His Secret Spoiled Wife (Lily and Alexander) novel Chapter 1882

Dominic shut his eyes and nodded slightly in agreement with Alexander while Austin remained quiet. However, guilt-ridden for having caused all this, he was anxious to find out what it was all about.

“It’s not your fault.” Seemingly able to read his mind, Dominic raised his hand slightly and moved his fingers. “Go… fetch my silver needle.”

Austin repeatedly nodded upon hearing his granduncle’s instruction. “Right away!”

He was eager to do everything for his granduncle as long as the older man could get well.

Dominic quietly gazed after Austin as he anxiously ran out of the room like a child, then turned to Alexander.

Alexander knew the older man had something to say to him.

“I…” Dominic then raised his arm.

Alexander knowingly held the arm a bit higher and rolled up the older man’s sleeve. “I checked both your arms, and there’s nothing. The mark you showed me before has disappeared. I also checked Austin’s body; he doesn’t have it either. What the hell… was it?”

He knew it was exhausting for Dominic to speak, so he mentioned all his discoveries in one go. Dominic nodded and looked satisfied.

‘It’s good that he can read my mind.’

"Water..." he glanced at the glass beside him, and Alexander immediately understood him. Alexander got up, poured a glass of water, then fed the older man some, holding it to his lips.
