There was silence over the phone all of a sudden.
‘Jeez! This little boy must’ve done something bad again!’
Lily resigned and let out a sigh. “Galen, can’t you be kinder a bit to grandpa?”
“I’ve been very kind!” He said immediately, feeling that he was a good boy.
“You little brat, where have you run off to? Hey, why are you holding the phone? You…” Dominic’s voice sounded from afar.
“Mommy…” Galen seemed to be talking to Dominic.
Lily then heard Dominic grumble, “What mommy? She’s busy and has no time for you! Anyway, if your mommy finds out you peed on my bed, she’ll kick your little a*ss…”
“Mommy…” Galen emphasized again, and Dominic finally caught on. “What the…”
Lily then heard Dominic’s gruff voice over the phone. “Hello?”
“Old man…” Lily addressed him.
“Have you reached Burnwken? Hmm, the signal is not bad!” Dominic said throatily, thinking that Lily had already left and was calling from there.
“No, I didn’t leave the country. I’m still in Kingsland,” Lily answered.
She soon heard the physician bellow, “What? What do you mean you didn’t leave the country? Are you playing with me? Did you leave your child with me to enjoy your freedom? Come back quickly and take the little brat away!”
