Getting humiliated like that made Dominic angry and a trace of maliciousness quickly flashed
through his eyes, but he didn't dare to show the slightest bit of emotion on his face.
He twisted his fat body and moved his chin away from Henry's shoes as he said nonchalantly,
"Hen... Henry, I didn't really betray you, right?"
"Really?" Henry adjusted his posture and looked down at him ironically. "For so many years, the
Conrads' company achieved their success with my support. All the partners who were working with
the Conrads also did it because of the Lancaster Group. This means that in the business, the
Conrads and the Lancasters go hand in hand, but you..."
At this point, Henry suddenly sneered and frowned.
He turned his head and glanced at the woman beside him. "What were you doing just now?"
Yvonne didn't change her expression as she withdrew the hand that was pinching his waist. She
said lightly, "Nothing, I just wanted to punish you."
That was for helping the Conrads after all these years.
"Punish?" Henry whispered. After a little thought, he figured out what she meant by punishment.
"You're so petty." He squeezed her face.
Yvonne patted his hand. "I'm not petty. I don't really care about which company you support
because it has nothing to do with me, but I just can't deal with you supporting the Conradsâ
company so I'm definitely not happy."
When Dominic who was laying on the ground heard this, he raised his eyes and looked at Yvonne.
His eyes were unspeakably complicated; there was anger, dissatisfaction, and a hint of emotion that
no one could understand...
"Don't worry, I wonât upset you." Henry squeezed Yvonne's hand and assured her.
Yvonne snorted and said nothing.
Henry turned his gaze back to Dominic, and the tenderness on his face immediately dissipated as
he turned emotionless. "For years, the Conrads have relied on the Lancasters for benefits and I
think you probably know that. Iâm not even asking the Conrads t o help the Lancasters in any way,
but how could you turn your head and side with the Lancastersâ enemy instead? Why should I save
those who betrayed me?"
Dominic was speechless when Henry said that. His visibly aged face immediately flushed, and he
was out of breath.
"I won't save Jacqueline. I donât care if sheâs dead or alive, so if youâre looking for someone to save
her, youâre looking for the wrong guy."
Henry's words ruined all hope Dominic had left and h e was completely flustered. "Henry, you can't
do this. I know weâve done you wrong, but Jackie had a relationship with you and after all that, can't
you save her for the sake of your past relationship? Do you really have the heart to let her die?"
"Yeah, do you really?" Yvonne went along with Dominic's words and stared at the man.
She also wanted to know the answer.
Just as Dominic said, Jacqueline had been with him and they had a relationship. Most men would
find those past relationships the most unforgettable ones.
Therefore, she really wanted to know if he really had the heart to not save Jacqueline.
Yvonneâs sudden question took Dominic by surprise.
He didn't know that Yvonne was trying to test Henry's attitude towards Jacqueline, and he thought
she was actually helping him persuade Henry to save Jacqueline.
There was a look of satisfaction in his eyes that were staring at Yvonne with a complicated
expression.
"Yes, Henry. You canât just ignore it, right?" Dominic moved closer to Henry again. "I know you still
have feelings for Jackie. As long as you save Jackie, I will d o whatever you want me to do. I
promise. I only have one daughter and thatâs Jackie-I can't lose her."
He pretended to be pleading, in hopes to move Henry.
Henry was not impressed, but Yvonne became very
upset.
She stood up and turned to look at the man beside her. "Henry, can you go out?"
"What?" Henry raised his gaze and stared at her.
Yvonne slowly turned her head back and looked at Dominic. "I have something I want to talk to him
about. Alone."
Henry knew what she wanted to talk about, so he stood up without hesitation. "Okay, call me after
the talk."
After that, he put his hands in his pockets and went out.
Bang!
The door closed.
Only Yvonne and Dominic were left. She was standing while he was tied up on the ground and
unable to get u P-
For some reason, Dominic felt a little uneasy. He stared at his toes and moved his body back so
that he could distance himself from Yvonne. "What do you want to talk to me about?"
Yvonne ignored him and circled around him with an incomprehensible look in her eyes. She finally
stood i n front of him and lightly opened her pale lips. "You said that you only have a daughter, and
thatâs Jacqueline, right?"
When Dominic heard this, his pupils widened and a trace of guilty conscience flashed across his
face as h e stuttered, "Yes...Yes..."
"Really?" Yvonne folded her arms and looked down at him scornfully. "But I heard that Jacqueline
actually has a sister?"
"Nonsense!" Dominic retorted loudly as if he had been provoked, "What sister? I donât have any
illegitimate daughter!"
"You donât?" Yvonne burst into laughter as if she just heard a big joke and her laughter was full of
irony.
Dominic's heart became more and more uneasy. He glared at Yvonne angrily. "Whatâre you
laughing at?"
"Iâm laughing at your impudence!" Yvonne replied.
Dominic was furious. "You..."
"What? Did I say something wrong?" Yvonne pointed t o herself. "Aren't you impudent? You cheated
on your wife during her pregnancy, and you even brought the other woman and the child in her belly
home. Is this not impudence? Jacqueline is the child of your other woman, so isn't she your
illegitimate daughter?"
Dominic was so angry that he wanted to refute, but he couldn't bring himself to say anything.
Yvonne laughed again, "You have nothing to say, right? It seems like you also know in your heart
that Jacqueline is an illegitimate daughter, and only I..."
She patted her chest as she got closer to Dominic and looked at him with hatred. "Only I am your
righteous daughter!"
Dominic's eyes widened and he couldn't believe it. ' You... How would you know..."
"Huh?" Upon hearing this, Yvonne squinted her eyes suspiciously. "What do you mean? Do you
also know that I'm your daughter?" 1
Only then did Dominic realize he had accidentally revealed himself. He turned his head quickly as
he did not dare to meet her furious gaze and he hesitated, "I... I don't understand what you're talking
about. I don't know anything!"
"No!" Yvonne stretched out her hand and squeezed Dominic's chin to turn his face forcefully. "You
knew. You knew that I'm your daughter. Donât want to lie to me. No wonder you looked at me with
that complicated look in your eyes. So you already knew that I was your daughter a long time ago.
Tell me, when did you find out?" she asked loudly.
Dominic closed his mouth tightly and refused to answer.
Yvonne became agitated. She grabbed Dominic tighter and asked, "Tell me, when did you find out?
Did you know it when you saw me, or..."
"I didn't know. I don't have any other daughters. I only have one daughter, and thatâs Jackie!"
Dominic turned his head abruptly and avoided her grip.
Yvonne's mind went blank for a moment when he listened to his words of assurance, and she
suddenly became quiet.
After a few seconds, she calmed down and the angry expression on her face slowly disappeared.
"Yeah, you only have one daughterâJacqueline. You donât acknowledge my existence at all. I
guess a man who could cheat on his wife during her pregnancy probably means that he doesn't
love his wife anyway, s o how could he have feelings for the child in her belly? I was thinking too
much. I actually had expectations for you!" Yvonne laughed at herself. She smiled and tears started
flowing.
"Expectations?" Dominic's eyes flickered as he thought about something. There was a hint of
deception in his eyes as he immediately put on a loving face. "Do you really want to reconcile with
me?"
