“I thought I was seeing things, but witnessing Mr. Sinclair show such deep affection is truly rare.”
Laura spoke icily. “Back then, for another woman, you killed your own child. You were capable of such a wicked act, and now you pretend to be
affectionate?
“Today, I intend to expose the heinous deeds you two have committed for all to seel”
Dominick raised his hand to cover Lola’s ears, trying his best to shield her from any influences.
“Shut up!
“Our affairs are not for you to judge. I’ve respected you for the kindness you once showed me, calling you ‘mother‘ for so many years. But don’t blame me for being heartless if you try to hurt Lolal”
Laura burst into laughter, “Don’t you find it ridiculous to say that?
“What connection could possibly exist between us? You’re not my son. I’ve only ever had one son, Landon!
“I raised you just for show. As long as I took good care of you, making you into an ambitionless nobody, my son and his status would not be threatened!”
Her face twisted into a grimace. “But I never expected you and that wretch Jessica to conspire behind my back, plotting against my son. Well, don’t blame me for being ruthless!”

Laura was always smiling around h
Sometimes, he saw Landon make a mistake and get scolded by Laura, who would then secretly wipe away tears. He felt envious.

“I never intended to vie for control of the Sinclair Group. After all these years, you still haven’t truly understood me.” His tone was indifferent. He just simply stated facts without any emotion.
“Nonsense!”
This was the first time Laura, always gentle and elegant, used such harsh words.
Her eyes reddened, her body shaking, she exclaimed, “If you truly respected Landon, how could you cover his woman? If you were not interested in the Sinclair Group, why did you develop it so rapidly in just a few years?
“You’ve been eyeing how to manage the company. You wanted to outdo Landon, so after taking over, you quickly improved the company to prove to everyone that Landon is inferior. You’ve succeeded!”
Dominick never expected that Laura would see his respect for Landon as an ulterior motive.
“Do you really think the Sinclair Group represents all my strength?”
Dominick’s expression darkened. He gently helped Lola to a seat before stepping forward, not moving too far from her.
“Taking over the Sinclair Group was out of sentiment. Do you think i hold any affection for this cold and heartless family?

“You already agreed to marry Jessica, and now you’re backing out. How is she supposed to marry anyone else now? How will you take responsibility for her reputation? You can’t pull your funding. Think of it as compensation for Jessical”
Dominick had never heard such shameless words before. Today, she was stunned by those words!
“Compensation?
“Should I also seek compensation for the harm she did to Lola? if that’s the case, let’s settle everything once and for all
“Jessica schemed to make me believe Lola was responsible for harming Landon’s child. How should she compensate for that? Such malice, not even her life would be enough to make it up to Lola!”

But she never expected Dominick to risk his life to protect Lola.
She had lost.
She had truly lost.
Jessica collapsed to the ground, tears falling uncontrollably. “You’re crazy Dominick, You’d really crazy. You don’t care about your own life!”
Ethan had also intended to protect Lola, but he hadn’t anticipated Dominick acting faster, even disregarding his own safety…
With a complex look, he said, “You.”
I’m okay”
“Don’t worry. I’m okay.” Dominick softened his harsh gaze, speaking in the gentlest tone.
Ethan paused slightly, realizing those words weren’t saying to him.
