"Look at this!" Dominic finally snapped and sprang to his feet, ready to shove her out.

Jessica froze, her mouth hanging open wide enough to fit an egg.

"Go. Go. Go!" Dominic's face flushed as he pushed her outside.

Jessica stood there, stunned, for a full minute before she finally turned and went back to the guest room, lost in thought.

She lay on the bed, her expression tangled with conflicting emotions—shyness, fear, and a flicker of expectation.

For the time being, Dominic had no choice

    The sound was sharp with anguish, enough to make the heart tremble.Dominic showed no reaction. He released the man's arm, and the bodyguard collapsed, curling on the ground as his body shook.Two simple moves, a grip on the arm and a knee strike, took no more than a second or two.One bodyguard was already down. The other two hesitated, clearly shaken. But they had no choice now. They forced themselves forward and charged at Dominic.There was no suspense. In less than 30 seconds, all three lay on the ground, writhing and groaning.Dominic turned his gaze to the last bodyguard.The man had already been cut by Isabella and had been silently cursing his luck. When he saw his companions fall so quickly, he froze. 'Where did this monster come from? Skyline City is too dangerous. I want to go back to the capital…'Dominic made no move against him, and the bodyguard exhaled in relief, feeling a flicker of luck.Dominic looked at Rosie, his voice flat. "Do you still want to continue?

    At Rosie's command, four burly bodyguards rushed toward Isabella.With such a short distance, it would only take a few seconds to reach her.When Isabella saw this, her expression changed slightly, but she didn't show any sign of fear. Instead, a trace of madness appeared on her exquisite face.She reached into her bag with her right hand and then swung it forward without hesitation.In the next second, the first bodyguard to rush over let out a painful, muffled groan.Hearing this cry of pain, the others instinctively looked over and saw that the first bodyguard's clothes were sliced open at the chest, with bright red blood seeping out, looking quite shocking.Isabella took a few steps back, holding a delicate eyebrow blade in her hand, with blood dripping from the edge of the blade.She held the eyebrow blade across her front, her arm not trembling in the slightest, as she said coldly, "I dare any of you to come and try!"Isabella's eyes held a look of madness, and her tone w

    Oliver's voice cut off as he turned and saw Dominic.Lilith called out at once, "Daddy, Jessica, you're back!"Dominic glanced at Oliver with a half smile. "What were you just saying? Go on."Oliver shot him a glare. "You talk a lot of crap."Dominic sighed. "Weren't you the one who just said—""You're so annoying," Oliver cut in, his expression unchanged. "What exactly happened today?"The shift in topic was so smooth that Dominic could not fault it. He asked, "Didn't Katherine tell you?"Oliver froze, his gaze sliding toward Katherine on the sofa.She was on her phone. She calmly looked up and said, "No. Didn't you say it was a secret?"Oliver's expression darkened with resentment. This sister of his was a lost cause.Dominic stepped further into the room. "I tried to trap Elijah during today's bidding."Oliver understood at once. "You mean there's a problem with Cosmos No. 2?"Dominic nodded. "A big one. I told you back in Eastmere that Cosmos No. 2 wouldn't be ready for

    After the results were announced, anyone could see that Dominic's expression had turned grim.It was understandable. He had already tasted the success of White Cosmos No. 1 and had set his sights on securing Blue Cosmos No. 2.Unlike Dominic, who was weighed down by disappointment, Elijah, standing not far away, was all smiles.A crowd gathered around him, offering congratulations one after another."Congratulations, Mr. Grant, on securing Cosmos No. 2!""With Cosmos No. 2 in hand, the Grant Group is bound to reach another level."…Elijah could barely contain his grin. His gaze swept through the crowd and landed on Dominic, and the sight of his expression only deepened Elijah's sense of triumph.Dominic let out a cold snort, rose to his feet, and strode out of the banquet hall.Once outside the Grand Skyline Hotel, he took out a cigarette and lit it, his expression deliberately somber.He had to look that way. Otherwise, he might not be able to stop himself from laughing out

    Now everything was gone. Based on his intuition, Elijah believed the deaths of his two sons were inseparable from Dominic.At the thought, Elijah's eyes reddened. "Stephen, don't say another word. I'm asking you one thing. Will you lend me the money or not?"Stephen studied his expression for a long moment before sighing. "Fine. I won't screw you over. Since you're putting up Grant Mall as collateral, I'll give you 400,000,000 dollars. If you still can't win, I won't be able to help you any further."Elijah nodded.With this additional 400,000,000, the funds in his hands totaled 1.6 billion dollars, the maximum he could raise in a short time.Elijah rose to his feet, fixed his gaze on Dominic, and spoke each word with force. "I bid 1.5 billion dollars."He raised the price by 150,000,000 in a single move.The room fell silent. Everyone could see the tension stretched taut between him and Dominic. Both men were clearly determined to secure Cosmos No. 2.Dominic stood as well. Ab

    Dominic looked at Oliver, who had appeared out of nowhere like a savior, and his lip twitched.Oliver walked over, patted his shoulder, and said with a smile, "I know what you're trying to do. Don't worry. Just keep bidding. You don't need to stress about the money. With me here, the Sinclairs are your strongest support."Dominic stared at him in disbelief. 'Oliver, what on earth are you doing? You don't actually think you look cool, do you?'Just as the plan had been finalized, an enemy had emerged from within. Dominic was now caught in a bind. If he raised the price, there was a chance Elijah might give up, which would mean missing the opportunity.If he did not raise it, Elijah would certainly suspect something was wrong. Even if Elijah won the bid for White Cosmos No. 2, if he failed to pay or honor the contract in the end, no one could truly hold him accountable.Oliver's arrival left Dominic in a difficult position.However, Oliver did not see it that way. He noticed Domini

    Isaac hurried back and gripped Dominic's hand, barely able to contain his excitement. "Mr. Fleming, you mean…"Dominic pulled his hand away with a slight grimace. "Exactly what you're thinking. Don't ask anything else."Isaac's pupils quivered. He said nothing more and immediately made a phone cal

    Dominic had forced Andy into a dead end.The instant Andy moved, the strike came fast and razor-sharp. The murderous glint in his eyes felt almost physical.He was no ordinary man. If it had been anyone else, they would have died on the spot.Even Ezra barely had time for his expression to shift

    Dominic let out a soft laugh. He reached out, pressed Jessica's shoulder, and eased her back onto the bed. "Sleep first. We can chat a little. I still have to go back to the hospital later."The bandages on his body had not even been removed yet, and he still needed to remain hospitalized."Domini

    Dominic waved a hand. "Alright, let's be direct. I contacted Cosmos about White Cosmos No. 1. They told me that within five years, they will grant exclusive authorization only to you."Stephen replied, "Then let's talk about a collaboration now. JewelMed is too small. If you plan to operate White C
