Chapter 242 A Conversation Between Astrid and Dominic
How dare you keep avoiding us like we’re the plague? I’m so mad!
Dominic stood up. “Dad, you can head back if you’re done. I have a few things to take care of.”
“Dominic, you’re not going to go look for Tilda, are you?”
Dominic had been so focused on Tilda during the meal that he had barely touched his food.
Russell worried. If Dominic went to talk to Tilda, with her personality, he’d probably get humiliated.
He could still vividly remember the last time Tilda had Dominic; he had a complete breakdown and had to be hospitalized
Russell couldn’t let it happen again.
“Even if I wanted to see Tilda, with how much she hates me right now,
there’s no
way
she’d meet me.
“Dad, I’m going to see someone else. Don’t worry, I won’t cause you any more trouble.”
Dominic smiled at Russell and hurried
away.
Russell sighed heavily.

Since Dominic had put it that way, all he could do was trust him.
Astrid came by taxi–she didn’t bring her car.
Theo raised an eyebrow. “Astrid, want me to give you a ride back? Jarrett’s taking Zach home.”
“No, I’m fine… I’ll just take a cab myself—”
Before Astrid could finish, a figure came running out.
“Astrid!”
It was Dominic.
Astrid had expected this and had Jarrett and the others leave first.
“Um… Astrid, are you sure about this?”
Theo looked a little worried.
Jarrett and Zach watched Astrid with worried eyes.
After all, Queen didn’t have the best relationship with the Jensons.
Since Astrid was part of the Jensons, she could end up stuck in the middle.
“Well, he’s family. He’s not gonna hurt me, right? You can go.”
Then, Astrid walked toward Dominic.
When she saw him, she spoke calmly, “It’s been a while, Dominic.”
“Astrid, do you have a moment? I need to talk to you.”
“Okay.”
Jarrett and the others could only anxiously watch them go.
