Chapter 288
After the weekend ended, Dominic became busy again. He went to the factory with Jewel for an inspection and felt fairly satisfied with what he saw.
The basic facilities had already been cleared out. Once the new production lines arrived, operations could begin.
This interim period also allowed time for staff training, with quality inspection as the top priority.
Because the product formula was a closely guarded secret, every step of the process linked tightly to the next. Different people
handled different metrics.
Following Andriana’s suggestion, Dominic decided to enforce strict controls in this area.
After finishing the factory inspection, Dominic went with Jewel to Skyline City Plaza.
Securing that storefront had not been smooth. Several companies had been competing for the space.
In the end, Dominic made the final call during negotiations and secured it at a 20% premium. For the successful launch and sale of White Cosmos No. 1, this was not the stage to cut costs.
Another piece of good news followed. Dominic’s salary was finally paid. Just over 150,000 dollars.
As soon as the money hit his account, he paid off all his credit cards and buy–now–pay–later balances.
When Jewel learned about it, she said nothing aloud, but she felt quietly moved.
Although Dominic owned 70% of the company’s shares, he had not transferred a single dollar from the company account to himself up to that point.
During this busy stretch, he still found time to go on occasional dates with Autumn. He turned down every one of Jessica’s repeated invitations to come over.
He had little choice. If he went over a few more times, he worried that with that little pervert’s abilities, he would be completely
devoured.
Jessica had reached her limit.
That day, Dominic finished signing several raw material procurement documents and checked the time. Without realizing it, the afternoon had already arrived.
He left the office.
As he stepped out of Garcia Tower, he noticed a young woman wearing a cropped top and tiny denim shorts. Her legs were fair and straight, her hair tied into twin ponytails that gave her a lively, cute air.
Most striking of all was the way her curves contrasted with her petite frame.
Quiet stares gathered from nearby men and women alike, some filled with desire, others with envy.
Naturally, the woman was Jessica.
The moment she spotted Dominic, she rushed over, wrapped herself around his arm, and greeted him with a radiant smile, Dominic p>
Her energy alone made it clear that she had fully recovered.
With her clinging to him, Dominic felt the soft bounce against his arm and quickly pulled free. “ Hey, we’re in public. Watch your image p>

“Why should I care about them?” Jessica replied, clearly annoyed.
She grabbed his arm again and held on even tighter.
Dominic did not resist. He even found himself enjoying it. He glanced at her outfit and spoke in a casual tone. “You should dress a little more modestly next time p>
“Huh?” Jessica looked down at herself. Everything seemed covered, with nothing exposed. She thought it over, then her eyes suddenly lit up. “Dominic, are you being possessive p>
His expression darkened, and he stayed silent.
From a certain angle, Jessica was not wrong. Men were like that. They wanted other men’s women to dress as provocatively as possible, but when it came to women close to them, they preferred the opposite.
His silence confirmed her guess.
Jessica smiled flirtatiously, leaned close to his ear, and teased, “Then I’ll buy some really revealing outfits and wear them only for you. I can even… wear nothing at all p>
Dominic’s heart skipped a beat. He changed the subject at once. “What are you talking about? Have you eaten p>
“Not yet. I’m starving,” Jessica said.
Dominic glanced at his watch. “Then let’s go. What do you want to eat p>
“I want to eat you, Dominic p>
Dominic stopped, turned his head, and stared at her for several seconds, his gaze dark and unreadable.
