Chapter 1797
Spoiled by Mr. Russell
Dominicâs 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, "Itâs not like you donât 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! Shouldnât you love and protect her? You werenât here back then, but now that you are, how can you let her do such a dangerous thing? Donât you know where she is? Sheâs entering the dragonâs pool and the tigerâs lair!"
âThat 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?!â 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! Iâm 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 Galenâs innocent stare.
Ultimately, Dominic waved and said, "Anyway, Iâve had enough of wiping your butts!"
However, Alexander smiled helplessly.
"Mir.Fike, Lily has already left this morning.Iâm afraid itâs 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, Iâm sure you know whatâs happening.
"With the rampant and crazy nature of this organization, everyone will get infected if we donât comply.Instead of being passively beaten like that, getting involved is better.That way, you'd still have a sense of control.Besides, Iâve 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.Whatâs the use of telling her that? With her temper, she wonât even care if she faces danger."
Hearing the older manâs 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 donât know what cards they still hold, how many poisons theyâve developed, or if theyâre 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.
