Chapter 1414
"You never expected that, did you?” Austin was pleased with himself and felt he could finally beat her at
one thing. "I restored the data you destroyed, and the lab is running as before-no, it's better than when
you were there, and I believe all experiments will soon succeed."
"You...” Lily wanted to tell him that he was an idiot and had self-righteously done something stupid. On
second thought, she knew she could achieve nothing by scolding him since he had recovered the data-
instead, she laughed coldly." Then I wish you good luck."
Austin thought Lily was upset that he could recover the data she destroyed and felt even prouder. "You
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthave no idea I learned from a hacker for a while, do you? I could restore the data even if you destroyed
the database and only smashed the hardware."
"Really?" Lily lifted her gaze and smiled because Austin had given her a new idea.
'He's right that I only destroyed the hardware. What if I hack into the database and destroy all lab data?
It seems like a good idea, doesn't it?’ Her gaze toward Austin grew friendlier with that thought in mind.
Lily lowered her head to sort out the plant in the bag, then cleaned her hands and returned to say to
her son, "Galen, let's go home."
She clapped, but the little boy ducked into a corner with his buttocks lifted because he was having too
much fun there." No, no..."
"No? Look how messy you made grandpa's place! How many strands of grandpa’s beard have you
pulled from his chin? He'll lose his beard if you keep doing that! You can't do that." Lily chided her son
quietly, and the older man subconsciously felt his beard and hair.
'It's not gone yet, is it?'
Even Austin looked at Dominic despite himself and saw his most precious beard look rambling.
"Ahem..." Dominic let out a dry cough to hide his embarrassment and said, "If he would like to play for a
while longer, then let him. You always come and go in a hurry and treat this place like a hotel-no, a
shopping mall, where you can just leave after shopping. Take a seat. What's the hurry?"
Lily turned around when she heard those words. "Then how about I let Galen stay here for a few days,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmand I only pick him up when he wants to go home?"
The boy widened his eyes and clapped. "Okay, okay!"
However, Dominic looked terrified and blurted, "Okay, my a* s!"
He noticed Galen’s disappointment, regretted what he had said, and continued, "I'm saying I have no
problem with you staying here, but your mom will worry."
"I won't!" Lily said.
Dominic shot her a look. 'Can you not sabotage me?'
He added, "Then your dad will worry!"
'His dad...' Lily's faint smile froze. She thought about Alexander, who was still overseas with his fate
unknown to her, and her longing for him grew stronger.
"Old man..." she said quietly. "Have you heard of the pandemic in Burnwken?"
Her voice seemingly did not sound off and was light and casual, but since Dominic knew her well, he
could tell otherwise and asked, "Why?"
