Chapter 114 Everyone , keep your heads down .
] Vanderbilt Group › headquarters was buzzing with an air of tension .
Mr.
Vanderbilt is in a bad mood today .
Eve Within five minutes , the message had spread across all the companys major group chats .
The most troubled by this news were the senior executives .
Unlike the mid- and lower level employees , they had to deal directly with Dominick .
If they handled things poorly , the consequences could be much worse than embarrassment losing their jobs was a real possibility .
The last time Dominick had been angry , he had rejected Felixs proposal sixteen times in a row , leaving Felix feeling suffocated and the entire department on edge for weeks Now , it seemed that Dominicks mood was even worse than before .
No one knew who the unlucky person would be this time .
Inside the CEOs office the secretary nervously reported Dominicks schedule for the day , stealing glances at his expression , terrified of saying something wrong that might provoke his wrath , Mr.
Vanderbilt , heres your schedule for today , the secretary said , but Dominick remained silent , causing her heart to race .
Just then , Julian walked in and saw the distressed secretary .
He waved her out .
You can leave now The secretary practically fled from the office , feeling as if she had narrowly escaped death .
Dominick sat motionless in his chair , his mind replaying the scene from yesterday at the hospital , where Paisley had fiercely rejected him .
It felt as though a blunt knife was slowly tearing at his heart , cutting through both skin and flesh .
Juhan watched Dominicks expression , a hint of frustration gathering in his eyes .
Mr.
Vanderbilt , the meeting is about to start , he reminded him .
Okay , Dominick replied indifferently , his voice void of any emotion .
Julian turned and went to open the door for Dominick Just as he opened it , he heard Dominick speak to him .
I asked you to investigate what Paisley had been doing since she returned to Harrowfell .
Hows that going Julian paused for a moment .
He had completely forgotten about the task .
Or rather , he had never intended to investigate anything related to Paisley .
So when he learned that Paisley was the heir to Ancient Medical Arts and had even saved Paul , he was genuinely surprised .
But that didnt mean he would change his opinion of Paisley .
I didnt look into it , he answered truthfully .
Dominick stopped in his tracks .
