Chapter 497
After a moment of thought, the bald man said, “What he’s truly capable of, we’ll only know after we fight him.”
A sharp glint flashed in Elijah’s eyes. He spoke coldly. “I’ll arrange it as soon as possible. When the time comes, show no mercy. Kill him outright.”
The bald man nodded without a word. For a brief instant, a vicious look crossed his face.

“Elijah…” Dominic murmured the name several times as he considered how to deal with this trouble.
Before he realized it, they had arrived downstairs at the company,
Just as Dominic was about to get out of the car, Lydia suddenly called out, “Dom!”
Dominic looked at her. “What is it?”
Lydia bit her lip and suddenly hugged him.
Dominic’s eyes froze for a moment, then softened.
At the command of his will, Lydia manifested physically out of thin air. She held him tightly and sobbed without stopping, her body trembling.
“Dom, thank you for helping me. Thank you for forgiving me…” Lydia’s tears slid down, and Dominic felt a cold dampness on his shoulder.
“I really regret it. Back then, if I hadn’t listened to Zachary and had trusted you instead, how good that would have been…” she said through her sobs.
Dominic’s expression turned complicated. He patted her shoulder. “It’s all in the past.”
Lydia cried for quite a while. Only then did she step back from Dominic’s embrace.
She returned to her spirit form, wiped the corners of her eyes, and gave him a small smile. “Dom, do you think I’ll meet you again in my next life?”
Dominic answered honestly, “I don’t know.”
Lydia pouted unhappily. “You’re annoying. Can’t you just lie to me?”
As soon as she finished speaking, her body began to turn translucent.
Dominic’s eyes trembled.
Lydia looked down at herself and understood. She lifted her head and spoke seriously. “Dom, do you know something?”
Dominic asked, “Know what?”
“I like you!”
