She Chose Him Now She Wants Me Back novel Chapter 338

Chapter 338

Dominic left the ward with a thoughtful expression. He also believed the Grants were not responsible. What he had done just now served only as a probe.

They had been entrenched in Skyline City for many years. Through long–term maneuvering, they had climbed to their current position. Officials and people from every sector had become tied to them through countless interests.

If they carried out something like this and it came to light, no one would shield them. Those high–level figures in Skyline City who had long maintained tacit and ambiguous relationships would be the first to tear them apart.

As long as they were not foolish, they would never do something like this.

The Sinclairs of Eastmere State offered a clear comparison. Even they had to show respect to the authorities. When they acted in secret, they still aimed for fair exchanges and made sure key figures received an explanation.

As this line of thought settled, Dominic suddenly frowned. ‘Could the person behind this be the same one who sent me the photographs?‘

The moment the idea formed, he stopped in his tracks. He began to analyze it carefully, step by step.

Anyone bold enough to set fire to a skyscraper had significant backing, but that backing could not be from Skyline City. It also remained unclear whether the target was White Cosmos No. 1 or his life.

Following this reasoning, could the culprit be from Eastmere State?

A woman surfaced in his mind.

‘Could it be her?‘ The idea still failed to fit.

After a long while, Dominic shook his head. First, he would go see that person, the scapegoat ordered to carry out the arson.

When he returned to his ward, Stephen and Jade were already gone.

Jewel asked anxiously, “He didn’t make things difficult for you, right?”

Dominic shook his head. He did not hide anything and replied calmly, “He wants White Cosmos No. 1.”

Jewel’s expression changed slightly. She nodded, her face solemn. “My sister mentioned this too. From her tone, the mastermind behind the arson is probably after White Cosmos No. 1 as well.”

An innocent man bore no guilt, but treasure invited crime.

When Dominic was still a nobody, he would never have brushed against matters like this. Now, White Cosmos No. 1 had only just entered the early stage of market release, yet someone had already set a skyscraper on fire.

“The potential of White Cosmos No. 1 is enormous,” Dominic said. “Stephen isn’t the only one watching it.”

Jewel nodded. “We need to be more careful from now on. Security has to be airtight. Fortunately, it was only the office. If it had been the factory…”

She shuddered without realizing it.

Dominic shook his head. “Unless the other side is completely insane, they won’t touch the factory.”

The factory operated in three shifts around the clock, with workers present at all times. A fire there would cause a true catastrophe.

Burning down a skyscraper sounded horrifying, but at least no one had died.

Under normal circumstances, two people should have died. The other party simply had not expected Dominic to be this abnormal.

With the company building destroyed, large amounts of materials had turned to ash. Recovery would take time, and jewelMed’s expansion would slow as a result.

Jewel kept a grave expression as she said, “I gave everyone in the company group two days off. I’ll be discharged tomorrow. Give me Mr. Moore’s number. I’ll coordinate with him about the office building.”

The office location mattered.

Dominic smiled faintly. “You don’t have to push yourself so hard. Let me ask you something. Are you scared?”

Jewel looked at him and paused. After a moment, she grinned. “With you here, what do I have to be afraid of?”

Her words carried another meaning.

Dominic smiled back. “That’s true. I’m the chairman. Even if they act, they’ll come after me first.”

“That’s not what I meant.‘ Jewel’s eyes trembled slightly, but she did not explain.

Dominic walked over to the hospital bed and started packing his belongings.

Jewel froze. “Hey, you’re leaving?”
