< Billionaire’s Regret After Losing Her
Chapter 124 Something Wrong With Project Meridian
Grant stood with both hands in his pockets.
Wearing his gold-rimmed glasses, he appeared outwardly composed, refined, every inch the courteous gentleman.
But Dominic knew better. He knew exactly how ruthless Grant
could be.
Grant said, “Yes. We are having lunch together.”
Dominic said nothing.
The air froze once again.
The sense of danger in Dominic’s eyes spilled out bit by bit.
“Where?”
Grant said calmly, “I think instead of figuring out where we are eating, you should first go figure out whether Lauren actually has depression.”
Dominic fell silent.

Finally, the corners of his mouth lifted slowly. “After all, everything you have done for her over the past six months’s been because Adrian died, and she supposedly developed depression from the shock. Isn’t that right?”
With that, Grant turned and walked away.
Before leaving, he shot Edmund a look.
Edmund understood immediately and nodded.
Dominic tried to chase after him, but Edmund stepped forward to block his path. “Mr. Hawthorne, your car is outside.”
Grant had already taken the villa elevator down to the garage.
Furious, Dominic shoved at Edmund. “Get out of my way!”
Since Aurelia was the one who invited Grant to lunch, he was obviously going to see Aurelia.
Dominic intended to go and drag her back.
However, just as Edmund was pushed aside, he reached out and held Dominic back as well.
The elevator doors closed.

Dominic’s eyes turned red with rage. “I told you—”

“Mr. Fletcher is right,” Edmund said evenly. “Rather than seeing a woman who wants to divorce you, you would be better off first dealing with the problem that made her want a divorce in the first place.”
Dominic froze.
The problem that made Aurelia want a divorce?
That could only be Lauren.
So what now? She wanted to drive Lauren out of the
Hawthorne family completely? What an outrageous thought.
Dominic’s anger left him unsteady.
Grant was already gone.
Dominic was escorted out by Edmund. The moment he got
into his car, he turned the wheel sharply and went after Grant’s
vehicle.
But Grant was driving fast. Once Dominic reached the main road, there was no sign of him at all.

Jason immediately felt a headache coming on when he heard it was Grant’s vehicle.
“These past few days, Mr. Fletcher’s routes have been very difficult for us to trace.”
“Track it. Now.”
What did it matter whether it was difficult or not? They had to track it.
Inviting Grant to lunch?
Aurelia really was something else.
Yesterday, she fed him poisoned food, and today she was inviting Grant to lunch.
The more Dominic thought about it, the angrier he became.
Jason heard the cold edge in his voice and didn’t dare argue further. “Understood. I will look into it immediately.”
The call ended.
Dominic called Aurelia again.

dialing anyway, venting his anger through the futile attempts.
About ten minutes later, Jason called back.
“Mr. Hawthorne, we cannot find him.”
The moment the words “cannot find him” came through the line, Dominic nearly smashed his phone.
“What can you do, exactly? Huh?”
Jason went silent.
Hearing Dominic lose his temper, Jason froze briefly and then hurriedly explained, “As soon as Mr. Fletcher left the villa, Miles cut off all traffic cameras along the route. After entering the city, his car only appeared once on Redmont Road, and after that, we lost track of it completely.”
Dominic understood immediately. Grant had done this on purpose to avoid him.
“Only appeared on Redmont Road?” Dominic ground out.
“Yes.”
“Then search everything around Redmont Road.”

have lunch with Aurelia made Dominic’s anger explode.
He ended the call and slammed his fist hard into the steering wheel.
Aurelia… Fine. Good. Very good.
His mind flashed back to yesterday, to the moment she fed him the poisoned meal without the slightest hesitation. Her hand had not trembled once.
She didn’t hesitate at all. Not even for a second.
His phone vibrated.
It was a call from the company.
Lately, Aurelia had been causing so much turmoil that even his work had suffered.
Dominic answered curtly. “What is it?”
“Mr. Hawthorne, you need to come to the office immediately. There is a problem with Project Meridian.”
Dominic frowned. “What happened?”

through.
How could something suddenly go wrong?
“The project was sabotaged. It is too complicated to explain over the phone. Please come as soon as possible.”
The caller’s tone was grave, clearly indicating serious trouble.
The call ended.
Dominic’s temples throbbed violently. Furious, he punched the steering wheel again.
Then he started the car and headed straight for the office.
He wanted to see who had the nerve to mess with Hawthorne
Group.
