Chapter 186 The sudden development left everyone in the room bewildered .
Before they could process what was happening , they saw Dominick already holding Paisley in his arms .
For those present , this scene was as earth shattering as a meteor collision .
Sonny Brittany slowly approached Grayson , pointing at Paisley and whispering urgently , What did you just call her ? Grayson stepped back , looking at Brittany with disgust as grease and broth dripped from her face and clothes .
Mom .
Shes my mom .
Earlier in the restroom , Dominick had said she was Paisleys sister .
But she didnt look like her at all .
To him , she looked like a sneaky thief .
Hearing Grayson call Paisley Mom again made the Sullivan family trio uneasy .
Christinas face turned ashen , her heart in turmoil , leaving her momentarily frozeni .
Gregorys face was pale , his cheeks trembling as emotions surged within him .
He stared at Paisley in disbelief .
Brinany clenched her teeth , her expression filled with rejection .
Impossible ! Dont lie ! she snapped at Crayson , her tone sharp .
How could Paisley be your mom Paisley was nothing more than her defeated rival , an outcast from the Sullivan family .

She was worthless , a disgrace to the Sullivan family , someone theyd abandoned without regret There was no way she could be Graysons mor .
It was absolutely impossible .
I told you she is my mom ! Paisley is my mom ! Graysons anger flared .
Brittanys words had struck a nerve .
Paisley had really left him , refused to see him , and didnt even think of him .
The emotional gap left him deeply hurt .
And now , Brittanys words only reinforced the painful truth that his mom had abandoned him .
This made Grayson despise Brittany even more .
His face showed undisguised loathing as he glared at her .
The intensity of Graysons disgust shook Brittany .
She took two steps back , retreating to Christinas side with a mix of unease and resentment .
Paisley being Graysons mom also meant she was Dominicks ex wife Christina and Brittany exchanged glances , reading the same shocked realization in each others eyes Gregory , too , had caught on , and a faint sense of regret began to creep into his heart .
Gary , after his initial shock , suddenly felt relieved .
At first , hed worried that Paisley might clash with Dominick because of Brittany But now , the situation seemed to have taken a promising turn .
It seemed nothing was ever certain until the very end .
Meanwhile , the Jackman family trio was the most terrified .
Keith and Marianne , who had been arrogant earlier , now looked pale and subdued They shielded Baron behind them , covering his mouth to keep him from making any noise , desperately trying to minimize their presence .
Barons disheveled appearance made it clear how brazen and obnoxious he must have been in the small private room earlier .
Keith and Marianne knew their son well he had always been a bit of a pervert when it came to women , But those women had always been from less prominent backgrounds , easy for the Jackman family to control .
However , it was evident that Paisley was different Now , they just hoped no one would notice them , so they could quietly slip away .
As for Barons beating they could only chalk it up to bad luck .
Paisley hadnt expected to encounter Dominick while teaching the Sullivan family a lesson .
He was clinging tightly to her , refusing to let go no matter how hard she pushed Dominick , let me go , Paisley demanded , struggling as she tried to shove him away .
But Dominick was like an immovable wall .
His body was firm .
his arms like steel bars locking her in place .
No , I wont , Dominick murmured , his voice muttled but resolute .
Instead of letting go , he held her even tighter .
Paisley , how long are you going to disappear this time ? Why are you always so cruel to me ? Paisleys patience quickly ran out .
Lowering her voice , she warned coldly , Dominick , dont make me slap you in front of everyone .
Dominick was speechless .
As expected , die threat worked .
From past experience , Dominick knew Paisley was the type to follow through on her words .
If she said shed slap him , she absolutely would , The fact that she even bothered to warn him this time was already a gesture of mercy .
1/2 Chapter 186 Reluctantly , though unwilling , Dominick finally let her go .
Standing off to the side like a wounded puppy , he looked pitiful Paisley couldnt be bothered to glance at his pathetic expression , completely baffled as to why he seemed so upset .
Everything hed endured today was clearly the resub of his own actions .
As Paisley adjusted her clothes , disheveled from Dominick earlier , her focus wavered for just a moment just enough for a plate to come flying straight at her head .
Some of the bodyguards were focused on the Jackman family , while others were blocking Gregory and Brittany .
None had anticipated the short and plump Christina to act .
Taking advantage of the chaos , Christina grabbed a large plate nearby and hurled it directly at Paisley .
Watch out ! Lucy shouted urgently .
Paisley sensed the danger , but by the time she looked up , it was too late .
In a split second , a man moved in front of her , raising an arm to shield her head while pulling her into an embrace .
Then , with his back turned , he book the full brunt of the plates impact .
The plate hit Dominicks back with a heavy thud , making him grunt in pain .
But his eyes stayed on Paisley .
Are you okay ? he asked Im fine .
What about you ? Paisley replied .
Shed heard the sound of the impact it must have hurt Dominick shook his head but gave a completely unexpected response .
Paisley , are you worried about mer Yeah , worried , she admitted casually .
I dont want you dying in front of me Itd be bad luck .
Paisley- Dominicks face fell immediately .
Why was she suddenly so unlikable ? Lucy was furious .
She glared at Christina .
Are you insane ? Are you trying to kill her ? Christina ignored Lucy , her eyes blazing with rage as she glared at Paisley .
You vile woman ! Did you do this on purpose ? Paisley pushed Dominick aside , her cold gaze locking onto Christinas furious one .
Do what on purpose ? Christina looked at Paisley as if she were her worst enemy .
Dont play dumb ! You came here to ruin everything , didnt you ? You deliberately ruined Brinanys chance ! Then , with a venomous tone , she shouted , You came back to steal Brittanys man , didnt you ? Sister Brittanys eyes brimmed with tears , making her look like a wounded , pitiful deer .
I know you resent me for taking Mom and Dads love , but did you really have to destroy my happiness today ?
