Chapter 1444
"His grandmother moved to the mountains to meditate and clear her mind, and the Lodge family lives
too far away." Lily stared at Dominic.
"So, you’re saying I'm the only option?"
"I can bring him with me," she repeated. She did not want to seem forceful.
Dominic did not answer. Although he could not bear to reject her again, he needed to stand his ground.
This child had nothing to do with him, and it did not matter to him where she brought him.
'It’s none of my business! Why should I care whether the child lives or dies? That little b*stard
destroyed many of my things and even pulled my beard. He deserved to suffer!'
He seemed to have made up his mind as he thought of those things. He clenched his fists, attempting
to comfort himself, and spat, "Okay! You... can leave him with me!"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIt was an unexpected turn of events. Dominic could not just let Lily bring that child into danger just like
that. Although the "little devil" could be annoying whenever he acted out, he could be adorable when
being sweet.
Dominic had no idea what favor he owed the mother and son. He felt like Lily was manipulating him,
but he had no choice.
"You’re such a kind-hearted old man. Thank you so much!" Lily coaxed. "It's a blessing for Galen to live
with you. He has so much to learn from you."
"Yeah, yeah. Whatever!" Dominic shook his head and sighed before chuckling to himself.
'This woman knew what would happen. She brought all these things over and planned to leave Galen
with me before she even asked.'
"Are you really going to Burnwken?" Dominic asked after thinking about it.
"Yeah," Lily nodded and continued, "It's been ten days, and I still haven't heard from Alex. Recently, it
seems like the line has gotten cut off as well. I can't feel at ease if I don't go there to see for myself."
"What can you do if you go there? If you encounter any danger..." After a pause, Dominic continued, "I
know you know how to kickbox, but there's an ongoing war. They have artillery. You can't outrun a
bullet no matter how good your skills are."
Lily knew this, but she had been on edge ever since she did not hear from Alexander.
Dominic rubbed his forehead and sighed softly. He felt that this trip was a bit too strange. "What about
this? Stay, and I'll ask an old friend of mine to find out for you," he suggested after looking at Lily's
distressed expression.
He had known her for so long, yet this was the first time he had seen her like this. Lily had always been
very optimistic, no matter what problems she faced. Nothing could stop her.
Lily shook her head. "The Russell family is very well connected, but the communication problem comes
from their end. It won't get through.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThere's no news from the Burnwken branch. Even the headquarters are in radio silence."
At this time, she stepped in to try and control the situation. She told the company directors that
Alexander had been in touch with her. Still, the situation was so chaotic that it affected the
telecommunication towers, and he wanted her to convey this message to them on his behalf.
However, the company would be in chaos if Alexander did not reach out to them after such a long time.
By then, there would be an inevitable disturbance. It was fortunate that the Russell family's conflict
happened before this. Otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
'Alex... He faced so many storms and lived, so I’m sure he'll be fine. Yeah, he'll be alright!’
The old man shook his head disapprovingly. "You youngsters, always depending on technology. Older
people like us have our own methods. This time, I think they’ll be more useful than yours!"
"What method?" Lily was curious.
