Standing at the main door of the living room, Dominic looked up at the sky, watching the sunset. However, the peaceful moment was ruined by the sound of hurried footsteps.
Although Elijah was in a hurry, he still had to support his father with one hand. He had a very anxious look on his face. Michelle was also rushing over while wearing high heels.
She greeted Dominic and hurried in without even raising her head.
"Stop!" Dominic called out in a deep voice. Michelle had no choice but to stop abruptly with a look of embarrassment on her face. "Uncle Dom, I’m anxious to see Austin. I apologize for my lack of manners!"
"You can't see him now!" After a pause, Dominic looked at the father and son in front of him. "You two can't go in either."
"Why not?!" Elijah couldn't help but ask, "Uncle Dom, you called us to pick him up. Why can't we see him now?"
"There’s a change in the situation," Dominic said slowly. "Wait a minute."
As he spoke, he clapped his hands. Then a servant came over and handed him several masks and gloves.
"This…" Holding the mask in her hand, Michelle looked up quizzically.
"I'm sure you know about the widespread plague," Dominic replied lightly.
