Chapter 1412
However, on second thought, she figured it was not surprising to see him here. She had gathered what
she wanted in a bag and was carrying the bulky container. She thought that since she was here, she
should take as many as she could.
"What good stuff have you plundered this time?” Lifting his eyelids, Dominic asked. However, he did not
seem to mind and had no intention of checking her bag.
"The ones you don't appreciate, okay?" She aanswered and looked toward her son. "Galen, have you
been naughty and bullied Grandpa?"
As if he had not heard her, the little boy did not answer and buried his head in a heap of snacks.

He made the sound to show that he was having fun.
"No, no, he's been a well-behaving boy!" Dominic said protectively of him, "There are food and drinks
and things to play with here. Of course he's on his best behavior!"
"Really?" Doubtful, Lily curled her lips. "Then how about we come tomorrow again?"
"Well..." Dominic gave an awkward look.
'I knew it. My son is mischievous and forever restless. It's good enough if he's not wreaking havoc
around here, but to expect him to be well-behaved? The could hardly be
associated with him.'
Still, Dominic was protective of the boy. Being both scared and fond of him, the older man had
conflicting feelings.
Seeing them bantering in such a casual way, Austin was jealous.
He had never seen Dominic like this. 'It was as if he was an easygoing and slightly mischievous old
man. One that would dote on his grandchildren and joke around. However, I've never seen him behave
in this manner before. It could only mean that Dominic is much closer to Lily than me.’
"Granduncle..." Finding his voice, he looked at Lily and then at Dominic. "You two..."
"Us?” Lily looked toward Dominic and raised her brow questioningly. 'You've not told him about our
relationship, have you?’
Dominic shrugged. 'How would I dare to tell him without your permission?'
Lily nodded in approval, and Dominic grinned smugly.

'What the hell is happening now? Am I not standing here? Can’t anyone answer my question?'
"What are you asking so much for? It's not that you don't know Lily!" Dominic faked a coughing fit and
tried to hedge.
Austin thought quickly and wondered why Lily and Dominic would be so close before he became fond
of her son.
'Dominic rarely left his house over the years, and his social circle was limited. There could only be one
possibility why he knew Lily and was on such good terms with her...'
"I see!" He slapped his head as realization dawned on him. Dominic was baffled.
