‘So this is her obsession,‘ Dominic thought. ‘Luckily, I warned her in advance that Zachary would target her family and planted the idea in her mind. Otherwise, this fixation might never have taken root.‘

In truth, he knew Zachary would most likely never touch Lydia’s family.

‘I really am a terrible person, even deceiving a ghost.‘

Embarrassed, Dominic rubbed his nose and said, ‘It’s all in the past. Your next life will be better.”

Lydia paused. “I know you’re trying to comfort me, but that doesn’t sound right.”

Dominic smiled. “Don’t worry. The person who killed you will be caught.”

Lydia nodded, then hesitated. An eager look crossed her face. “Dom, can you help me?”

“With what?”

“Protect my family.” Lydia bit her lip. “I’m afraid Zachary will go after them. That bastard is capable of anything, and the Grants of Skyline City have the resources to back him up.”

She had been with Zachary for a long time. She knew that to the Grants, human life meant nothing.

Their power ran deep and wide. With vast wealth at their disposal, they could always find desperate people willing to do their bidding.

Dominic studied her in silence. After a long moment, a cold smile touched his lips. “Why should I help you? What’s in it for me? A few days ago, you were trying to send me to prison.”

Lydia’s face darkened.

She lowered her head. “I’m sorry, Dom. I know an apology won’t change anything, but I still need to say it. I didn’t want to hurt you. Zachary forced me. I refused at first, but he threatened me. I was afraid. I didn’t dare disobey him.”

“That’s no excuse,” Dominic said evenly. “No matter how noble it sounds, once you’ve done it, it’s done. Black can’t be turned into white.”

“I know.” Lydia’s gaze dimmed. “Just consider this my plea. I have no other choice. I don’t want my family to suffer because of me. Help me, and in my next life, I’ll serve you like a beast of burden.”

“Serve me like a beast of burden?” Dominic sneered. “Keep dreaming. Your family has nothing to do with me. If something happens to them, that’s on you. They’ll just be paying your debts.”

Lydia trembled.

After a long silence, she shook her head with a bitter smile. “You’re right. This is my fault. I did terrible things. Maybe this is retribution.”

She drew a steadying breath. “Let’s set that aside. I have evidence of Zachary’s illegal activities. I can give it to you. You can send him to prison.”

She assumed he would not refuse.
