His Secret Spoiled Wife (Lily and Alexander) novel Chapter 1676

However, his phone had been taken away when he was held. As he had no way to communicate with the outside world, Austin planned to go downstairs to seek help from Dominic.

When he tried to open the door, he realized it was locked from the outside.

He was surprised when he was unable to open the door. He yanked it, then twisted the handle, but the door did not budge. Austin pulled the handle with all his might, but to no avail.

Then he realized Dominic had locked him inside the room.

‘But why? Didn’t he say there was no virus in me? Why did he lock me up if there’s no virus?’

“Uncle Dom, open the door! Uncle Dom?!” He banged on the door and shouted, trying to get Dominic to come.

However, no one responded even after he shouted till his throat hurt. Either there was no one upstairs or Dominic was intentionally ignoring him.

At his wit's end, Austin turned and looked around, then finally came to the window and opened it to look downstairs.

He could not stick his head out due to a security grille outside the window, but he was able to check out the situation downstairs. The yard was empty. Usually, three or five servants would tidy up the garden, but there were none today.

“Uncle Dom? Uncle Dom,” he called out, but saw no sign of anyone. ‘How weird!’

He struggled to lean out and tried vainly to pry open the grille with his bare hands. He shouted again, “Uncle Dom! Uncle-”

He stopped halfway as someone seemed to have emerged downstairs.
