Chapter 1481
"All right, old man, stop nagging! I have to get going and rush home." Thinking that Thompson would
be waiting for her, she wanted to hurry back and seek answers to her questions.
She felt that what Thompson wanted to talk about could be related to Austin and perhaps even the
laboratory’s secret. Thinking so, she quickened her pace.
"No, the key, the car key!" Swinging something in his hand, Dominic chased after her. "Your car is in
such a terrible state. How are you going to drive it? Take one of the cars here."

what you're doing. Remember that no matter how tough you are, you're still a girl and pregnant, and
your husband and son can’t live without you. Just don't expect me to raise your child, okay?"
He tried to act tough but failed to hide his concern for her.

"Okay, I got it.” After a pause, Lily hurriedly said, "Wait. Do you know which hospital he's been sent to?”
