His Secret Spoiled Wife (Lily and Alexander) novel Chapter 1768

Michelle hurried over and realized she had forgotten herself when she got near. She slowed down but soon came close and greeted Dominic courteously, “Hello, Uncle Dom.”

Then she quickly took out a tissue to dry Austin’s sweat. “You’re not well yet. What are you doing out here in the breeze, all sweaty? What if your sickness worsens?!”

“I’m all right. I’ve gotten much better!” Austin knew his mother was worried, so he smiled and took the tissue to wipe his sweat. His other hand was still holding the basket. “Uncle Dom, where should I put this?”

“Take it inside. Someone will put it away.” Dominic said as he blandly looked into the distance.

“Then you…”

Dominic turned and walked away, saying, “I’d like to be left alone. Don’t mind me.”

In other words, he wanted them to leave.

“Then we’ll go to the foyer. We shouldn’t stay too long here since it’s cold.” Austin expressed concern, then took his mother’s hand and led her away.

Michelle wanted to help him carry the basket, but he refused. A servant took the basket away shortly after Austin put it in the foyer.

Michelle pulled her son over to sit with her, then studied him up and down before nodding. “You look much better.”

Although she visited every two days, she had to study him each time before she could feel at ease.
