Dominic clenched his teeth, seething with resentment coursing through him.
Despite Jonah holding the title of company president, his arrogance stemmed
from being Winston's eldest son. He showed no regard for Dominic's seniority,
speaking to him as if he were a superior reprimanding an underling.
The entire family, young and old alike, treated Dominic with the same air of
superiority, looking down on him from their lofty perches. They never took him
seriously.
How could Dominic swallow his pride in the face of such treatment? “Let it go,
Jonah. Your uncle knows when he's wrong,” Winston interjected wearily,
gesturing with a tired hand. He wanted to put
an end to the discussion. "I'm fine now, Dominic. Your visit means a lot to me.
You've shown that you still care. You can leave
now. Winston had said all he could to salvage Dominic's dignity.
"Winston, what happened this time was my fault." Dominic's tone turned grave.
"But consider, throughout the years, how I've supported you. I've dedicated
decades to expanding the KS Group, enduring countless hardships along the
way.
“When you were unable to act, I was the one braving the elements and
navigating difficult projects in distant and inhospitable places. I stood by your side
every step of the way."
Alyssa gritted her teeth, suspecting Dominic harbored some ulterior motive
behind his sudden display of vulnerability. Winston frowned and nodded. "Yes, I
understand it hasn't been easy for you all these years."
"I've never asked for anything in return, only hoping that you would recognize our
bond as brothers and let me off the hook," Dominic continued, casting a
venomous glance at Jasper. "But I never imagined you would conspire with your
future son-in-law to make my life difficult.
"If you have grievances against me, confront me directly. There was no need to
air our family's dirty laundry in front of outsiders and resort to such tactics to
pressure and humiliate me."
Jasper's eyebrows furrowed in surprise, and he swallowed hard, realizing that
Dominic was directing his fury toward him as an outsider. Dominic was Winston's
brother, and any retaliation from Jasper would likely play into Dominic's hands,
potentially tarnishing Winston's favorable view of him.
Caught off guard, Winston looked at Jasper with an inexplicable gaze.
While the others remained oblivious to the underlying tension, Jonah couldn't
bear to witness Dominic unfairly accusing Jasper. Just as he was about to speak
up in Jasper's defense, Alyssa intervened, swiftly coming to her lover's aid.
"Uncle Dominic, what were you thinking when you misused public funds to cover
your investment losses? Did you think no one would find out?"
Alyssa's accusation left Dominic momentarily speechless.
"No one is an outsider here, not even Jasper. He's my partner. I won't mince my
words any longer. I'll speak frankly," Alyssa declared, firmly standing by Jasper's
side.
