Destined by One Night: The CEO's Pursuit

Chapter 140

Ch. 140 / 281 Apr 07, 2026

Dominic's master was already investigating and he would receive news in the next few days.

Dominic was curious about the reason Malcolm investigated his mother.

Malcolm looked at Dominic with a dumbfounded expression.

A bad man?

Malcolm asked, "Dominic, are you kidding?"

Dominic smiled and said, "Mr. Lowe, of course, I'm not!"

Malcolm felt a little frustrated.

Malcolm felt that it was difficult for him to win his son's favor.

Malcolm felt that he must definitely satisfy his son and wife. He wanted to be a good husband and a good father.

Arturo said with a smile, "Dominic, if Malcolm did something to Mom, would Mom still be fine? You are too protective of Mom. You are afraid that Mom will suffer. Don't worry, Malcolm is a good person."

Dominic suddenly turned around and looked at Arturo with a cold gaze.

Arturo calmly met Dominic's gaze. He was telling the truth and facing Dominic with no qualms.

Malcolm looked at Arturo gratefully and felt Arturo was more considerate than Dominic.

Malcolm retracted his gaze and looked at Dominic with a smile.

Dominic sneered and said in a low voice, "Mr. Lowe, if you dare to hurt my mother, I won't let you go.

"People who approach my mother usually only have two kinds of people. One is carrying a torch for my mother and the other is to plot against my mother. You'd better not be the second kind."

Malcolm was still smiling. His son was threatening him.

Malcolm had finally experienced it once.

However, even if he was threatened, he was still very happy.

Malcolm smiled confidently and said, "Dominic, I won't give you that kind of opportunity." Dominic was very similar to him in the past. Back then, he was also afraid that his mother would be injured and was full of hostility toward everyone.

Malcolm said, "Dominic, you should remove your blinkers. I am definitely not the second kind of person."

Dominic smiled and said, "Cut the crap. Stay away from my mother.

"Although you are handsome, you can't hide your evil intentions."

Malcolm was about to speak, but he suddenly saw Marilyn walk back. Marilyn said, "Dominic, Arturo, go take a shower. It's almost 10 o'clock. Go to bed after taking a shower."

"Okay, mom!" Dominic stood up, looked at Malcolm, and whispered, "Mr. Lowe, you can leave now."

Malcolm glared at Dominic. He thought, "Dominic, how dare you chase your father away! When I and your mother get married, I will teach you a lesson."

Malcolm also knew that Marilyn was going to work tomorrow, and he was too embarrassed to stay. Looking at this small apartment, he felt it was really too small.

Malcolm thought he should have arranged a bigger apartment for Marilyn, but it was too late now. Marilyn had bought a house and would move out soon.

Malcolm smiled at Marilyn and said, "Lynn, I'll be leaving first. I still have work tomorrow. See you at the company tomorrow."

"Alright! Take care, Mr. Lowe!" Marilyn smiled. Thinking of the ticket, Marilyn was even more grateful.

After Malcolm left, Marilyn and her sons prepared to take a shower and sleep.

As for Malcolm, he was very happy all the way home.

Even that night, he had a pleasant dream. In his dream, he lived with Marilyn.

Early the next morning, Marilyn woke up early and took Arturo to the company on foot. She asked Jeannie to wait for them at the Lowe Group.

All the offices of the Lowe Group were in this building.

Dominic had gotten up early in the morning and was sitting in front of his computer.

After his mother left, he felt a little uneasy.

Marilyn suffered a lot because her design was stolen in Goldmere.

His mother stayed up late to design it, but it was stolen, which made Dominic angrier.

Just as Marilyn and Arturo arrived at the company building, they saw Jeannie who was wearing a red tight dress. Her soft hair was dyed a beautiful brown-red color. Her long hair hung down her shoulders and was in the shape of a large wave. She looked very charming.

Jeannie stood there with her arms crossed over her chest. Her arrogant expression was not annoying. She had a good figure. Those people who entered and exited the company could not help but look at her.

When Jeannie saw Marilyn and Arturo, she smiled happily.

Arturo called out softly, "Jeannie!"

"Hello, Arturo." Jeannie looked at Arturo with a smile.

Marilyn smiled and asked, "Jeannie, have you been here for a long time?"

Jeannie complained as she looked at Marilyn, "You are so heartless! How dare you stand me up!" As a well-known agent, Jeannie was so cute in front of Marilyn.

Marilyn said, "I'm sorry. I was busy yesterday. You guys go to the eleventh floor to shoot first. I'll go to work first. Let's have lunch together."

When Jeannie heard this, she instantly smiled happily and said, "Got it. I'll take Arturo to work first. You can't stand me up this time."

"Jeannie, it won't happen. Let's go!" Marilyn smiled and went forward to lead the way. She felt very guilty in her heart. Because of work, she indeed often stood Jeannie up.

Marilyn sent the two of them to the eleventh floor and took the elevator to the twenty-fifth floor.

Arturo, who had been in front of the computer, suddenly heard his phone ringing. He quickly picked up the phone.

"Hey! Master!"

"Eta! I found the IP address you gave me. It's in the Guillvonne Group. The Gita Group will have a press conference today. The new product they are going to launch is the new product designed by your mother. I will help you inform the Lowe Group.

"Before the product launch event of the Guillvonne Group, your mother and the others should have received the news in advance and stopped everything in time. You don't have to worry."

When Dominic heard this, he instantly let out a sigh of relief. He said with a smile, "Thank you, Master. When you are back, I will treat you to a meal."

A happy laugh came from the other side of the line.

"Eta, you are the youngest of our seven hackers, and you are my disciple. There is no one more considerate than you." The happy and confident voice came from the other side.

Dominic also smiled and said, "Master, I told you back then that you would definitely not suffer a loss if you accepted me as your disciple."

"I have seen your ability. I will definitely come back to see you soon."

"Okay! Master!" Dominic smiled and hung up the phone. He was much more at ease.

Marilyn reached the twenty-fifth floor, but before she reached the office, she was stopped by Sergio.

"Ms. Chapman, come over here."

Hearing this, Marilyn frowned and quickly walked over.

"Sergio, what has happened?" Marilyn instantly felt uneasy. She was afraid that her guess would come true.
