, are you?"

The older man pulled his reading glasses down and frowned at Austin.

"So what if I am?"

Spoiled by mr. russell chapter 1800-Seeing that Dominic had finally turned to look at him, Austin was delighted.

"Uncle Dom, don't waste your time! These medical books are a thousand years old.No matter how good they were in the past, they can’t keep up with an ever-changing society.

"Besides, these viruses were developed abroad.They’re new and mutable.There’s no way these ancient books know how to tackle them."

He felt that what Dominic was doing was pointless.

Although Austin had studied traditional medicine, he knew that no matter how good it was, it was only invented to cure everyday illnesses.

This newly developed virus was something no one had seen before.

When he was injected with it, the virus could even manipulate his pulse.

Traditional medicine could never compete with technology from abroad.

"Who told you that?!" Dominic shot Austin a glare.

"What have you learned from me these past few years?! Dogsh*t!" Austin immediately fell quiet.

"No matter how advanced modern medicine is, it's also based on the wisdom they've accumulated throughout the years.

No matter how much it evolves, the core remains the same.

"The plague in the past was worse than this, but humankind still conquered it.Since this virus is man-made, men must also eradicate it!" Dominic explained.

Then he shut his book and tapped Austin’s head.

"Don't move!"

After being reprimanded, Austin had no choice but to lie down obediently, not daring to move anymore.However, he still mumbled, "Yes, but that was a long process.How many people died, and how many years have passed before they finally stopped the plague? "also, this group of people is researching more than one type of virus.It’ll take forever for people to..."

He did not continue his sentence.

‘The only way to overcome this is to get a hold of the detailed process and data of the virus' development.

That way, scientists can develop an antidote to target the man-made virus.

‘But how is that possible?! Even escaping from that place was harder than leaving the devil's lair.I got lucky.We have no idea where the organization's base is and how many secrets they’re hiding"

Dominic remained silent, quickly guessing what Austin wanted to say.He removed his reading glasses and sighed, thinking about how Lily was doing.

"Uncle Dom, didn't Lily come just now?"

Austin did not hear what the servant said and assumed Lily had come.He wondered if she had already left.

"It wasn't her," Dominic grumbled as soon as Lily was mentioned.

Then he leaned back into his chair and sipped his tea.

‘Huh? He sounds upset"

Austin turned to look at Dominic.

"Uncle Dom, did you and Lily fight?"

"Enough being nosy!"

Dominic raised his hand and slapped Austin's back.

Austin grunted and looked resentfully at Dominic.

‘I was just asking a simple question.Why did the old man get so riled up?’ "Uncle Dom, I'm still a patient!"

"Who said you're a patient? You're fine now! You can leave tomorrow!"

Austin was speechless.
