Dominic glanced at Alexander as if this were a greeting. When Dominic saw the little guy in the pile of toys, the look on his face
immediately changed.
He ran over, calling out to Galen, "My boy, what are you doing here?"
Alexander watched helplessly as the graying old man ran over briskly and picked up his not-so-young son. The two of them
seemed very close.
Alexander was at a loss for words.
"Aren't you supposed to be home? What are you doing here? Did you miss Grandpa? You did, didn't you?!" As Dominic spoke, he
rubbed his face against Galen.

Galen giggled as Dominic's beard tickled his face. He dodged Dominic and stretched out his hand to pull Dominic's beard.
"Hey, hey, hey! You little devil! You can't pull my beard..."
Before he finished speaking, he seemed to have thought of something. Dominic stopped abruptly and turned his head to look in
Alexander's direction.
No matter how he played with Galen, Dominic had always been unscrupulous in front of Lily. However, he hadn't adequately
greeted Alexander.
Although Dominic did not fear him, Alexander was still Galen's father.
Alexander raised his eyebrows, but he wasn't bothered. He did not expect his son to get along with this old man so well, and it
seemed like Galen was enjoying his there.
With a dry cough, the old man walked over with Galen in his arms and sat down across from Alexander. Dominic allowed Galen to
tug at his beard but lowered his head a little, so it didn't hurt so much.
"Mr. Russell, what are you doing here?" He asked solemnly, pretending to be unfamiliar.
Alexander was very polite. "Mr. Fike, you can callAlex. Lily is your apprentice. | should address you as Master Fike instead."
"No, don't..." Dominic frowned in disgust. "Don't be so cheesy. Even that girl never callsthat, so you shouldn't either! Besides, |
didn't even make you my apprentice. How can you addressas your master?"
Only the little boy in his arms had the right to call him "Master."

That didn't sit right either. In that case, wouldn't that make Galen his mother's peer? Wouldn't that be a mess?
However, that didn't pose a big problem either. It wasn't wrong for Galen to continue calling Lily his mother.
Dominic found all of these quite intriguing and grinned at Galen.
The little guy did not know what was happening in Dominic's head, but when he saw his grandfather smiling, he smiled back.
Alexander did not know what to say, as these two did not take his presence seriously. It was as if he didn't exist.
Then he cleared his throat and said, "lI may have to trouble you for the next two days. He misses you very much."
Hearing this, Dominic raised his gaze and looked at him. He snorted softly and said, "Stop beating around the bush. That stinky girl
asked you to bring him here!"
However, Alexander shook his head. "No. | brought him over on my own accord."
