Chapter 1478
Austin’s father was embarrassed.
"Well, Austin might be experimenting in the lab.He often turns off his phone while experimenting," he explained thoughtfully.
"What's the matter? Has Austin done anything wrong?"
Sensing that Dominic was upset, Quincy Fike asked carefully.
"Experiment? It has gone on for so long, don’t you...Anyway, he’s your son.Haven't you tried contacting him?"
Dominic could not help but mock him.
Quincy chuckled and explained, "Well, there's a reason, Uncle Dom! Austin doesn’t like us to mind his business and is quite similar
to you in sways.He's very focused on the work he’s doing.We called him before, but he either said it was inconvenient to talk
while experimenting or he had no tto be outside and would contact us when he was free.
"Both his mother and | are used to it, so we rarely call him unless there's anything urgent."
Knowing Dominic was upset, he added, "Would you like to leave a message for him or know when Austin will be back? I'll ask him
to go to your place and apologize to you."

"Apologize for what? Did | say he offended me?"
Dominic expressed his dissatisfaction.
"Forget it.It's a waste of tasking you guys! Being his parents, you two don’t give a damn about him, do you?"
"Austin is a grownup and no longer a child, Uncle Dom.We can’t interfere with his private life too much," Quincy patiently
explained.
"Okay, okay! Talking to you guys is such a waste of my breath."
Dominic hung up.
Reprimanded for no reason, Quincy looked at the cell phone and shook his head.
Then his wife dared to speak, "Was that your uncle?"
"Yes."
He nodded.
"How unusual! He's calling us to talk to Austin? Has Austin offended him?"
They were all scared of Dominic, who had such an odd temper that one could unknowingly say something that offended him.
However, as Dominic was not a bad person and the family basked in the reflected glory of him being a famous miracle doctor, they
revered him at the stime.
Only Austin managed to build a closer relationship with Dominic, having brought gifts and received his tutelage.
"No idea.It doesn’t seem like it."
Shaking his head, Quincy thought about what the old man had said and felt something was off.He looked toward his wife.
"Have you called Austin the past few days?"
She shook her head.
"No! Didn't our son say not to call him needlessly since he’s busy with an important experiment? He's on the hstretch, he
said."
"yes, he did."
Inclining his head slightly and thoughtfully, Quincy said, "How long has it been since Austin chere?"

"I have no idea." She thought about it and made a rough guess.
"About four to six days?"
"You're really on top of things, aren't you?"
Shaking his head, Quincy found Austin’s number on his phone.
"I'll give him a call."
His wife felt he was being unfair because Austin was his son too.
"Besides, our son is a grownup.How can | keep my eyes on him all the time?"
Quincy looked at his phone and disconnected the call.
"What's the matter?" she hurriedly asked.
"It's turned off!"
Looking at her, Quincy was puzzled.
"How could he be experimenting for so long?"
"Could it be a coincidence? How about we try again later?"
