Drunk and Daring I Kissed a Tycoon novel Chapter 313

"You…" Vespera was taken aback, and for some inexplicable reason. She felt unsettled.

Luke's expression darkened ominously. Her softened gaze and flustered, timid demeanor infuriated him so much that he nearly ground his teeth. Did she really like Dominic that much?

"He can't be invited!"

"I am going to invite him," Vespera said, regaining her composure and shedding her earlier unease.

When she looked back at Luke, her eyes were emotionless once more.

"He's the only one who can't come!"

"He's the one who will be there."

"What's so great about him?"

"There's nothing he's not great at." Her voice trembled a bit.

Luke appeared as if he was about to lash out, his eyes fierce with anger. Vespera retreated two steps.

Even with Dominic's arrival boosting her confidence, Luke could still be terrifying when he lost control. If she could have physically matched him, she wouldn't have been stuck here going in circles with him.

Weren't there online resources from dog trainers about how to protect oneself if confronted by a large, aggressive dog on the street? Running wasn't advised. The more one ran, the more the dog would pursue. One also shouldn't show fear, staying calm was key... Yet deep down, fear still lingered in her heart.

A hand rested on her back, Dominic had already approached. Standing beside Vespera, he moved his hand forward, gently pulling her into his embrace.

Though his expression remained cold, his voice softened slightly. "Don't put any weight on your sprained foot."

Vespera's heart fluttered. She glanced up at him just as he lowered his head.

Then she heard him say, "Lean on me for now, and then we can have a detailed conversation with Mr. Munoz about my suitability."

Vespera remained silent, pressing her lips together as her face flushed pink. Luke was so furious he felt like he might spit blood.
