Chapter 989 Alfred added coldly, "This was Mr. Lloyd's order. Satisfied now?" Dominic's body went stiff as his heart sank completely. He knew that crossing Andrew meant ruin deep down, but now he was sure of it. This was not just a fall from grace; it was a freefall straight into hell, and there was no coming back.

They don't even have shopping malls, no luxury boutiques, not even a damn proper restaurant! What about my friends? My lifestyle? What the hell am I supposed to do?" Dominic tried to comfort her. "It's okay. These smaller towns have developed a lot recently. The Goth family owns several properties down there. Once we settle in, we'll still live comfortably.
"As for luxury stores and proper restaurant chains-con, let's be real. Do you think we'll ever be buying designer bags again?" Camilla shouted, "I don't care! I'm pregnant, and I can't live without the things I love. You expectto raise a child in the middle of nowhere? What kind of life is that?" Dominic sighed bitterly. "We'll do what every parent does-we'll work hard to build a better future for him. And don't forget, he'll have Nyla for an older sister. With her in charge now, she won't leave him behind." Camilla crumpled into sobs. "We never should've treated Nyla that way... I should've known-she had Andrew backing her this whole time. Pushing her down, controlling her... of course, it would backfire eventually. I just couldn't help it. I always saw her as a threat toand my baby." Dominic let out a deep breath. "You weren't the only one. I misjudged the whole situation. Andrew isn't just powerful... he practically controls Jayrodale now. I was blinded by pride. I thought I could still hold my own-but clearly, I had no idea what I was dealing with." The two sat quietly in the back of a rickety old van, bumping along the highway, leaving Jayrodale behind. Halfway into the trip, Dominic's phone rang-it was Quinton.
"Mr. Goth, I heard there's been strouble in your family. What's going on?" Quinton was still out of the loop-being from Blumedale, he always got Jayrodale news a beat too late.
Dominic clenched the phone and answered with bitterness. "Sorry, Quinton. I won't be able to help you anymore. From now on, there's nothing between us." Quinton's voice instantly turned sharp. "What are you saying? That's not how business works. Even if we didn't close a deal, we should part on good terms. What about the billion-dollar investment the Wrights promised? Don't you want that?" Cóntent belongs to Before Dominie could reply, Camilla snatched the phone and exploded. "Quinton, you walking disaster! Shove your damn investment your ass! Do you even realize it was because of you that Dominicost everything? "He's no longer head of the family, thanks to your mess! Get lost! Dominic doesn't want anything to do with you anymore!" And with that, she hurled the phone against the van wall, smashing it to pieces. Her whole body was trembling with fury.

Dominic stared at the shattered phone and groaned. "You're angry, fine but did you have to destroy the phone? We have phone? We were kicked out so fast, we barely packed. That phone was my most valuable possession right now!" Camilla screamed, "I don't care! I
needed to break something! You're a pathetic excuse for a man! If my life sucks from here on out I'll divorce! you without hesitation. I'll remarry and find someone richer than you! Sticking with a washed-up loser is not how I plan to live." Dominic's face darkened. "You're blaming me? I should be blaming you. Do you think I didn't know how cruel you were to Nyla while I was gone? You treated her like trash!"
Camilla shrieked, "Are we really doing this now? You want to argue about right and wrong while we're being driven out of our home? If you keep pushing, I swear I'll get an abortion and leave you in the dirt!" mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliIofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1
