‘ If it weren’t for him…‘ Jewel thought.
Jewel’s eyes trembled, and she could not stop herself from speaking. “Dominic … thank you p>
She did not even realize it, but her voice was already breaking.
Dominic glanced at her and gave a soft chuckle. “ I’m fine p>
The doctor spoke up. “Alright. You should all talk less. The patients need plenty of rest p>
With that, he turned and left the room.
Pain spread through Dominic’s body, yet beneath it lingered a faint itch. The sensation made him suspect that his healing ability was far stronger than he had realized.
Jessica moved back to Dominic’s side and asked quietly, “Dominic, have you made any enemies lately p>
He stiffened, then frowned. “You think this fire wasn’t an accident p>
“ No, ” Jessica said coldly. “The police have already started investigating. They found a large amount of gasoline at the scene. It was clearly arson p>
As soon as she spoke, the atmosphere in the room turned icy.
Even Isabella stopped crying. She asked in a chilling voice, “Are there any other leads? We need to catch this person before the police do p>
Jessica looked her over and sneered, “If there were clues, would it be your turn to ask p>
Isabella ignored the mockery. Someone had committed arson, and the intent was clearly to kill Dominic. Nothing mattered more than that.
“Enough, ” Dominic said, lifting his hand. “Stop arguing p>
He paused, then spoke calmly. “ I think I know who set the fire p>
“ What?! ” everyone exclaimed at once.
“ You don’t need to get involved,” Dominic said. “I’ll handle it myself p>
“Dominic, just tell me, ” Jessica said anxiously.
He shook his head. “That’s enough. You should all go p>
The look on his face made it clear that his decision was final. The women exchanged glances and did not press him further
“Dominic, Bella and I will leave first,” Katherine said. “Get some rest. I’ll bring you something to eat tonight p>
She took Isabella by the arm and led her out.
Jessica followed, though she left with obvious reluctance.
Autumn lingered a little longer. She and Dominic exchanged a brief look, and Jewel said unhappily, “Autumn, I’m hurt too, you
know p>
Autumn turned to her with an apologetic smile. “Aunt Jewel, I’m here already, aren’t I p>
Jewel shot Dominic a glance and said Jealously, “Some people forget their aunt the moment they see a man
Autumn’s face flushed. She hurried to speak. “Aunt Jewel, Dominic, I’ll head out first. You both get some rest. I’ll come see you

tomorrow morning p>
Once she left, the ward finally fell quiet.
Less than two minutes later, however, another unexpected visitor walked in.
Dominic stiffened when he saw him.
“Mr. Fleming. Long time no see. ” The man was Isaac, Charlotte’s father.
Dominic felt a flicker of surprise, but he still smiled politely. “Hello, Mr. Moore p>
Isaac let out a sigh.
“ I’ve known for a long time that JewelMed belongs to you, but I never expected such a serious accident to happen.” He paused.” I came today to discuss something with you p>
This time, he addressed him formally.
Dominic nodded. “Please go on. ”
Isaac handed him a business card: Chairman of Amaze Construction, Isaac Moore.
Dominic took the card. He had already investigated Isaac’s background, so the title did not surprise him.
Isaac smiled. “Our company owns a piece of land. I plan to build an office tower there. I’ll cover all the upfront costs. Mr. Fleming, once you take it over, you can repay the funds in installments p>
Dominic looked up in surprise. “What- ”
“And there’s more,” Isaac continued, waving his hand. “I have two vacant office floors right now, more than 10,000 square feet in total. You can use them first. That’s settled. I’ll have someone bring the contract tomorrow. You can sign it then p>
He did not wait for Dominic to refuse. He turned and prepared to leave.
“ Wait, ” Dominic called out.
Isaac stopped and turned back.
Dominic met his gaze. “ You’re still young. Have another child p>
Isaac stared at him in shock. “Didn’t we agree last time that … ”
“ Have another one,” Dominic interrupted with a smile. “And name her Charlotte p>
Isaac froze. Understanding dawned on his face. His eyes widened, and his expression grew visibly agitated.
