《She Chose Him, Now She Wants Me Back》全部章節：第 681 章 - 第 690 章

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

"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

As soon as the host finished speaking, someone impatiently called out a bid."90,000,000 dollars!"Before the host could respond, Dominic spoke in a deep voice. "500,000,000 dollars."The entire venue erupted.Nearly 200 companies were present, and most had total valuations below 200,000,000 dollars. Dominic's opening bid of 500,000,000 stunned the crowd.However, those seated in the first two rows showed no change in expression. They understood the value of Cosmos No. 2.The host immediately grew animated. "Mr. Fleming of the JewelMed Group bids 500,000,000 dollars! It seems he is extremely optimistic about the prospects of Cosmos No. 2!"The atmosphere grew lively as quiet discussions spread through the room.Less than half a minute later, another voice entered the bidding.Stephen spoke calmly. "600,000,000 dollars."Dominic stiffened and turned sharply toward him, but Stephen only offered a faint, composed smile.Dominic frowned.Elijah, seated beside him, observed ever

Dominic looked at Oliver, who had appeared out of nowhere like a savior, and his lip twitched.Oliver walked over, patted his shoulder, and said with a smile, "I know what you're trying to do. Don't worry. Just keep bidding. You don't need to stress about the money. With me here, the Sinclairs are your strongest support."Dominic stared at him in disbelief. 'Oliver, what on earth are you doing? You don't actually think you look cool, do you?'Just as the plan had been finalized, an enemy had emerged from within. Dominic was now caught in a bind. If he raised the price, there was a chance Elijah might give up, which would mean missing the opportunity.If he did not raise it, Elijah would certainly suspect something was wrong. Even if Elijah won the bid for White Cosmos No. 2, if he failed to pay or honor the contract in the end, no one could truly hold him accountable.Oliver's arrival left Dominic in a difficult position.However, Oliver did not see it that way. He noticed Domini

After the results were announced, anyone could see that Dominic's expression had turned grim.It was understandable. He had already tasted the success of White Cosmos No. 1 and had set his sights on securing Blue Cosmos No. 2.Unlike Dominic, who was weighed down by disappointment, Elijah, standing not far away, was all smiles.A crowd gathered around him, offering congratulations one after another."Congratulations, Mr. Grant, on securing Cosmos No. 2!""With Cosmos No. 2 in hand, the Grant Group is bound to reach another level."…Elijah could barely contain his grin. His gaze swept through the crowd and landed on Dominic, and the sight of his expression only deepened Elijah's sense of triumph.Dominic let out a cold snort, rose to his feet, and strode out of the banquet hall.Once outside the Grand Skyline Hotel, he took out a cigarette and lit it, his expression deliberately somber.He had to look that way. Otherwise, he might not be able to stop himself from laughing out
