Samuel was in the study, and Fawn was lounging in the rooftop garden on the third floor.
Upon spotting Dominic, she stood up, her face lighting up with a wide grin. "What brings you here today? Did your dad ask you to bring Nancy back? That's why you're so excited, huh?"
Dominic's expression remained stoic.
Though he wasn't visibly angry, the absence of emotion on his face, combined with the intensity in his gaze, made him seem somewhat intimidating.
"Dominic, why are you looking at me like that?"
Fawn instinctively touched her face.
Dominic gestured politely with his hand. "Please, sit down."
Fawn sat back down, and Dominic followed suit.
"Have you had dinner? Would you like some honeydew?"
She picked up a slice of honeydew from the platter in front of her and offered it to him.
"Mom, I've fallen for someone. You must have figured it out by now, right?" Dominic suddenly said.
Fawn's hand paused in mid-air.
The two of them locked eyes.
A few moments of silence passed before Fawn nodded and smiled. "I heard your father mention it. He said you and Ms. Gildon are seeing each other. I told him not to spread rumors—she just got divorced, and rumors like that could damage her reputation."
"You're right," Dominic said. "If I care for her and decide to pursue her, I can't just walk away without taking responsibility. So, I'll marry her."
The final sentence wasn't a question—it was a definitive statement.
Dominic leaned back in his chair, his gaze dark and unwavering.
Fawn froze, her body stiffening.
