Chapter 1345
'His friend? Austin feels that he's been different from the rest since he was a child and smarter than
them. He dislikes and refuses to make friends with anyone.' Dominic thought, 'Due to that, Austin had
no friends and only spoke to those who sought medicinal help from him.’
Therefore, it was the worst reason Austin could come up with to tell Dominic.
"Granduncle, I’m genuinely curious about one thing. Does Lily know how to numb someone's nerves?
Who is she? How is she so capable?" Austin decided to address his concerns.
Dominic smiled. "Capable? Don't you think women are incapable? Do you think she's great now?"
"I... It's not that I think she's great. I just think that numbing someone's nerves is not something that's
scientifically proven. If it truly exists, then it's something amazing." Austin tried to reason, but Dominic
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtknew he was almost convinced of its existence.
Was Lily incapable?
If she was incapable, Thompson would not have trusted her so much. If she were incapable, she would
not have been able to numb Austin's nerves by poking a few spots on his body. If she were incapable,
she would not have succeeded in the experiment that Austin failed to complete after trying for such a
long time.
All those occasions made him wonder if he had underestimated Lily all along.
"Not scientifically proven?" Dominic sighed, shaking his head. "There are many things in this world that
science can't explain. Everything is possible, so why be surprised? Lily’s grandfather is Wilfred Lodge,
and they have been a kickboxing family for centuries. How much do you know about kickboxing? How
would you know the things they're capable of?"
Austin could not retort and stayed silent while listening to Dominic. It was rare for Dominic to talk so
nicely to him. Usually, Dominic would mock him or ask him to leave. He seemed to be in a great mood
today.
"It's just that the kickboxing families are slowly declining due to the technological era. It’s hard to say
how much the younger generations have inherited from their elders. You would think all those cool
kickboxing moves only exist in comics and movies." Dominic shook his head, finding the loss of such
techniques pitiful.
Austin just looked at him, slightly curious. "Granduncle, how do you know so much about Lily? Do you
know her well?"
With that, Dominic returned to his senses. Coughing, he said, "Absolutely not! How many years has it
been since I last left here? How would I know her? I don't know her well at all!"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmA hint of awkwardness flashed across his face. Frowning, he asked in return without giving Austin a
chance to ask any more questions. "Why do you have so much time? Don't you need to continue with
your experiment? Are you giving up halfway? You're still immature, I see!"
Austin did not know what to say. After a moment, he said, "Granduncle, the experiment has
succeeded."
"It did?" Dominic's eyes lit up as he straightened his back to look at Austin. 'You succeeded? You
completed the experiment successfully?"
Austin had no idea why Dominic was so excited upon learning about that. However, he did not dare
boast about such a thing to Dominic, so he said honestly, "It wasn't me. It was...Lily." "Lily?" After being
stunned for a moment, Dominic slapped his thigh. "I knew it! I knew you weren’t capable of that!"
Once again, Austin was speechless.
