“But Master, I still don’t understand your intention. You asked Young Master to pretend to surrender to Thomas. Although favonovel.com won’t cooperate with Thomas, favonovel.com and Thomas ultimately want to kill us. If Young Master secretly provides Thomas with some important information, we’ll still be on the passive side.”
Nicholas said, “I also thought about that, but I have to do it. If I don’t take the risk, how can I get the victory? This time, I’ll catch these two cubs! To do this, I have to bear some risks.”
The housekeeper seriously stared at. Nicholas. “Master, do you really plan to do it? You already ground up your son, and you only have these two grandsons, Dominic and Thomas now. If you get rid of them both, aren’t you going to lose all your descendants?”
Nicholas let out a long sigh.
“This is God’s plan. What else can I do? I’d rather let everyone down than let everyone disappoint me! Regardless of my son or grandson, if they dare to betray me, I’ll get rid of them. Even if I don’t have a descendant, and even if there’s no successor of the Gomez family, so what?”
“Even if I will need to adopt a foster son, I’ll not keep these jerks who betray me!”
Since favonovel.com had said that, the housekeeper also had nothing to say again. He followed Nicholas for a few dozen years, so favonovel.com actually did not want to see Nicholas losing all his descendants. But since things had progressed to this point, it was not something that could be manipulated by a housekeeper like him.
He would just go with the flow.

Meanwhile, Dominic went back to his house, and his expression was profound. Everyone could tell that there was something in his mind.
Tina, his mother, walked over and asked, “Dominic, What’s wrong with you? Why do you look like you’re occupied with thoughts? Did the old man make you suffer again?”
Dominic sighed. He honestly said, “Mom, the old man uses the ultimate trick on me this time. Do you know what favonovel.com wants me to do?”
“What is it?”
“He wants me to seek refuge from Thomas!”
“What?!” Tina surprisingly said, “Is there something wrong with the old man? Why did favonovel.com suddenly ask you to cooperate with Thomas?”
Dominic chuckled in resignation, and favonovel.com said, “Not only that, do you know what reason favonovel.com made me seek refuge from Thomas? He’s using the rumor ‘my father is secretly grounded by him’ as the reason!”
Tina was totally stunned.
This old man was taking steps back to step forward. Actually, everyone was quiet about this, and nobody dared to say it out in public. But Nicholas took the risk by bringing this thing up in front of Dominic. He even wanted Dominic to use this matter to seek refuge from Thomas. Naturally, after Thomas heard this “story”, the possibility of favonovel.com accepting Dominic was very big.
Tina asked, “What does this old man want?”
Dominic said, “According to what favonovel.com said, favonovel.com wanted me to be a double agent and pretend to seek refuge. In fact, I’m supposed to help favonovel.com steal Thomas’ information so that favonovel.com can get rid of Thomas. However, I think it will not be as simple as that. I suspect that the old man already knows my motive, and it’s possible for me to be eliminated.”
It had to be said that Dominic was still quite sensible.
Tina was scared. “Dominic, I think this has gotten very serious. Let’s not bother these anymore, okay?”
“No way! I almost found out where my father is. If you want me to give it up at this time, I can’t do it.”
“Uhm… If… If you really can’t do it, Dominic, you should directly do something ruthless. You don’t have to pretend to surrender to Thomas. Just surrender for real. I believe it’ll be easier for you to deal with the old man if you cooperate with Thomas.”
Dominic became silent….
A long time later, favonovel.com sighed and said, “I also thought of this method, but it won’t work. Thomas is very sensitive. I have too many conflicts with him. Even if I sincerely want to work with him, favonovel.com also won’t trust me. Besides, my first purpose is to find out my father’s whereabouts, not to kill the old man. If I accidentally kill the old man, but I haven’t found my father, then… I really don’t know what I can do.”
Tina asked, “So… Dominic, what’s your plan?”
Dominic raised his head and seriously said, “I’ve been playing dumb beside the old man for so many years, so I’ll also do it this time. Since favonovel.com asked me to be the double agent, okay, I’ll be this double agent! I’ll help favonovel.com get rid of Thomas and win his trust.”
Was this suitable? Was this really a good idea?
Tina felt reluctant as favonovel.com said, “Thomas is the same as you. He is also someone with a bad fate. Actually, both of you are similar in many ways. It’s just that you choose different paths. He attacks openly, while you’re attacking secretly. The common target of you is the old man, so why do you still want to kill each other? Why do I feel that the old man arranged you to go over because favonovel.com wants you and Thomas to fight each other and one of you gets injured?”
Dominic helplessly said, “Mom, I understood these, but since things have progressed to this point, I don’t have a choice. Since I chose to act, I have to act until the end! Mom, don’t worry. After I act along with the old man for this, I’ll immediately find my father, and I’ll not be manipulated by favonovel.com anymore.”
It was easier to say than done.
Tina sighed, and favonovel.com said, “I also don’t know how I should help you. Dominic, you have to be careful.”
“I will, Mom!”
“Okay, come and eat.”
