His secret spoiled wife (Lily and Alexander) -
Chapter 1796
The old man was stunned momentarily, and his expression immediately changed. He was about to hand the little guy over when he saw Galen's innocent and pure eyes the moment he stretched out his hands and his heart instantly softened.
Then, Dominic retracted his arms and hugged Galen before reluctantly saying, "How dignified of you, Mr. Russell.
"Do you think that if it were you who asked, I wouldn't be able to refuse?" Dominic grumbled as he rubbed the little boy's back.
He was tired for such a long time. He could look past it if Lily asked him for help, but now even her husband was knocking at his door. He wasn't a full-time nanny!
"Mr. Fike, you've misunderstood me. I didn't mean that. It's just that, under such a special circumstance, I couldn't find a suitable candidate," Alexander begged with a troubled face, without any air of superiority Hearing this, Dominic laughed mockingly. "Am I the right candidate? Then I should thank you for thinking so highly of me, Mr. Russell."
However, Alexander did not take the old man's cynicism to heart. He had heard of the old man's weird temper long ago. Besides, he came over to ask for help. Therefore, he should not be arrogant about it. "Mr. Fike, you're indeed the most suitable candidate. I don't think I need to explain our current situation. I believe you know it very well. I'm worried about Galen's safety. It's not an exaggeration to say that you're the person Lily trusts the most. She entrusted you with Galen before. I naturally trust people she trusts."
Before he finished speaking, Dominic interrupted him by raising his hand. "All right, you don't have to flatter me. Let's get back to the point. What are you doing this time? Aren't you back? Who are you looking for now?"
The last time Lily left Galen with Dominic, she was looking for Alexander. Who were they looking for this time?
After a moment of silence, Alexander did not hide the truth from Dominic. "She went to work with the organization."
"Which organization?" The old man was in a daze and did not react much.
"Rhea is dead, so Lily will take Rhea's place. There are some incomplete experiments," Alexander replied in a deep voice.
"She what?!"
The old man stood up in shock, and for a moment, he forgot that he was holding a child in his arms. He was so angry that he was about to burst into flames.
However, his words were stuck in his throat. "She, she, she..."
He held Galen in one hand, and the other shook as he pointed ahead. He was furious.
The sudden movement startled Galen as he stared at the old man with widened eyes. Then, he tightened his grip on Dominic's beard.
"Hiss!"
Dominic grimaced in pain, but he quickly composed himself.
The old man took a deep breath and pulled back his shaking hand to lightly pat the little boy. "Don't be scared. I'm just playing around!" After saying that, he sat down again. This time, when Dominic looked at Alexander, his face was gloomy. "What are you guys doing?"
"Mr. Fike, there's no way for me to explain this, but please trust Lily," Alexander straightened up and said. "Just trust her."
"What are you saying?!" The old man frowned. "Of course, I trust her. But how could she be allowed to do such a dangerous thing? She's still pregnant!"
When Dominic heard that Lily went to the organization, he immediately thought of what she was doing there. Could he naively believe that Lily was bewitched to help those bad guys?
She was an apprentice he had trained. He watched her grow up. How could he not know what kind of person she was?
