Watching his grandpa’s distress, Domenic clenched his fists.Property ? 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.


    At that moment, Rupert, seated in the VIP area, stood up and looked at Domenic earnestly.


    “Domenic, stop pissing off Dad and rify things now.


    What exactly is your connection with this Miss Stewart? Is she your secret lover? And is she the reason you missed the engagement party before? Did you have her wear the same dress as Carole just to humiliate Carole? Domenic, don’t forget Carole is your fiancée.


    You may not be fond of her, but you shouldn’t treat her this way.


    ”


    After Rupert intentionally asked these questions, Jordan’s expression grew even more grim.


    Jordan fixed his gaze on Domenic, as if he had never known his grandson at all.


    “Domenic, speak up.


    rify this now.


    ” Jordan pointed usingly at Domenic, his breathing bing heavy.


    Domenic’s gaze moved from Rupert to Carole, finally settling firmly on Jordan, who was still standing there upright, with sharp and deep eyes, like a king who looked down upon everything.


    Domenic responded calmly, “Grandpa, today marks a significant asion for the Walsh Group.


    I’ll discuss these matters with you after the celebration.


    ”


    At those words, Jordan felt a sudden stab of pain in his chest.


    Domenic’s decision to postpone the discussion almost seemed to confirm suspicions of his involvement with Lindsey.


    Otherwise, why wouldn’t he clear the air immediately instead of waiting until the event concluded?


    Jordan attempted to steady his breathing.


    As the chairman of the Walsh Group, he had weathered many challenges.


    Years ago, Domenic’s father had defied him by secretly marrying Domenic’s mother and renouncing his inheritance to lead a simpler life with her.


    He had borne those trials.


    He kept telling himself there was little he couldn’t withstand.


    But he was determined not to let Domenic repeat his father’s mistakes.


    Wasn’t the inheritance of the Walsh Group what Domenic always wanted? He had intended to make a crucial announcement today, but now, he reconsidered.


    With Carole’s support, Jordan approached Domenic and fixed him with a gaze, his murky, shrewd eyes brimming with hostility.


    Jordan’s voice was cold as he gestured towards Lindsey, who stood nearby and said to Domenic, “Today, I need a clear answer from you.


    Do you choose her or the inheritance of the Walsh Group?”


    The question caused a stir among the onlookers, who exchanged bewildered nces.


    The choice seemed obvious—how could anyone choose a woman over the Walsh Group? After all, it was well-known that the CEO of the Vitality Group had dedicated years to building his business empire just to vie for the position of the Walsh Group heir.


    Would he give up such an inheritance for a woman, especially one with humble background?


    It seemed impossible.


    Meanwhile, Kristy, seated in the back, watched eagerly with arms folded and a smirk ying on her lips.


    She was ready for the drama to unfold, certain that Domenic would decisively discard Lindsey.


    Domenic met Jordan’s gaze but remained silent.


    Jordan’s frown deepened as he continued, “If you choose the Walsh Group I’ll grant you that one percent of the shares you need right now.


    You’ll be thergest shareholder and the next chairman.


    ”


    As soon as these words came out of Jordan’s mouth, Rupert stood up from his seat in a hurry.


    He had hoped to use the situation with Lindsey to suppress Domenic and turn Jordan against Domenic.


    He hadn’t anticipated Jordan turning this into an opportunity for Domenic to make a choice.


    How could Domenic possibly give up the inheritance?


    Rupert was agitated.


    After striving for years to secure his ce as the heir to the Walsh Group, he couldn’t just watch Jordan offer it to Domenic.


    “Dad, just because Domenic might choose the Walsh Group outwardly doesn’t guarantee he won’t keep seeing this woman secretly.


    Don’t let him deceive you.


    He’s been keeping too much from you.


    ”


    Jordan gave a derisive snort, fixed his gaze on Domenic, and said cruel words in the calmest tone, “If you choose the Walsh Group, I will ensure Miss Stewart is relocated far from here, never to cross your path again.


    But if you choose her, you are effectively giving up your right to inherit the Walsh Group.


    I will seek another suitable sessor within our family.


    You will lose all ims to the inheritance.


    Have you made up your mind?”
