Abigail’s expression did not change. “Are you trying to get yourself killed p>
“Hahaha!” Everyone burst out laughing. This kind of banter was clearly routine for them.
Abigail truly had a strong heart. Jokes like this were nothing new to her.
In sales, you encountered every kind of person imaginable. Abigail might not have been stunningly beautiful, but she carried a distinct presence. After seeing so much, she handled awkward situations with effortless ease.
Meanwhile, Dominic thought that the mysterious Miss Wright was finally revealing herself.
At 10:00 a.m., the entire office suddenly fell silent, so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
Dominic did not think much of it. He stood up and headed toward the restroom. He had gone only halfway when a cold voice rang out nearby. “Don’t you have any work to do p>
He instinctively turned his head and saw a woman in a professional office skirt standing a short distance away. Her curvy figure drew the eye at once. She looked to be about 35. Her features were refined and flawless, strikingly beautiful.
At the moment, however, her expression was icy, and she radiated a chilling aura.
Dominic frowned. “Are you talking to me p>
When the woman saw his face, she paused.
“It’s you p>
Only then did Dominic notice a young man in his 20s standing beside her. He was pointing at Dominic with a cold smile.
‘So this guy works here too?‘ Dominic immediately remembered him. This was the young man he had run into at the entrance of
Lydia’s law firm that day, where they had clashed briefly. He had introduced himself as Zachary Grant.
Dominic ignored him. By now, he could guess that this woman was the general manager of JewelMed and also Autumn’s aunt, Jewel Wright.
He said, “Hello, Miss Wright. I’m going to the restroom p>
With that, he turned around and started to leave.
Zachary sneered, “Did I say you could leave p>
Dominic stopped and turned back. “What do you want p>
Zachary said, “I had urgent business last time, so I let you off, brat. I won’t waste words on you today. You’re Jewel’s employee. For her sake, apologize to me, and we’ll call it even p>
Dominic snorted. “I don’t think you should be called Zachary Grant. You should be called Zachary Arrogant p>
Zachary’s pupils contracted. He stared at Dominic for several seconds before speaking. “You’ve got guts, real guts. I already consider myself generous enough, and you still p>
“Zachary,” Jewel cut in. “Do you know who he is p>
Zachary froze. “What kind of background does this guy have p>
Jewel replied calmly, “His father–in–law is James Sinclair p>
Zachary’s pupils shrank further. “The Sinclairs of Eastmere State p>
Dominic frowned. Jewel was clearly not someone to underestimate. Before even meeting him properly, she had already

investigated his background thoroughly.
“All right. I have a meeting soon,” Jewel said. “If you have any grudges, settle them in private. ”
Since Jewel had spoken, Zachary could not push the matter further.
He stared at Dominic and smiled darkly. “I didn’t expect you to have such a powerful background, brat. But so what. In the end, you’re still living off others. If Oliver Sinclair showed up, I’d show him respect. As for this matter, it’s not over p>
He then turned to Jewel. “You should get going. I won’t cause you trouble. I’ll head out first p>
Only then did a faint smile appear on Jewel’s cold face. “Go ahead p>
Zachary glanced at Dominic one last time before turning and leaving.
