Drunk and Daring I Kissed a Tycoon novel Chapter 247

Chapter 147 

Vesperated her best to act natural, but a flood of memories still barged into her mind. Hereyes lost focus, and hercheeks turned red. She felt like dying she had no idea where the thoughts came from. 

“Anyway, it’s probably best if you stop drinking,” stammered Vespera as she was tongue–tied. 

Dominic didn’t call her out, Instead, he placed the glass down obediently. “Alright, I won’t drink anymore. I’ll listen to whatever you say 

Those woods were like elected hooks, tugging at Vespera’s heartstrings. For a moment, she looked dazed, and her face flushed as if she had put on blush. Dominic sensed Vespera’s unusualness. “Ms. Gildon, you didn’t drink any alcohol, so why do you look drunk? Your face is so red. Are you catching a cold?” 

He reached out and gentle touched her forehead and cheek with the back of his hand. The moment he leaned in, his irresistible masculine scent wrapped around her. Vespeta stood there, frozen, as her gar talled over Dominic’s lips, Adam’s apple, and collarbone. She believed that she had strong self–control and moral boundaries. She wasn’t man–crazy octations either. But he really needed to stop seducing her. She was close to losing her composure. 

“I’m fine!” Vespera quickly stepped back to shake off that tingling senation in her chest. She pressed her temple and thought that it had to be because she hadn’t been around a man infartoo long. She immediately tried to regain her composure, 

“Ms. Oudon, are you sure you’re fase?” Dominic stepped closer from bett 

Vespera dodged a little vigilantly “Imtotally fine. I’m just a bit tired ” 

Then, she changed the topic. “Mr. Reid, didn’t you say that if you lust, you would tell me where Jade’s grandmother is? You lost, so tell me.” 

“Let’s sit and talk” 

Dominic walked over to the couch and sat down. Instead of going over, Vespera sat on a barstool near the wine cabinet. 

Dominic looked at Vespera, who was seated what felt like a thousand miles away. ‘Ms. Gildon, at this rate, you might as well go sit by the restrooms and chat with me through a megaphone.” 

Vespers was at a loss for words. She then got up and sat down on the far edge of the couch Now, she wasn’t only afraid of Dominic. She was afraid of herself too Speechlessly, Dominic stared at Vespers for a while before saying seriously, “What you want to know is whether Jade’s grandmother is still alive and whether she‘ still living at her house, right?” 

Vespera didn’t hide her suspicion. Ismelled something rotten in her house. Calvert said it was a cat, but couldn’t help wondering. What if it wasn’t only a cat?” 

you i mean jade’s grandmother?! 

“Of course, it isn’t. Don’t let your imagination run wild.” 

“So, where did jade’s grandmother go?” 

“She passed away last work” 

Vespera froze for a moment as a wave of unexpected sadness rose in her heart. Tamara still passed away 

Dominic’s voice softened. “Jade doesn’t have any uncles. She only has an aunt. The house we visited was indeed Watson Manor, but the prison who greeted us was herelderly neighbor from next door. Jade paid her joo dollars to act as her grandmother. 

“As there wasn’t enough time to clean everything up properly, the yard was a mess. The window sills were dusty as well 

Vespera nodded. “What about her parents?” 

Dominic answered, “Her parents divorced. Her mother remarried, and her father died in an ardent the year before last. Her grandmother was taken in by her aunt Last year because she fell ill.” 

At that, everything suddenly made sense, Jade was already mentally unstable. Then, she lost her family members one after another. 

vespera had thought that when Jade was getting her face treated, her happiness was grauine, but she had probably just put opa mask as she was in despair. 

Perhaps from the very beginning, from the moment they showed up, Jade realized that her chance for revenge had esine. 

She had figured out the location Tina had said from the clues they offered. Back then, she didn’t know that Tina would also be there, so she used them as bait, hoping to lure Tina in. However, she didn’t know that Tina was already on her way. 

Tina was cruel and ruthless, but also arrogant. She never once took Jade seriously or paid attention to what the latter said otherwise, she wouldn’t have been so carriess 

“Thank you for explaining everything to me,
