Crossroads

Chapter 102

As dusk fell, the crowded commercial street was bustling and the traffic was congested. The largest commercial bar in the center of the square was particularly dazzling with flashing neon lights, and it was incredibly lively.

“Dominick, is something bothering you?”

Compared to the lively dance floor in the bar, the counter on the east side bar was relatively quiet, with few people daring to come near

Vincent hesitated for a long time before summoning the courage to speak. “Dominick, you shouldn’t drink so much. Those frequent migraines you’ve been having could be due to an old injury. This isn’t something to take lightly….

Dominick, who was sitting to the left, raised his glass and downed it all in one go. He then looked over coldly at Vincent with narrowed eyes.

When Vincent saw that, a chill ran down his spine, and he immediately stopped talking.

t weren’t for the fact that Scott’s family affairs, he wouldn’t have had to face such a gloomy Dominick alone.

Vincent knew Dominick hated it when people brought up his old injuries, so he quickly changed the subject. “By the way, Dominick, have you got any news about Oscar?”

Dominick replied, “Can’t find him.”

As he thought of his friend, his frown deepened, and he poured himself another half glass of whiskey, feeling increasingly irritated.

Vincent raised an eyebrow and muttered, “How odd. He finally woke up, and now he’s disappeared.”

But Oscar Dixon had always been an oddball. Although they had known him since childhood, no one truly understood him. Vincent especially remembered every time he competed with Oscar, he would always get outsmarted.

As Scott mentioned, Oscar didn’t like being disturbed and even Dominick couldn’t do anything about it.

Vincent couldn’t help but wonder what exactly Oscar was up to.

When he turned to look at Dominick again, he was surprised to see Dominick put down his glass and stare intently at a group of attractive

women across the room.

Those women across from them were wearing fishnet stockings and tight red strapless dresses, their heavily made–up faces smiling brightly as they glanced over at them,

One of the women leaned against the bar, slightly lifting her right leg to reveal a long stretch of her thigh. It was clear that the people here

were players.

Did Dominick want a hookup? The thought immediately popped into Vincent’s mind.

Yet, the next moment, Vincent realized how silly the idea was, as the five bodyguards in the corner would definitely chase the women away if they dared to come closer.

“Actually, women can be easily moved by spending money on them,” Vincent suddenly said.
