Drunk and Daring I Kissed a Tycoon novel Chapter 344

Dominic didn't argue with Fawn any further.

"I came to hear your thoughts and understand your position. Now that I do, I'll be leaving."

He turned and walked toward the door.

As he moved away, his expression darkened.

This was more complicated than he had anticipated.

On his way downstairs, he ran into Samuel, who had just exited the study.

"Dominic! You're here. Come, let's play a round of chess," Samuel said with a chuckle, reaching out to place a hand on his son's shoulder.

Dominic let out a cold laugh. He brushed Samuel's hand aside and walked past him without a word.

A sense of unease crept over Samuel.

Dominic had never been this openly cold before—it had to be because of Vespera.

Samuel glanced downstairs before turning and heading back upstairs.

Fawn sat there, her face marked with worry and unease.

As soon as she saw Samuel, she hurried over to him and wrapped her arms around him, her expression filled with frustration.

"Dominic yelled at me. He even threatened me," she said.

Samuel wrapped his arms around her. "Dominic is sharp. If you bring Nancy back now to stir up trouble, he'll figure out it's our plan.

"You should be upfront with him and tell him we don't approve. Let's apply some pressure together and see how he reacts."

"We can't do that. You know Dominic's temper," Fawn said, lifting her head from his chest. "If we confront him head-on, he'll shut us down with one sentence and close the door on us for good.

"I've thought it through. We can't force him. Honestly, Ms. Gildon seems more level-headed than Dominic right now. We should step back and let her figure things out on her own. Let her realize the situation and walk away from him herself.

"With Dominic as he is, trying to get him to break up will only backfire. The only way this ends is if Ms. Gildon chooses to leave on her own."
