Chapter 137
While Alan was pondering, he quickly realized that this was his chance.
Dominic had no particular hobbies and didn’t like to be flattered, so Alan had been feeling nervous about the progress of this project the entire time.

However, since Dominic cared so much about his wife, Alan thought if he played along and did a favor, making her happy, the project would surely move forward smoothly.
Thinking of this, Alan quickly beckoned to his subordinate and whispered, “Talk to Mr. Brooks that the bill is on me, and let Mr. Johnson have it on the house.”
The man nodded and was about to find Dave Brooks when he saw that Dominic had already taken out his card.
“Wait!” Alan hadn’t even finished speaking when Dominic had already paid for the bill.
Alan sighed and thought, ‘Fine, no wonder people say he’s a tough one!
However, Alan was unwilling to let this opportunity slip away, so he rolled his eyes and immediately had another idea.
“Mr. Johnson, you have such a good taste. These bags are all the most popular styles, and they must suit your wife very well.” Alan laughed and said, “Wait, wouldn’t it be boring to only give her bags?”
Dominic slowly looked at Alan with curiosity flashing in his eyes.
Knowing that he had played the right card, Alan quickly continued, “Just like with clothing, a bag needs the right accessories to look good. Since you bought so many bags, would you like to check out the jewelry stores as well?”
Dominic thought it made sense. “Okay, let’s go and see.”
Alan’s face lit up with joy. As he prepared to lead Dominic to the jewelry stores, he winked at his subordinate.
However, as soon as they walked out of the store, Kevin walked up to Dominic and said in a low voice, “Mr. President, we have a situation.”
Dominic frowned slightly. “What’s wrong?”
Kevin glanced at Alan and lowered his voice. “We received news from home that someone is investigating Mrs. Brynn Johnson in secret.”
Alan couldn’t hear what Kevin was saying, so he couldn’t help feeling a little nervous. He thought, ‘Could it be related to Preston?
‘No, I must find a way to convince Mr. Johnson to buy more things for his wife to smooth things over!
“Who is it?” Dominic frowned, his tone turning cold.
Kevin shook his head slightly. “I haven’t found anything yet, but I suspect it’s their man.”
“It seems they’re making their move again.” Dominic looked like he had grown wary.
He said, “Upgrade all posts and personal information about Brynn to the highest protection level, and let me know immediately if there is any unusual activity.”
“Got it,” said Kevin.

Victoria waited for a long time and finally got a call from the detective after lunch.
“Well, did you find anything?” she asked expectantly.
Im sorry. I haven’t found any useful information yet.” The detective sighed on the phone.

He said, “The information on the person you’re looking for seems to have been deliberately hidden. I’ve asked professional hackers to look into it, but they haven’t found any leads.”
Victoria’s face darkened when she heard this. She thought, ‘Even a professional hacker couldn’t find it out, so it must have been Dominic who did it. Who else could have done such a thing besides him?‘
Victoria gritted her teeth. “If you can’t find anything about that woman, you can at least find some about her family, right?”
“I can’t find any relevant information,” said the detective.
The detective was also helpless. After all, the price Victoria offered was really high, and if he couldn’t find anything, he could only earn a part of it
He continued, “By the way, Mr. President seems to have attended a wedding held by the Johnson family in Portmare some time ago. Maybe they know something.”
