Chapter 300 Jumping to Conclusions

Dom paid no mind to what the others in the community thought. He was happy enough to have

accomplished what Jackson had asked of him. “You know, Dr. Genius, the leaders have missed you.

They go onto your live-streaming channel all the time and hardly dare to take

bathroom breaks.”

“I figured I’d go visit them before I leave,” Wynter said as she walked alongside Dom.

Dom gaped at her. “Leave? You’re leaving, Dr. Genius?”

What was he going to do if she left? He couldn’t handle the cadre on his own, and he knew better than

to give it a shot.

“I found my family, and they’re in Kingbourne,” Wynter explained with a smile. “Don’t worry, Mr. Fisher.

I’ll tell the others.”

Dom was still dazed as he muttered, “Mr. Munn Senior will be leaving for Kingbourne in the next few

days, and now you’re leaving for Kingbourne.” He sighed.

Wynter was surprised that Jackson was leaving for Kingbourne. She didn’t think he would be

transferred anywhere at his age. Perhaps she

had underestimated him.

She didn’t press for details, given that it was Jackson’s private affairs. She followed Dom to the seating

area right in front of the stage.

The ceremony was about to start. Reporters from various media channels, along with the Lopezes and

the Shepherds, had shown up.

Abel was too far away to spot Wynter. As for the Shepherds, they sat at the very front of the audience,

looking as regal and arrogant as

ever.

Wynter couldn’t help lifting a brow at the seating plan. She asked

Dom, “Mr. Fisher, why are the Shepherds seated up front? Are they receiving awards too?”

“No, I don’t think so.” Dom had no opinions on the Shepherds. “But I heard they were the ones who

supplied the DNA database that allowed parents to find their children.”

Wynter toyed with her purple sugilite pendant. “They supplied the

database?”

“Yes,” Dom replied without thinking much of it.

Wynter went quiet as she processed this information.

The audience clapped and cheered as the victims of the kidnapping

took their seats.

The Shepherds appeared to be the center of attention as the victims and their families thanked them

profusely for their contribution.

Charlie, who had always loved being put on a pedestal, smiled graciously as he said, “No thanks

necessary. We were only doing our job as doctors.”

The parents of the victims were beyond grateful as they took turns shaking Charlie’s hand.

Charlie gave a speech on behalf of the Shepherds, who were already the center of attention before

taking the stage.

However, he stopped short when he got to the front, and his gaze fell on Wynter. He asked in a cl*pped

tone, “What are you doing here?”

Why did she have to show up wherever he was? He had called off their engagement ages ago, and he

couldn’t understand why she wouldn’t leave him alone.

Charlie thought Wynter had meant it when she behaved indifferently

toward him at the manor.

However, the fact that she was here could only mean she was playing

hard to get.

“Wynter, you and I are over,” Charlie said as he gazed down at her imperiously. “You shouldn’t be here

at this ceremony. Leave before you force me to make a scene.”

Hearing this, Dom clenched his fists and made to stand up.

With one hand on Dom’s shoulder, Wynter kept the man in his seat. She shot Charlie an icy look. “I’m

starting to think if that brain of yours has atrophied, Charlie. Why do you always jump to the most

ridiculous conclusions?”

“Excuse me?” Charlie was furious, but he had to keep his voice down on account of the surrounding

media crew. “If you want to do this the

hard way, Wynter, then so be it!”

With that, he turned around and demanded, “Get security to kick her

out of here! She’ll do nothing but cause trouble at an event like this.”

“Kick who out?”

Just then, a group of cadres showed up, all of them in suits. The

person who had spoken was none other than Lucas, the man who

was going to restructure Southdale with an iron fist.
