His Secret Spoiled Wife (Lily and Alexander) novel Chapter 1259

Flower fragrances and birds chirping filled the backyard while the sun shone brightly in the sky.

An older gentleman was lying on a bamboo rattan chair, rocking it leisurely. He held a purple teacup in his hand, putting his mouth to it and sipping from time to time. He was free at this moment.

He wore a white wife beater, while a pair of woven slippers was on his feet, but only on one side. He used the other foot to sandwich the slipper between two of his toes as he shook his leg, with the slipper looking like it could fall any minute.

No one would have imagined that this older gentleman, who appeared to be just another older man, was Dominic Fike, the legendary doctor everyone wanted to meet.

He squinted his eyes and appeared to enjoy the moment. From time to time, he would open his eyes and look to his right. That appeared to be a casual gaze, but he was always anxious.

On his right side was a vast herb field, and all the plants were his “babies.” Besides himself and the professional gardeners, he typically did not let anyone else near the field.

However, a woman in a long-sleeved shirt and long pants walked on the field. She did not look that interested in the rare herbs in there and had a frown on her face, appearing to be looking for something. Suddenly, she bent down and looked to the side to observe something.

Perhaps she found the item she was looking for because she stretched out her arm the next second toward a plant with long green leaves and tiny yellow flowers. However, before touching it, she heard the old man exclaim, “Oh, my baby!”

The older gentleman hurriedly stood up, ignoring one of his slippers that had fallen, and hopped on one foot toward Lily. “Don’t touch that! Don’t touch it!”

Upon hearing that voice, Lily stopped her hand mid-air and looked at him. “I can’t touch it?”

“You can’t! Of course not!” He even used his hands to emphasize the seriousness of the matter, looking stressed out over what had almost happened.
