Chapter 1263
The older man chuckled since he knew his students well. "You've never cared about claims like these.
Why did you mention that little brat all of a sudden? Did he do anything to upset you?"
He looked intrigued, as if he was eager to hear gossip.
"Not really,” Lily answered blandly, then suddenly widened her eyes. "He went to the research institute."
"What?!" Dominic's jaw dropped, and he could not wrap his head around it." Why was he there? How
could someone, who knows so little, contribute to the research? He better not make a fool of himself!"
Lily did not know how to respond to that.
"So you guys met? Does he know you’re my..."
"No," Lily answered quickly. Sitting up, she said almost warningly, "You’d better not tell him either!"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Yes, yes, of course!" Dominic nodded, not minding her request.
He was somewhat whimsical when it came to taking a student. He would take one if he thought the
person was someone he liked and suitable. He also did not care if his students did not become a
healer or wanted to keep their identities a secret.
The older man took these things relatively easily. He had saved many people and done his share of
bad things over the years, so he was used to death and various strange illnesses. Moreover, some
patients were thankful, and some would repay kindness with evil.
When he was young and short-tempered, he resented those who were ungrateful. However, he
became more at peace with the world as he grew older.
'Life and death are part of nature. It might not be good if I force myself to work as a healer for a few
more years, and it's best I just go with the flow.'
He saw Lily staring at his wilfordi thoughtfully and asked, "Why? You want to study it?"
"Yup," she answered frankly.
"Since you don't plan to continue with the project, why would you study it? It's poisonous, after all.”
Dominic said, shaking his head.
"Then why are you growing it?" Lily pointed her chin in its direction. The vine swayed conspicuously
among the plants.
"I'm not only growing it. My garden is full of exotic plants, but you only have your eye on that one!”
Dominic looked disappointed when he thought Lily could not recognize the good stuff.
"Then can I have it?" Lily asked.
"Nope!" The older man readily answered.
"Fine!" Lily got up to leave.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Hey!” Dominic grabbed her sleeve and swallowed his pride. "Why get mad all of a sudden? You're just
like your grandpa!"
"You're not giving me what I want, so what's there to talk about?"
Dominic sighed. "It's not that I don't want to give it to you, but its poison is too potent. The plant is
poisonous by nature, but as I've specially treated my soil, I’m afraid that when you take it back..."
After a pause, he added, "Besides, you have a child at home, and you're..."
He cocked his head and looked at her belly. Instead of being happy about it, he was a bit upset with
Alexander. 'Must he be so hardworking?*
He wanted to get Lily to study the new piece of land he had bought recently. As he planned to grow
various herbs with different requirements, he needed specially treat his soil in terms of moisture,
fertility, pH level, and others.
'Yet...'
