His Secret Spoiled Wife (Lily and Alexander) novel Chapter 1866

Alexander smiled. As long as the child was safe, everything would be okay. However, he suddenly seemed to remember something and removed his glove to touch his son's forehead, neck, and cheeks.

Austin felt uneasiness wash over him when he saw that. He asked anxiously, "What's wrong?"

"He has a fever," Alexander turned and lightly answered. His voice sounded calm, but anyone could tell he was trying to suppress his emotions.

He was sick in a house that got infected with an unknown disease. Alexander could only think of the worst as his heart sank. He carried the child out sullenly.

"You…" Austin was stunned for a moment before quickly returning to his senses. He watched Alexander walk by him with the child in his arms and head downstairs.

"Are you taking the child away?" Austin chased after them and asked, "If he's…"

Initially, he wanted Alexander to pick Galen up to prevent him from getting infected. Now that the child had a fever, it might be possible that the child had already gotten infected.

He had already removed his other glove and protective suit as he did all this.

"You…" Austin was shocked by what he saw. "Have you lost your mind?!"
