Chapter 1347
Spoiled by Mr. Russell
After thinking of how numb he felt when Lily poked at his acupuncture points, Austin felt uncomfortable.
"Nonsense!"
Dominic berated and kicked Austin.He tried hard to control himself.
"Since ancient times? What kind of bullsh*t is that? You better stop that! Are you from the Victorian era or something? Why didnât you just stay and die in the era?"
"Granduncle, how could you say that to me?"
Austin got upset.
"What? I want to kick you so badly!"
As Dominic spoke, he lifted his leg and kicked it in Austinâs direction.
Austin was not a fool, so he jumped to his feet and dodged quickly.
Dominic became dissatisfied when he failed to kick Austin.
He kicked the glass by his side before continuing to yell at Austin, "Iâm so old, yet Iâm not even half as closed-minded as you are! Wake up and look at the times now!
"Times have changed, and did you not see how successful women can be? Your mom is willing to be a housewife and care for everything at home.Fine, thatâs her choice, but other women want to be in the working world and make a career for themselves too.
"Thatâs their choice as well! How could you compare them this way? Should only men work and be successful? Tell me then! What have you achieved? Tell me!"
Before Austin could reply, Dominic continued, "Tell me something other than those few people you cured thanks to using my name."
Austin spoke in a hurry in case he would get interjected again, "Iâve saved some patientsâ lives before that!"
"Save their lives?"
Dominic scoffed.
"Go to the hospital.Forget about the doctors, but I can bet you that any nurses there wouldâve saved more lives than you ever could! What are you being so proud of?"
Austin was rendered speechless from being chastised.
After some thought, he defended himself, "I didnât mean women shouldn't work, but I just wanted to say that they should focus on what they specialize in.
Lily knows nothing about medicinal herbs, yet sheâs involved in the experiment! That's nonsense!"
"Nonsense? Then how did she succeed? Why didnât you succeed instead? If youâre that capable, why couldnât you do what she did?"
Austin did not know what to say.
"I bet you're just jealous! You look down on women, but sheâs much more capable than you! You canât beat her at anything, so you used gender, which you think being a man is far superior to her! That's the worst behavior of all!"
"Granduncle, Iâm not..." Austin panicked.
"She's just lucky! Iâm close to success too! Itâs just that I started later than she did, and I donât have all the past research data either.She didnât want to give them to me, so I..."
"Does all that past data belong to you? Why should she give them to you? Thatâs enough.Stop with all your nonsense.I donât want to hear any of that from you again! Get out of here! I donât want to hear anything from someone like you who only knows how to find faults with others! "Get the h*ll out of here!"
Dominic picked up a random item, preparing to throw it at Austin as he spoke.
Austin hurried to hide, but Dominic looked at the teapot in his hand and hesitated.He could not bear to throw that out and glared at Austin instead.
"What are you still doing here? Do you want me to get someone to throw you out?"
"Granduncle, donât be mad.I-Iâll leave now."
Austin noticed the odds were not in his favor and could only leave for now.
When Austin left, Dominic finally put down the teapot on the table.He sighed and cursed, "That punk!"
