Chapter 1408
Upon hearing that, all the servants looked in Austin's direction. Two seconds later, they again lowered
their heads and continued searching for someone, yelling, 'Young master! Young master?"
Austin was utterly puzzled. 'Is there another young master besides me? What?’
With a confused look, he continued walking toward the manor, not bothering to ask the servants what
was happening. When he was about to reach the residence, he could no longer move his feet.
He looked down and saw a little boy hugging his calf and clinging to it like a koala. Austin looked down
while the little boy looked up with a grin. "Teehee!"
The little boy did not have all his teeth yet, and on his face was an innocent smile. However, his
presence shocked Austin. "Whose kid is this?"
Subconsciously, he wanted to shake the boy off his calf, but even though the little boy was still young,

shoe like it was a swing.
The more Austin shook his leg, the happier the little boy seemed. "Hahaha..."
"Get down. Get down right now!" Austin had never cared for a child before and did not know how to
interact with kids.
Getting his calf hugged suddenly stopped him from entering the house and frustrated him. "Whose kid
is this?"
His yells immediately attracted everyone else's attention, including Dominic, who was about to head
outside the house to look for Galen. When Dominic arrived at the door and saw the sight in front of him,
he roared, "Don't move!"
Although he was old, his roar was thunderous and powerful, shocking Austin to his core that he froze in
his spot, not daring to move. Austin was slowly losing stability because he had one leg on the ground
while his other leg was midair, holding Galen.
"G-Granduncle...” He threw Dominic a painful look, thinking the little boy would get into trouble for
creating such chaos here.
'Granduncle is mad. He's even trembling from his anger.’
"Oh, my dear grandson..." Dominic opened his arms and ran toward Austin. It stunned the latter, and
he was so emotional that he was on the verge of tearing up.
It was the first time Dominic addressed him this way over the past twenty years. No matter what
happened, blood was still thicker than water.
"Grandpa..." Due to Austin’s emotions, he immediately addressed Dominic as his grandfather.
However, before he finished his sentence, he saw Dominic squatting before him and carrying the little
boy in his arms. "Let’s not sit there, all right? It's dirty!"
Austin was shocked to his core. Galen's grip on Austin's calf was tight, so Dominic had difficulty picking

Upon hearing that, Galen immediately let go of Austin’s calf and grabbed Dominic’s beard. "Pull..."
'Yeah, you're pulling it..." Although there were tears in Dominic's eyes, he still allowed Galen to hold on
to his beard.
Austin had no words. He was heartbroken, and his heart hurt as if a group of men had just stomped on
it one after another. He had never felt this hurt before.
'It turns out that granduncle wasn't calling me, and the servants weren't looking for me either. The
"young master" they called wasn't me, but that brat! Granduncle even allows him to play with his beard!
'I can't even pour him a cup of tea without suffering the looks he would give me, but this brat had
granduncle's beard in his hand, looking like he was about to pull it off soon. Yet, granduncle is saying
nothing about it!’
