“Um, it wasn’t my idea; it was Old man White’s idea to come!” Tristan quickly clarified.
Dominic gave Hector a gloomy look.
“It’s not just that, bro, I…”
“Not only did you want to come, but you also said you wanted to take a ride in bro Dom’s new car!”
“Tristan!” Hector felt like he couldn’t get a word in edgewise.
Dominic coldly said, “Didn’t I tell you not to wander around here when you have nothing to do? What if Janey sees you?”
Hector was speechless, while Tristan suppressed a smile at the corners of his mouth.
“Forget it, Brother, he’s not very clever. Don’t bother with him!”
Hector: “…”
the way, your new car is really beautiful!” Tristan grinned like a sly fox, “Isn’t it Janey’s taste?” This time, a hint of a smile appeared on Dominic’s face.
Tristan continued, “Janey does have great taste. Brother, your previous cars weren’t very practical, but this car’s performance and style, especially the color, are a perfect match for you!”
Hector couldn’t help but show disdain.
But Dominic was in a good mood and even suggested taking them for a drive.
So Tristan finally got to the point, “This time we came to see you for a reason… Let’s find a quiet place to talk.”
Dominic nodded and went back into the store to get the car keys from Jane.
“Are you going out?”
“Yes… taking a ride with some friends.” Dominic smiled lightly.
Linda was inside the store, guarding the oven like a little glutton. When she heard this, she immediately understood that those two guys had come to see her brother.
She handed him the keys and casually asked, “Which friends?”
“Just…” Dominic thought for a moment, “Tormer cellmates!”
Linda almost burst into laughter; she almost sprayed coffee everywhere.
“Cellmates?” Jane was taken aback. “Is it the guy who called you to borrow money last time?”
FIL
“Honey, didn’t you say you didn’t want to have any contact with them anymore?”
Linda mischievously looked at him, waiting to see how he’d explain!
But Dominic was Dominic; he just said, “They’ve turned over a new leaf and are starting fresh. I think they deserve a chance.”
Linda almost choked on her coffee.
Jane quickly handed her a tissue and patted her back gently, not taking Dominic’s words too seriously

If Aaron could turn over a new leaf, then those people should be okay too.
Besides, she had always believed that her husband’s judgment wouldn’t he wrong!
“Alright, you should go then!” Jane smiled, “Tll take care of the store!”
Dominic went out with the car keys. Linda watched his back and then looked at Jane. She asked in a low voice, “Sister, do you really trust him like that?”
“Hmm?” Jane didn’t understand. She was busy making another iced latte for Linda.
“His friends were all cellmates, people who have been to jail!”
Jane’s smile faltered, but the gentle warmth in her eyes remained unchanged.
She looked at Linda gently and whispered, “Before he met me, he had taken the wrong path, but since he’s been with me, he hasn’t strayed again.”
“The most important thing between husband and wife is trust. I understand Mr. Dan Murphy, my one and only husband and I trust him one hundred percent. He won’t make the same mistakes again.”
“But look sis.” Linda was moved, “What if he really deceives you one day?”
“How could that happen! He promised me he’ll never hide anything from me.”
“But…”
The words were on the tip of her tongue, but Linda couldn’t say them. She just swallowed her spit, hard enough to stop herself from spilling everything out.
In this matter, no one else could intervene except for her brother, who could explain it to her personally.
“Alright,” Jane smiled and playfully pinched her nose, “Why are you acting so strange today? Is it because you didn’t get any cookies?”
Linda reluctantly forced a smile and took out some cookies with her.
The wind chime at the door rang as customers started coming in.
Jane began another busy day. Like any other day, sunlight filled the small courtyard, and the aroma of coffee wafted through the house. Customers chatted and took pictures, leaving positive reviews as they left.
Although it was almost autumn, the irises were still blooming beautifully.
Jane’s heart swelled with a sense of happiness, and Linda looked at her contented smile, hoping that she would always be this happy.
Dominic drove along the riverside, driving very slowly and carefully, with very few bumps along the
way.
The passenger seat was reserved for Jane, and no one else was allowed to sit there.
So the two people in the backseat had bored and dejected expressions, staring at the back of the person in front of them, sighing lightly from time to time.
He treated a car worth less than ten thousand dollars like a precious gem.
But those previous luxury sports cars worth tens of millions? He revved their engines loudly, not caring at all if they broke down, and treated them like scrap metal.
Truly, people in the same car lived entirely different lives….

“Brother.” Hector yawned, “If you keep driving at this speed, I’m going to fall asleep!”
In the rearview mirror, Dominic’s face darkened, and he slowly pulled the car over to the side of the
road.
“If you want to sleep, then go ahead, but be careful not to drool on the car!”
Hector immediately straightened up and became more alert.
“Then, Brother,” Tristan forced a smile, “Can I have some water?”
Dominic narrowed his eyes, “What if you spill it?”
Tristan didn’t say anything, even if he was thirsty, he held back.
“Brother, I have something to tell you.” Hector decided to get straight to the point and not suffer here any longer. “Kevin is planning to send Mr. Murphy to England.”
“Yeah, he’s right.” Tristan nodded, “They’re in the process of handling the paperwork, and they’ve trained Mr. Dan Murphy to be presentable.”
“Quite fast,” Dominic sneered, “They’re preparing to have him go to England and ask for money my place!”
in
“Indeed.”
“It’s alright. I’ve also contacted my mom.” he said coldly, “I told her that there would be a fake son. asking for money soon, so she should be prepared.”
“Aunt?” Hector was a little worried, “Can she handle it on her own? I heard that Edward Campbell has been getting close to your uncle recently, and they might have colluded already!”
“Don’t worry,” Dominic looked back at them, “My mom named me; she only recognizes one word in her life, and that’s ‘Dom‘!”
The two exchanged glances and burst into light laughter.
Dominic’s mother, being the Grand Princess of the family, was used to being dominant and was even more capable when dealing with powerful opponents.
Dominic inherited this excellent trait from her. NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.
“So, when Mr. Murphy arrives in England, he’ll have only one path left.” Hector grinned, “Being captured by Aunt!”
Attorney Brown nodded, “Capturing him will solve a considerable part of the problem!”
“Oh, by the way, bro,” Hector continued, “Yvonne and Linda have been staying at the Emperor Hotel, where my uncle is taking care of them, so everything is okay!”
“Thank you; you guys have gone through a lot.”
“We’re brothers; no need to mention it,” Hector grinned, then his expression became serious, “But…. Brother, is Sister Linda in love? There has been a man around her all the time…”
Dominic’s eyes froze.
Hector pulled out some surveillance footage from his phone, This person; I remember his name is Eric Koller, and he’s a long–term worker at your house.”
“Yes, there is such a person.” Dominic’s brow furrowed, “What’s wrong with him?”
“He’s not doing anything else, and he doesn’t dare to bother Linda all the time.” Hector scratched his head, “I just feel that he’s strange. I ran into him a couple of days ago, and he didn’t say a single word. If Linda hadn’t introduced him, I would have thought he was mute!”
