The Billionaire Who Stole My Heart novel Chapter 921

Ivy made her way up the stairs, her footsteps echoing softly in the quiet of the grand house.

Holden remained where he was, his expression unreadable, betraying nothing of his thoughts.

In the study, Dominic motioned for Isaac to take a seat. "Man, it's been years since we last caught up. How come you didn't give me a heads-up before swinging by Craneville?"

"Just needed a change of scenery," Isaac replied casually.

"How's everyone else doing?"

"Pretty good, actually. Derek's about to tie the knot, and Wesley Tueley's been hitched for a while now. His little girl's not so little anymore."

Despite the years apart, the bond between Isaac and Dominic hadn't faded in the slightest.

Dominic let out a wistful sigh. "After graduation, my family asked me to come back. I always meant to visit Imperial City again, but just never found the time."

Politics ran in Dominic's family for three generations. Following in their footsteps, he'd taken up the mantle, and his influence in Craneville was nothing short of impressive.

"So, when's your big day, Zac?" Dominic asked, nudging the topic towards matrimony.

At the mention, a soft warmth touched Isaac's eyes. "Well, I've actually…"

Knock, knock, knock.

Their conversation was abruptly interrupted by an urgent rap at the door, and in walked a woman dressed in an exquisite gown. "Dominic, I heard you had a visitor. What are you guys chatting about?"

Dominic hadn't expected Ivy to barge in like this. He stood up abruptly. "Ivy, what brings you here?"

At first glance, Ivy's eyes locked with Isaac's, and there was a brief, palpable pause.

How did he know Dominic?

Sensing her gaze, Isaac stood up. "Dominic, who might this be?"

"Zac, let me introduce you. This is none other than our local royal gem, Princess Ivy," Dominic said, a hint of pride in his voice.
