With that, Carissa retrieved her phone and dialed Brett's number."Carissa, why the early call?" Brett asked groggily, appearing as though he had just been roused from sleep by her ring."Uncle, I need your assistance with something.""What's the matter? Why the urgency?" Brett sat up in bed, clutching his phone in one hand and searching through his scattered clothes with the other, trying to locate the outfit he had carelessly tossed aside the day before."I've heard about a potential collaboration between Hanhover Company and Hcorp. Can you help me uncover the nature of this collaboration and determine Dominic's next move?""Looking into business matters?" Brett was now fully alert.Carissa had never previously requested his help in delving into the contracts and secrets of others. Was her situation truly dire now?"Carissa, be honest with me. Are you facing difficulties right now? If things worsen, remember you always have the option to return and inherit your father's estate. Our

"Ah!" Carissa cried out as she fought desperately. Her mind raced with fear, consumed by a blank terror that drove her to escape Xavier's sinister hold at any cost. Discomfort overwhelmed her as she longed to break free."Miss Carissa, you have a nice figure, but compared to Kathy, you fall a bit short," Xavier's voice rumbled in her ear as she struggled in vain against his grasp."Your breasts are like flat boards, no wonder Dominic chose Kathy over you and left you. You deserve it," Xavier's cruel words pierced her as she squirmed helplessly in his arms, her chest heaving with agitation.Frustrated and panicked, she demanded, "Xavier, what are you planning to do? Release me!""You know best what I intend to do. Otherwise, you wouldn't have opened the window on the 21st floor and called for help," Xavier remarked with a sneer, looking at Carissa.Carissa shot Xavier a glare. "I advise you not to play games, or I will jump from the top of this building! I'd rather die than endure hum

"Tap, tap, tap."After the soft sound of a tap on the door, Kathy witnessed Dominic pushing it open."Dominic?" Kathy looked at him quizzically and inquired, "Is there something you need?"Having only recently met, Kathy wondered why Dominic had returned so soon."Kathy, do you have the time?" Dominic asked.Checking the time on the computer screen's lower right corner, Kathy saw that it was 9:30."It's already half past nine!" Kathy exclaimed in surprise. She had been laboring over the simple contract for so long; what had happened?Noticing Kathy's incredulous expression, Dominic smiled apologetically and suggested, "Shall we head home? I didn't want to disturb you earlier when I saw you working diligently, but now I'm really hungry."Dominic patted his growling stomach and shrugged playfully at Kathy."Wait for me just a moment! I'll be finished soon!" Kathy swiftly engaged her focus, and her typing speed seemed to double, leaving Dominic a bit disoriented.Thirty minutes later, Ka

Dominic was taken aback by Kathy's words, then witnessed her lifting her head and offering him a gentle smile. The smile that reached her eyes caused Dominic's heart to flutter slightly, and his breath seemed to pause at that moment."Dominic, life is all about looking forward, and longing for the good things in life is the essence of living, isn't it?" Living through a different life had made Kathy even more aware of her mission in this current life.Revenge and hatred were crucial; they were deeply ingrained in her being and served as powerful driving forces for her to continue living. However, Dominic's sudden appearance gradually persuaded Kathy to accept him, starting from her initial surprise up to now.She had initially misjudged him, but there were still many good people in this world, individuals worth loving and cherishing.Dominic belonged to the category of good-hearted people."Kathy..." Dominic struggled to find the right words and could only softly utter her name."Have

Kathy's breath caught in her throat as she observed Dominic's strikingly enlarged facial features, deep-set eyes, long eyelashes, and captivating jade-like complexion."Don't stop breathing," Dominic whispered, sensing her momentary halt in breathing as he briefly paused their kiss.Gasping for air unconsciously, Kathy felt the tightness in her chest subsides somewhat.Dominic chuckled, releasing Kathy from his embrace and sitting upright in the driver's seat as though nothing had happened just moments ago."I didn't expect you, Dominic, to be so shameless. First, you left me in the car to meet your former lover, and now you're here flirting with me. What's your game?" Kathy asked with a tinge of disappointment and pity, touching her lips that Dominic had just kissed, between her thumb and forefinger.Dominic helplessly massaged his forehead and observed the traffic light at the intersection shift to yellow once more, swiftly retrieving something he had concealed in the back seat.In

Dominic lifted the lid of the small wooden box and revealed a tiny brown cushion inside. Resting on it was a shiny wooden circle, about the size of his finger.Carefully, he picked up the small circle and placed it on his ring finger, where it fit slightly loose. "Not on the ring finger. Why not try the middle finger?" Kathy whispered as she observed Dominic struggling with the loose fit.Without hesitation, Dominic placed the box on the coffee table and handed the loose circle to Kathy."Why? Don't you like it after all?" Kathy's heart sank as she heard Dominic's words, realizing her impulsive nature had caused this."No, Kathy, I like it. Can you help me put it on?" Dominic looked at Kathy with a passionate gaze, his tone soft and expectant.Kathy avoided making eye contact with Dominic and glanced to the side, nodding silently. "Alright. Give me your hand."Dominic extended his left hand, his five slender fingers resembling green bamboo, awaiting Kathy's touch and choice.Taking t

Kathy found herself slightly bewildered, her gaze fixed on Dominic as he knelt before her."Kathy?" Dominic's voice broke the silence, as he observed her vacant stare, prompting him to reach out to her.Returning to the present moment, Kathy looked down at Dominic with a distant expression, her eyes reflecting a storm of emotions, her breathing heavy.Without rushing her, Dominic remained on one knee, patiently awaiting Kathy's response."Are you okay? Your knee must be hurting," Kathy said, snapping back to reality, as she crouched down to assist Dominic.Lifting the key in his hand, Dominic held it up to meet Kathy's eyes, gazing at her affectionately as he whispered, "Kathy, would you like to be more than just a girlfriend in name?"Kathy hesitated, biting her lip, her chest rising and falling with emotion until finally, after a pause, she broke into a smile."Alright, we're a couple now."Dominic was taken aback, having braced himself for rejection from Kathy.The sudden rush of h

Tristan carelessly sprayed a mouthful of water onto the file in front of him while not paying attention. Hastily rising from his seat, he reached for a few tissues to blot the dampened papers. Maricela simply stood there, observing the mishap unfold before her eyes.Frustrated, Tristan shook his head and tossed the wet tissue into the trash can. He then turned to Maricela with a smile and suggested, "Let's skip lunch; I've been swamped with work recently."Despite Tristan's smile, Maricela sensed a lack of sincerity in his words, which irked her slightly. She had approached him earlier with a humble invitation to have lunch together, only to be turned down."Tristan, I've told you before that if you ever face any challenges at work or in life, you can always turn to me. You don't need to treat me to lunch," Maricela said, forcing a smile."It's fine. If you're busy, then never mind," she added before promptly leaving, her destination unknown.After Maricela departed, Tristan's colleag

"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
