LOGIN"Dominic!" Jewel called out to him.Jessica pouted and slipped out of his arms.'He's already with Katherine, and still…' Jewel cast Jessica a strange look. 'Men really do change once they have money.'She pretended not to notice anything, walked over, and sat beside Dominic. Clearing her throat lightly, she asked, "When did you get here?"Dominic smiled. "Not long ago."Inside the venue, the first row was arranged with one company per round table. Behind it, two or three companies usually shared each table. The setup was not due to a lack of space but was meant to highlight the special status of the first row. It was also a matter of traditional social etiquette in the country."There are still 20 minutes before it starts," Dominic said, glancing at the time.Jewel nodded and asked quietly, "Do we have a good chance this time? We only have 1 billion dollars, and I heard the starting price is already 80,000,000 dollars."Dominic replied vaguely, "I'll handle the bidding. As for
At that moment, Isaac spotted Dominic and waved in greeting. "Dominic!"Dominic nodded with a smile.Stephen saw him as well but said nothing, offering only a faint nod.Not far away, Elijah was chatting with a man. At the sound of Isaac's voice, both of them turned to look.The man said casually, "So that's Dominic, the chairman of JewelMed?"His voice was not loud, yet Dominic heard it clearly, and the tone was far from friendly.Elijah let out a cold laugh. "That's him."The man sneered, "A newly started company riding a wave of opportunity, and they get to sit in the same row as us? Cosmos Laboratory must have messed up the seating arrangement."He spoke without restraint, openly mocking Dominic alongside Elijah.Dominic remained calm. Anyone standing with Elijah was no friend of his.But the fiery woman beside him could not tolerate it. She walked over at once and said coldly, "Which idiot forgot to tie their pants tight and let you out?"The man froze, then his express
Dominic returned to the company and issued instructions to the finance department.At the same time, he asked Daniel to contact Abigail and have her go to the hospital for treatment as soon as possible.From his perspective, that was all he could do. Kenny's situation was a family matter, and it would not be appropriate for him to interfere. If he compared it to his own experience, if he had argued with Isabella in the past and someone like Alexander had suddenly stepped in to stop it, that would have felt intrusive.After resting in the office for a while, the workday ended before he realized it. Dominic left with Katherine to pick up Lilith.…The next few days passed peacefully until December 20.It was Saturday, so Lilith did not need to go to school. Dominic woke after 8:00 a.m. and went to Katherine's room to check on them.Katherine was already awake. She glanced at Lilith, who was sleeping soundly with her butt in the air.Lowering her voice, she said, "Dominic, since i
Abigail sniffled, wiped away her tears, drew a deep breath, and forced a smile. "Mr. Fleming, don't worry!"At that moment, a cold voice sounded nearby. "Who is he?"Dominic turned and saw a gloomy man in a wheelchair rolling toward them.Abigail's face drained of color. "Honey, he is my… colleague…"She turned back to Dominic. "Mr… No, Dominic, this is my husband, Kenny Mills."Dominic sensed it at once. Abigail's husband was extremely sensitive, so much so that she did not even dare call Dominic her supervisor. To him, a male boss or colleague likely felt threatening.Dominic understood. He smiled at Kenny. "Hello, Kenny. I'm Abigail's colleague. I came to see her today."Kenny showed no friendliness. He stared at Dominic with open hostility. "Where did this colleague come from? My wife needs you to visit her? You look decent, but who knows what you actually do?"Dominic's smile stiffened.Abigail hurried to intervene. "Honey, don't say that. He was sent by the company… The
Dominic returned to the office, thought it over, and still decided to see Abigail.He informed Katherine, then left the company.Daniel had just told him that Abigail had declined surgery at the hospital and had chosen conservative treatment instead, taking medication home.At the thought, Dominic let out a soft sigh. He knew Abigail's address. He bought some gifts and went over.…At the door, Dominic knocked."Who is it?" Abigail's voice came from inside."It's me, Dominic," he said.The door opened. When Abigail saw him, disbelief spread across her face.Dominic smiled. "Won't you invite me in?"Only then did Abigail come back to her senses. Flustered, she said, "Mr. Fleming, you… Please come in!"Dominic walked into the house, placed the gifts in a corner, and said, "Abby, something this serious happened. Why didn't you tell me?"Abigail had taken leave, but Dominic was the chairman, and HR had not informed him, so he had remained unaware. If he had not realized today t
Brian smiled. "There's also a special candidate. His background is extraordinary. He served in the special forces for five years and later retired due to injury. Even so, he's extremely capable. When he spars with Max, Max can't take him down quickly."Dominic raised an eyebrow. "That strong?""Yeah," Brian said. "So I reached out myself and offered him a monthly salary of 7,000 dollars. He'll work with Max, handling driving and personal protection for your daughter."As head of the security department, Brian had become busier, but he never lost sight of the need to protect the girl in secret.Hearing this, Dominic stood and patted his shoulder with a smile. "Brian, you've done well. This isn't acting on your own. This is clear judgment."Afterward, Dominic made a round of the company. He also took the opportunity to stop by Katherine's livestream room and spend some private time with her.Before he knew it, the afternoon had arrived.As he headed toward the restroom, his gaze d
Naturally, they had no money at the moment.Both sides went over the details, and before they realized it, noon had arrived.Dominic invited Andriana and Evan to lunch.Andriana wanted to be respectful, so she stayed.At the restaurant, she smiled and said, "Last time I was going to treat you, b
Jewel froze for a few seconds before anger surged through her. 'Fine. I gave you a way out, and now you think you're untouchable? Do you really think Andriana came all this way just to look at your face?'Jewel quickly realized that Andriana likely believed JewelMed met her personal standards, whic
In the days that followed, Dominic became extremely busy.Sometimes, he went out with Jewel. Other times, they split up and worked separately. Jewel inspected factories while he ran between banks.By the time August arrived, the weather had grown warmer.One afternoon, Dominic walked out of a ban
Seeing Dominic's cold smile, Jewel felt irritation flare, but she restrained herself instead of lashing out.She took a deep breath, rose to her feet, and said, "Come to my office for a moment.""I'm not going." Dominic shook his head calmly and began packing his things.His attitude only fueled
