Dominic brought Lilith home.
The moment he opened the door, Jessica’s voice rang out. “Welcome home, Dominic. I’ll help you change your shoes! ”
Dominic froze.
She had somehow gotten herself a maid outfit, and it looked alarmingly convincing. The originally fitted uniform now clung tightly to her body, stretched and snug in all the wrong places.
The veins at Dominic’s temple throbbed. “Who told you to wear that? Take it off … No, change it! Go to your room and change right now p>
Jessica was a little perverse. If he had not said anything, she really might have changed in front of him.
“Yes, Dominic!” She put on a bright, obedient smile, flashed an OK hand gesture, and dashed back to her room.
Dominic shook his head helplessly, put away the property deed, and went into the kitchen to start cooking.
Just then, the doorbell rang.
He turned and opened the door. Mary and Alexander stood outside.
Dominic’s expression shifted instantly. His face turned ice–cold. “It’s you p>
“ Dom! I came to apologize! ” Alexander said earnestly.
Mary sighed. “Dominic, this is all my son’s fault. Please don’t take it to heart. Let bygones be bygones p>
Dominic replied coldly, “Are you done? If you are, get lost p>
Alexander’s face fell, his expression dark and dejected. “Dom, can you talk to Bella for me? She won’t answer my calls. I don’t even know what I did wrong p>
The sight of them only worsened Dominic’s mood. He sneered, “Stop pretending. You know exactly what you did. ”
He lifted his hand slightly, as if gesturing to the sky. “Some things are watched by God. Your days are numbered. Soon, it will all be over. ”
Alexander shivered.
Mary’s eyes narrowed. She suddenly dropped to her knees. “Dominic, please have mercy on us. We’re just a widowed mother and son. Alexander finally has a sister. Just let them be together. I beg you. Please p>
She sobbed openly, tears and mucus streaming down her face.
Dominic’s gaze remained frigid. He pointed toward the elevator. “I don’t want to waste time on you Get out now. Enjoy what little time you have left. Don’t tempt fate p>
“ I … ” Alexander started to speak.
At that moment, Lilith walked over, confusion written on her face. “ Daddy, who are they? ”

Mary’s eyes flickered. She nudged Alexander subtly.
Alexander took a deep breath and quietly turned off the recording on his phone. The act fell away.
Lowering his voice, he sneered at Dominic, “You’re a loser. Bella doesn’t want you anymore, right? She’ll be mine eventually. And Lilith too, once she grows up. Buy one, get one free. Haha p>
Dominic’s eyes flew open.
Without hesitation, he kicked Alexander.
The laughter vanished instantly. Pain detonated in Alexander’s abdomen. His body flew backward, sliding two or three meters across the polished tiles.
“You’re courting death!” Dominic’s voice carried a sharp, murderous edge. He charged forward and kicked him again.
Alexander curled up, clutching his head. Agony ripped through him, worse than anything he had ever felt. He screamed.
A shout suddenly rang out nearby. “Dominic p>
Isabella came running toward them, breathless.
Dominic ignored her. His eyes were frozen with fury.
“Dominic, use this!” Jessica suddenly rushed out and shoved a gleaming kitchen knife into his hand.
Alexander and Mary were stunned.
This was not how it was supposed to go. They had planned to hurt him, not get killed.
When Dominic took the knife without hesitation, Alexander went pale. He let out a shrill, pig–like scream. “Ah! Help! He’s going to kill me p>
Isabella did not care who Jessica was. Panic seized her when she saw the knife in Dominic’s hand. She rushed forward and wrapped her arms tightly around his waist. “Dominic, no p>
