Observing his grin, Kathy suddenly recalled his ambiguous behavior earlier in the car. She blushed momentarily but couldn't contain her impatience.

"This soup is scorching hot, and it's tiring to hold. Are you going to drink it or not?"

Upon hearing this, Dominic swiftly took the spicy soup from Kathy's hand.

"Damn…I was so engrossed in our conversation that I completely overlooked the soup in your hand."

Only after receiving the bowl of soup did Dominic realize how hot it was! Hastily entering the room and placing it on the table, Dominic pulled Kathy closer.

"Let me see your hands," Dominic furrowed his brow with worry as he spoke to Kathy.

Kathy pulled her hand back and shook her head.

"Why are you looking at my hand? Are you trying to take advantage of me?"

Dominic chuckled in exasperation at Kathy's words.

    While Dominic was engrossed in sipping his soup, Kathy was struck by a sudden, shocking idea - how wonderful it would be if she could always prepare food for him. The notion frightened her, and she set down her bowl. Why would she think like that so suddenly? “Are you alright? Is something wrong?” Dominic noticed her abrupt stillness and inquired. Kathy's heart raced at his concern. One moment he was formal and strict with work, the next, he appeared so kind and attentive. She felt as though she couldn't catch her breath. "Oh, I'm fine, just my head hurts a bit," she replied. Dominic let out a deep sigh. “You should take some time off from work. I'm afraid you might fall if you keep pushing yourself too hard.” He advised and she turned to look at him.He rummaged through the item shelf and eventually set a box of plastic gloves in front of her. “What are these for?” Kathy asked.“These are protective gloves. Your hand is hurt so you can't get it wet until it heals. These might

Observing everyone's attention on her, she proudly remarked;"It's one thing for the boss to take Kathy to a kid's party, but I heard that he also took her to a private parlor party yesterday."As regular office workers, they were unfamiliar with the concept of a private party and gazed at Maricela with astonishment. "Can it be that you don't even know what a private parlor party is?" Maricela widened her eyes and regarded each of them as if they were unsophisticated individuals.They shook their heads, and Dwight groaned impatiently."Stop skirting around the issue, Maricela, just tell us.""If you must know, a private party is distinct from a typical party. The attendees are individuals with significant connections in the business world. Many substantial transactions and important clients are secured through these private meetings.

    Observing her for a moment, Dominic was suddenly amused, and he couldn't tell why. A deep chuckle came from him as he watched her keenly. Kathy set down her glass and regarded Dominic with a puzzled expression."What's so funny?"Dominic shook his head once with a smile. The restaurant's romantic lights dimly illuminated his visage, his hand half-fisted in front of his mouth, propping up his flawless chin, while his shoulders quivered as he chuckled again."I just find it intriguing that Miss Kathy still exudes a touch of sassiness." He raised an eyebrow with a smirk.Kathy blushed under the warm light and attempted to conceal it by taking a sip of juice, only to discover that her glass was already empty, causing Dominic to laugh even harder.***Following work, Maricela opted not to accompany her relative home, instead arranging to go out with her good friend Estela.

    The lights in the living room had been switched off, and the window stood open. The glow from the outdoor standing lamp seeped through the window, creating a chilly silhouette on Dominic's face and reflecting in his deep, dark eyes. Kathy couldn't help but feel like she was gazing at her reflection, and no one else's.Leaning against the door, Dominic held Kathy tightly in his embrace. The pressure made her feel as if she were being smothered."Dominic, are you awake? Do you have a headache? Are you hungry?" Kathy sensed that something was amiss with Dominic's current state, so she cautiously inquired.Dominic's warm breath brushed against her face, bringing them closer once again. He closely examined the person in front of him and eventually nodded."I'm not intoxicated. Would you like to stargaze with me?""What stars?"

    "Dominic! Wake up! Stop being so carried away...!" Kathy repeatedly tapped Dominic's shoulder, but he appeared oblivious to her efforts and seemed impervious to any pain. He simply gazed at Kathy in silence.Dominic's eyes shimmered, full of light and remorse in a way that she could not understand, causing Kathy to feel a mix of fear and a sense of injustice. Despite his flaws, he had never pushed himself this way or rebelled against himself like he was doing now.This realization left Kathy feeling deeply wronged, and tears welled up in her eyes as she gazed at Dominic's familiar yet strangely distant expression."Why? Why are you crying?" Dominic's heart ached at the sight of Kathy's tears. Gently, his thumbs traced her face as he affectionately wiped them."Dominic, you should be ashamed!" Kathy's tears streamed down her face like a river, her sobs growing louder and more intense.Feeling somewhat powerless, Dominic cupped her face and pressed a deep, wet kid on her left cheek. Th

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.

"Will it cause any trouble for Wilson?""Are you worried about 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.

    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

    "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.

    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
