Chapter 189 After confirming that Paisley had left safely .
Lucy withdrew her team .
She had no intention of staying in such a messy place any longer than Unecesar .
Despite the chaos , she wasnt worried in the slightest .
With Dominick present , the doubted the Sullivan and Jackman families would dare say a word Before leaving , however , she left a generous sum of money for the hotel to compensate for the damages .
The hotel received far more than the actual cost of repairs , so they gladly accepted without complaint .
The Sullivan and Jackman families , however , were left in a state of unter turmoil .
Gary , watching the whole debacle play out , was in an excellent mood , Grluning , he walked alongside Lucy and said , Ms.
Green , wait for me .
Lets discuss the lead role together on the way His words were a direct slap to Brittanys face , making it crystal clear that she had no chance of getting the role .
Furious .
Brittany wanted to chase after him and demand an explanation .
But just as she took a step forward , Gregory shot her a warning look Reluctantly , she returned to Christinas side , seething with resentment .
Meanwhile , Grayson tugged on Dominicks hand , his voice trembling with tears .
Dad , lets go find Mom .
I dont want to stay here anymore .
Shaken out of his daze .
Dominick took Graysons hand and began to leave .
Seeing them go .
Gregory tried to salvage the situation .
Mr.
Vanderbilt , its not what you think.
Paisley is my biological daughter .
How could 1 not care about her ? Its just that she was so stubborn before , making serious mistakes and refusing to admit them .

Thats why I had to discipline her .
I didnt think shed hold a grudge and cut off contact with us for so many years .
Seeing Dominick unmoved , Gregory followed after him desperately .
Ive always been worried about Paisley .
I couldnt find her or get in touch with ber .
When I ran into her recently , I thought she wasnt doing well on her own , so I wanted to help her find a match .
I chose the Jackman family because of their good conditions .
As for telling them not to be too nice to her , its because I know her temper .
I didnt want her to be spoiled .
I was only doing it for her own good .
Dominick stopped in his tracks , his expression complicated as he looked at Gregory .
His words sounded hauntingly familiar .
He , too , had said the same thing to Paisley countless times .
That he was doing it for her own good .
But had he ever truly listened to what Paisley wanted : Actually , he had .
In the beginning , when they were dating , Paisley had said she wanted a home .
So he gave her one .
But was that truly what she had theant Later , he became preoccupied with family business , socializing , and strategizing , but he completely neglected her .
Thinking he was acting in her best interest , he made decisions on her behalf When he didnt receive the response he expected , he assumed Paisley was simply being difficult , and step by step , the distance between them grew .
So thats how it is .
I cant believe it , he murmured , looking at Gregory with a bitter smile .
The irony of it all struck him deeply .
Dominick didnt respond to Gregorys explanation he didnt want to align himself with someone like Gregory .
Holding Graysons hand , he continued walking toward the exit .
Worried about Dominick seeking revenge later , the Jackmans rushed after him .
Dominick , this really has nothing to do with our family ! The Sullivans were the ones who approached us .
If youre upset , blame them , not us ! Gregory nearly collapsed from the jackmans words , so enraged he almost triggered a heart attack .
Christina , however , didnt care about her husbands wellbeing at all : Instead , she pulled Brittany along and ran after Dominick .
Mr.
Vanderbilt , wait ! You cant just leave like this .
What about Brittany ? Whats going to happen to Brittany ? But Dominick didnt even spare them a glance .
He simply picked Grayson up and strode out of the hotel .
At the hotel entrance , the driver was already waiting with the car door open .
Standing at the doorway , Dominick felt the light 172 E drizzle landing on his body .
It was really raining .
The rain felt so cold .
Chapter 189 When Paisley returned home , the drizzle had turned into a torrential downpour .
Serena and Maria had just finished dinner and were playing games , Sering Paisley return , Serena put down her toy and happily ran into her arms ..
Mommy , youre back ! Tes Paisley replied , holding Serena tightly .
At that moment , all the gloom in her heart disappeared .
The comforting scent of her daughter calmed her restless mind .
In this world , there were countless remedies , but only Serena could truly heal her .
Mommy , its raming outside , Serena said , pointing to the rain splattered window .
Yes , its raining really hard Paisley replied , unsure of the meaning behind Serenas comment .
When it rains , Max from next door hurts again , Serena said .
Paisley raised an eyebrow .
She remembered that ? Seeing her daughters concerned expression , Paisley fondly ruffled her hair .
Are you worried about Max ? Yes Serena nodded .
I like Max .
I dont want him to be in pain .
Momuny , can you go help him ? Maria walked over with an exasperated look .
She hasnt stopped talking about Max since you left .
Even while playing games , she kept glancing at the door , waiting for you to come back .
From her observations over the past few days , Maria felt that the men next door didnt seem like bad people .
One day , when the villa gardens water pipe broke , Leo came over to fix it without hesitation .
Although she couldve called maintenance , Leo had seen the issue and immediately offered to help , saying it was no trouble at all .
As for the man with the injured leg , every time he saw Serena , he would play with her for a while .
Despite his tall and imposing figure , he was so gentle when he spoke .
Maria couldnt blame Serena for liking him she found herself liking him too , Paisley looked at Maria and Serena in confusion .
What had happened over the past week that she didnt know about ? When did Maria and Serena become so close to the people next door ? Just then , the villas doorbell rang .
Maria opened the video intercom and saw Leo standing outside with an umbrella , his expression anxious .
Maria , is Paisley home ? Could you ask her to come over and check on my boss ? Leos voice was urgent as he spoke directly after seeing Maria on the intercom .
Uh , sure , well come right away : Maria replied .
Paisley was speechless .
Excuse me ? Did anyone ask for my opinion ?
