Chapter 166

Author: Axcellent
Isabella sat back down on the bed, her gaze unfocused, her thoughts clearly elsewhere.

Just then, the doorbell rang, jolting her out of her daze.

She hurried to the door. "Who is it?"

"It's me."

Recognizing the man's voice, Isabella opened the door.

Oliver stepped inside and asked bluntly, "How did it end up in a divorce?"

Isabella shook her head, dejected and unwilling to revisit the subject.

Oliver clenched his teeth. "He suggested it, didn't he? That bastard!"

He had only learned the

  • She Chose Him, Now She Wants Me Back   Chapter 693

    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

    "Not really. I just can't stand you. Could you move a little farther away?" Isabella said, her voice edged with frost.Jessica clenched her teeth. "Isabella, don't push it! Do you think I—"Isabella's eyes brightened with challenge. "I don't believe you. So what are you going to do about it? Go on

    Harold waved a hand and glanced toward the courtroom. "Looks like the verdict's coming soon. No matter what, the law's fair."It was a joke. With public opinion like this, who would dare act unfairly?No matter how powerful someone was, they still had to lower their heads in front of an old war le

    More than an hour later, the room finally settled into silence.It took Katherine a long while to recover before she slowly sat up.She pulled a pillow into her arms, but it was not enough to conceal her perfect figure. Her alluring skin showed like an accidental glimpse of spring, revealed uninte

    As long as they stayed within the law, Dominic had nothing to fear. In fact, he could use this moment to forge a reputation of integrity and strength.
