Chapter 45 Dan’s expression changed. Next to him, Henry Finn winked at him and pointed to a place not far away. Through the car window, he saw Jane standing in a daze in the middle of the street. The crowd was bustling around her. The landmark building behind her was the headquarters of the Campbell Group. Jane put her phone close to her car and waited quietly for Dan’s answer. He sighed in relief and said with a chuckle, “In the past… I committed a crime in Central City and had to stay there for a while.” Jane paused and immediately changed the topic. Henry had been watching him all the time. No one knew what she said on the other end of the phone, but Mr. Dominic smiled happily. He had never seen Mr. Dominic’s eyes so gentle before. It was not until he hung up the phone and saw Jane and her colleagues walk away that Henry asked in a low voice, “Mr. Dominic, do you want to clear the places you mentioned to Ms. Fallon in advance?” “No, let her play more freely.” Dan returned to his usual self. “Send more people to protect her these days. Make sure to hide in the dark and don’t let her see it.” “Yes, I understand.” “And…” He narrowed his eyes slightly. “Unless I show up, don’t let anyone of the Campbell family get close to her!”
The Campbell Estate was located on Mount Bright Radiance in the south of Central City. The estate was built along the mountain. It was grand and luxurious as if it were an independent kingdom. As the head of the Four Great Families, the Campbell family controlled almost half of the country’s economic lifeline. Dominic Campbell slowly walked down the stairs. The large living room, bustling with noise and excitement a moment ago, instantly became dead silent. He was dressed in a wide black suit, which perfectly set off his tall and robust figure, His angular face
was firm and determined, and his deep and cold eyes were full of alienation and defense against the whole world. His gaze indifferently swept across the fawning faces and nodded in acknowledgment. Without saying a word, he ordered his men to send them away. Since returning to Central City, there has been an endless stream of visitors daily. After the plane crash, it was rumored that Dominic Campbell had been burned to ashes. The internal strife in the Campbell family continued, and everyone coveted the position of heir. However, now that Dominic had escaped death, he had returned. Whether it was the Campbell family or the other families, those ready to take action wanted to find out what was happening. “Mr. Dominic.” Henry walked to his side and whispered, “Mr. Edward Campbell has sent people here. many times.” 12:23 Chapter 45 Dominic suddenly clenched his fists. After the news of his death reached the Campbell family in Central City, his second uncle, Edward, was the most excited. It was said that Edward went to church and prayed every day to thank the g ods for blessing him. He couldn’t wait to tell the world how much he loved his nephew. But the guiltier a person was, the more likely he would be to put on a show for others to see. Dominic knew Edward was doing all this for his grandfather’s sake. “Mr. Edward Campbell also arranged a welcoming dinner for you. It will be held tomorrow n night at Bright Brilliance Hotel. Henry chuckled. “Rumor has it that the Campbell family is using this banquet to select a wife for you. So many socialites from the Central City will be present tomorrow night and from other places.” “Oh, my uncle cares about my marriage.” Dominic sneered. “He’s been picking a girlfriend for me since I went to college, hasn’t he?” Over the This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
years, Edward had sent more than a dozen women into Dominic’s room. Each of them had been under his orders, but each had been seen through and mercilessly driven out of Central City. No one knew what kind of show Edward would put on at tomorrow night’s banquet. “Hector and Tristan are both back?” Dominic lazily fiddled with the flowers and plants on the windowsill. “They’re both back.” Henry nodded. “They will attend the dinner party tomorrow night.” “Good. Tell them to be careful, especially Hector. Keep an eye on him and drink less. Don’t allow him to talk nonsense when he’s drunk.” After giving the instructions, Dominic went ups upstairs. All of a sudden, he felt that the stairs were so long that he couldn’t reach the end, no matter how hard. he tried. Back in his room, he was a little tired. He lay on the bed with one hand on his forehead and began to miss the small rental house in Cardiff. There was also the fragrance of flowers on the balcony, which was planted by Jane herself. She liked to carry a small chair there to bask in the sun. The sun shone on her face, and her smile was as bright and dazzling as crystal. He got up and went into the cloakroom, took out a belt, and rubbed it on his hand for a long time. Jane bought this belt for him. At that time, she only had 500 dollars left on her bank card, but when he said he liked it, she still transferred the money without hesitation and said, “I want to buy a belt for my husband. It means that I want to tie my man tightly!” “If you want to buy something, buy a good one. It’s sturdy and durable. It can keep you tied up for the rest of your life!” A warm smile appeared on his face. His cloakroom had countless famous brands and belts, and he had never taken these luxury goods. seriously. However, he valued this belt much. Even if he scratched it gently, he would feel distressed. Dominic
took a deep breath and quickly changed into the T-shirt and jeans he had worn when he came from Cardiff. Finally, he felt that he looked normal in the mirror. This was Dan Murphy. 12:23 It was Dan, who only belonged to Jane.
