After a few beeps, a languid yet clear female voice echoed from the receiver, "Domenic? Can pigs fly today? You actually called me.
" "Aunt Rachel, I do call you every year, remember?" Domenic said lightly.
"You call every New Year, wisha happy new year, and then hang up quickly.
It's like saying one more word is too much for you.
" Rachel Walsh often teased Domenic, who usually responded with silence.
But this time, he quickly replied, "I've been tied up with business.
Please don't be upset with me.
" On the other end, Rachel was slightly taken aback.
Then, with a hint of curiosity, she asked, "Do you need my help with something? Just tell me.

During his tliving away with his parents, Rachel often visited, bringing him toys and treats.

I'm just curious.

Not only that, she's being whitewashed by the media, and even the Perry family seems to respect her.
Outside of higher-up in the Walsh Group, only Uncle Brady could pull that off.

Therefore, she felt confident that Brady wasn't involved in the matter.
"Domenic, your uncle's been swamped with work lately.
He hasn't had tfor the entertainment industry.
It definitely wasn't him.
" "I'm glad to hear that.
You're my aunt, after all.
If he ever treats you poorly, you can count on my support.
