Chapter 160

Author: Axcellent
The courtroom erupted into chaos. Even James' pupils constricted. He fixed his gaze on the judge, his eyes cold with intensity.

Isabella snapped back to herself and released a hysterical cry. "I don't accept this. I want to appeal!"

Nothing felt real. Seven years of marriage to Dominic were over, just like that.

"Order!" The judge struck the gavel and spoke with measured calm. "According to the plaintiff's request, the marital property will belong to the wife. We will now address custody of t

    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 smiled."Everyone knows Amaze Construction operates in real estate. Cosmos No. 2 is attractive, but it may not suit me. However…" He turned to Dominic. "I may not have much else, but I do have money. Mr. Fleming, keep bidding. If it's not enough, I'll cover the rest."At this, Dominic exhaled in relief. Gratitude showed in his eyes as he called out, "1.05 billion dollars!"Elijah's expression darkened. "Mr. Moore, as far as I know, JewelMed's debt is already as high as 1 billion dollars. If you lend money now, aren't you afraid it will all go to waste?"Isaac shook his head. "That's my business. It has nothing to do with you."Dominic smiled and echoed Elijah's earlier words. "Mr. Grant getting anxious? If you don't have money, why are you here?"Elijah snorted and fell silent, turning his focus to strategy.The price had reached 1.05 billion dollars. At this level, the host fell quiet, allowing time for consideration.After a long pause, Elijah spoke calmly. "1.1 billion

    As soon as the host finished speaking, someone impatiently called out a bid."90,000,000 dollars!"Before the host could respond, Dominic spoke in a deep voice. "500,000,000 dollars."The entire venue erupted.Nearly 200 companies were present, and most had total valuations below 200,000,000 dollars. Dominic's opening bid of 500,000,000 stunned the crowd.However, those seated in the first two rows showed no change in expression. They understood the value of Cosmos No. 2.The host immediately grew animated. "Mr. Fleming of the JewelMed Group bids 500,000,000 dollars! It seems he is extremely optimistic about the prospects of Cosmos No. 2!"The atmosphere grew lively as quiet discussions spread through the room.Less than half a minute later, another voice entered the bidding.Stephen spoke calmly. "600,000,000 dollars."Dominic stiffened and turned sharply toward him, but Stephen only offered a faint, composed smile.Dominic frowned.Elijah, seated beside him, observed ever

    Benjamin, however, wore a look of satisfaction as he said, "Speaking of which, you've taken care of Isabella for many years. I should thank you. If you have time, I'd like to treat you to a meal, Mr. Fleming."His tone was polite and courteous, yet Dominic still sensed a hint of provocation.At that moment, Isabella spoke. "Let's go."Benjamin quickly said, "I was—"Before he could finish, she turned and walked away. He had no choice but to follow.Dominic watched their retreating figures, deep in thought. 'Are those matters… really Benjamin's doing?'After a moment's thought, he sent Isabella a text.Dominic: [Let's meet later. Let's talk somewhere.]Isabella and Benjamin had already reached an empty table and taken their seats.Although the Skyline City branch of the Anderson Group was not qualified to participate in the bidding, it had no trouble securing a seat.At that moment, Isabella's phone vibrated. She glanced at it.Seeing this, Benjamin immediately asked, "Isabel

    Alexander's eyes widened, and a chill ran through him when he saw the look in Dominic's eyes. He swallowed hard.Thinking of Isabella nearby, he quickly spoke with a pitiful expression. "Dom! I know you suspect me, but I really didn't push you. There were so many people there. You must've been sque

    Isabella pushed open the ward door but froze mid-sentence. The room was empty. Dominic was nowhere to be found.Her expression changed at once. She rushed inside, searching every corner, but there was no sign of her husband.She stood motionless for a long while before suddenly slapping herself ha

    Isabella admitted she had made a mistake, but she didn't think it was serious. She hadn't cheated or done anything that truly betrayed her husband. Once they talked it through, she believed they could return to the way they had been before.Soon, Katherine answered the call. "Hello, Bella.""Kathy

    "I checked the driver's dashcam, ma'am. There were quite a few people waiting for the bus at that time. I could only see your husband rushing out from the crowd," Samuel said.Isabella's face darkened, and she clenched her jaw. "You can't see who pushed him? What about street surveillance?"Samuel
