Reborn to Love and Luxury. Chapter fifty seven
"S…sir?”Abigail's eyes widened in disbelief as she exclaimed in astonishment. Feeling the person behind her come to a stop, Phoebe turned around unsteadily, only to find herself staring at another tall figure, causing a surge of anger to well up within her."Who are you? Why are you blocking..." she began before she was interrupted.Upon catching a glimpse of the man's face in the dim light, Phoebe trailed off, swallowing the rest of her words.“B…boss?" she stuttered, echoing Abigail's earlier shock.Dominic smiled."Are you surprised to see me?"Abigail and Phoebe remained tense, thankful for the dim light that veiled their embarrassed expressions. Otherwise, their awkwardness might have led them to burst into laughter."Are you sitting there?" Dominic inquired, to which Abigail gestured towards a spot."Over there. Would you care to join us for a drink?"It was a mere polite gesture, as Abigail assumed Dominic had brought a client to the club. However, she was taken aback when Do

The drinks were nearly finished, the gossip was almost fully circulated, and the patrons were preparing to depart from the bar. "Boss, why are you leaving? Shall I arrange a car for you?" Abigail, with a dreamy look in her eyes, asked.Dominic subtly grinned, maintaining a serious façade. "I'll have Kathy come pick me up." The crowd momentarily erupted in cheers. "Boss, you and Kathy have such a wonderful relationship!" The crowd erupted excitedly.Abigail envisioned Kathy's beautiful married life with the handsome and caring CEO as her husband. Glancing at Phoebe as she went to refill her glass, Abigail felt a sense of warmth in her heart, appreciating the grace of such a refined lady. It appeared that the wine was starting to get to her.***At midnight, Kathy had already drifted off to sleep, yet her slumber was plagued with restlessness. She couldn't shake the feeling that Xavier's sudden bankruptcy was far from straightforward. Not bankrupt in the early stages, nor the final

As the days went by, Kathy's work progressed smoothly. She had obtained Dominic's approval and agreement on the plans for Spark and Nexus. Despite Kathy's assurance of her unwavering loyalty, she couldn't comprehend why Dominic still appeared apprehensive about her proposal. Was it possible that he was simply overly suspicious?Kathy was well-acquainted with the leaders of Spark and Nexus. The head of Spark Tech, Mr. Ian, was a dedicated fan of Marvel, particularly Spider-Man and Venom, as evidenced by his collection of Marvel superhero figurines. On the other hand, Mr. Carlisle, the boss of Nexus, although young, had a penchant for operas and often delved into discussions about concepts like "hidden greatness in the world," which tended to befuddle others. Despite their quirks, the names of their respective companies were undeniably memorable.Kathy found it relatively straightforward to interact with individuals of such a nature. Today marked the agreed-upon meeting day, set for 12:

"What?" Ian's question was cut short, leaving him disgruntled. He couldn't understand why Xavier had suddenly shown up since they had been invited by Carissa on behalf of TI.The situation was still unclear. Ian's reluctance to accept Kathy's invitation stemmed from her past collaboration with Harvard, which had recently gone bankrupt. Despite this, Kathy now wanted to discuss working together once more.They assumed that if they declined Kathy's offer, she would persist in collaborating, so they delayed their decision to observe the unfolding events. To their surprise, Xavier unexpectedly appeared, seemingly seeking attention and recognition."Xavier, didn't your company go under? Our contract just ended. Are you declaring bankruptcy simply to dodge paying the penalty for breaching the contract?" Carlisle lifted his eyelids and confronted Xavier directly.Xavier's expression soured, and Carissa, unwilling to defend him, spoke up, "I am the legal representative of TI. Today, I invite

Kathy sensed a shift in Dominic's tone, prompting her to furrow her brow and scrutinize him intently. He inhaled deeply and turned away to conceal his emotions from her gaze. Despite feeling unsettled, Kathy managed to utter a reluctant "Yes."Even as Dominic had anticipated her response, hearing Kathy confess it herself felt like a brutal revelation, as if his heart had been laid bare. "So, all those times I called you while intoxicated and you came to fetch me, was there an ulterior motive?" Dominic queried.Struggling for words, Kathy found herself speechless, grappling with an inner turmoil. In each instance, she could have declined, yet every time she found reasons to justify rescuing Dominic. Initially, it was due to his position as her superior. The subsequent times, however, lacked a clear rationale, leaving her hesitant to confront the truth."In every action, there lies an underlying intent," Kathy responded calmly, her words carrying a sense of resignation that didn't esca

Should Dominic consider giving himself a raise due to his busy schedule? Over the next few days, Kathy was tirelessly working. At times, the lights in her office remained on late into the night, a detail that did not escape Dominic's notice. Despite his suggestion for her to rest at home, she declined. Upon learning of Xavier's bankruptcy, Kathy made every effort to show resilience, even investing heavily in Spark and Nexus, two companies with limited short-term returns. Dominic allowed her to stay occupied to distract her from irrelevant matters. "Kathy, I've noticed the CEO's mood deteriorating recently. He doesn't even smile when you present your work. Have you two had another disagreement?" Abigail inquired with curiosity, her large eyes gleaming as they shared a meal.Kathy furrowed her brow and suppressed the words "It's not my place to say" that was on the tip of her tongue. Instead, she offered a helpless smile and remarked, "Just because he didn't smile at you, you think he h

