Chapter 425

Vespera stood quietly as Dominic walked toward her. She wasn't intimidated by his cold expression. Who did he think he could scare her with that?

On the contrary, Gerard was terrified. Meanwhile, Calvert rushed over happily. He called out, "Mr. Reid, I'm here!"

Dominic looked like he was about to beat Calvert up. He asked, "What did I tell you before, huh?"

Calvert raised his hands in surrender and braced himself, saying, "If you're mad, go ahead and hit me. Come on. Hit me."

Dominic frowned. He knew better than to waste energy on Calvert. Instead, his gaze turned sharp as it slid past Vespera, locking onto Gerard, who was cowering behind her. He ordered, "Get over here now."

Gerard visibly wilted. He knew this was going to happen. He knew it, and yet here he was. Still, he couldn't bring himself to step forward. Instead, he peeked around Vespera and Calvert. He explained, "I told her not to come. I really did! But she wouldn't listen!"

"Come over here. I just want to talk. I won't hit you," said Dominic.

Gerard didn't believe him. He turned to Vespera with desperate eyes that practically screamed, "You dragged me here. Why am I the one about to die? This is on you! Fix it!"
