As the cab stopped at the curb, Gabriel alighted from the vehicle. He had arrived at the building that would be the location of the reunion.The reunion was being held in a relatively new luxury building in the city, which held its first opening six months ago.Gabriel wore a navy suit with a striped pattern. A luxurious silver watch was on his wrist. His appearance exuded elegance, striking without needing to try too hard.He entered the building's entrance and saw Pevita standing nearby, seemingly observing her surroundings, waiting for someone.Pevita hadn't realized Gabriel had arrived. A smile formed on Gabriel's face as he walked towards his girlfriend.She looked stunning in a long black dress, a diamond hair clip in her hair that sparkled in the light, and silver high heels adorning her slender, long legs.As her gaze landed on him, her expression immediately changed. She waved, her excitement palpable."Baby, you've finally come!" she stated."Sorry, my dear, for making you w

Pevita's smile widened, and she felt happy to hear her man's voice. "Babe, what are you doing right now?"Gabriel paused for a moment, trying to find the right words to avoid arousing suspicion in his girlfriend."I'm in the dorm now, doing my assignment," he replied."So, are you free tonight?" Pevita asked, her tone filled with excitement.Gabriel nodded, though Pevita couldn't see his gesture directly."Yeah, I'll be free. Why, my dear?""I'm in Forire City right now to fulfil a reunion invitation from my junior high school. I received the invitation months ago, before we officially became official. And I'm thinking of taking you there. Do you want to come with me, babe?" she asked in a hopeful tone.Before becoming mayor of Valmont City, Wilhelm Leroy and his family used to live in Forire City. Even Pevita went to elementary school until senior high school in Forire City.Gabriel was willing to do anything to put a smile on her, so of course he would agree to her request, let alon
Chapter 407
Dominick hissed in pain, touched his nose, and saw fresh blood on his palm. It was dripping from his nose and fell onto his shirt.Lifting his gaze, he was met by Gabriel, who was staring at him with a dark gaze.Dominick immediately averted his gaze; he shrank in fear. He couldn't contain his anger at Gabriel's refusal to help him, so he attacked him.Gabriel folded his arms across his stomach, and mocking words left his mouth.“So, you came here just to attack me? I think you refused to hear all my words to you, all my warnings. I think I'll reconsider giving The Reid Group another surprise. I'll—” Before he could finish, Dominick interrupted—he stood on his feet as he cupped his palms, pleading with Gabriel.“Please, don't! I'm so sorry that I lost my temper. I was so disappointed that you refused to help me. I feel so hopeless; my family is on the edge of bankruptcy.” His words dripped with sadness.Gabriel furrowed his brows and responded. "And then? Why didn't your father think
Chapter 406
Just as Diana left his sight, Dominick heavily turned his gaze to Gabriel. A glimmer of denial subsided, shifting to believe that a university student in front of him was truly the mysterious highest figure of The Dragon Lord Group.He stammered, his words left his mouth with a shaky voice. “So… so you are really the highest figure of The Dragon Lord Group?”Gabriel sighed as he rolled his eyes in peevedness. He folded his arms as he smirked, letting such intimidating words pass. "You can see it, right? You're not blind; you can see it clearly. It's so annoying to have to tell you many times. If you keep pissing me off, then I'd throw you out of here!"Dominick's lips immediately shut, his eyes filled with fear."You and your dad sent men to beat me up, but luckily I was able to defeat them. After that, he tried to offer me money to help him get his company's cooperation contract with The Dragon Lord Group back, but I didn't want to help. Now that you've found out who I truly am, I ho
Chapter 405
Silence enveloped the room. Only the ticking of the clock on the wall could be heard.Dominick tilted his head slightly, hoping that he could catch a glimpse of the face of the figure in front of him. Seeing the figure's body from behind made Dominick frown, a mixture of surprise and curiosity on his face.He had expected the highest figure of The Dragon Lord Group to be someone in his at least 40s—meanwhile, the man standing in front of him seemed much younger. This was not the build of a middle-aged man.Gabriel could feel his eyes staring intensely at his back. A smirk tugged at the corner of his lips.In a firm and authoritative voice, he declared, "What brings you here? Hasn't the cooperation between The Dragon Lord Group and The Reid Group ended?"Dominick flinched, immediately straightening his posture, staring straight ahead. He was so tense. But there was a slightly odd feeling when he heard the figure's voice.He felt like he had heard the figure's voice before, but where? M
Chapter 404
Dominick and his butler arrived on the 7th floor, where the room the receptionist had mentioned was located. As they stepped out of the elevator, they were greeted by a beautiful, graceful woman, none other than Diana.The two men flashed a wide smile and nodded respectfully to Diana.“Welcome to The Dragon Lord Group, Mr. Dominick Reid and your butler. Please, follow me to the room. You will wait for my master there,” she explained, then turned and walked away.Dominick and his butler followed behind her, arriving in front of a room. Diana took the key and opened the door. As she opened the door, she gestured toward the room, ordering the two men to enter.“Please, you will be waiting for my master in this room. Please, if I haven't called for you, never leave this room!” she commanded, her voice steady, calm, yet slightly firm.Dominick nodded and smiled. He and his butler stepped inside the room. Once they were inside, Diana closed the door.Dominick and his butler exchanged glance
