The Scorned Heiress's Hidden Empire (by Jade Quinn) novel Chapter 261

Chapter 261

In terms of closeness, Dominic was definitely the one closest to Chris. But Zac had grown up with them too. They were like brothers. He couldn’t just stand by and watch Zac push himself this hard. What if he really worked himself to death?

Dominic was already sick with worry over both of them. Seriously, what had he done to deserve this?
