His secret spoiled wife (Lily and Alexander)

Chapter 1299

Chapter 1299

Austin had been holding back. He had not been optimistic about this project since the beginning, whether or not it would succeed.

To him, this whole experiment was a waste of time.

However, after his repeated encounters with Lily, alongside how close she seemed to be with his granduncle, he wanted to show

her who was on top. Lily was just a mere woman in his eyes. At this moment, Austin was keen on making achievements to prove

that she was not as good as him.

Once Thompson agreed, Austin would bury himself in the laboratory the whole day. He would think about it all the time.

Traditionally, one would slowly boil medicinal herbs to obtain their medicinal properties. Not only should one pay attention to the

heat, but one must also correctly control the amount of water used. After all, the medicinal properties would dissipate if the

medicinal herbs were left to boil for too long.

Right now, they were not boiling the herbs. Instead, the medicinal properties would get absorbed through volatilization.

The issue with this was no one knew how much of the medicinal properties would get absorbed through volatilization. The

medicinal herbs’ properties could have been more stable and easier to control. One would expect this when others used such a

method.

After spending several days in the laboratory, Austin still did not think he had achieved an outstanding result. After much

deliberation, he had decided to consult Dominic for advice.

Although Dominic had not practiced medicine for years, his research in medicinal herbs never stopped. His villa was full of all sorts

of rare herbs. Besides that, Austin heard that Doimnic had a piece of land he had made into a large plantation.

However, Austin had never seen it before. He had tried to ask about it once, but Dominic immediately shut him down.

Austin’s visit went smoothly, as Dominic allowed him into the villa without making him wait. Although Austin did not see a red

sports car outside, he still looked for Lily after entering the door to confirm that she was not there.

That made sense. With Dominic's temper, even Austin, as his grandnephew, found it hard to visit him, let alone an outsider like Lily.

Austin was sure that Dominic was only willing to meet her and treat her kindly because of that secret apprentice of his.

Austin had yet to learn who the mysterious, secret apprentice was. He had met all of Dominic's previous apprentices, but this last

one seemed like a big deal.

On the other hand, Lily, who knew the secret apprentice but did not want to tell Austin, still mocked him for being an imposter.

Initially, he had never thought about taking up the secret apprentice title. However, those opinionated people began to spread

those rumors.

Now, most recognized Austin as Dominic's secret apprentice. If he were to deny it at this time, it would be incredibly embarrassing,

and everyone would consider him a liar.

Austin did not see anything wrong with taking a bullet for the secret apprentice since the apprentice liked being mysterious and

lowkey. He thought he was helping the secret apprentice and Dominic to sextent. With those thoughts in mind, Austin felt a

surge of pride.

Dominic was boiling smedicinal herbs inside the house as the smell lingered in the air. The place always smelled like this.

Whenever Austin left, his body would reek of medicinal herbs.

"Granduncle Dominic,” he called out smilingly and lifted the things in his hand. "My parents returned from a trip a few days ago

and bought you a set of purple clay teapots. They know you like them.”

Dominic raised his gaze lazily and dropped them again, uninterested. What can your parents buy that will be good?"
