Camilla giggled and said, "Honestly, I think that's the best decision too. But Dominic, don't you think Nyla might resent you for it? Her mom passed away so early-right now, you're all she has left." Dominic's voice turned cold. "Her mother's been gone for years. To be honest, I barely feel anything about it anymore. Sure, Nyla's my biological daughter, but if I'm being blunt, I never felt much for her emotionally.
"Now that you're carrying my heir-and it's confirmed to be a boy-once he's born, you and our son will be the most cherished members of the Goth family." Both of them wore blissful smiles, completely lost in their fantasy of a perfect future.

"Mr. and Mrs. Goth, Ms. Goth 's back!" Dominic frowned with displeasure. “Back already? That was quick. Don't tellshe failed?" His tone turned vicious as he clenched his jaw. "If she screwed up, I'll make sure she pays. I won't let that ungrateful brat off easy." Camilla reached out and tried to soothe him. "Easy now, darling. It might not be a failure. If you ask me, she probably pulled it off. Con, let's go see what's going on." Without waiting for the guards to finish explaining, the couple walked out of the garden smiling, expecting good news.
Over in the grand living room, the second Dominic and Camilla stepped into view, they were met by the sight of several unfamiliar faces already waiting in the living room.
"Who the hell are you people?" Dominic snapped without hesitation. "Showing up uninvited to our home? This is way out of line-get out now!" Camilla blinked in confusion, then narrowed her eyes. "Wait... aren't you with Moonlit Apothecary?" She caught sight of Francesca and Andrew, and her heart instantly filled with dread.
At that moment, Nyla stepped out and walked up nervously. "Dad, I brought Dr. Aicker and Dr. Lloyd here. I asked them to come." Dominic's face turned purple with rage. Bringing them here could only mean one thing, and the outcwas obvious.
He could not help but wonder what his rebellious daughter was planning. Was she really bringing outsiders in to turn on her own family?

Dominic's face twisted in pain and fear. When he looked up and saw clearly who was standing before him, his whole body trembled. "Dylan Garner? W-What do you want from us? I don't think the Goth family has any bad blood with South City, right?"
Dylan replied coolly, "That's right-we don't. But just because we've had no beef doesn't mean we can't pay pay you a visit Mr. Lloyd wants a word with you. So, I'd suggest you think twice about what comes next." With a mocking grin, Dylan stepped aside to reveal the man standing behind him.
Dominic's eyes locked onto him and instantly flared with anger. "So you're m Andrew Lloyd, huh? Xve heard Pall ve about how you're making waves in Jayrodale lately. You've gotten so cocky you don't even care about the old families anymore. "But the Goth family is still a respectable name. Marching into our hlike this-don't you think you've gone too far?" Andrew remained unfazed. "Too far? Nah. This is just standard procedure for me." Dominic roared, "You arrogant punk! The Goth family never did anything to provoke you!
