Chapter 963
Their uploads on Solflare Vibe were already generating a decent stream of income. Of course, it couldn’t compare to a professional powerhouse like Solflare
Entertainment.
By the time Mira returned home, no one had eaten dinner yet. “I told you guys not to wait for me, just save me a plate p>
Grandma Eleanor handed her a glass of warm water, smiling. “Waiting a little bit is fine. Eating together is much livelier. If my precious granddaughter isn’t home, my heart just feels empty p>
Mira took the glass, downed it in one gulp, and pulled the older woman into a tight hug. “But if you go hungry waiting for me, I’ll feel terribly guilty p>
“Silly girl, I’m at home all day, how could I possibly go hungry? Rachel feeds me eight times a day p>
Eleanor’s eyes brimmed with affection.
“Eight meals is perfect. If we get you nice and plump, I’ll look good too p>
“Fine, fine, I’ll eat a little more at every meal, happy now p>
Eleanor gave Mira a playful glare.
She was getting older; staying lean was actually healthier, but she could never win against Mira.
After sharing a few laughs with her grandmother, Mira headed upstairs to change and wash up. As she turned the corner, she caught sight of a guest sitting on the sofa.
“Well, if it isn’t Dominic West. What a rare treat p>
She turned back to Rachel. “Did we prep a few extra dishes today p>
“Don’t worry, it’s all sorted p>
Rachel said with a warm smile.
“Good p>
“See? Mira still cares about me p>
Dominic said to Owen Lance.
Owen shot him a dry look. “She’s treating you like a guest. I’m family p>
“Nonsense. Mira is obviously closer to me. I’m her mentor, which technically makes me your elder p>
“What elder? We’re practically brothers. Are you trying to mess up the family tree p>
A Federal Commissioner and a top-tier business mogul bickering like little kids.
Mira rolled her eyes and marched straight upstairs.
At the dinner table, Dominic sighed contentedly. “It’s been way too long since I’ve had Rachel’s cooking p>
Rachel beamed. “You’re welcome to come over whenever you’re craving a meal. It’s not like you live far p>
The atmosphere in the house felt incredibly warm and harmonious. This was exactly the kind of warmth Dominic yearned for.
Mira had heard from Owen in the
past that Dominic was actually an orphan; his parents had fallen in the line of duty. He had attended a
police academy for univers not
following in his parents’ footsteps to become an officer after graduation. Cóntent
Thanks to his exceptional skills and countless merits, he had received multiple exceptional promotions, quickly rising to the ranks of high-level officials.
Ever since Mira chose Owen, Dominic rarely visited their home.
He hadn’t succeeded in courting Mira, so he was intentionally keeping his distance out of respect, but the main reason was simply that his job Rept him relentlessly busy.
After dinner, the three of them moved to the study. Owen asked, “When are we making a move on the Balkan Underworld p>
The number of unexplained disappearances across the country had been spiking, and nine times out of ten, they were tied to the Balkans.
“Preparations are almost complete. The operation is launching soon p>
Dominic replied. “I came by today to give you a heads-up to get ready p>
“Have you negotiated with the local authorities in Oenotria p>
Owen asked.
Dominic nodded.
“We only told them we’re sending personnel over to rescue victims from our federation p>
Dominic explained.
They absolutely couldn’t disclose
never
their true objective. The local syndicates were deeply entrenched, and the local regime would never, allow foreign forces to intervene on that scale.
