His Secret Spoiled Wife (Lily and Alexander) novel Chapter 1263

The older man chuckled since he knew his students well. "You've never cared about claims like these. Why did you mention that little brat all of a sudden? Did he do anything to upset you?"

He looked intrigued, as if he was eager to hear gossip.

“Not really,” Lily answered blandly, then suddenly widened her eyes. “He went to the research institute.”

“What?!” Dominic’s jaw dropped, and he could not wrap his head around it. “Why was he there? How could someone, who knows so little, contribute to the research? He better not make a fool of himself!”

Lily did not know how to respond to that.

“So you guys met? Does he know you’re my…”

“No,” Lily answered quickly. Sitting up, she said almost warningly, “You’d better not tell him either!”

“Yes, yes, of course!” Dominic nodded, not minding her request.

He was somewhat whimsical when it came to taking a student. He would take one if he thought the person was someone he liked and suitable. He also did not care if his students did not become a healer or wanted to keep their identities a secret.

The older man took these things relatively easily. He had saved many people and done his share of bad things over the years, so he was used to death and various strange illnesses. Moreover, some patients were thankful, and some would repay kindness with evil.

When he was young and short-tempered, he resented those who were ungrateful. However, he became more at peace with the world as he grew older.

‘Life and death are part of nature. It might not be good if I force myself to work as a healer for a few more years, and it’s best I just go with the flow.’

He saw Lily staring at his wilfordi thoughtfully and asked, “Why? You want to study it?”
