His Secret Spoiled Wife (Lily and Alexander) novel Chapter 1478

Austin’s father was embarrassed.

“Well, Austin might be experimenting in the lab. He often turns off his phone while experimenting,” he explained thoughtfully. “What’s the matter? Has Austin done anything wrong?”

Sensing that Dominic was upset, Quincy Fike asked carefully.

“Experiment? It has gone on for so long, don’t you... Anyway, he’s your son. Haven’t you tried contacting him?” Dominic could not help but mock him.

Quincy chuckled and explained, “Well, there’s a reason, Uncle Dom! Austin doesn’t like us to mind his business and is quite similar to you in some ways. He’s very focused on the work he’s doing. We called him before, but he either said it was inconvenient to talk while experimenting or he had no time to be outside and would contact us when he was free.

“Both his mother and I are used to it, so we rarely call him unless there’s anything urgent.” Knowing Dominic was upset, he added, “Would you like to leave a message for him or know when Austin will be back? I’ll ask him to go to your place and apologize to you.”

“Apologize for what? Did I say he offended me?” Dominic expressed his dissatisfaction. “Forget it. It’s a waste of time asking you guys! Being his parents, you two don’t give a damn about him, do you?”

“Austin is a grownup and no longer a child, Uncle Dom. We can’t interfere with his private life too much,” Quincy patiently explained.

“Okay, okay! Talking to you guys is such a waste of my breath.” Dominic hung up.

Reprimanded for no reason, Quincy looked at the cell phone and shook his head. Then his wife dared to speak, “Was that your uncle?”

“Yes.” He nodded.

“How unusual! He's calling us to talk to Austin? Has Austin offended him?” They were all scared of Dominic, who had such an odd temper that one could unknowingly say something that offended him.
