Lily was surprised.
‘Looks like there are people who think likewise!’
“Ahem…” Dominic coughed twice and said, “You’ve come at the right time. These two gentlemen are whom I want you to meet.”
Catching herself, Lily quickly walked over and stood beside him.
“This is the chief physician, Dr. Blanc, and Dr. Morris from the National X Department.” Dominic gestured, introducing them. “They are experienced doctors and experts in virology.”
Lily was bewildered.
‘X Department? What kind of department is that? I’ve even never heard of it! I’ve seen movies like X-Men and Project X. Is there an X Department in our country? Anyway, if there is, what have I got to do with it?’
“Please join us.” The older man, Dr. Blanc, spoke first.
They looked strange sitting together with Dominic wearing a jacket over a loose T-shirt and a pair of shorts while the other three were in hazmat suits.
“Then…” Clearing his throat, Dominic spoke first to break the ice. “Let me introduce you guys. I’ve already told you who they are, so I’ll let them tell you what their department does. This is my last apprentice whom I’m very proud of. Lily, do have a chat with these two experts.”
Lily was stunned.
‘Dominic actually revealed my identity!’
