Ethan paused when he heard this.
He thought, “What? Dominick refused? He always seized the opportunity to interact with Lola. Why did he refuse today? It’s really weird.
“Are you sure you don’t want to have dinner with us? Dominick, are you scared? Do you want to go back and take a rest?” Ethan looked at Dominick with disdain.
Lola had been looking at Dominick just now. He looked pale as if he was trying to hold on.
“Mr. Sinclair, are you feeling unwell? You look pale. I think you need to go to the hospital for a checkup.”
Upon hearing this, Ethan was startled, and he looked at Dominick again.
“Layla, I have asked the bodyguard to come. Bruce will be here soon. You can go back with him first. Dominick and I will find out the person
behind the scenes.”
Lola was worried about Dominick, but with her identity, it seemed to be inappropriate to care for him too much.
“Okay, I see.”
Bruce arrived in a few minutes. Looking at the situation, he immediately understood what had happened.
an was taken a
away.
He asked several young and strong bodyguards to take away these bodies, and the only alive hatchet man
As soon as Lola left, Ethan couldn’t wait to ask Dominick,
“How are you? Ar
Are you injured?”
Dominick narrowed his eyes slightly, and his forbearance disappeared instantly. He seemed to let out a sigh of relief and sat down slowly.
“Have you got a cigarette?”
Seeing his appearance, Ethan became even more worried, but Dominick didn’t say anything else.
“Are you craving a smoke? In order not to damage your image in front of Layla, you put her away, right?” Ethan said so, but he still took a packet of cigarettes from his pocket and threw it at Dominick
“Take it.”
Dominick did not answer Ethan but took out a cigarette and lit it.
He took a drag on a cigarette, and after a while, he slowly blew out a stream of smoke.
Ethan felt that something was wrong with Dominick, but
ut he couldn’t tell it.
He circled Dominick worriedly, and when he saw his back, his face turned pale.
“Holy crap! Are you crazy?”
A gentleman like Ethan rarely said theatrically.
Dominick said nothing and continued to smoke.
ury in your back? Why didn’t you tell me earlier that you were injured? Stop smoking! Go to the hospital quickly.” Ethan
“Do you know the injury in

was anxious
No wonder he smelled a blood smell just now. He thought it was coming from those killers, so he didn’t overthink it.
Dominick was crazy. The cloth on his back was soaked with blood. It could be seen how severe the injury was.
However, he could actually see Lola off with a calm face. He was really a tough guy.
Compared to Ethan, Dominick was relatively calm. He held the cigarette butt between his fingers and spoke in a light voice as if he would fall at any time.
“I’m fine, I’ll go to the hospital after smoking this cigarette.”
Ethan couldn’t figure out what Dominick was thinking.
It seemed that Dominick had guessed that Ethan would ask, and he smiled despite the pain. “This is the tightest hug Lola has ever given me.”
Ethan wanted to ask Dominick any more questions, but when he heard these words, he was speechless.
He knew that Dominick could really do anything for Lola.
Ethan could only swallow his words and sigh, “So you let Layla go because you are afraid that she would know you are injured, right?
“You got injured for Layla but didn’t let her know. If Layla knew that you were injured, she would definitely care for you, and then you could make a good impression on her. Why don’t you do so?”
Ethan looked at Dominick, waiting for his answer.
Dominick looked at a certain place as if he was thinking of something absentmindedly.
“She praised me for being awesome, so how could I get injured?” Dominick said meaningfully.
He
didn’t want Lola to worry about him anymore.
Ethan was speechless. if Dominick weren’t injured, he would punch him to wake him up.
“You are considerate of her, but have you ever thought about what will happen if you die?
“Look at you. I really don’t know whether I should call you stupid or thank you for hiding it from Layla to save her from guilt.”
Dominick threw away the cigarette butt, saying, “When I hugged her just now, I thought it would be good if I could hold her in my arms all the time, but I smelled the blood on my body and pushed her away.
“She can’t be hurt or frightened again. I’ll endure the rest myself.”
With his heart tightening, Ethan had a meaningful look in his eyes, but he didn’t say anymore.
“Go to the hospital.”
There was a long wound on Dominick’s back, and the doctor gasped when he was dressing the wound.
The doctor could not help but think, ‘With such a severe wound on his back, why did the man come to the hospital so late? Besides, there is a scar on him. He looks like a wealthy man. How could he be covered in scars?‘
Dominick lost too much blood and finally fainted.

When the doctor pushed him out, Ethan saw that Dominick was unconscious, and the doctor looked solemn. For a moment, he thought something serious had happened.
“Is he dead? Is he dead?” Ethan was extremely nervous. He didn’t know when he had regarded Dominick as his friend.
He grabbed Dominick’s arm and shook it hard.
“Mr. Lewis… The patient is not dead yet…” the doctor said helplessly.
Upon hearing this, Ethan quickly regained his regular expression and let go of Dominick’s arm.
“Oh, I thought he was dead.”
The doctor explained. “The patient lost a lot of bl
blood and needed to rest for a long time to recover. Moreover, I saw other scars on his back.
They may not be able to be removed.”
Ethan thought that Dominick had suffered a knife for Layla like this that day.
“I see. Send the patient to the best ward.”
Dominick had always been in excellent health, but this time, he was in a coma for three days and had not woken up yel
However, all his vital signs were normal, and the doctor didn’t understand why he hadn’t woken up yet. He could only guess that it was because Dominick didn’t want to wake up.
“You idiot, you are actually overindulging in the memory of holding her. Then why are you so selfless?”
Dominick didn’t know how long he had been in a coma. In a daze, he seemed to smell a very familiar fragrance.
It was what Lola liked, the scent of gardenia.
Dominick finally tried to open his eyelids slowly. The bright light caused him to close his eyes again. After a long time, he got used to the light and slowly opened his eyes.
“You’re awake!”
Dominick saw a delicate
