"I won't even bring you into this, but I still need to settle the score with Jessica properly! What she did to me last time isn't over yet!"Isabella still remembered that day on the rooftop of the abandoned building with painful clarity. The overwhelming terror she had felt after learning she had slept with another man was something she never wanted to experience again for the rest of her life.A glint flickered through Katherine's eyes as she smiled and said, "Come on, stop talking tough. Her status is what it is. You can't beat her."Isabella ground her teeth. "I can't beat her?"After a moment, she narrowed her eyes suspiciously. "Katherine, I feel like you're trying to stir things up."Katherine's heart skipped a beat, but her expression remained calm. "You're imagining things. I'm just being objective."Isabella sneered, "Whatever your motive is, it does
When Isabella saw the two of them fooling around, a flicker of jealousy crossed her face, and she tugged on Dominic's arm. "Honey, I want my fortune told too!"Dominic waved his hands in surrender. "We're still doing this?"He had no interest in getting beaten up again, so he quickly herded everyone toward the food street.To them, the fortune teller from earlier was nothing more than a brief interruption.After that, the group ate their way through the food street.Lilith picked out most of the snacks, but her little stomach could only handle a few bites, so the leftovers ultimately ended up in Dominic and Katherine's stomachs.As for Isabella, she wanted to take off her mask while eating, but Dominic firmly refused. Left with no other choice, she ate little by little with a resentful look on her face.…By nighttime, Dominic finally had a chance to relax since he did not have to cook for once. He sat on the couch and scrolled through his phone.Then Isabella slowly walked ov
Those words immediately caught their attention.Dominic glanced over and frowned. "Are you talking to us?"An old man sat by the roadside. He was clearly advanced in age. His hair was completely white, and a matching beard covered most of his face.Dressed in a black robe, he sat there empty-handed, giving off a distinctly strange impression.The old man pointed at Isabella and spoke in a slightly hoarse voice. "Ma'am, there's something unusual about your future. I can see it in your face. Would you like me to do a reading for you?"Katherine's eyes immediately filled with caution. She stepped in front of Isabella and said coldly, "What nonsense are you talking about? My sister is wearing a mask. You can't even see her face, so how would you know there's anything unusual about her?"The old man chuckled softly. "The brilliance of the stars... a mask and hat cannot conceal it."The moment Dominic heard those words, his eyes sharpened. He slowly crouched down and stared directly a
Although Stephen was using this tactic to provoke Dominic, the Hughes family knew nothing about it. If Dominic failed to show up when the time came, Autumn truly had no idea how everything would end.Dominic fell silent for a moment before finally saying, "Alright."Only after hearing his agreement did Autumn break into tears of joy.After hanging up, Dominic stared at his phone with a helpless expression.It wasn't that he refused to help her, but what role was he even supposed to play when he got there? More importantly, what the hell was Stephen thinking?There were still three days left. He would deal with it when the time came.…In the blink of an eye, afternoon arrived.Dominic got off work with Katherine and headed to pick up Lilith.But when they reached the school entrance, they spotted a familiar figure. Even beneath the hat and mask, Dominic recognized her instantly.'Isabella snuck out again?' he thought.The moment Isabella saw the old Audi pull up, her eyes li
"Autumn's getting engaged? She didn't tell you?" Jewel asked, her tone strange.Dominic's heart tightened, and an indescribable feeling rose inside him. He forced a smile. "When did this happen? She never told me.""Oh..." Jewel noticed the change in his expression and immediately regretted bringing it up. After a moment of hesitation, she added, "It's the Hughes family. I heard they're going to the Garcias in three days to formally propose.""A formal proposal..." Dominic murmured.After a long silence, he let out a quiet sigh. "Alright. I understand."Jewel studied him carefully. "Dominic, did something happen between you and Autumn? If there's some misunderstanding, I think you should clear it up. Autumn and Benedict don't really have that kind of relationship."Dominic fell silent for a moment before replying, "I know."Jewel nodded, then left the office.After she walked out, Dominic remained seated at his desk, lost in thought.Only the sound of his phone ringing pulled
Unfortunately, the woman made no move and simply left.Dominic let out a bored sigh.Not long after, Jewel hurried into the office."Dominic, there was a really beautiful woman looking for you just now. What's going on?" Jewel asked bluntly."Beautiful? Not really," Dominic replied.In terms of looks alone, both Isabella and Katherine were prettier than that woman.For some reason, Jewel quietly felt relieved. She had seen the woman earlier. Purely in terms of appearance, Jewel did not think the woman was overwhelmingly prettier than she was, but the woman's aura felt almost unreal. It carried a fatal kind of attraction for men.Almost out of territorial instinct, Jewel found herself subconsciously hostile toward her.'As for Katherine... forget it.' Jewel still had enough self-awareness for that.She had actually thought about it at home before. In the end, the word mistress had somehow surfaced in her mind. The key point was that she did not seem particularly resistant to th
Dominic glanced at her.Wendy's cheeks were faintly flushed, her expression shy and embarrassed. She had wanted to say boyfriend just now, but she did not quite dare.Her grandmother beamed and hurried them along. "Come inside, Dominic. I'll get you something to eat."Dominic waved his hands in q
Dominic frowned and asked, "Where are they?""Lily's asleep in Katherine's room, and Jessica went back to hers.""Then you should go to sleep too," Dominic said."I don't want to!" Isabella's voice carried a sharp edge of agitation.She bit her lip and suddenly flipped over, pinning him beneath
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
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
