“He wouldn’t dare!” Dominic blurted it out.
However, the look he gave Lily changed as he also felt that something was wrong.
At first, he thought angrily that Austin was being disrespectful by hanging up on him and turning off his phone. Now that he had heard Lily’s reasoning, he felt that there was more than met the eye.
“Then…” He frowned. “Why?”
“Have you called his parents and asked why he has turned off his phone for two days?” Lily asked.
Dominic shook his head vigorously. “No, no, no, I’d never ask them! I haven’t visited them for so many years. Besides, why should I inquire about this? What has it got to do with me? It should be turned off so he can’t bother me!”
“What if he had an accident? Or something happened to him? You may brush it off if you don’t know any better, but how could you live without doing anything if you knew that something might be up?” It was not that she worried too much, but many things had happened recently.
Besides, people were trying to hunt her down just now. There was something uncanny about everything that had happened, and these unrelated incidents seemed somehow linked.
“Well…” Hesitating for a moment, Dominic tried to act tough. “Why can’t I? What has it got to do with me? It’s not me who’s done anything to him.”
“If you truly can, then suit yourself. Anyway, I hope you meant what you said!” Nodding her head, Lily walked over to take Galen from him. “Galen, let’s go and pick a suitable room for you.”
