Chapter 482
"Alright. I'll go over," answered Austin without hesitation.
Because of what happened to Tina, the Sowle family hated the Munoz family. They absolutely despised Luke.
They believed that everything only happened because Tina got together with Luke.
However, Tina was the one who pursued Luke in the beginning. She had brought it on herself. Over the past few
weeks, Austin had been working behind the scenes so that she could be spared from a death sentence.
Considering what she had done, that was the best outcanyone could hope for. And yet, she just couldn't
stop pushing her luck. There was only so much he could do.
With a tired sigh, Austin rubbed his face and left the study. As he headed downstairs, he saw his parents rushing
out of the house together.
It was 11:00 pm. Where could they possibly be going this late? And more importantly, Claire was out on bail. She
shouldn't even leave the house at this time.
Austin quickened his pace to catch up, but by the the got outside, their car was already pulling out of the
driveway.
With a frown, he reached out for his phone to call his father, but before he could dial, a thought struck him.
Could it be that person had cto collect her dues?
Shoving his phone back into his pocket, Austin got into his car and began trailing his parents. At the stime,

The next day, before heading to the office, Vespera brought her suitcase to the penthouse and placed it in the
guest room, the sone she had stayed in before.
Raymond had prepared a beautiful and normal breakfast. After breakfast, Dominic drove Vespera to work.
When they arrived and stepped out of the car, they ran into Alex. This time, their eyes met calmly.
In Alex's mind, he thought, "I'm tired of this."
Vespera seemed to be done as well as she thought, "Think what you want."
"Mr. Reid, Ms. Gildon, good morning," greeted Alex with a bright smile as he fell into step beside them.
Vespera returned a smile and replied, "Mr. Smith, good morning."
Dominic gave Alex a nod. While walking, he asked, "Alex, what did you have for breakfast? Why do you sound
like you're trying to flirt?"
Alex was rendered speechless as his expression twitched.
At the time, Vespera just figured Alex was awkward. Later, thanks to office gossip, she got the full story. It turned
out that Alex had been keeping a 20-year-old mistress on the side behind his wife's back. s
He bought the mistress a house and a car. He even recommended jobs to her parents. At her grandfather's 70th
birthday, he wished her grandfather a happy birthday and addressed her grandfather like his own.
That morning, Alex had just gotten back from a secret date. It was no wonder Dominic's casual jab had rattled
him, as he was already guilty.
The three of them stepped into the elevator. Feeling uneasy, Alex scrambled for a new topic before Dominic
could say anything else. He
said, Mr. Reid about the you matte askedto discuss with MoSowle, it is currently in progress." s
"That's good to hear," replied Dominic with a nod.
Vespera was confused. What matter? The loan? Wasn't that already settled? Was there something else going on?
Nevertheless, she didn't ask any questions.
Alex reached his floor first. When he stepped out, he cast one last glance back at Dominic. Then, the elevator
door closed.
"Aren't you curious what | asked Mr. Smith to discuss with them?" Dominic asked, looking at Vespera.
Vespera shook her head and answered, "Not really."
Dominic questioned, "Are you sure?"
"If it's something | need to know, I'll know about it when the tis right," responded Vespera.
Dominic chuckled. He seemed to like that answer.
As the elevator door opened and
they stepped out, Dominic said casually, It's nothing big. Mr. Sowle and Mr. Munoz had talked to me
before about getting Tavian

to invest in their joint projectol said no back then, but now, I'm reconsidering. If there's money to be made, why
not make it together?" s
Upon hearing that, Vespera was surprised. Dominic was going to invest in Luke's and Austin's project? Why did
Dominic's attitude suddenly change? It felt like Dominic was trying to win them over. But why?
