Moonlit Betrayal (Alpha Rick)

Chapter 122



Chapter 122~ 

Lola and Dominick brushed past each other. He gritted his teeth and firmly grasped Lola’s wrist. 

Lola was unprepared and was easily pulled in front of Dominick 

“Mr. Sinclair, what are you doing?” Lola frowned with anger in her eyes. 

“I can explain to you the benefits of this cooperation.” 

Dominick rarely had such patience. He gave all his patience and tenderness to Lola. 

But at this moment, Lola resisted talking to Dominick. She tried hard to break free, but couldn’t, for he was too strong. 

“Mr. Sinclair, please be polite. What are you doing?” 

Lola said, displeased, and Dominick was a little helpless. 

“Lola, listen to me. There is absolutely no problem with the contract, and we…” 

“Mr. Sinclair, Lola interrupted Dominick mercilessly. “You don’t need to explain to me. Although I am a novice and don’t understand the contract thoroughly, Ethan will explain it to me

“In business, trust is one of the most important things. Since you said the words in the recording. I think we don’t need to cooperate anymore

“You said you had no choice but to do this. Then, I assume that your current sincerity is also a disguise.” 

Dominick was stunned. Lola’s alienation and indifference squeezed his heart. 

“Lola, I have no malice towards you.” Dominick avoided that tople again. 

“Mr. Sinclair, please call me Ms. Lewis. Calling me Lola is too intimate for our relationship, isn’t it?” 

Lola was very disappointed. Even when Ethan refused to believe in Dominick, she still wanted to give him a chance

But what she got in return was disappointment. 

When they first met, Dominick called her by her name, and Lol didn’t resist like this. 

However, Lola’s attitude changed, and she wanted to keep her distance from him now, which made Dominick feel annoyed. 

“What do you want me to do?” 

Dominick was a little helpless. “Lola, what do you want me to do? I said, I won’t do anything to harm you, please trust me.” 

Lola felt a strange pain in her heart, which made her very scared 

She had only met Dominick a few times, but his words just now caused her heartache. 

Lola bit her lip and reminded herself of her fiancé. 

“Mr. Sinclair, you don’t have to do anything. As long as we don’t harm each other, we live our own lives.” 

Lola took a step back and pulled her hand out. “You have saved me before, so I won’t say anything to hurt you. I think it’s fine because we didn’t have any relationship to begin with. But Ethan might be upset.” 

Dominick frowned and made a decision. 

*I know you’re angry and refuse to cooperate with me, but have you thought about the consequences of missing this cooperation? 

Lola paused. 

I made it clear. This cooperation is only beneficial to your company, and there is no harm. You can give up the cooperation, but your company can’t wait.” 

Dominick took out a folder that had been prepared long ago and placed it on the table. “The Lewis Group’s recent projects have mostly been halted, and a few that are still running have entered a period of exhaustion. The economic situation is not good. How long do you think it can hold on?” 

Lola turned to look at Dominick. “What do you mean?” 

“I mean literally. I’m helping you. If you don’t accept my help, your company may collapse soon after you take over.” 

Dominick leaned back in his chair and looked at her calmly but confidently. “If you don’t believe it, ask Ethan. When you figure it out, you can come find me. 

“Lola, if I were you, I wouldn’t give up this cooperation just because I dislike my business partner. For the sake of the company, I would accept the cooperation no matter what.” 

Lola gritted her teeth. “Mr. Sinclair, you seem different from when I first met you 

“You are going too far. I know you have the ability to control everything, but I don’t need your charity. 

have nothing more to say, goodbye.” 

Lola was very angry and turned around without saying anything more. 

Lola sent a message to Ethan, saying that she was going back first. 

She felt frustrated. It was not like she should give a damn about Dominick, she could simply ignore him no matter what he did, yet she couldn’t help feeling down. 

Just as Lola left, Ethan appeared in Dominick’s office. 

“Did you guys have a fight?” 

Dominick put down his hand that was supporting his forehead and said tiredly, “As you can see 

“You have to endure it for now and play the role. We can’t let Layla know everything yet. There are too many uncertainties 

in the future. 

“We can’t be sure whether Layla will expose our intentions. Even if she doesn’t, how should we explain to her why Jenna is against us

“If Layla exposes our intentions, Jenna will vent her anger by revealing what happened in the past. That will be worse.” 

Dominick understood everything and sighed helplessly, “Lola is too stubborn. I clearly told her that the benefits to the Lewis Group, but she doesn’t seem to believe what I said.” 

Ethan patted Dominick’s shoulder sympathetically. “You’ve been through a lot, bro. 

“Layla is just like that. Although she looks fragile, she is actually strong–willed. She should be very disappointed in you now?” 

Dominick pushed away Ethan’s hand. “Stop talking nonsense. I need your help with this matter. Lola has just taken over the Lewis Group, and we can’t handle any more problems at this time, so cooperation is necessary.” 

“Got it, leave it to me, Ethan said confidently. 

Lola returned to the Lewis Group and saw Scott anxiously waiting downstairs. 

“Scott, why are you here?” 

Scott saw Lola and hurriedly approached her. 

“Layla, I’ve been busy lately. Why didn’t you tell me you would work here?” 

Lola was not in a good mood and casually replied, “Sorry, Scott, just took over the Lewis Group and have been busy. I forgot to tell you. 

“Why didn’t you wait outside instead of getting in?” Lola looked at the sweat on his forehead.. 

“I…I wanted to see you as soon as possible.”
