Crossroads
Chapter 68
Chapter 68
In the past week, every time Stephanie passed by the study, her gaze lingered on the sturdy door, her expression complex as she yearned to
enter.
The old documents in the study fueled various speculations in her mind, yet she never had the opportunity to explore them.
Dominick was busy with the group’s 50th–anniversary celebration, and Vincent and the others frequently visited. They spent late hours in the study discussing matters.
“I didn’t attend the opening ceremony of the new company in Westerfield…”
They had just finished breakfast when Dominick’s phone began buzzing.
His face darkened upon receiving a report, his voice cold as he reprimanded. “You can’t even get such a simple task right!”
Stephanie couldn’t help but sneak a glance at him upon hearing the anger in his voice.
The company seemed to be facing some trouble. It was unusual for Dominick, who usually remained indifferent to business matters.
“Is it Wyatt and the others…” Even George, who was sitting in the middle of the sofa, raised his eyes and looked at him:
Dominick’s face showed a hint of anger, and he hung up the phone without answering George’s words.
“After all, they have been with the company for thirty years. Don’t go too far on this, George reminded vaguely.
With Dominick in charge of the company now, the retired George wouldn’t interfere too much.
Suddenly, George turned to Stephanie beside him. “Steffi, you’ve learned social dancing, haven’t you? Tonight is the Innovate Group’s 50th
dance…” anniversary gala, and you’re needed for the opening
“She won’t be going,” Dominick interjected coldly.
Stephanie faltered. A mix of emotions crossed her face as she lowered her head without protest.
The Innovate Group’s 50th–anniversary gala must be grand, with Dominick and his partner leading the first dance.
It was evident that his partner wasn’t her.
It should be Jessica.
After spending some time accompanying George, Stephanie retired to her bedroom.
She wasn’t intentionally paying attention to Jessica, but Jessica had recently posted a wedding photo from three years ago, quickly becoming the talk of the town.
It was because the man in the photo, with his stern profile, was presumed to be the renowned scion of the Wellington family, the CEO of the Innovate Group.
The media dared not report much about Dominick, so this time, Jessica took the initiative to post that photo, which was quite shocking to people. Some even speculated that Jessica had already married Dominick.
“No wonder she despises me so much,” Stephanie muttered as she sat on the bed and checked her phone. Then she lay down, staring at the ceiling.

She pondered, “If it weren’t for me getting pregnant with Dominick’s child, he would have undoubtedly married Jessica upon her retum.
