Dominic was even sharpe than Thomas had imagined

But how had he figured out everything else? The calculated way Thomas had approached him, the quiet manipulation of his subordinates, even the scheme to have Selena seduce him….
How much did he actually know?
Thomas couldn’t stop replaying everything in his head combing over each move he’d made, trying to find the exact moment where he’d slipped up–where Dominic had caught on.
But no matter how hard he thought, he couldn’t find it.

In the end, all he could do was chalk it up to one thing: Dominic’s insight was terrifying.
“I’ve known for a long time,” Dominic said simply, barely glancing at him.
He’d known since the moment he first heard Jean’s inner thoughts.
“Is that so?” Thomas’s face twisted slightly. His lips curved into a bitter, rigid smile. “So all this time, you must’ve thought I was a complete joke.”
His feelings toward Dominic were complicated.
Yes, he’d wanted to use him. But there was a part of him that genuinely admired him, too.
Even if his intentions had never been pure, there were moments… where he had learned from Dominic. Respected him.
And now he realized Dominic had seen through him all along.
The memory of their past interactions made him feel ridiculous.
Like a clown.
“Whether or not you were a joke doesn’t matter,” Dominic said coldly. His voice was calm, but his tone carried weight. “What matters is-”
“You’re finished, Thomas.”
“Go confess. Go repent,” he added, with the unshakable authority of someone who had already won. “Getting a middle schooler to take the fall for you? You’re pathetic.”
Thomas’s eyes flickered. His fists clenched at his sides.
Suddenly, Selena tormed forward, glaring at Dominic with wide, furious eyes. “What the hell are you saying? My brother would never confess-!”
Dominic narrowed his eyes and called her name–just once.
