Billionaire’s Regret After Losing Her (Aurelia) novel Chapter 220

Chapter 220 Coming After You

He initially intended to hand the phone to Dominic, but considering Eleanor’s uncontrollable rage on the line, Jason could only lean in and give Dominic a quick, hushed summary.

Dominic’s expression, already dark, turned stormier.

His breath caught as he looked at Jason. “All her doing?”

“Her” meant Aurelia.

Jason nodded. “With so many incidents happening at once, it has to be.”

In that moment, Dominic understood why Eleanor sounded ready to have a stroke.

He himself was seething with rage.

This woman…

So she really did come back for revenge. Did she really hold that much hatred for everything the Hawthorne family did back then?

All those properties… and she just wiped them out without a second thought.

In a single day, she had dealt a massive blow to the entire Hawthorne family’s wealth.

Dominic pinched the bridge of his nose. “We’ll adjourn the meeting for today.”

“Will there even be a next meeting? Or will Hawthorne Group still exist by then?” one of the directors, Ronan Byrne, said discontentedly as Dominic made to leave without presenting any solutions.

Dominic shot Ronan a cold glare.

But Ronan continued, “Mr. Hawthorne, if you are too preoccupied with domestic affairs, perhaps you should step down as executive director. Let someone who has the time handle company matters.”

Dominic fell silent, while Jason froze,

The already tense atmosphere in the boardroom plummeted to freezing point.

Clearly, the recent corporate turmoil was severe.

Every director was aware of the chaos Aurelia had been causing within the Hawthorne family lately.

“Mr. Byrne, that’s an overstatement,” Jason interjected.

Ronan sneered, “Overstatement? We supported the Hawthorne family’s management because we believed

Mr. Hawthorne had skills.

“When we built this company with his grandfather, we risked everything we had. We can’t just watch it burn

now.”

Dominic’s voice cut through, sharp and cold. “Just how much was your ‘everything’?”

His pointed question instantly deflated Ronan’s bluster.

“What are you implying?” he asked.

Dominic stated, “You all know exactly how much the company has paid out to you over the years. If you’re

trying to use that as leverage now, you’re welcome to cash out and leave.”

Jason was speechless, and the shareholders were all

stunned.

Dominic had truly lost his patience.

He was already dealing with the Smith Group, and now these old fools at the company were causing trouble.

Did they really think he was unaware of their schemes all these years?

Dominic stood up abruptly, sweeping his laptop and pen off the table.

The crash as they hit the floor was as jarring as the warning in his eyes.

Dominic was fed up.

The Smith Group was a headache, but the drama at home

was even worse.

As Lucas arrived looking for Dominic, he saw him storming out.

“Dominic? You’re leaving already?” Lucas asked.

Dominic said coldly. “I haven’t had a proper and to my

workday in forever. Can’t I leave for once?”

“Why are you taking it out on me?” Lucas said, bewildered.

Dominic shot him a look but said nothing, striding ahead.

Lucas hurried to catch up. “I need to talk to you.”

Dominic said, “Handle her for me, and I’ll agree to anything you want.”

“Handle who?” Lucas asked, confused by the vague

statement.

Then it clicked. “Wait. You don’t mean Aurelia, do you? No way. I can’t handle that. Not a chance.”

Lucas immediately refused.

Given the life-and-death history between Aurelia and the Hawthorne family, there was no way he could fix that.

Dominic said nothing, just fixed Lucas with an icy stare.

The look sent a shiver down Lucas’ spine. “You can’t 13:11

handle her either. can you?”

Dominic’s already grim expression darkened further.

This kind of “inability to handle” felt like a mark of weakness for a man.

And with Aurelia, he had indeed proven powerless.

She was beyond being appeased-she was completely out of control now.

Lucas took Dominic’s silence as confirmation.

He couldn’t help but say, “Honestly, you deserve it.”

Dominic’s gaze turned even colder.

“What have you all been doing lately?” Lucas pressed. “About Lauren losing the baby… You don’t still think Aurelia did it, do you?”

Dominic had been drunk the other night, but he was sober now.

If Dominic still believed it was Aurelia, Lucas didn’t know what to say.

“It’s more complicated than the baby now,” Dominic sighed.

“Yeah, I know. The problem isn’t that you’re blaming her for the baby anymore. It’s her coming after you, right?”

Dominic had no reply.

It was true.

Right now, Aurelia, at the Hawthorne Manor, was the one causing all the trouble.

The elevator arrived.

Dominic stepped in, and Lucas followed. “So how is she causing trouble?” Lucas asked instinctively.

“Has your father’s workload made you lose touch?” Dominic snapped.

How could Lucas not know about the major incidents across New York today?

Lucas said, “Swamped, actually. He’s pushing me to take over the company. He is so eager to retire.”

Personally, Lucas had no desire to run the company.

Being as busy as Dominic meant no time for a social life.

Downstairs, they ran into Alice, who was just returning from somewhere.

When his eyes met hers, Lucas’ gaze softened noticeably.

Alice, however, seeing him with Dominic, let out a soft, disgruntled snort.

The sound was quiet-Dominic missed it, but Lucas heard it clearly.

This girl…

Dominic walked straight out. Lucas trailed behind, passing by Alice.

He tried to catch her eye a few times, but she turned her face away with a sniff.

Helpless, Lucas quickened his pace to follow Dominic.
