Chapter 1476
Dominic sounded as if something had happened, and Lily was puzzled.
"Austin? What's wrong with him?"
"There's nothing wrong with him.
He's doing great! He also dared to hang up onand has even turned his phone off for two days!"
Dominic got upset and puffed his cheeks.
Galen thought he looked funny and started to pinch and poke his puffy cheeks.
"Hey, hey, you little brat! Don’t be so heartless like your mommy, okay? You've grown bolder after just surviving an ordeal, have
you —hey, hey, not my beard!"
Dominic whined as he played around with the boy.
However, Lily had a vague feeling that something was not right.
Having spent staround Austin, she knew what kind of a person he was even though she was unfamiliar with him.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt‘Austin might behave like that to others, but he's subservient to Dominic.
Did he hang up on the old man? That's so unlike Austin.
Besides, he even turned off his phone for two days."
"Old man, why would Austin hang up on you? Were you fighting?"
Lily asked after sthought.
"Hell no! He hasn't returned after leaving in a fit the last time.
Then | thought something was wrong in the lab and wanted to tell him not to be a pawn in someone else's game.
He said nothing when | called him and even hung up on me! Don’t you think he’s being disrespectful?"
Dominic got angrier as he spoke and wanted to give Austin a beating.
"He didn’t say a word? What did you say to him?"
The more Lily heard, the more she felt something fishy was going on.
"Nothing, of course!"
Dominic said indignantly.
"Why should | speak first? | had to wait until he toldhe was sorry! Who knew he wouldn't make good use of the opportunity and
hung up oninstead!"
Lily was at a loss for words.
‘The old man wanted him to apologize first instead? Anyway, there's something odd about the whole thing.
Austin would never resent Dominic for what happened last tor wait for him to apologize first."
After so many years, Austin should know what Dominic was like.
If Austin were so petty, he would not have visited his granduncle and brought him gifts repeatedly despite getting scolded.
"So, you two didn’t say anything, and he hung up the call?"
Lily thought about it carefully and asked, "Don’t you think something isn’t right?"
Pouting playfully at Galen, Dominic glanced at Lily.
"What are you talking about? That a*shole has bechigh and mighty; that’s what it is!"

Lily knew Dominic was still upset and did not refute him directly.
Think about it.
You watched him grow up, didn’t you?"
"Hell no,"
He immediately denied it.
"Even if you didn’t, Austin has hung around you for so many years, and you should know what he’s like,"
Lily added.
"1 don’t!"
Dominic behaved like a stubborn child and only kept retorting.
Lily started losing her patience, so she glared at the old man and said, "Can you stop talking and don’t interrupt me?"
Dominic pouted resentfully but kept quiet anyway.
With that, Lily continued, "Is Austin someone who would stop coming here just because of what you said? Would someone like him
bear to give up the title of the miracle doctor's apprentice? Even if he is furious and decides to cut his ties with you, wouldn't he
scold you first to vent his frustration since you've been yelling at him for so many years?"
