The Almighty Dominance

Chapter 92

Inside the car's quiet interior, Sophia leaned her head agafest the window, her mind drifting back to the stranger who'd come to her aid earlier.

Could it be fate?

Was this mysterious figure the soulmate she'd always dreamed about the one who would stand by her forever?

She breathed out heavily, shaking the thought away.

She didn't even know him.

"You don't look happy," Alex said, breaking the silence.

Sophia managed againt smile.

"On the contrary, I'm very happy. Someone paid a hundred million for me, clearing

the loan that haunted me and the Lancasters."

Alex smiled, his heart lightening.

He was glad to see his wife finally accept the help.

Later this noon, as she drifted into sleep, he gently healed her and pulled a blanket over her, making sure she was warm and comfortable.

Meanwhile, behind the scenes, he'd ordered Carlos to take control of the entire Black syndicate.

Charles Cole, Cathy Black, Bruno Black-their fortunes and futures now lay quietly in his hands.

"I'm glad you're pleased,” Alex said at last, leaning back in the driver's seat as they continued down the road. Sophia looked at him, puzzled. "Pleased about what?"

He gave her a playful wink. "The debt. I arranged for it to be cleared."

She stared at him, her breath catching.

For several long moments, she said nothing, struggling to piece everything together.

"Sophia? Are you alright?" he asked gently.

She took a measured breath. "Alex... let's be honest with each other, okay?"

He tensed slightly, unsure where this was going. "Of course."

Her gaze was steady, searching his face. "I know who you are."
