Spoiled by mr. russell chapter 1768-Michelle hurried over and realized she had forgotten herself when
she got near.She slowed down but soon came close and greeted Dominic courteously, “Hello, Uncle
Dom.”
Then she quickly took out a tissue to dry Austin’s sweat.
“You’re not well yet.What are you doing out here in the breeze, all sweaty? What if your sickness
worsens?!”
“I’m all right.I’ve gotten much better!”
Austin knew his mother was worried, so he smiled and took the tissue to wipe his sweat.His other hand
was still holding the basket.
“Uncle Dom, where should I put this?”

Dominic said as he blandly looked into the distance.
“Then you…”
Dominic turned and walked away, saying, “I’d like to be left alone.Don’t mind me.”
In other words, he wanted them to leave.
“Then we’ll go to the foyer.We shouldn’t stay too long here since it’s cold.”
Austin expressed concern, then took his mother’s hand and led her away.
Michelle wanted to help him carry the basket, but he refused.
A servant took the basket away shortly after Austin put it in the foyer.
Michelle pulled her son over to sit with her, then studied him up and down before nodding.
“You look much better.”
Although she visited every two days, she had to study him each time before she could feel at ease.
“I feel much better, and my symptoms haven’t recurred.Stop worrying, okay?”
Austin could understand she was concerned, but being overly protective could sometimes be
overwhelming.
Austin’s parents had never been demanding of him since he became an adult.He had grown
accustomed to living alone. He knew that what had happened had truly frightened his parents.
“Mom, I’d like to ask…”
Before he could finish, Michelle said, “Son, I have something to tell you.”
The mother-son duo paused simultaneously, but Michelle continued, “What would you like to know?”
“It’s nothing much.What is it that you want to tell me?”
Austin was not in a hurry.

better.”
“Migrate? Why?”
Austin did not expect that and was astonished.
“Your dad and I thought about it a few years ago, but we thought you have a better career here since
you’ve learned herbal medicine.We wanted to respect your decision and were proud you had made
something of yourself.
“However, we didn’t expect what you’ve learned to put you through such an ordeal.If we knew, we
would have migrated in the first place, and none of this would have happened!”
She felt emotional and blamed herself, thinking her son could have avoided such calamity if they had
migrated sooner.
“Mom, how could you say that? It has nothing to do with what I’ve learned.” Austin was baffled.
