Chapter 491
This was his male possessiveness asserting itself.
Even though Dominic did not want to admit he was acting like a jerk, Jessica, Autumn, and even Jewel all held a place in his heart.
The mere thought of them being with other men filled him with a deep sense of regret.
And it was not only them. Even Isabella, whom he often found irritating, would likely stir the same reaction if she actually ended up with another man.

Isabella stiffened and pressed her lips together. “Don’t worry about that right now. Something just

Isabella’s face brightened when she heard his concern. “Don’t worry, honey, I-”

Before she could finish, Dominic asked, “What about Katherine?
The joy on Isabella’s face vanished at once, replaced by a trace of jealousy. She already went to
Lily.”
Dominic nodded. With Brian and Max accompanying her, he felt somewhat reassured.
He then went to the bathroom, splashed water on his face, and asked, “Where are Jewel and Autu
*Jewel wanted to check the factory, and Autumn went with her. They lefta while ago Isabella replied dissatisfaction clear in her tone.
Dominic nodded, turned off the light, and left the office.
Isabella followed behind him, muttering, “Autumn, Autumn. Calling him so intimately bumph
Dominic turned and frowned. “What are you mumbling about?”
Isabella’s heart tightened, and she answered quickly, “N–Nothing!”
