She Chose Him Now She Wants Me Back novel Chapter 214

Chapter 214

Obviously, this old man was no ordinary person. He walked along the sidewalk with his head lowered. A woman in front of him failed to notice him at all and passed straight through his body.

People crowded the street. Dominic considered the situation, then sat on a nearby stone bollard. He took out his phone and pretended to make a call.

“You’re not from Skyline City?” he asked.

When the man realized someone could see him, the wrinkles on his face tightened. Excitement and surprise flickered across his expression. “No. I’m from Skynorth City.”

Dominic studied him carefully. The man looked to be around 50. His back bent slightly, and his hands were thick with calluses, clear signs of a life spent doing hard labor.

“You came all the way from Skynorth to Skyline just to attend your daughter’s wedding?” Dominic asked.

“Not to attend.” The man’s expression collapsed as he murmured, “Not to attend… My girl hates me. I just want to watch her get married. Just one look. That’s enough…”

Dominic fell silent for a moment, then asked, “Is the wedding today?”

“Yes. Today. It starts at 1:00 p.m., sharp,” the man answered eagerly.

Dominic checked the time. It was already 11:30 p.m. He rose at once. “Wait here. I’ll get the car.”

With that, he walked into the hospital.

The man rubbed his hands together and paced in place, unable to contain his excitement.

Dominic headed to the parking lot and called Edward. “Is Abby still talking with Mr. Parker?”

“She is!” Edward said, barely containing his excitement. “Dominic, I think this deal might actually go through!”

“Really?” Dominic sounded surprised. The order was worth about 1.2 million dollars. If it closed, the commission would exceed 15,000.

Standing outside Mateo’s office, Edward peeked inside before replying, “Yeah. Abby and the director are chatting like old friends right now.”

“That’s great,” Dominic said with a laugh. “I need to take care of something, so I’ll drive the car away. You guys can take a taxi back to the company. I’ll reimburse you.‘

Edward protested at once, “What are you saying? If you need the car, just take it. Why are you being polite with your good friend?

Dominic laughed softly. “That’s my fault. Afternoon snacks are on me.”

“Now that sounds right.”

After hanging up, Dominic drove the car out. Once he helped the man into the passenger seat, he asked, “It’s the Grand Skyline Hotel, correct?”

The man nodded. “Yes. The Grand Skyline Hotel. Peony Hall.”

Dominic raised an eyebrow. Peony Hall was the Grand Skyline Hotel’s most prestigious banquet hall. Even a conservative estimate put the cost of such a wedding at tens of thousands of dollars.

He drove toward the hotel and asked, “What happened between you and your daughter?”

The man stiffened, then slowly lowered his head, as though the weight had become unbearable.
