Dominic povMy handsome face showed no signs of emotion, my voice calm and collected, a trait typical of someone in a position of power. "Achiever's foundation is too shallow. Although it has some recognition among niche brands, it has stagnated for the past three years and isn't suitable as a partner."Marvis styles chuckled, "I remember you were keen on poaching Achiever's designer, Mieli, for Vyx. What changed your mind?""Mieli's style is indeed refreshing, but a designer who hasn't produced any work in three years is clearly out of ideas and lacks commercial value. Are we supposed to bring her in just to retire?" I replied.Marvis joked, "Well, you could bring her in as a junior. I hear that mysterious Miss Mieli is young and beautiful. Aren't you about to get divorced? Maybe you should consider it."A cold glint flashed in my eyes. "Marvis styles, Brian's birthday is in a few days. Do you want me to tell him about your little schemes?"Marvis immediately backtracked, "Dominic, I

Chapter twelve

Nellie povI felt as if I had just been slapped hard across the face, standing there in shock for a moment before I could react. I forced myself to hold back tears and tried to maintain a casual demeanor as I distanced myself from Dominic Blackwood . "Sorry, Mr. Blackwood , didn't mean to interrupt your evening," I said, my voice steady.I had clearly overheard Scarlett Hayes discussing her date with him earlier. If it hadn't been for my outburst, they might have already sealed the deal.Dominic Blackwood slowly withdrew his gaze and turned away without looking back.I let out a self-deprecating laugh. He must be regretting ever meeting me, wishing he could put as much distance between us as possible.Scarlett Hayes stepped forward. "Vivian , why bother? A loss is a loss. Don’t lose face and dignity at the same time; at least give yourself a little cover."Facing Scarlett, I refused to show any signs of weakness. I brushed my slightly disheveled hair back and replied coldly, "Scarlett

Chapter thirteen

Vivian pov I calmly picked up the room key, offering no further explanation. Instead, I smiled seductively, "I’ll just take it as a compliment from you Scarlett, saying I have the charm to attract men. Unlike her, who has tried everything but still can’t get into Dominic Blackwood’s bed." Scarlett Hayes's face turned pale, her fingers nearly digging into her palm. Over the years, she had indeed used every trick sje could find, but Dominic Blackwood remained indifferent, making her question her own allure as a woman. However, she refused to lose to me. Swallowing her bitterness, she forced a smile, "Vivian Carter, to be honest, I’m already pregnant with Dominic’s child." When I had made the decision to divorce, I had forced myself to cut ties with Dominic Blackwood. But hearing this news, a sharp pain shot through my heart. I almost forgot that Scarlett Hayes had always been Dominic’s ideal woman. With such beauty by his side, how could he possibly remain faithful? After the spasm

Chapter fourteen

Vivianpov I felt an overwhelming sense of frustration wash over me. The connection I had once yearned for with Dominic Blackwood had come crashing back just when I was ready to let go of it all. But this kind of twisted fate was something I wanted no part of. To avoid any misunderstandings, I quickly stepped back and turned to leave, only to have my wrist firmly grasped by Dominic. His stern face was a mask of suppressed anger as he coldly said, "Vivian Carter, have you had enough of playing hard to get?" Not only had I engineered a "chance encounter" on the plane, but now I had tracked him down to the hotel he was staying at. It was clear that I had gone to great lengths just to see him. Even if I wasn't tired of the act, he was certainly tired of watching it unfold. My lips twitched in annoyance. I knew that Dominic, the jerk, viewed every unexpected meeting as my "scheming." I looked up at him, my expression serious. "DominicBlackwood , if I had known that the partner Marvis St

Chapter fifteen

Vivian pov Before me stood Dominic Blackwood, completely stripped of his usual depth and elegance. He looked like a wolf. One that could tear me apart, chew me up, and leave no bones behind. When I woke up, my throat was hoarse, and my waist felt as if it had been broken. The air was thick with the remnants of last night, and the room was a mess that hadn’t been cleaned up yet. I endured the discomfort in my body as I sat up, only to realize that the clothes on the floor had been shredded into pieces, leaving me with nothing to wear. In the three years of our marriage, Dominic had never shown me any tenderness. After all, he had no reason to care about the feelings of someone he saw as merely a tool. I had grown accustomed to his dominance and brutality, yet last night’s events left me feeling utterly humiliated. We had clearly decided to divorce; how could he still insult me at the slightest provocation? Hearing movement in the room, Dominic extinguished his cigarette and walke

