She Left She Thrived She’s Worth Billions novel Chapter 362

“What kind of foolishness are you spouting?!”

Gregory shut down Dominic’s grand declaration with a dose of harsh reality.

“How did I, Gregory Hale, end up with a son who thinks with his heart instead of his head? Huh?”

On the other end of the line, Gregory was practically fuming.

First, it was Evelyn. Even though she was adopted as Dominic’s sister, he still had the nerve to sleep with her and have a daughter!

In truth, Gregory had long suspected that Lila was Dominic and Evelyn’s child.

He just hadn’t expected Dominic to be so stupid. Cheating on his wife with his adopted sister and fathering an illegitimate child was a life-ruining secret, yet he hadn't even bothered to hide it well.

Not only did Melanie find out, but she also had a a paternity test that left absolutely zero room for denial.

Moreover, Melanie had known about the affair for a long time but had kept it perfectly concealed.

Looking back now, it was highly likely that Melanie had been the one pulling the strings behind the Hale Group’s bankruptcy.

And through it all, Dominic, as Melanie’s husband, had remained completely oblivious.

“You are unbelievably stupid!”

Gregory was exasperated with his son.

He’d already paid the price for his obsession with Evelyn. Now, after Melanie had stripped the Hale family of everything, Dominic was claiming he was in love with her?

“Are you some kind of masochist?”

Despite the verbal lashing from Gregory, Dominic’s resolve was unshaken.

He was going to win Melanie back.

Winning her back was the best way to make amends and the greatest hope for his family’s comeback.

“Dad!”

Dominic couldn’t help but argue back.

“Melanie is furious right now, and the Hale Group is under intense public scrutiny… Divorcing her was a last resort… to avoid going to court and paying that fifty-billion-dollar settlement.”

“But… if the Hale Group is ever going to make a comeback, we need the Royce family. We need Melanie.”

“I’ve thought it through now… I love Melanie. I’ll win her over with my sincerity. You know how women can be soft-hearted, Dad. Besides, Melanie is a pampered rich girl. Who else would really be willing to build a life with her?”

“Persistence pays off. If I’m sincere enough, she’ll have to come around. It won’t be long. Once she cools down, she’ll definitely be moved by my efforts. When we get remarried, the Hale Group will have a chance again!”

Dominic spoke with growing excitement, already picturing the scene of his and Melanie’s second wedding.
