Chapter 1515
Spoiled by Mr. Russell
There was silence over the phone all of a sudden.
âJeez! This little boy mustâve done something bad again!â Lily resigned and let out a sigh.
"Galen, canât you be kinder a bit to grandpa?"
"Iâve been very kind!"
He said immediately, feeling that he was a good boy.
"you little brat, where have you run off to? Hey, why are you holding the phone? You..."
Dominicâs voice sounded from afar.
"Mommy..."
Galen seemed to be talking to Dominic.
Lily then heard Dominic grumble, "What mommy? Sheâs busy and has no time for you! Anyway, if your mommy finds out you peed on my bed, sheâl] kick your little a*ss..."
"Mommy..."
Galen emphasized again, and Dominic finally caught on.
"What the..."
Lily then heard Dominicâs gruff voice over the phone.
"Hello?"
"Old man..."
Lily addressed him.
"Have you reached Burnwken? Hmm, the signal is not bad!"
Dominic said throatily, thinking that Lily had already left and was calling from there.
"No, I didnât leave the country.Iâm still in Kingsland," Lily answered.
She soon heard the physician bellow, "What? What do you mean you didn't leave the country? Are you playing with me? Did you leave your child with me to enjoy your freedom? Come back quickly and take the little brat away!"
"Grandpa, Iâm not going," Galen said innocently.
Lily then heard Dominic trying to coax the boy in a meager voice, "No, no, Iâm just trying to scare your mommy."
Lily was dumbfounded.
âWell, thank you for trying to scare me!â
"Old man, I have something important to tell you."
She cleared her throat and said solemnly.
"What important things? Isnât your son important too?"
Dominic raised his voice.
"How come youâve become so wishy-washy? Just when the hell are you leaving? The sooner you leave, the sooner you can come back.What are you stalling for?"
"I wonât be going for the time being. Iâll let Galen stay at your place for a few days, and then after Iâm done handling my affairs, I'll pick him up."
After a pause, she said gravely, "Also, I think something could have happened to Austin."
"A few days? He canât even stay for one more day, okay? Let me tell you..."
As if having just understood her words, Dominic stopped abruptly.
"What were you saying? Who?"
"Austin.Something might have happened to him."
"That little a*shole,"
He mumbled and said, "What could happen to him? Stop trying to scare me.I donât give a s*hit about him."
He talked tough, but Lily could tell he was still somewhat worried.
"Heâs gone missing, and I feel he could still be inside the research institute even though I failed to find him.That place has stepped up its security measures and..."
Lily suddenly stopped.
"Hello? Hello? What security measures? What happened to the research institute?"
Dominic hurriedly asked, thinking there was a problem with the signal.
Lily hastily said, "Letâs leave it at that.I'll meet you later."
She hung up the phone decisively.
