Abigail's expression did not change. "Are you trying to get yourself killed?"

"Hahaha!" Everyone burst out laughing. This kind of banter was clearly routine for them.

    The next day, Dominic looked a little pale.He boarded the helicopter with Autumn.Quite a few people came out to see him off.Oliver frowned, glanced around twice, and asked curiously, "Where are those two? Still sleeping? Go wake them up!"The maid acknowledged him and was about to head inside.Dominic quickly stopped her. "Uh, it's getting late! I'm heading out, so don't wake them."Based on his estimate, the sisters probably wouldn't get up until evening.After the helicopter took off, Autumn held his hand and asked curiously, "Dom, why is your calf trembling?""Is it?" Dominic replied calmly, "It's not trembling. You're seeing things!""Oh."…By the time they arrived in Skyline City, it was around noon.There was a helipad behind the Garcia villa. When the helicopter landed, Stephen and Jade were already waiting.The moment she stepped off, Autumn rushed over. "Dad! Mom!"It was the first Mardi Gras Autumn had ever spent away from home.Carrying a large pile of gif

    There was no surprise. No one answered.In the chat window, every message Dominic had sent since morning showed only gray ticks.Jessica's last reply was still the one she had sent a little after 11:00 p.m. the previous night.Isabella frowned when she saw it. "That's a bit strange."Dominic tried calling Jessica again, but the call failed to connect.The failed call left him slightly irritated.Suddenly, his phone chimed.Dominic immediately looked down.A message from Jessica had arrived.Jessica: [I'm sorry, Dom. I've been a bit busy during Mardi Gras!]Seeing the message, Dominic quietly let out a breath of relief.He didn't think much of it. The Hales' affairs were even more complicated than most, so it was normal for her to be busy.After spending some time outside with Isabella, he returned to the Sinclairs' villa.The next day, from early morning onward, Dominic received a nonstop stream of calls and messages offering holiday wishes.Most were from people at the c

    Back in Eastmere State, time seemed to slow down.Every day, laughter and cheerful voices echoed throughout the Sinclair family villa.The card games never stopped, but Dominic had little interest in them. He preferred spending his time in the kitchen, carefully shaping each beignet.For Bastians, eating beignets during Mardi Gras was a tradition that had been passed down through generations.Dominic's cooking skills were beyond question. Every beignet he made was plump and perfectly shaped.Of course, once Lilith charged into the kitchen, everything turned into a complete mess.A large round tray held rows of neatly arranged beignets, each identical in shape and size. Then the girl placed her crooked, misshapen lump of dough among them, and Dominic's mouth twitched.He said darkly, "Take it off. Right now."Intimidated by her father's authority, Lilith reached out to remove it. Unfortunately, she wasn't careful and knocked the entire tray onto the floor.Apparently, when it c

    As Oliver spoke, he moved to pick up Lilith. But when his gaze swept across the group, his expression suddenly froze.The woman stepping out of the passenger seat wore a mask and a hat, yet something about her figure felt incredibly familiar."You..." The word slipped out before he could stop himself.Isabella grinned. "It's only been a few days. Don't tell me you already don't recognize me."The moment he heard that familiar voice, Oliver's eyes widened. It was as if something had caught in his throat.He stood there in stunned silence for a full ten seconds before turning to Dominic and carefully seeking confirmation. "Dominic, she..."Dominic nodded. "I brought her back."The instant he received confirmation, Oliver's eyes reddened. He looked Isabella up and down, and when he saw that she was completely unharmed, he suddenly pulled her into a hug. Yet he was so overcome with emotion that he couldn't say a word.Isabella's eyes reddened as well. Still, she complained playfull

    After scrolling through short videos for quite a while, Dominic actually felt relieved.At present, the public's attitude toward Cosmos No. 2 was largely one of cautious observation. It wasn't generating explosive hype.But Dominic and Jewel had already discussed this possibility beforehand. Everything was unfolding within their expectations.At that moment, Autumn seemed unable to hold back any longer and let out a trembling sound that was incredibly alluring.Only then did Dominic realize what he had been doing. He awkwardly withdrew his hand.Autumn shot him a deeply resentful glare, then rose from the couch and walked away. Her footsteps were so heavy that it seemed she wanted to stomp a hole through the floor.Dominic simply chuckled at the sight.…Over the next few days, Dominic didn't go anywhere. He stayed home, spending time with the three women and Lilith.The days were indescribably comfortable.Then February 14 arrived. Everyone prepared to leave for Eastmere Sta

    Dominic thought for a moment, then said, "I'll ask Grandpa later."Mardi Gras was always better when the house was lively.Now that the Sinclair sisters were here with him, the Sinclairs practically felt like family."Dominic, do you think Grandpa... might not like me?" Katherine asked, her voice tinged with unease.Dominic smiled. "That's impossible. He's not that old-fashioned. Don't worry."Harold had never interfered with Dominic's choices.During the summer after the SATs, Dominic had expected his grandfather to make him join the military. Instead, Harold had simply said, "You're grown up now. Whatever you want to do, you should decide for yourself. If you run into a problem you can't solve, come back and find me. I will have your back."From that day on, Harold put away the ruler he had once used to discipline Dominic. It was also the first time he allowed Dominic to drink alcohol.Hearing that, Katherine finally relaxed.The two chatted for a while longer.Then Katheri

    "Didn't expect I'd even dream of him… This isn't good." Dominic's eyes sharpened, a chill flickering within them that could make anyone's heart tremble.Dawn had already broken. When he checked the clock, it was 6:30 a.m. He lit a cigarette and sat quietly for a while before dressing and getting up

    "Why are you bringing this up again? I already told you there's nothing between me and him. If you don't like it, I'll delete him from my contacts. Why can't you just let it go?" Isabella pouted and reached for the groceries in Dominic's hands. "Honey, put those down. Let me see your wounds.""My w

    The woman nodded thoughtfully. "My name is Cynthia Lewis. I probably died about ten days ago… I can't remember clearly."Dominic raised his brows. He'd thought a soul couldn't linger that long, yet this one had stayed for ten days. "How did you die?" he asked.Asking someone directly about their

  • She Chose Him, Now She Wants Me Back   Chapter 73

    This made Dominic exhale in relief. A moment ago, he had worried that if simple contact could summon a ghost, it might trigger unpredictable consequences.Cynthia turned and watched his back as he walked away. After a pause, she shouted, "I'll wait for you at the gate of Blossom Elementary tomorrow
