Chapter 129

“Going to Wellington Villa has felt eerie lately. Scott, what’s up with Dominick? He’s been particularly irritable this week…

It was another weekend.

Vincent and his friends had some rare free time, so they headed to the club to drink, play pool, and relax.

Vincent grabbed a half–filled glass of whiskey from the bar and took a sip thoughtfully. Before Scott, who was sitting next to him, could speak, Vincent mumbled, “It must be Stephanie…”

Scott seemed to sense something and nudged him.

With a faint smile, Scott reminded him, “Vincent, you’d better shut up now.”

“Why?” Vincent glanced at him, confused and annoyed. His whiskey spilled a bit.

As Vincent sat on the rotating metal bar stool, he turned around, his eyes widened, and he immediately fell silent.

Dominick was standing right behind him…

Vincent quickly poured half a glass of red wine and handed it over with a sycophantic smile. “Dominick, didn’t you say you were staying home today?”

Dominick took the glass, his mood souring at the mention of “home“. He sat down without a word and downed the wine in one gulp.

It was clear he was in a bad mood.

“I heard Hayley is busy transferring her work from the Serenburg branch. Is she moving back here?” Scott, sensing the tense atmosphere, casually brought up a safe topic.

“Yes.” Dominick’s voice was hoarse, and he responded indifferently, not very interested.

His deep eyes were fixed on the crystal wine glass in his hand, spinning it absentmindedly.

He thought, ‘Red wine… She loved red wine…

‘She hadn’t been home for a week…

“She is still pregnant. Would she eat random things?‘

Dominick, Dominick, what are you thinking about?” Vincent called out to him a few times. He seemed lost in thought.
