Chapter 26

After wrapping up everything at the school, Dominick didn't head back to the office. Instead, he did something out of character-he took Grayson back to Rosemont Haven.

This was the house he and Paisley had once lived together after getting married. Since their divorce, he hadn't set foot here again.

Grayson, on the other hand, had been living at Vanderbilt Manor under his grandmother's care. Dominick himself spent most of his time either in hotels or at an apartment near his office.

It had been almost four years since he last came here, so much so that when the housekeeper, Lily, saw Dominick and Grayson walk in, she nearly jumped out of her skin.

Lily was the same housekeeper Paisley had hired back in the day. Though no one had been staying at the house recently, she had remained to maintain the property.