Alexia felt a surge of happiness.Ecstatic about his upcoming return, she was indifferent to his partners as long as he could secure the cash.Her primary focus now was to impress him and make him open to spending money on her."Xavier, it's been a while since we last did this. I'm all set for you tonight..."Enthralled by Alexia's seductive eyes and enchanted by her sweet voice, Xavier's heart raced as he lifted her and headed toward the bedroom. "Why wait until tonight? A moment of passion is worth a thousand gold!"***Just as they approached the peak of their intimacy, Xavier suddenly exclaimed,"F…fuck! Kathy...!"Startled out of her reverie, Alexia looked at the man trembling in her arms in disbelief.“Why are you giving me that look?”Xavier was clueless about his recent actions.Clutching the bed sheets tightly, Alexia forced a smile, shaking her head before throwing herself back into his embrace."It's nothing, Xavier. I love you the most. You must treat me well for the rest o

Kathy cast a subtle, ambiguous smile at Dominic before nodding graciously. Rising to his feet with a warm expression, Dominic offered Kathy the seat beside the window. Once settled, Kathy turned to Carissa who had a look of surprise on her face. "Miss Carissa, why are you still here? Would you care to join us for dinner?" Her invitation to Carissa was genuine and heartfelt, as the dinner with Dominic felt slightly awkward. Kathy had come to Downtown Bistro not for Dominic's company, but for the food and the assistance he offered her with work, culminating in the dinner invitation. With Carissa's presence, Dominic's attention was divided, allowing Kathy to enjoy her meal more comfortably.Despite Kathy's lingering disbelief that Dominic would suddenly be so kind as to help her with her work and invite her to dinner, her words unintentionally came across as provocative to Carissa and Dominic. "Dominic, I can't believe you brought Kathy to Downtown Bistro! This is where we always used

"I have no idea. Oh, by the way, I saw you at the Spring Festival Gala earlier," Kathy said, trying to please him. Dominic's face turned as dark as ink on the side."I've been to the Spring Festival Gala for three consecutive years," he said."I know!" Wilson's heart skipped a beat, his tone filled with excitement and joy that he tried to hide.Knowing that it was impossible between him and Kathy, and knowing that she had no interest in him, Wilson's heart still couldn't help but be stirred by her words."Didn't you mention it in your interview today?" Kathy asked."You watched my interview too?" Wilson couldn't help but laugh."They didn't change the channel all day," Dominic's cold voice came from beside Kathy, and then a handsome face that looked a lot like Wilson's was pressed against Kathy's cheek.This scene made Wilson's heart ache.Wilson forced a smile. "Brother, why are there so many people downstairs? What are they doing? The snow is so dirty, and they're just throwing it

"Auntie, don't worry, he won't dare to sue you." After making the phone call, Dominic walked into the living room, washed his hands in the kitchen, and then sat down at the table, picking up a piece of dough that had already been rolled out into a dumpling skin."Are you not going to wrap them?" Dominic noticed that he was the only one in the family with a relaxed expression, and curiously looked at the Thompson family's parents and Kathy.Kathy saw Dominic's relaxed expression and knew that he must have resolved the issue. "Will it cause any trouble for Wilson?""Are you worried about him?" Dominic instantly regretted calling Wilson.He thought that he could reassure the Thompson family's parents and make Kathy feel at ease, but this girl was worried about whether it would cause trouble for Wilson."No." Although Dominic repeatedly assured them that Wilson would not sue the Thompson family's parents over such a minor matter, Esme and Thompson's brows remained furrowed all night.Th

"Hey, I know, I know, we can't just blurt it out like this. What if we attract some paparazzi?" Naomi was about to leave when she caught sight of the big TV hanging on the wall of the Thompson family living room. She immediately pointed at the TV and exclaimed, "Isn't that him! The big star!"Now, everyone in the room looked at the TV, their eyes filled with curiosity.CL TV was playing an interview video of Wilson."This is already the third time that Wilson has been invited by the Spring Festival Gala program group. Do you have anything to say to the audience friends in front of the TV?"Wilson smiled gracefully, suppressing the kind of unruly air he had when he was with Kathy and others in private. "I hope this year's Wilson won't disappoint the audience friends and the Spring Festival Gala program group who invited me. I will work hard."As he spoke, Wilson even bowed to the camera, showing his politeness. His whole body exuded the aura of a noble young master, making people feel

