Heartbreak Brings Mr. Right -
Chapter 409
“What’s the favor?” Arturo felt a chill run down his spine, sensing trouble brewing.
“Last night, a friend needed help replaceing a girl.
We’re very close, so naturally, I assisted.
” Domenic looked at him indifferently.
“I expect that from now on, this will be the story everyone hears.
”
Arturo was momentarily speechless.
So, Domenic was expecting him to take the blame!
“This might not be wise.
My mother will be furious if she replaces out,”
Arturo said, clearly worried.
Domenic glanced down, adjusting his shirt cuffs dismissively.
“That’s your problem.
You need to replace a solution yourself.
Or were you just kidding when you said you wanted my help?”
“Fine, it’s a deal!” Arturo realized he stood no chance against Domenic and resigned himself to his situation.
“You’re putting in a lot of effort to gain control of the Yates Group.
Is this all for Selah?” Domenic inquired casually, lifting his gaze to Arturo.
Arturo hesitated, then asked, “Can you not look at me as though you know all my secrets?”
“It’s quite obvious,” Domenic remarked with a sneer, focusing back on his documents.
“I’m aware I can’t keep secrets from you, but I’m genuinely serious this time.
” Arturo got up, turned, and exited the office.
Domenic watched him leave, and then his phone rang.
The caller ID made Domenic frown and annoyance flickered in his eyes.
Answering the call with a frosty tone
, Domenic said, “Uncle Rupert, what do you want?”
“Domenic, don’t be so distant,” Rupert Walsh said, his tone carrying a hint of smugness.
Among Domenic’s uncles, Rupert Walsh held the most power.
He was also the main obstacle in Domenic’s path to inheriting the Walsh Group.
The Vanguard Group he had established and managed didn’t wield as much influence as the Vitality Group in Morcastle, but it still held a significant market share and had been steadily growing in recent times.
Based on the information Domenic had gathered, Rupert had covertly formed alliances with Domenic’s other uncles, trying to deal with Domenic together.
However, to the outside world, Rupert always appeared to be a kind man.
Domenic responded in a detached tone, “Uncle Rupert, let’s focus on the matter at hand.
I’m very busy.
”
“Here’s the deal.
Your grandpa said it’s been too long since he last saw you and he’s really missing you.
He wants you to come over for dinner tonight.
You… You’ll come, won’t you?”
“Why didn’t Grandpa tell me himself if he wants to see me?” Domenic asked in a soft voice.
Rupert let out a sigh.
“He hasn’t been in the best of health.
I only found out when I visited him.
”
Domenic’s expression changed.
“Is Grandpa sick?”
