Chapter 458

Author: Axcellent
After telling Katherine he had something to handle, Dominic still answered Jessica's video call.

A moment later, her pretty, palm-sized face filled the screen.

Jessica shook her hair, eyes bright with anticipation. "Dominic, does it look good?"

She still wore twin ponytails, but this time they were dyed wine red.

Dominic studied her for a few seconds, then said, "It does."

Jessica had always been naturally attractive. The new color added a hint of allure.

She beamed at his praise. Then her

    Before, they had still shared moments of intimacy, and Dominic had even taken the initiative to kiss her. But today's video call made Jessica feel that something had shifted again.Dominic didn't know how to explain it. He said with a bitter smile, "Some things did happen. I'll tell you the next time we meet, okay?"Jessica panicked. Her voice trembled as she asked, "Dominic, are you… breaking up with me?"Dominic felt helpless. From beginning to end, he had never actually confirmed a relationship with her. They had kissed and touched, yet saying that aloud made him sound like a jerk.He took a deep breath. "Don't ask anymore. It's not convenient over the phone. I'll tell you when we meet."Dominic had not gone so far as to become a complete scumbag. His relationship with Katherine had to remain quiet, but only because of Isabella. Deep down, he acknowledged that relationship, so he could not continue leaving things ambiguous with Jessica.Jessica fell silent. She could vaguely g

    After telling Katherine he had something to handle, Dominic still answered Jessica's video call.A moment later, her pretty, palm-sized face filled the screen.Jessica shook her hair, eyes bright with anticipation. "Dominic, does it look good?"She still wore twin ponytails, but this time they were dyed wine red.Dominic studied her for a few seconds, then said, "It does."Jessica had always been naturally attractive. The new color added a hint of allure.She beamed at his praise. Then her gaze shifted. She reached up, grasped both ponytails, licked her rosy lips, and said in a teasing voice, "So, Dominic… do you want to grab them?"Certain images flashed through his mind. His heart jolted without warning.He cleared his throat and said quickly, "Jessica, stop fooling around.""I'm not fooling around!" She blinked innocently. "Hey, is someone with you?"Dominic shook his head. "I'm not in Skyline City. I'm staying in a nearby town tonight. I'm alone in the hotel."Her eyes l

    Back then…Besides Isabella's own insistence, Leticia also rose to her feet.She stepped in front of Isabella and declared with authority, "My granddaughter decides what happens with her child. If anyone else dares argue, try me."The room fell silent at once. Not one of the dozen or so people present dared speak.Even his father-in-law, James, did not dare oppose Leticia.Dominic had secured his place at the head of the Sinclairs' table only because Leticia had spoken on his behalf.Later, when Yvonne tried to stir trouble and secretly arranged for someone to castrate Dominic, she gravely underestimated him.The men she sent not only failed to restrain him, but he even captured one of them alive.When Isabella interrogated the captive and learned that Yvonne was behind it, she went berserk, grabbed a knife, and tried to kill her on the spot.James stopped her in time. Yvonne survived but suffered several stab wounds and was rushed to the ICU.When she was discharged, no puni

    Lydia asked nervously, "What are you planning to do?"Dominic turned to look at her. "You wanted to protect your family, right? Simple. Kill Zachary. If that doesn't solve the problem, deal with whoever is creating it."Lydia clenched her teeth, anger flashing in her eyes. "I've dreamed of killing him, but I can't do it."Dominic smiled. He took out a pink plastic ring and held it out to her. "Put this on."A single strand of hair was wrapped around the ring.Lydia looked at him, resentment still lingering. "Don't toy with me."Dominic said nothing. He caught her hand and slid the ring onto her finger.The next moment, Lydia froze.A familiar November chill brushed against her skin. She stared ahead and whispered, "I… I came back to life?""Temporarily," Dominic replied.Shock flooded her face. "Dom, you…"Words failed her.Bringing the dead back to life. What kind of power was that?A trace of awe entered her gaze."After your body is cremated tomorrow, you'll be able to

    'So this is her obsession,' Dominic thought. 'Luckily, I warned her in advance that Zachary would target her family and planted the idea in her mind. Otherwise, this fixation might never have taken root.'In truth, he knew Zachary would most likely never touch Lydia's family.'I really am a terrible person, even deceiving a ghost.'Embarrassed, Dominic rubbed his nose and said, "It's all in the past. Your next life will be better."Lydia paused. "I know you're trying to comfort me, but that doesn't sound right."Dominic smiled. "Don't worry. The person who killed you will be caught."Lydia nodded, then hesitated. An eager look crossed her face. "Dom, can you help me?""With what?""Protect my family." Lydia bit her lip. "I'm afraid Zachary will go after them. That bastard is capable of anything, and the Grants of Skyline City have the resources to back him up."She had been with Zachary for a long time. She knew that to the Grants, human life meant nothing.Their power ran de

    Lydia looked around in disbelief.Dominic strolled over at an unhurried pace, a faint chuckle escaping him. "Stop staring. I'm talking to you."She stared at him in shock. "You… can see me?"She already understood what she had become. She had not wanted to remain in the house and listen to the mourners wail, so she had stepped outside for some quiet.She never expected Dominic to approach her. She certainly never expected him to speak to her.Dominic's tone turned flat. "Why does every one of you always start with that line?"Still dressed in her red nightgown, Lydia asked blankly, "Dom, who… exactly are you?""You should call me Mr. Fleming now," he replied casually.She froze. After a long moment, she forced a bitter smile. "I actually tried to scheme against you. I must have been asking for trouble."Dominic waved a dismissive hand, walked past her, and entered the mourning hall.The hall was crowded, mostly with Lydia's relatives.The moment he stepped inside, the room f
