Chapter 1422
However, Dominic had not interfered with matters of the outside world for a long time, and Lily did not
want to involve him. Living as a carefree recluse was nice, and he should be enjoying his life in old age.
Therefore, Lily did not say anything in the end and left with Galen in a hurry, bringing the herbs she had
collected.
Reaching home, she saw everything was as usual, but her mind was not at rest.
She had always thought their house was safe, as she and Alexander had carefully installed various
surveillance and safety devices all over the place, and her housekeepers underwent a rigorous
selection process.
Still, even a palace could not ensure it was 100% safe, let alone an ordinary home like hers.
"Galen, you're back!” Daisy, the nanny, came to welcome them warmly. She wore ordinary loungewear

Barely over 30, she was relatively young, and her skin was so well taken care of that she looked like
someone in her 20s. Even though the couple checked her background and didn't find anything
suspicious, Galen's mistake today made Lily feel uneasy.
"Dee-Dee!" Not knowing what was bothering his mother, the boy hurried over, spreading his arms.
On the way home, Lily wanted to tell her son not to mention what happened today to Daisy, but a child
his age would keep asking why, and he would let it slip eventually. She may as well not mention
anything and treat what happened as nothing unusual.
Daisy held Galen up and let out a happy smile. "Are you tired after going out with your mommy today?
Do you want to take a nice bath and drink some milk before you take a nap?"
'Yes!" Galen answered readily.
Daisy smiled at Lily and said, "Ma’am, I'll take Galen back to his room to rest then. Oh, yeah, has he
eaten anything yet? Should I prepare some food for him?”
"No, he’s full and shouldn't overeat,” Lily said blandly, and she did not detect anything unusual about
Daisy’s expression.
"Okay!" Daisy went upstairs, holding the child.
Staring after her, Lily saw her steps were light and quick, and one could tell that Daisy was a neat and
efficient person. Lily chose her because of that and because Galen liked her very much.
'However...'
Rubbing her brows, she called the butler and asked him to bring her the CCTV footage for the past two
months. She mentioned nothing except that she wanted to see how Galen was doing when he was not
home.
The butler then went to get it.
She did not ask anything because she worried she would raise Daisy's suspicion. Knowing how to

for so long, she would not harm him now if she truly harbored bad intentions.
Besides, other than what Galen had shown them, Daisy did nothing overly strange.
However, knowing that there was something wrong with her, Lily was still worried and decided to go
through the surveillance video before deciding whether to keep her as a nanny.
The more she wanted to go to Burnwken and check on Alexander, the more issues she had to resolve,
and the more stressed she became. If Alexander was still here, she could talk to him, and he would
calm her down easily.
Lily hardly slept that night. Going through the footage from nearly three months, she did not find
anything off about Daisy.
She spent her days at the designated areas feeding the boy, playing with him, telling him stories, and
even letting him ride a horse with her hands and knees on the floor. One could say that the woman was
very patient and dedicated to her job.
