Chapter 286
Dominic sat in the pavilion downstairs in the residential area for a long time. His gaze rested on a small white flower in the grass. His eyes looked distant, slightly lost and faintly dazed.
Wendy’s disappearance weighed heavily on his heart, yet he had no one he could talk to about it.
“Honey!” Isabella’s voice sounded nearby.
Dominic came back to his senses and glanced at her with indifference.
Isabella walked over and said, “Honey, why aren’t you going upstairs? I was worried-

“There’s no need for you to worry,” Dominic cut her off without expression, stood up, and walked upstairs.
Isabella was already used to his attitude. She said nothing and followed behind him.
When they got home, Katherine was still asleep. Lilith sat on a small stool, eating french toast and watching cartoons.
“ I’m going to sleep,” Dominic said.
“Mhm, I’ll take care of Lily,” Isabella replied.
It was the weekend, so she did not go to the office.
Dominic returned to his room, took a shower, and lay down to sleep.
When he opened his eyes again, it was already a little past 5:00 p.m. He picked up his phone and saw several missed calls and WhatsApp messages. Some were from Jessica, and some were from Autumn.
Dominic called Autumn first.
“Autumn, I didn’t sleep last night, so I was catching up on sleep today p>
Autumn hummed. “It’s nothing serious. I just wanted to ask if you’re free today. I wanted to ask you to go watch a movie p>
‘Watch a movie…‘ Dominic paused briefly before replying, “How about tomorrow p>
Autumn laughed softly. “Sure p>
They chatted casually for a little while before hanging up.

Next, Dominic returned Jessica’s call. The conversation lasted a long time. She did not want to hang up and kept him talking. The little pervert, however, did not bring up moving back in again.
By the time Dominic left his room, it was already past 6:00 p.m.
“Dominic, I ordered takeout. Come eat something,” Katherine said.
Dominic saw the food on the dining table and smiled. “Alright. I’ll go brush my teeth p>
After washing up, he walked over and asked, “Where are they p>
“Isabella took Lily to the park to play,” she replied.
Dominic nodded, picked up the cutlery, and started eating. He asked casually, “Katherine, are you still livestreaming these days?
“ I am. ” Katherine smiled. “I have plenty of free time. If I don’t do that, I get bored p>
“Did you mention what happened last time during your livestream p>
At the mention of the last incident, Katherine’s expression darkened slightly. After a brief silence, she said, “ I didn’t bring it up

again, and that person hasn’t come to bother me either. ”
Dominic thought, ‘Of course he won’t come looking for you again p>
He gave a low hum and let the topic drop, focusing on his meal.
Katherine suddenly said, “I heard you’re the chairman of JewelMed now p>
Dominic looked surprised. “How did you know p>
“Isabella told me p>
Dominic had not told Isabella himself, but his appointment as chairman of JewelMed was no secret. Given how closely she watched him, it would have been easy for her to find out.
An idea occurred to him, and he said seriously, “Speaking of JewelMed, there’s something I want to ask your help with p>
Katherine raised her eyebrows. “What is it p>
“The company is about to launch a product. It’s a beauty product. We want you to help us promote it,” he elaborated
Katherine was a beauty influencer with over a million followers, most of them women. If she handled the initial promotion, the response could be very strong
Katherine smiled. “No problem at all p>