Chapter sixteen

Vivian pov.Marvis Style wanted to laugh, but the moment he saw Dominic Blackwood's tense expression, he quickly suppressed the smile at the corners of his lips.Before Marvis could usher him out, Dominic stood up and said, "I won't disturb you any longer, Marvis."As he brushed past me, he almost ground his teeth and said, "You better keep your little tricks to yourself and not embarrass me."I gave a cold smile. I knew that Dominic didn't genuinely care about my reputation; to him, I was merely an extension of himself, and others had no right to interfere.He had set strict rules for me while secretly communicating with Scarlett Hayes. What gave him the right?Marvis's gaze swept over the two of us, and once Dominic had left, he pretended to probe, "Vivian, do you know him?"I replied curtly, "No."Marvis chuckled. This couple was quite amusing. One came early in the morning to negotiate for his woman, while the other treated the other like air.But that was our business, and he did

Chapter seventeen

Vivian pov.Dominic Blackwood shot a cold glance at Marvis Style, his eyes sharp like a knife.Marvis was used to it by now. "Dominic, if you still like her, then go after her. When a woman keeps talking about divorce, she just wants a man to focus on her."Anger surged in Dominic's chest. Women were as elusive as needles in the ocean; I used to be all about him, and now I was with James Scott.Did I think he would still want me?He replied icily, "I'd rather choose to like a dog than Vivian Carter."At least a dog would be more obedient. He hated trouble, but I had been pushing his buttons time and again lately.I had turned back halfway, realizing I had left the backup of my bid proposal in Marvis's office. As I rounded the corner, I overheard Dominic’s words.Even though I had already given up on Dominic, hearing his cold mockery still stung my heart.So, all my hard work managing everything for the Blackwood family wasn’t even as appreciated as a dog.Feeling deflated, I lost the

Chapter eighteen

Vivian’s POVMy heart raced, almost bursting from my chest, as my blood felt like it was flowing backward. Faced with Dominic Blackwood's aggressive demeanor, I suddenly smiled and said, "Dominic, he is your son." Dominic Blackwood suddenly gripped my chin tightly, his eyes filled with cold fury. "Do you think I'm easy to fool, or do you believe you deserve to bear the heir of the Blackwood family?" My heart felt like it had been stabbed again. Dominic always knew how to hit me where it hurt. He had never cared for me, so he would never let me get pregnant. Every time we were together, he took all the necessary precautions. Margaret Blackwood had also secretly added excessive saffron to my soups to prevent me from conceiving. Dominic likely knew about this, and his silence was a tacit approval of Margaret's actions. Perhaps if it weren't for the silent cooperation between the mother and son, my second child would not have been lost. What I longed for had become a source of pride for S

Chapter nineteen

Dominic’s POVThe moment Jimmy stepped into the bathroom, he sent a message to Vivian Carter, telling her to wait for him at the hotel; he would be there shortly. Vivian knew her son was different. He always meant what he said. James Smith joked, "Aren't you worried someone might kidnap your little genius?" Vivian replied calmly, "As long as he doesn't get into trouble, I’ll be grateful. Who would dare mess with this little troublemaker?" James couldn't help but comment, "I have to admit, Dominic Blackwood's genes are impressive. Just look at how smart and clever your son is." Vivian couldn't deny that. Jimmy had shown intelligence beyond his peers since he was little and had an extraordinary talent for hacking. To this day, he was the youngest hacker champion on the dark web. But Jimmy was her son alone, and she would hide him in a place where Dominic Blackwood would never find him. I despised him, and the Blackwood family viewed her as worthless. If they knew about Jimmy's existence

Chapter twenty

Dominic’s POVThe BM project had been managed by me for over half a year, and just as it was about to kick off, a staggering three billion disappeared without a trace. Although the Blackwood family's financial strength meant that this amount wouldn't cripple us, three billion was still no small sum. I needed to track down the missing funds as soon as possible. That night, I notified Ethan brooks to pack his bags and prepare to leave immediately. Ethan instinctively asked, "Dominic, should we send someone to keep an eye on Vivian?" My handsome face turned icy. "If she wants to act foolishly, then let her." Lately, she had repeatedly tested my limits, and I had lost all patience. "Dominic, maybe Vivian is just trying to see how important she is to you." I scoffed, "She's miscalculated. Even if I cared for a dog, it wouldn't be her!" When we got married, I had made my stance clear. She just needed to play her role as Mrs. Blackwood and not indulge in unrealistic fantasies. I never expect
