Chapter 89
“Are you crazy?”
|
Ethan almost rushed over to hold Dominick’s arm to stop him from drinking again, but it was still too late.
“Stop drinking. Your injuries haven’t healed yet. You can’t drink.”
Lola couldn’t help but look at Dominick’s shoulder, with a slightly worried look on her face, but she quickly hid it.
She thought, “Why doesn’t he care about his health?‘
“Take your hand off my arm,” Dominick said lightly, dripping with decadence.
Ethan grabbed his glass and said, “Dominick, you can’t drink like this. You are courting death, I remember the doctor said that the anti- inflammatory medicine you are taking cannot be taken with alcohol. Aren’t you afraid of dying?”
Dominick slightly twitched his sexy, thin lips. Under the dim light, he exuded an almost crazy and casual temperament, looking so charming.
“It doesn’t matter. Iwon’t die.”
Although Dominick said this, he did not take back the glass from Ethan’s hand.
Lola loosened his furrowed eyebrows and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
“Take good care of yourself, or no one will bear the consequences for you and your company.” Ethan knew that Dominick felt depressed, but he couldn’t let him hurt his body like this.
With Lola beside him, Ethan sat next to Dominick. This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
This position of the three of them looked indescribably strange.
Ethan inexplicably felt like a peacemaker at this moment, so he simply played his role and persuaded with sincerity.
“Dominick, you are usually quite composed. Why are you so emotional now? Today is your company’s annual party, and so many of your employees are here. You should be clear about what you should and should not do.”
Ethan said tactfully, but his meaning was obvious. He didn’t want Dominick to lose his composure because of Lola.
“Hmm,” Dominick responded vaguely.
Just as Ethan was about to continue, his phone rang.
He glanced at the caller ID, and his face darkened. “I have a problem to solve. Stop drinking. Don’t forget that you are still injured.”
Ethan felt that he was not only Lola’s brother but also Dominick’s.
The two of them were really worrying.
Dominick had a sullen face and didn’t respond. Seeing his silence, Ethan was still worried.
“Layla, help me take care of him, and don’t let him drink anymore. It’s too dangerous.”
After saying this to Lola, Ethan left with peace of mind.
Almost as soon as Ethan left. Dominick picked up the glass of wine in front of him.
“Wait,” Lola didn’t expect Dominick to be so disobedient, so she almost instinctively held his wrist.
“Ethan said you can’t drink, Your injuries are not healed yet.”
Dominick slightly narrowed his eyes, exuding a cold presence.
He suddenly loosened his hand. The glass fell to the ground, and the wine spilled all over the floor.
Lola was startled. Dominick didn’t give her a chance to react and held her hand.
Dominick slowly exerted strength, and his eyes darkened.
“You… What are you doing?” Lola tried to pull her hand out.
But her strength was much less than Dominick’s, and she couldn’t pull her hand out of his at all.
“Let me go.” Lola panicked. It was the first time she saw Dominick like this.
Dominick had always been gentle to her, which gave her the illusion that he was a gentleman.
But today, Lola finally saw Dominick’s cold side.
“Are you caring about me?”
Dominick k didn’t a
tanswer Lola but asked her.
Dominick leaned over and got closer to Lola little by little. Lola felt his dangerous presence.
His eyes were deep, making it impossible to tell what he was thinking at this moment.
Lola, who was scared, was stunned when she heard Dominick’s question.
She stopped Dominick from drinking just because Ethan gave her the task. Except for this, she couldn’t think of another answer.
Lola avoided Dominick’s gaze and remained silent for a moment before she said indifferently, “No, Ethan asked me to do this
“And
id you are injured. Why do you have to drink? Why don’t you take good care of yourself?”
The annoyance in Dominick’s heart was growing. Why didn’t Lola tell him the answer he wanted?
He seemed to be insisting on getting the answer he wanted and continued, “Really? Look me in the eye and answer me. Do you really not
care about me at all?
As Dominick became excited, the strength of Dominick’s hand became heavier and heavier, causing Lola to frown in pain.
“Mr. Sinclair, I don’t know what kind of answer you will be satisfied with!
“I only know that we have nothing to do with each other. If others see you holding my hand, it will have a bad impact on both of us.”
Lola struggled to hold back tears in pain. When she looked at Dominick, her tears turned into accusations, pricking Dominick’s heart.
Dominick was stunned. Suddenly, he smiled with a hint of sarcasm and then let go of Lola’s wrist, shifting his gaze from her without any
hesitation.
Lola felt indescribably depressed, as if she was annoyed.
Sul, 22
She shouldn’t have said that just now. It was a bit too much.
After all, Dominick didn’t do anything impolite. She overreacted to him.
But if she didn’t say that and let him do that, would the situation get worse?
“Hello, Mr. Sinclair, I am Emilia Paulson, the director of the public relations department. I have long heard that you are handsome. I didn’t expect you to be even more handsome than I imagined.”
A beautiful woman with big waves and a dress came over, holding a glass of red wine.
Emilia wore delicate makeup and a charming smile. She stood less than one meter in front of Dominick,
Dominick couldn’t hide his impatience, but when he saw Lola looking at him from the corner of his eye, his impatience was suddenly replaced by a smile..
Dominick grabbed Emilia’s wrist and let her sit on his lap.
“Emilia Paulson? Nice name.” His words were ambiguous.
Emilia blushed instantly. She looked shy
shy but automatically leaned against Dominick’s chest.
“Thank you for the compliment, Mr. Sinclair. I’m glad you like my name.”
Lola felt something instinctively emerging in her heart bit by bit.
It seemed that there was a big stone pressing down on her heart, which made her breathless and almost suffocated.
