Chapter 2272
Spoiled by Mr. Russell
Austin and Ross were acting like old friends.
âI shouldâve told you Iâve known Prince Ross for a long time.
We got acquainted when I was studying abroad.â Austin said to Ross laughingly, âIâm pleasantly surprised to see you! When did you get here? You shouldâve told me you were coming.â Ross laughed heartily.
âIâm only here for a short business trip, so I didnât call you.
To think Iâd meet you here!â He gave Austin another hug.
The other three men shared a surprised look.
Nobody expected Austin to be the princeâs old pal.
âYou can say that again!â Austin took a seat beside Ross.
âHow are your headaches?â âSince you treated me two years ago, Iâve felt much better.
I do have some trouble sleeping, though.â Now that Austin was here, Ross was now much more relaxed.
Austin sighed.
âYou have so many things to worry about, and you hold yourself to high standards.
If I were you, Iâd have trouble sleeping too.â âYouâre making fun of me again, Aust!â Ross laughed.
The atmosphere became much more light-hearted.
After chatting about old times, Austin suddenly asked, âHold up! We should catch up later.
My granduncle is in trouble right now.â âYour granduncle? The reclusive miracle doctor?â Austin had told him about the old man before.
Nodding, Austin turned to Alexander, then thought of something, and returned to Ross again.
âHey, youâre the prince of Yudonia.
The duke has to listen to you, right? Ross, you have to help my granduncle!â Ross frowned.
âFred again?â âYes!â Austin nodded.
âSo you know whatâs going on? Thatâs great.
Wait, you werenât discussing Fred, were you?â The other three men nodded in unison.
âSo, whatâs the conclusion?â Since they were talking about it, Austin thought he might as well join them.
âThereâs nothing we can do for now,â Alexander said.
âNot even you?â Austin looked at Ross in disbelief.
âBut youâre the prince!â Ross spread his arms helplessly and joked, âYes, but Iâm under Fredâs control right now.â âWhat?â Austin looked bewildered.
Mike quickly filled him in on the details.
âSo Rhea hypnotized you and failed?â Scratching his head, Austin pondered and said, âJust what the hell has she been researching?â
