Chapter 8

Author: Axcellent
Isabella felt a wave of grievance as Dominic entered the living room without a word.

'I've already compromised. What more does he want from me?' she thought bitterly.

Dominic saw things differently. Even though Isabella had promised to keep her distance, the memory of her clinking glasses with Alexander lingered like a thorn in his throat. He couldn't spit it out, he couldn't swallow it, and it hurt all the same.

He slumped onto the sofa and scrolled aimlessly through reels on his phone, but

    "Andriana did mention it to me," Dominic said.He checked the time and realized it was already January 28.As the two discussed business, Autumn quietly sat on the couch and scrolled through her phone.Jewel said, "White Cosmos No. 1 is very stable right now. It depends on whether you want to contact Ms. Palmer and decide if Cosmos No. 2 should launch before spring break or after."There were only a little more than two weeks left before Mardi Gras. Dominic had already told Jewel that they would head to the capital after the holiday, and Jewel would be going with him.If JewelMed wanted to continue expanding, it absolutely needed to establish a foothold in the capital. That made a pre-Mardi Gras launch for Cosmos No. 2 the best option.After a moment's thought, Dominic called Andriana directly."Dominic, what timing. I was just about to call you!" Andriana sounded delighted.Dominic raised an eyebrow. "About Cosmos No. 2?""Yes!" Andriana said with a smile. "Are you at the com

    Dominic didn't say anything else. He rinsed off her hand, then ushered her out of the kitchen and muttered, "Looks like the Flemings need a new rule from now on. Women aren't allowed in the kitchen..."Autumn heard him and burst out laughing."You're still laughing?" Dominic snorted. "Tomorrow, I'm putting up a sign. The kitchen is my territory. Anyone who comes in gets their ass spanked, got it?"With that, he gave her a symbolic light spank.Autumn let out a startled yelp and glared at Dominic, her face flushed with embarrassment and annoyance.Grinning, Dominic shut the kitchen door.…Twenty minutes later, everyone had gathered in the dining room.Autumn pointed at Isabella's face and asked curiously, "Huh? What happened to you?"The bruises from last time had almost faded, yet now her left eye was black and blue again.Katherine wore an indifferent expression as she slowly ate her pancakes."Autumn, can you shut up already?!" Isabella snapped, glaring at her.Autumn wa

    Katherine had always carried a feeling deep down.As long as her little sister hadn't crossed an unforgivable line, there was no way her relationship with Dominic would ever truly be severed.People often said that a man's standing within his wife's family depended on the wife herself.Dominic held such a high position within the Sinclair family largely because of Isabella. Otherwise, let alone James and Oliver, even Katherine herself probably wouldn't have paid much attention to him.In the end, everything had begun because of Isabella....The next morning, Dominic woke up feeling refreshed."Honey, stay in bed with me a little longer!" Isabella's muffled voice drifted from beneath the blanket. She was clearly not fully awake yet, and her sleepy tone carried an endearing grogginess.At the same time, she reached out and wrapped an arm around Dominic.He immediately stiffened and said helplessly, "Isabella, stop fooling around. It's getting late. I need to make breakfast and

    Dominic had only taken a few steps forward when the person on the couch suddenly jolted awake. The moment she saw him, Isabella immediately asked, "Honey, why are you back so late?"Dominic took off his coat and smiled. "Didn't I tell you? I had some things to take care of. Why are you still awake?"Isabella huffed. "You went out so late at night. How was I supposed to sleep?"Dominic shook his head helplessly. "You never used to care this much about me."He hadn't given the comment much thought and had only said it in passing, but Isabella suddenly fell silent.In the darkness, her eyes seemed to glisten with tears.Dominic froze for a moment before walking over. "Why are you crying all of a sudden?""Honey..." Isabella's voice caught as she hugged his arm and sat down beside him on the couch.She leaned gently against his shoulder, her voice trembling with quiet sobs. "Was I... really that awful before?"Dominic remained silent for a few seconds before speaking. "It's all in

    When Dominic heard that, he immediately frowned. He had never expected Bastian to have such a terrifying organization hidden within it. From Nolan's description alone, the drug sounded even more horrifying than hard narcotics.Still, the organization wasn't completely lawless. It seemed to operate with a certain level of discipline. For example, if they wanted to control Jewel, the timing would have to be perfect. Only after she fully accepted Nolan, or even began living with him, would they consider making a move.As if sensing Dominic's doubts, Nolan quickly explained, "The organization doesn't want to attract too much attention. They need to make sure Jewel loses her ability to act without arousing suspicion from outsiders."Dominic sneered, "Or maybe if Jewel didn't survive it, you'd be able to dispose of the body quickly as the man sleeping with her?"Nolan silently nodded.Dominic understood immediately. 'Although the organization operates in the shadows, it still follows ce

    Having achieved his goal, Dominic pressed a hand onto Nolan's shoulder and began applying force. Under Dominic's interference, Nolan's soul slowly merged back into his body, inch by inch.Moments later, Nolan's corpse suddenly coughed up a large mouthful of water and opened his eyes. At that instant, his heart started beating again.Dominic smiled. "How does it feel to be alive?"Nolan stared at him blankly, seemingly unable to comprehend what had just happened.Then he raised his right hand. All five fingers were clearly intact, yet two of them had completely lost sensation. They were the exact two fingers Dominic had chopped off with the fire axe.Nolan's eyes widened as he looked at the fire axe in Dominic's hand, his pupils shrinking to pinpoints. Pure terror filled his face. Dominic frowned and waved a hand in front of him. "Enough spacing out. Your soul's back."Nolan's entire body trembled. He immediately blurted out, "Y-You... Ask whatever you want, and I'll tell you. I

    Lydia brushed her hair back from her forehead and smiled. "Actually, ever since you helped me last time, I've been wanting to find a chance to thank you."Dominic waved a hand. "It was nothing. Don't keep it in mind.""No way." Lydia smiled sweetly. "You may not think about it, but I've been keepi

    With a single sentence, Autumn reassessed the woman before her.Her gaze turned cold. "I've never had a boyfriend. That man is my cousin."Katherine gave a soft laugh. "Oh? So you're pretending to have a boyfriend?"The sarcasm in her voice was sharp enough to grate on anyone's nerves.Autumn re

    Yara lifted her head and stared at him without expression, remaining still for a long while.Dominic let out a quiet sigh, bent down, and helped her to her feet.She seemed to have no strength left. She could not even stand on her own and had to rely entirely on his support.Yara's gaze dropped t

    Isabella hurried to the passenger side and tugged at the door, but it was locked and would not budge.She blurted out at once, "Honey, unlock it. Hurry!"A horn blared from behind them, urging the car to move.With no choice, Dominic unlocked the doors.Isabella's face lit up. She discreetly gav
