Though a little startled, Austin quickly explained, "A servant from the estate called and told me some foreigners took Uncle Dom away."

The servants were not sure who those people were, but it was clear their employer had been forced into leaving with them. Knowing they had to alert someone, the first person that came to mind was Austin. Although Austin was not exactly Dominic's student, the servants considered him to be one of them because he was their employer's grandnephew and had lived with them for a while. Most importantly, he was popular among the servants as he had cured them.

When Austin received the news, he immediately had a clue and came to replace Alexander.

"Foreigners?" Alexander thought of someone as well.

"Do you also think it's Fred?" Austin asked as if he had read Alexander's mind.

"I think so." Alexander nodded. "But why would he want to abduct Dominic? Could it be for the experiment, too?"

Although the experiment needed all kinds of experts, they would not have waited until now if they needed Dominic.

"I have no idea, but the servant said Dominic left with them willingly, so I don't think it's that simple." Austin frowned.

The two fell silent. Austin then curiously peered inside.

Catching himself, Alexander opened the door wider. "Come in."

He was not trying to hide anything from Austin. He did not want too many people to know who Ross was or that he was staying there. However, since Austin was already here, he might as well tell him. "Are you sure?" Austin hesitated.

He knew Alexander had reasons for not asking him to join them. He was not upset about it, just a bit curious.

"It's okay," Alexander said, "I had reasons for asking you not to join us, but it's not something you shouldn't know about. Let's talk inside." He beckoned.

Austin stepped inside. Seeing Mike and a foreigner seated on the sofa and Edward standing beside them, he asked, "A secret meeting, huh?"

"Not really." Alexander chuckled and led him to Ross. "This is Prince Ross of Yudonia."

"Oh..." Austin caught on. "Now I know why I wasn't asked to join, but don't worry, my lips are sealed." He chuckled as he looked at Ross. "Long time no see, Your Highness!" Alexander and Mike were surprised.

Giving Austin a friendly hug, Ross said, 'Hey, Aust. It's been a minute."
