Chapter 1421
Spoiled by Mr. Russell
Dominic was slack- jawed as well.He saw the child looking over at him and quickly gave him a thumbs-
up.
"Youâre amazing!"
The boy grinned and puffed out his chest after Dominic praised him.
Lily cocked her head and studied the lock.She was not good at this and could not understand the mechanism behind it.She had seen it on TV before, and there was an online urban legend that someone could open all the neighborhood doors with a single strand of instant noodle.
However, seeing her young son open the showcase lock with a thin cable from some toy was rather shocking.
"Who taught you that? She looked toward Galen, wanting to know where he had learned such a thing.
"Dee-Dee!" Galen answered thoughtfully.
"Who's Dee-Dee?"
The older man looked puzzled.
"Daisy?" Lily asked after some thought, "Aunt Daisy?"
"yes!"
Galen said, nodding sharply, "I learned it myself!"
His contradictory remarks puzzled Dominic.
"So you learned it yourself, or did Aunt Dee- Dee teach you?"
"Hmm..."
Galen knitted his brow and did not know how to organize the right words to explain something somewhat complex to him.
However, Lily was his mother, so she understood what he meant.
"Did you learn it when Aunt Dee- Dee was doing it?"
The boy nodded in excitement.
"You learned it just by looking.Thatâs something else!" Dominic said, impressed.
"Lily, your son will go far in the future"
However, Lily was not thinking about that.
"Where did you see Aunt Dee-Dee do it?"
Galen shook his head to show that he had no idea.He could not describe where it was, probably because he was too young.
Nonetheless, it was easy for Lily to guess.
Galen could still name the place if it were somewhere he was familiar with, like the playroom or bedroom.
Since he could not, it had to be a place he seldom went.
"It looks like the nanny we hired is not what she seems."
Initially puzzled by what Galen was talking about, Dominic understood it after hearing Lilyâs question and called her, "Lily?"
"Iâm fine."
Lily caught herself.
"After I settle what Iâve been busy with, I might go overseas.During that time..."
She wanted to say something but stopped herself.
"Forget it.We'll talk about it when itâs time."
"Why are you going overseas?"
Dominic caught on to the main point.
"Youâre not going to Burnwken, are you? The pandemic is raging over there, and we donât know much.Why do you want to go there? If youâre truly worried, then ask Alexander to come back!"
Lily thought for a moment and said slowly, "I think thereâs more than meets the eye about the pandemic."
Dominic wanted to say more at first, but he was stumped by what she said.
"Did you discover something???"
"No, but the mass poisoning at the factory and the pandemic suddenly starting after Alexander went over seems too coincidental to me.Also..."
She wanted to mention the experiment at the research institute.
â What is the purpose of the drugs or toxins that one could unknowingly inhale? Is it purely for curing illnesses? Iâm afraid things are not so simple!!!ââ