Kathy didn't expect this, "You, you've been sleeping for so many days, how did you suddenly...""To be honest, I haven't been sleeping well these past few nights. When you were sleeping, you really liked to move around..." Dominic hadn't finished speaking when Kathy felt her legs go numb and she unconsciously moved them.The quietness in the air was the most frightening.Kathy's mind went blank.It seemed like she accidentally touched something hard— His manhood! "What are you moving for!" Dominic tightly controlled Kathy's struggling wrist, "Don't move, I'll go take a cold shower."Kathy, embarrassed, timidly looked at Dominic and nodded, "Okay, you can go."Dominic was choked by her words and couldn't catch his breath for a while, but eventually he bent down.Kathy quickly turned her head, revealing her long and white neck."Ah!" Kathy exclaimed, her eyes misty and watery, pitifully looking at Dominic, "Why did you bite me! It hurts!"Hearing the words that made him want to indulg

Kathy couldn't understand why Dominic was laughing so brightly at such a dangerous moment when they almost hit a dog. "Kathy, why do you look so pale?" Dominic turned his head and saw Kathy's worried face, as if she had just survived a disaster. Did what he said just now make her uncomfortable? Dominic was anxious and didn't know what was going on. "Kathy, if you mind, I won't say such things next time. Let's wait until we get married..." Dominic said. "Didn't you see the dog on the side of the road just now?" Kathy turned her head and looked at Dominic with an unkind expression. "I avoided it, didn't I?" Dominic felt wronged. Wasn't Kathy worried about the dog just now? "But why did you laugh so loudly after avoiding it? What if you hit it?" Kathy gave Dominic a white eye and turned her head to look out the window, giving Dominic a big slap on the back of his head. For no reason, Dominic smiled again with his mouth open. "Kathy, I'm really happy!" Kathy really didn't know what w

Dominic felt that at this moment, Kathy was emitting an indescribable radiance. A long time ago, he fell in love with Kathy. Now, he was having difficulty breathing, and Kathy had become the only tenderness and light he longed for in this world.Thompson and Esme never doubted their daughter's abilities. Since childhood, Kathy has always been the most outstanding one. No matter how difficult things were, as long as Kathy said she could do it, even if it meant risking her life, she would do it. Yes, although their family was not outstanding, they had such an outstanding daughter! As long as their daughter was excellent enough to not fear any challenges, then being in a relationship with Dominic didn't seem like such a difficult thing to accept.Although Thompson and Esme still had worries on their faces, their masks were no longer as indestructible as before. "Kathy, won't this be too hard for you?" Esme felt sorry for her daughter.Extraordinary Kathy was born into such an ordinary

"Mom, Dad, this is one of his business bank accounts, and it's also his account with the least amount of money." Thompson and Esme looked at it and were scared by the long string of numbers. Thompson took the phone from his daughter's hand in disbelief, stared at the string of numbers with wide eyes, and muttered to himself. "Have you counted it? How many digits is it?" "It seems to be nine digits..." "What do you mean 'seems to be'? How many digits exactly?" "Ten digits." Esme almost stumbled and couldn't stand firm. Thompson held her up and said, "Don't worry, my dear." "Oh my god, ten digits, tens of billions..." This is not even how it's portrayed in TV dramas. In an instant, Thompson and Esme panicked. Esme sighed and said to Kathy, "My dear, you must not be with him just for his money! The most important thing in a relationship is to live a good life together!" "Dominic, you've seen our family's situation. We are just ordinary working-class people, but

"Ah! Bus route 3! Quick!" Thompson turned his gaze away from the double doors of the restroom and saw the bus approaching in the distance. He quickly bumped Dominic's arm with his shoulder and they ran towards the bus station with their bags.Dominic, who had never experienced this before, didn't know what to do.Seeing Dominic still in a daze, Kathy switched all her bags to her right hand, grabbed Dominic's arm, and ran forward. "What are you thinking? Did Dalein give you a brainwashing attack!"Even if Dominic didn't know why The Thompson family was desperately running forward, he understood that all he could do now was to hurry up.After rushing, with the help of a kind driver, the Thompson family finally squeezed onto the bus.Dominic looked at the empty seats on the bus, his Adam's apple moved, he swallowed hard, and regained his senses.It seemed that he had just done something he had never done before. It felt quite novel.Kathy pulled Dominic to sit in the double seat at the

The family overcame many obstacles and finally arrived at the place where Thompson often bought clothes. The shop owner saw Thompson and immediately waved, "You're here again today?" "Yes, I'm here to buy some clothes for my son-in-law for the New Year! See if you have anything that fits him well, price is not a problem!" The shop owner was happy to hear this. In the past, Thompson always bargained hard and the shop owner didn't make much profit from selling him clothes. But today, Thompson couldn't lose face in front of his son-in-law, so he wouldn't bargain, which meant the shop owner could make a lot of money. When the shop owner saw Dominic, his eyes lit up. "Is your son-in-law a model? He's so handsome!" Thompson was quite proud when he heard this. "He's not a model, he's a CEO!" Esme couldn't help but poke Thompson twice and whispered, "Don't show off your wealth. Do you still want to bargain?"Thompson immediately realized his mistake and chuckled, "I was just kidding, he
