The other party said lightly, "What is it?"

Zachary's tone turned cautious as he asked carefully, "There should be an outcome tonight. I just want to confirm something. After we move against Dominic, the Hale family won't react, right? After all, Miss Hale and he have a… complicated relationship."

"Complicated?" The other person gave a cold laugh and replied in a casual tone. "Don't worry. Jessica can't control the Hale family. This time, they won't step in to help him. Focus on your task and

    A mischievous glint flashed in Dominic's eyes as he teased, "Autumn, what else could you possibly need as a gift? When I went in earlier, there were so many presents they could barely fit."Inside the villa, dozens of exquisitely wrapped boxes were stacked in every corner.Autumn froze. Disappointment flickered across her eyes, but she withdrew her hand and forced a smile. "You're right. I don't need a gift anyway. Haha."Dominic only smiled. He reached into his pocket, pulled out a neatly folded sheet of drawing paper, and handed it to her.Her fingers trembled as she took it and unfolded it with quiet anticipation.The moment she saw the drawing, she gasped and covered her mouth.A peach tree filled the page. A young version of Autumn lounged on a branch, lazily nibbling a peach. Beneath the tree, her grandmother stood with a cane, pretending to scold her down. The older woman's face carried equal parts irritation and resignation, yet her eyes revealed unmistakable affection.

    Jewel froze and turned toward him. "Dominic, are you saying all this money is going straight into the company account? But you won it. It's your personal money."Dominic waved her off. "Since when did you become so fussy? If I tell you to handle it, just handle it. Why so many questions?"'You were willing to give up JewelMed to save me. Why would I care about a measly 200,000,000?' he groaned inwardly.His tone was sharp, but Jewel did not take offense. Instead, a faint, captivating smile curved her lips. She met his gaze through the rearview mirror on the center console, her eyes bright. "Don't worry, Dominic."Autumn watched the exchange, envy stirring with a quiet sting in her chest.She tightened her grip on Dominic's arm. "Dominic, I always thought I could control my own life. Today I realized I'm just a small creature trapped in an ivory tower, unable to direct my own fate. What do you think I should do?"One word from her mother had been enough to drag her into a room, po

    'Why is Autumn crying?'Startled, Dominic hurried toward her. "Hey, Autumn, what's wrong?"Tears streamed down her face like broken pearls, sliding over her delicate cheeks. The sight was painful to watch.Without a word, she ran to him and wrapped her arms around him, sobbing uncontrollably.Jewel felt a sharp pang in her chest. She had assumed a brief hug would be harmless, but Autumn showed no sign of letting go.Unable to stand by any longer, Jewel gently pulled her away. She cleared her throat and said in a steady voice, "Autumn, try not to cry right now. Let's talk this through calmly."Unaware of her aunt's hidden motives, Autumn took the gesture as comfort. She wiped her tears and choked out, "Dominic, please don't leave, okay?"Jade had locked her in her room, and she had only regained her freedom after calling her father. When she saw what had happened and realized Dominic had left without attending her birthday party, it felt as though her heart had been split open. S

    At that moment, many of the guests turned to look at Jade. Their eyes fixed on her, and the weight of their stares made her skin prickle with discomfort.Logan's eyes reddened."I'll find proof that you cheated!" He spoke through clenched teeth and shook the dice with stiff, mechanical movements.Dominic shook his head. "Your chips aren't enough."Logan froze. Only then did he remember that the round had not yet been settled. He quickly counted the remaining chips and realized they fell far short of covering the loss.He slumped into his chair, his body going limp.Without realizing it, he had lost more than 300,000,000 dollars. Although he had personally put up about 200,000,000, the amount still exceeded what he could bear.'200,000,000 dollars…' The thought alone made him nearly faint.The Pierces could not compare to the Hughes or the Grants in Skyline City, much less the wealthiest family, the Garcias. 200,000,000 dollars in cash would almost drain the Pierces' liquidity,

    The joy that had just lit Logan's face vanished in an instant.Jade had not expected her husband to embarrass her in public. She gritted her teeth, stepped forward, and said, "Honey, about this matter—""Is this a place for you to speak?" Stephen cut in, his voice cold. "Go back inside."Jade's expression shifted. She tried to speak again, but Sully Garcia murmured beside her, "My dear sister-in-law, please don't say anything for now."Only then did Stephen turn to Dominic with a faint smile. "Play without worry."Dominic tilted his head, glanced at him, and nodded calmly.He could not tell whether the two men were putting on a show. Stephen had arrived at neither an early nor a late moment, but precisely at this critical point. The timing was hard to ignore.Logan stared at the chips on the table, cold sweat soaking his back. If he admitted to cheating, he would lose more than 100,000,000 dollars. He could afford the loss, but once his father returned from abroad, the explanati

    In just three rounds, Dominic's chips rose from 20,000 dollars to 160,000 dollars.For most gamblers, winning three consecutive rounds was a fantasy. He had done it with effortless ease.Logan froze for a moment, then sneered, "What a pity. If you'd brought more chips, you could have won even more."To him, just over a million dollars meant almost nothing.Dominic gave him a cool look. "Enough talk. Shake."The fourth round began. Then the fifth. Then the sixth.Dominic won all three.His stack of chips climbed to 1,280,000 dollars.By the seventh round, Logan hesitated for a long while before making a move.Disbelief clouded his eyes as he ground his teeth. "Your luck is really that good?"Dominic smiled. "Is there a problem?"That smile made Logan's heart pound. Ten million dollars was not a significant sum to him, yet an inexplicable pressure settled over his chest.By now, nearly every guest had gathered to watch. Six consecutive wins were rare in any gambling hall. The
