Chapter 1677


    Someone had called Austin a human trafficker for the first time in his life. He was nonplussed and


    caught himself after two seconds before reaching an arm through the grille to point at Galen.


    “Hey, you little brat! Who are you calling a human trafficker? Have you seen such a good-looking one?


    How could you use me of such things?!”


    “who are you calling little brat, Little Brat?” Having given no response, Dominic suddenly leaped out of


    nowhere and shouted at Austin.


    Austin lost his nerve when he saw his granduncle. “U-Uncle Dom, it wasn’t me...”


    “Who else but you? I heard it! I’m doing you a favor by letting you stay here, you know? How dare you


    scold my grandson?” Dominic stood akimbo and argued loudly with him.


    Austin was at a loss for a moment. He tried vainly to stop himself from retorting, “Uncle Dom, I''m your


    grandnephew. That little brat—" He noticed Dominic’s re and quickly amended, “That little thing did it


    on purpose. Besides, he is not rted to you...”


    His voice grew softer as he faltered.


    “why do you care?” Dominic stomped his foot. “Who says he’s not rted to me? He’s my grandson!”


    He lovingly carried Galen and put the boy on his shoulders as he continued, “I’m warning you. Stop


    messing with him! Just stay where you are and wait for your father to pick you up!”


    He immediately walked away after scolding his grandnephew.


    Austin saw them leaving and hurriedly said, “Uncle Dom! Please open the door. Why are you locking


    me up? I want to leave and report something to the police!”


    “Report what to the police?” Dominic halted and backpedaled to look up at Austin.


    However, as Galen straddled his shoulders, he could not tilt his head back much and slightly cocked it


    instead. “Report something to the police for what? Since you’ve gone missing, the police have been


    looking all over for you. Do you have to call them? Or do you want them toe over here?”


    Hearing that, Austin let out a sigh of relief as he thought Dominic was right.


    “But not here, okay?” Dominic nearly went into the house, but he thought of something and came back


    to add, “After your parents fetch you, you can invite the police to your ce and talk your heart out!”


    “Uncle Dom! Uncle Dom!” Austin saw the two leave his sight and quickly called out to his granduncle.


    ‘I haven''t even finished speaking. How could Uncle Dom just leave? He should at least let me out,


    shouldn''t he? What’s the deal with locking me up in the room?’

    However, Dominic no longer paid him any attention. Just as Austin eagerly wanted to go and bang the


    door, he discovered his arm had gotten stuck Although the space between the bars was not wide,


    Austin extended his arm just now.


    However, he could not pull it out now as it got stuck at his elbow.


    Austin thought at first that it was because of the angle. He shifted into a different position but could not


    pull his arm out still. He twisted his arm as he pulled it out but to no avail.


    After several attempts, his arm started to hurt as his skin got scraped. Worse, his arm became swollen


    with blood after his struggle, and it was harder to pull it out.


    “Uncle Dom! My arm is stuck!” He screamed as he attempted to pull it out. No one responded, and he


    was shocked to discover he was going through another attack.


    ‘It’s the sickness again!’


    It was just as when he was imprisoned. His body rapidly bloated like a balloon, and he felt like his skin


    was splitting apart with his veins bulging. He felt like something was pulling his whole body apart as his


    muscles ached.


    The feeling of getting torn apart alive was so painful that he gritted his teeth, bit his lower lip, and


    screamed.
