Billionaire’s Regret After Losing Her (Aurelia) novel Chapter 278

Chapter 278 Banned

Dominic turned to go find Aurelia.

But her people stopped him again and told him she was taking a nap. No one could disturb her right now.

Fury burned in his chest.

She claimed she wouldn’t divorce him, but was this how she planned to stay married?

His own home was crawling with strangers now, and they were all her people.

He was her husband, but he needed her permission just to see

her.

“I’ve got a five o’clock flight,” Dominic said. “Tell her I need to talk to her.”

“I’m sorry, but no one disturbs Ms. Sterling during her lunch break.”

It didn’t matter what Dominic said. Aurelia’s people had their orders, and they weren’t budging.

Take it or leave it-he could wait, or he could go.

waiting for him. Now the tables had turned, and then some.

Dominic closed his eyes and took a breath. “My flight leaves at

five.”

They wouldn’t even let his car through the gate, which meant he’d have to walk back out. What kind of mess was this?

“Can’t help you,” the guard said flatly.

The guy was completely unmovable, just like Dominic had been before. When Aurelia tried to talk to him about Lauren

back then, hadn’t he shut her down the exact same way?

Anger flared in his chest, hot and sharp.

He thought about forcing his way in, but he’d seen what her security team could do. If Aurelia didn’t want to see him, there was no getting through. Not a chance.

The humiliation of it made his blood boil even more.

In the end, he couldn’t talk to Aurelia about anything. Nothing got resolved.

He turned on his heel and stormed back downstairs, furious.

called, and it took almost forty minutes before Dominic finally

walked out.

Now that Dominic was standing in front of him, Jason had no idea what to say.

He’d never seen a man get screwed over this badly in a marriage.

Usually, it was women who got the short end of the stick, but who would’ve thought Dominic could marry some orphanage girl and still end up in this mess?

“Take me to the airport.” Dominic pressed his fingers against his throbbing temples.

“We can’t get to the airport,” Jason said.

Dominic had his eyes closed, but at those words, they snapped open. “What do you mean?”

“Smith Group banned us from entering Germany,” Jason explained.

Dominic stared at him. Smith Group banned them from Germany?

This trip was supposed to be about meeting with Smith

Group’s executives, and he needed to figure out why the hell 3/7

they were targeting him.

And now he couldn’t even get into Germany?

So what was he supposed to do about all the problems Hawthorne Group was facing right now?

Dominic couldn’t hear his own voice anymore, and his head was buzzing.

He kept asking himself why.

But right now, he couldn’t give himself an answer.

Yeah, why? What the hell was happening?

Jason said, “Hawthorne Group is in serious trouble this time.” His tone was heavy.

Dominic wanted to fix this mess, but he didn’t even know where to start.

His whole body radiated anger. Trouble?

“Did Sebastian personally order the blockade?” he asked.

Sebastian was the heir of the Smith Group, and he was the one calling all the shots now.

His power was practically above the Smith Group’s board of directors.

Whatever he decided didn’t need anyone else’s approval, and he didn’t need to hold meetings. He could make decisions completely on his own.

Jason said, “I’m not sure about that.”

He genuinely didn’t know.

They’d been guessing for a while that some executive at Smith Group was targeting them.

But now things had gotten so bad that Dominic couldn’t even fly to Germany to handle it personally.

That showed just how serious this problem was.

Whether Sebastian himself was behind it or not, they had no idea.

Dominic lit a cigarette, his irritation bleeding through every movement, and took two harsh drags before turning to Jason. “Take me to Fletcher Group.”

“Yes, sir.”

Grant had worked with Smith Group plenty over the years, so if anyone knew something about all this, it would be him.

By the time Dominic arrived at Fletcher Group, it was already five in the afternoon.

The trip back to Hawthorne Manor and then out again had eaten up his entire day.

He’d never noticed before how there weren’t enough hours in a day, but now he understood what people meant when they said time was everything.

Grant hadn’t wanted to see him, so Dominic went straight to Fletcher Group’s parking garage and waited for him there.

Grant’s expression was cold when he saw Dominic.

It stung, but Dominic had to admit Grant had always been like this with everyone.

Even back when they were close, Grant had never shown him any warmth.

And now, after everything that happened with Aurelia, things were even worse between them.

Grant spoke first, “I thought you’d decided we had no reason to see each other anymore.”

After all, there was no relationship left worth maintaining.

The words made Dominic’s chest tighten. “I need to ask you something.”

Grant stood there with his hands in his pockets and gave him an icy look.

Dominic stepped closer. “Why is Smith Group coming after me like this?”

Grant stayed silent.

So Dominic had finally figured it out.

Before Grant could respond, Dominic kept talking. “I can feel it -they want me dead. Who the hell is behind this?”

Dominic knew Smith Group was targeting him, but he had no idea who at Smith Group wanted him destroyed.
