The Billionaire And His Son Want Me Back (Paisley) novel Chapter 91

The reason Dominick had left so early that morning was a call from the mountain sanatorium. Paul's condition had taken a turn for the worse.

On the drive back, Dominick's silence filled the car with a heavy tension that no one dared break.

"Dom..." Marissa glanced at him with gentle concern. "Don't worry, okay? Grandpa Paul's going to be fine. I've already reached out to Mr. Hansen. He's the best in the field, and he's heading to the hospital right now."

"Thanks." Dominick's voice was distant as he stared out the window, clearly lost in thought.

Marissa knew better, though. Paul's condition wasn't the only thing weighing on Dominick's mind right now.

"You know," she said with fake playfulness. "Nathaniel and Ms. Sutton looked pretty good together just now. If you ask me, I think he's actually interested in her."

In the car window's reflection, his brows furrowed deeply. Without missing a beat, Dominick pulled out his phone and dialed a number.

Over at Beaumont Villa in Harrowfell, Morris Beaumont, Nathaniel's brother, was just sitting down to breakfast.

A call from Dominick at this hour was unexpected, but he answered with a pleasant tone anyway, "Mr. Vanderbilt, what can I do for you?" After all, with their companies about to partner up, he had to play nice with Vanderbilt Group's heir.

Dominick cut straight to the chase. "Nathaniel's got too much free time on his hands. Find him something to do."

Morris froze. He'd expected Dominick's call to be about their partnership deal, not about Nathaniel.

'Didn't Nathaniel just have his club's grand opening?' Morris thought. 'He even invited his old high school crew, and Dominick was there too.'

"Can I ask what happened?" Morris treaded carefully.
