Chapter 1472
The car headed toward the estate and gradually moved onto a desolate stretch of road. It was empty,
with almost no cars or people in sight.
Lily did not drive fast on such a road, but a car followed them at a moderate distance, drawing her
attention.
She had not minded it at first, but whether she turned or braked, the car remained behind them without
overtaking her or going off to a different road, seemingly keeping the same distance.
Knitting her brow, she felt something was not right and glimpsed over her shoulder at her son, seated
safely in the child safety seat with the belt tightly on.
"Galen, sit tight! Mommy is going to speed up," she said haIf-jokingly, not wanting to alarm her son.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Okay!" He nodded sharply and held onto the seat belt with one hand.
Lily looked at him and then at the car through the rearview mirror. She stepped on the gas, and the car
sped up and raced forward. The car behind did the same, tailing behind. Someone was indeed after
her.
Being alone with her son on a quiet road without any other motorists, she was somewhat nervous, not
knowing who the person was. As she drove anxiously, she made a call using the car’s Bluetooth
speakerphone.
Fortunately, someone soon answered the call, and Dominic’s lazy voice came from the other end,
"What's the matter? Do you miss me?"
"Old man, I'm bringing Galen to your place now, around 0.3 miles down Eastern Road." She did not
waste her time and got right to the point.
'You're coming again? You-" Before he could grumble about it, he heard Lily say anxiously, "Someone's
following me. There's a black car chasing after us, and I have no idea who the person is."
Hearing this, Dominic no longer wanted to make fun of her and asked seriously, "It's just you and your
son?"
'Yes."
"Wait. I'll send someone over immediately," Dominic said. "Don't hang up, okay?"
Things got hectic on the other end as the old man instructed someone to go to her, and there was the
sound of a car starting.
Lily felt calmer. If she was alone, she was confident in taking care of herself, but as her son was with
her, she could not take any risks.
"Is the car still following you?" Dominic asked.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm'Yes!" Galen answered in his innocent voice.
As the call was on loudspeaker, he could hear it. However, he sounded excited instead of scared.
Lily was surprised.
"Hey, little guy, aren't you afraid?" Dominic was happy to hear his voice and tried to tease him.
Galen said, "Nope!"
"Good boy! Don't be scared, okay? Grandpa is sending people over. If there are any bad guys, my
people will kick their a*ses!" Dominic tried to encourage him.
"Okay! Keep it up, Grandpa!"
Dominic laughed happily.
Lily was speechless.
'We're the ones who need encouragement. Not him!'
However, she was still glad. At least her son was not frightened and was taking things exceptionally
well. Taking another glance at the rearview mirror, she tensed up again.
