Aiden walked out to see Dexter engrossed in a conversation with Lily. The little girl was telling him a story, and he was listening as if his life depended on it.
Dexter wasn't taking any chances to offend Lily and, in turn, Aiden. Just then, Lily spotted Aiden and ran over to him.
"Big brother!" She exclaimed, jumping into his arms.
"Woah, easy there," Aiden chuckled. "How do you have so much energy?"
"Hehe, Lily ate gummies, that's why!"
Aiden nodded, patting her head while his gaze shifted to Dexter. The latter was peeking into the workshop. As for why he was doing it, well, even if he was scared of Aiden, he still wanted to see what happened to James.
Given how angry Aiden was, Dexter was expecting to hear painful cries and whatnot. But there was nothing.
"Want to see what's inside?" Aiden asked, without looking at him.
"N-Not at all, sir!" Dexter stammered. "I was hoping to learn more about those injectors and if they had any side effects."
