Chapter 1415

"Nothing.Just...trying to follow the news," Lily said blandly.

Having been disregarded by them, Austin finally found an opportunity to join in as he knew about the matter.

"You're worried about Alexander, aren't you? You don’t need to!"

Austin said, "Since he’s my granduncle’s secret apprentice, he should be able to deal with the pandemic.Even if he’s not good enough to solve it, he should have no problem keeping himself safe."

Since the duo did not deny it, Austin naturally thought they had acknowledged that he was right about Alexander.

He thought that since Alexander was Dominic’s secret apprentice and had studied herbal medicine for so long, dealing with the pandemic would not be a big problem.

However, he did not know that Lily was Dominic’s secret apprentice, not Alexander, as he had assumed.

Lily could not help but roll her eyes when she heard what Austin said.

‘He’s such a dumb*ss for thinking he’s right all the time!’ She had no interest in replying to Austin and turned to Dominic, saying, "I heard the pandemic is not as simple as the last ones.There seems to be a new type of virus."

Dominic could guess that Lily was worried about her husband.

"I saw some news, but the situation is still unclear, and our country has tightened entry requirements for travelers from that country.

"However, Alex is no ordinary person and is unlikely to get exposed to the virus.Besides, he’s a grownup and not a child.He understands the situation better than us and would know how to protect himself."

Dominic was trying to put Lily’s mind at ease but what he said was also true.

Austin felt utterly numbed.

‘Grandpa is so unfair! He’s never spoken a nice word to me, but even if Lily is the wife of his secret apprentice, he doesn’t need to be so good to her, does he?’ "Granduncle, I think the rumors sound too incredible.

A new type of virus we haven’t seen before? Now that technology and medicine are so advanced, what type of virus haven't we encountered before? "Even if we haven’t, the experts could devise a countermeasure.Burnwken is backward and slow in dealing with it, so the virus spreads quickly.We would’ve solved the problem if it had happened in our country!"

After reading some of the news and following the reports, he thought the media had blown the whole thing out of proportion and made it sound more dangerous than it was.

‘Pve studied herbal medicine for so long.I will never believe there’s any pandemic that could be so scary"

Dominic threw Austin a casual glimpse and said to Lily, "If you’re too worried, ask him to come back sooner.There are many opportunities to do business and earn money since Alex is still young.He shouldn't be risking his life."

"He’s not there to make money.There’s an accident, and he went over to take care of it."

Lily let out a soft sigh and did not wish to elaborate on what happened at the branch there.

"Do you have the latest information on the virus? I'd like to take a look."

In other words, she wanted to study it to see if the problem was severe and if it was possible to develop a cure soon.

Although that country was already researching the cure, its medical care was backward, and she felt anxious seeing how they dealt with the pandemic.

However, she could do nothing since it happened in another country.

"you want to take a look at it? What for?"

Feeling dismissed by the duo, Austin snorted despite himself.

"Why don’t you let my granduncle and me—"

"Can’t you shut the hell up?"

Dominic suddenly flared up.

"No one will treat you as a fool if you finally learn to keep quiet!"

Austin was flabbergasted.

"you want to take a look at it? What for?"
