Dominic cast a cold glance at the subordinate who had barged in unannounced. The man instantly froze in place, not daring
to make a sound.
“I think… I just heard someone call you ‘President‘?”
On the other end of the phone, Brynn spoke hesitantly.
She could barely make out what was said.
But that didn’t stop her from probing Dominic.
Dominic explained in a gentle tone, “It’s ‘present‘. Someone just told me that the present I sent you has been delivered”
“Oh… I see.”
“Unless you think I’m the President?” Dominic’s eyes darkened slightly, a trace of amusement flickering in them. “I wouldn’t mind, but unfortunately, I’m not. I still have to live off my horny.”
Hearing that, Brynn nearly choked on her sweet wine.
“Are you saying my wife thinks I’m too incompetent?” Dominic sighed lightly. “That’s my fault.”
“Of course not!” Brynn denied it immediately. “I was just asking casually.”
She really hadn’t expected this side of Dominic.
So playful…
A bit of a tease.
While Brynn was marveling at Dominic’s many facets, the subordinate standing silently in the room was completely dumbfounded.
The ever–serious President… could look this gentle?
If he told someone about this, no one would believe him!
Who was he talking to?
His girlfriend?
Since when did the President have a girlfriend?
Wasn’t he famously indifferent to women?
The subordinate had been stationed in Eaglemont the entire time and had never been to Portmare, so he had no idea that Dominic was already married.
He was utterly stunned by the rare sight of his boss’s tender expression.
“Okay, I won’t keep you,” Brynn said, steering the conversation elsewhere. “It’s getting colder lately–make sure to stay
warm.”
“Mm. You too.” Dominic paused briefly before adding, “Brynn, if anything happens, you have to tell me. Don’t carry everything on your own.”

Portmare….
What a coincidence.
Brynn’s face surfaced in his mind. According to the reports from Formare she had played a more in song fiz patient.
Could it be… that Brynn was the Divine Doctor?
It wasn’t that Dominic had an overly glorified perception of her. It was just a gut feeling–one he couldn’t que cuan

That meant the trail had gone cold

Dominic frowned slightly. “Fifty–something? Are you sure?”
The subordinate was momentarily stunned but then nodded firmly. Yes, that’s what he said.”
It made sense. A Divine Doctor had to be some old man, right?
How could a young person be so skilled in medicine?
“I see. Keep searching for the Divine Doctor
Dominic gave the order indifferently.
At the same time, he dismissed the notion that Brynn could be the doctor
Maybe he really was overthinking it.
