Chapter 159 Vanessa

Today might be the launch of my hair care line but it feels like it's Dominic's as he keeps checking everything over again and again just to ensure that it all goes according to plan.

I've barely done anything as he believes that it will only stress me out. He would rather I focus on my father and spend time with him as much as I can. It still breaks my heart that he can't make it, but it still brings me joy hearing him say that I should go for it and he'll be watching.

When I come back home, it's to the sight of Dominic holding a book turned to a specific page as he reads through it with one of the organizers standing beside him.

It's only after I get closer that Dominic looks up and approaches me, handing over the book to the organizer.

"I didn't think you'd be back so soon," he says to me.

"My dad needed to rest. I also wanted to check how things were going here." I smile at the organizer as she makes her way to the door.

"Hey, I have everything under control," he assures me with a smile.

"I know, but I'm still curious."

"Come on. You know that I'll take care of everything."

I firmly nod with a smile. "I know that as well, but can I just feel a little involved? I feel so left out."

"Well, there's nothing more to do. I just finished going through the list of the people to receive the first products on the market while you'll stand behind that table. Are you sure you still want to do this?"

"Of course I do."
