Chapter 1264
Dominic wanted to curse Alexander when he first saw Lily's bulging belly.
'The Russell family isn't about to die out. What's the rush in making babies?'
However, Dominic was Lily’s teacher and had no say in this matter. Besides, he could imagine how
Wilfred would happily brag about him having great-grandchildren if the man were still alive.
'Oh, Wilfred...' Dominic's eyes dimmed when he thought about his departed friend. 'Our short lives are
full of endless encounters and separations.'
He had not met the right woman since he devoted all his time and energy to learning about herbal
medicine. He would have missed her if he did. Therefore, he had always been alone and had nothing

occasionally.' Thinking so, he became saddened.
At the mention of her child, Lily suddenly remembered she was no longer alone and was living with a
restless, naughty boy. 'He's full of curiosity.
What if...’
"Then you give that to me." Lily pointed at the wilfordi and added before Dominic could say anything,
"But I'll leave it here and come and study it when there's a need."
"That's a great idea!" Dominic slapped his thigh and was overjoyed.
'Why didn’t I think of that? Then I can lure her over with the vine and have someone to talk to. Alas, I
must be getting old! Even my brain is not functioning well.'
"So it's a deal then. You look after it, and if anything happens to it, I’ll..."
'You'll what? Sever your ties with me? Or betray me?" Dominic held his chin up and looked defiant.
Lily revealed a sweet smile. "What are you saying? Am I that kind of person?"
"You-"
Before he could finish, Lily continued, "I just think you must be bored living here alone. Why don't I
bring Galen over to keep you company for a few days?'
Dominic looked horrified and waved repeatedly. "No, no, there's no need! Your son is still young and
needs his parents. I'm too old for this-l mean, I can't take care of him well. I’m better at taking care of
my plants!
"That's right! I'll take good care of the vine, so don't worry. As for your beloved son, you and Alex

"Sir?"
"What’s the matter?" Dominic furrowed his brows and looked upset. "Didn't I tell you not to bother me
when there's a guest?”
"It's the young master. He’s waited for quite a while. Are you..." The housekeeper was asking if Dominic
wished to see the guest.
Surprised, Dominic subconsciously glanced at Lily as she had just mentioned that person.
If Lily had not guessed who the "young master" was, Dominic's glance gave her the answer.
Lily waved and said, "I’ve been here for quite a while, so I better get going.
Go meet your guest.”
