‘What did he say earlier? Did he say I was dirty? Which part of me was dirty? I would wipe my shoes clean every time before leaving the house! I did not even say anything about this brat wrinkling my clothes!’
Austin was suffering from tremendous shock and stood in his spot, stupefied. Seeing the older man and the little boy being friendly, he felt like an outsider.
Finally, he returned to his senses and asked in a hoarse voice, “Granduncle, this kid is…”
“What the h*ll are you guys doing?” Dominic suddenly rebuked Austin, shocking him again. “All of you can’t even take care of one little boy! You’ve taken so long to search for him in this small place! What’s the point of me hiring you guys?”
The servants just stayed silent in the face of Dominic’s rebuke.
“What are you guys still standing here for? Get back to work! Oh, right. Get the chef to prepare something the little boy likes to eat. Move fast!” Dominic nagged and was back to being the ill-tempered man he usually appeared to be.
Austin was used to this side of Dominic, but someone else was not. Galen, who was in Dominic’s arms, had his lips curled downward instantly. “Fierce…”
As he spoke, he pouted and pressed his hands on Dominic’s cheeks, trying to push the corner of his lips upward. Austin widened his eyes at the sight as if he had seen a monster of some sort.
However, Dominic did not get mad and cooperated with Galen gladly. He even softened his voice to coax the little boy. “All right, my bad. I shouldn’t have been so fierce. I’ll smile, okay? Hahaha…”
Following Dominic’s laugh, Galen chuckled happily as well. “Hahaha…”
