Galen's face was flushed as he lay there pitifully, no longer as agile as before. The sight of him angered Austin. In his moment of
anger, he suddenly began slapping himself. "This is all my fault!"
Alexander quickly stood up. "Don't be reckless. We don't even know what's going on yet. I'll go visit Dominic."
"I'll accompany you!" Austin quickly responded. However, he immediately understood Alexander's gaze toward Galen. "I'll stay and

"Thank you." Alexander nodded, turned around, and walked toward the backyard.

Alexander made a call as he walked toward the backyard. "Leave a few men here and call off the rest. Also, ensure those who

"Be careful!" Alexander yelled and immediately rushed in to pull Dominic out.
"Hmph..." The older man, who seemed unresponsive just a moment ago, suddenly snorted, and his eyes shot open. He glanced at
