Crossroads

Chapter 189
“Dominick, you’re far too lenient with the people from the Pearson family,” Vincent remarked, his tone laced with frustration
Dominick was known for his ruthless methods. He had completely overhauled the Innovate Group, showing no mercy to competitors. Yet, there was one exception to his harshness, the Pearson family,
Vincent found it odd to associate the word “lenient” with Dominick, a man whose mere presence commanded fear and respect. But tonight, in dealing with Mason, Vincent saw a side of Dominick that seemed uncharacteristically cautious.
It wasn’t like him at all.
“Mason is just a distant relative of the Pearson Family Vincent continued, his anger bubbling under the surface. “Seeing him act so arrogantly makes me want to…”

“Shut up Dominick snapped, his irritation boiling over.
Hayley, unfazed by his outburst, met his gaze steadily. Her eyes were soft, filled with unwavering concern. “Dominick, you need to share these things with us. Don’t try to handle everything alone she coased, her voice gentle but firm.

But Stephanie saw it all.
Suddenly, she didn’t understand why she stood foolishly at the elevator entrance. She should have walked over and greeted them, especially since he had texted her to come.
Yet now, she found herself hesitant to move, feeling like she wasn’t needed at all,
Outside, the rain poured heavily, the thunder rolled through the clouds, and lightning flashed intermittently, making it a frightening night. But the guests at this soirée of the elite wouldn’t be bothered. They frequented such glamorous gatherings, reveling in opulence and pleasure in it
