I’m Someone Else

Chapter 130

Molly looked up at the thought of it and took a profound gander at Thomas, only to become conflicted once more.

But what if I’m wrong? What if Miss Pearson and Thomas’ relationship isn’t as complicated as I think? I can’t just give up because of my wild imagination, can I? No! I absolutely can’t give up. I will probably regret it for the rest of my life if I miss a man as wonderful as Thomas!

“Thomas, you go ahead and have your coffee. I’ll make a call to Miss Pearson.”

Thomas nodded. “Go ahead.”

Olivia will agree for sure. After all, Molly’s her secretary. It wouldn’t make sense for her to go through the trouble of rehiring instead of using Molly.

Sure enough, Molly returned five minutes later with glee and sat across from Thomas, shaking her phone excitedly. “Thomas, Thomas, Miss Pearson said I can go with her to Keyshire Property in the afternoon! Haha, I’m still the CEO’s secretary! And I’ll even become the secretary of the largest real estate company in Irieson!”

Keyshire Property was a huge company, even dominating the entire Irieson real estate industry. In a sense, Pearson Group couldn’t even compare to Keyshire Property.

Real estate was a lucrative industry, and everyone knew that.

Thomas wasn’t surprised by the outcome at all. He took a sip of coffee and smiled at Molly.

Just then, his phone rang, and he picked it up to see that it was his good friend Sean calling.

“Hey, Sean. What’s up?”

“T-Thomas… There’s something I have to tell you…”

“What’s with the stutter?” Thomas smiled. “Just spit it out.”

“A-Alright… But you better prepare yourself…”

Thomas frowned in response. It seemed that whatever his friend wanted to say wouldn’t be good news, or why would Sean tell him to be mentally prepared?

“I just got word that Westhill Cemetery caught on fire.”

Thomas was stumped. He wasn’t sure why his friend would deliberately tell him about a graveyard being on fire.

“So?”

“So, um… The grave on fire was Dominic’s.”

“What?!” Thomas’ countenance turned sub-zero at once, and his piercing eyes emitted boundless malice. “Say it again.”

“Um…” Sean felt his heart skip a beat. He had anticipated that Thomas would be angry, but he hadn’t expected his reaction to be so intense. It seemed that Thomas was really furious about this.

He took a deep breath, adjusted his emotions, and said, “Someone set fire to Dominic’s grave. It’s been burned, and… and…”

“And what? Spit it out!” As Thomas was furious, he didn’t care much for politeness at the moment.

“And his grave has been dug up. We’re at Westhill Cemetery right now. Zoe’s here too. She’s been crying her eyes out.”

“Stay right where you guys are. I’m coming right away!”

Thomas had never paid Dominic tribute at the cemetery, for he knew his friend’s head was still in the hands of Tigre Shawn. He had planned to wait until he wiped out the Minacia Oito Irieson and retrieved Dominic’s head before mourning him. But who’d have thought that Dominic’s grave would be destroyed?!

After ending the call, Thomas turned to Molly. “I have to go.”

With those words, he dashed out of the cafe.

“Thomas!”

By the time Molly came around, Thomas was long gone.

She patted her chest, feeling quite frightened by the situation just now. This was the first time she had seen Thomas so angry. In fact, at that moment, Thomas no longer felt like a person to her but like a wild beast with a penchant for killing!

What exactly happened? What could have made Thomas react like this?

Meanwhile, rancor surged within Sean and William as they stood side by side in front of Dominic’s tombstone in Westhill Cemetery, looking at the chaotic scene before them. Zoe, on the other hand, cried uncontrollably while kneeling in front of the grave.

If it hadn’t been for the cemetery staff informing her, she wouldn’t have even known that her brother’s grave had been desecrated. It wasn’t the day for visiting the grave, and no one usually came to this place.

It was Zoe who called Sean, and that was how they both learned the news.

The cemetery staff was actively investigating, and the signs of deliberate destruction were obvious. However, despite their efforts, they couldn’t find out who was responsible.

Sean and William exchanged a glance, and they could see the anger in each other’s eyes.

The ancient sayings passed down over centuries said to respect the dead and find peace in the burial ground, so that begged the question of which despicable ingrate dug out Dominic’s grave. And what was even more outrageous was that they didn’t seem satisfied with just digging it up—they set it on fire! It was an understatement to call them heartless animals!

Now, Zoe was crying uncontrollably, and they didn’t know how to comfort her. What happened had happened; nothing they said would make a difference.

“Um… Zoe, please stop crying. Don’t worry. I’ve already called Thomas, and when he arrives, he will avenge Dominic!”

Alas, the young woman wasn’t in the right state of mind to listen to anybody, let alone Sean, only shaking her head while continuing to sob.

Oh, Dominic, my poor brother, you died such a tragic death, and even in death, you’re subjected to such injustice. I’m so sorry for my incompetence! I failed to protect your grave! Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

Dominic’s head was already in the hands of that monster in the first place, and now, to make matters worse, even the remains in the grave were gone! She had reached the pinnacle of grief and fury. Who have we ever provoked?! Have we done something so outrageous and immoral? Why must these unfortunate events befall us? Why?

Not long after, Thomas arrived. He parked his car outside the cemetery and ran all the way. When he saw the devastated grave, he lurched. Who? Who the hell did this?

“Thomas!”

William and Sean quickly supported Thomas when they saw him staggering, one on each side.

Thomas waved his hand, indicating that he was fine, but tears were already streaming down his face. He looked around. All the other graves were intact, unscathed even. It was only Dominic’s grave that was set on fire and dug up. It was evidently a deliberate act of revenge.

Thomas walked up to Zoe and reached out to embrace her shoulders.

Zoe naturally fell into Thomas’ arms, crying uncontrollably.

She had no idea who could have done this. The only people she had enmity with were the Minacia Oito Irieson, but they hadn’t been seen for a long time.
