Chapter 109
Sometimes, one only needed to give in. No matter how complicated the problem was, it would eventually be realved.
Vespers had no doubt that Dominic could make her problem go away. After all, he was Dominic.
Being protected by someone powerful like Dominic made Vespera feel as if she had just scored a ticket to a safe house during the apocalypse
But Vespera wondered if Dominic was being too good to her. Even if he enjoyed helping others, even if she did make a significant contribution during the branch Inspection, even If he said he would take care of her.
Hold up!
Vespera’s cheeks heated instantly,
Rebecca’s teasing remarks and Dominic’s cryptic words last night kept replaying in Vespera’s mind. The more she thought about them, the more overwhelmed she
was.
Dominic waited for a long time, but did not hear her answer. “Still haven’t made up your mind?”
I appreciate your kindness, but I’ll handle my own lasues! Thank you! See you soon!” After blurting that out in a hurry, she ended the call.
Dominic seemed pensive as he moved his phone away. Within a moment, he seemed to have understood something, and his eyes darkened.
Meanwhile, Vespera had held her phone for at least five minutes before she was able to calm her cacing heart.
Wespera pondered carefully over Dominic’s behavior. Although he was very good to lier, nothing about his actions suggested that he was interested in her.

Reberra folded her arms across her chest as she paced back and forth in front of the couch. “If Felicia can host a press conference, so can we!
“The evidence we have is much better than what she has! But if we do this, you’ll be burning bridges with Luke for good.”
Vespera’s gaze gradually tumedley. “The Sowles never thought of that either.”
Rebecca sat on the couch. “What I’m trying to say is Loke might not even be aware of the press conference. No matter what, he has no reason to ruin this. After all, you guys did share the best eight years of your lives together….
Vesperaetorted, “So, he didn’t do it. That doesn’t mean he wasn’t responsible for the consequences today.
“It’s Lot like I want to bum badges with Luke. If he had agreed to an amicable divorce, all these issues wouldn’t have happened.
“Thanks to Luke, Tina, Felicia, and I were forced to make our own inves to protect ourselveg. Don’t you think he should be responsible for the consequences?” Rebecca becaune silent. After a moment, she nodded. “Alright, let’s fight back! We’ll go all the way. As your divorce attomey and childhood friend, I’ll represent you.”
