Chapter 105 Women Corrupted by Love
Bella forced a smile. “You should go. You’re probably busy since you get up so early.”
Dominic said nothing, closed the car window, and drove away.
After washing up, Bella was about to change her clothes when her eyes landed on the calendar beside her bed. It was Sunday.
Hei movements troze, and a thought flashed through her mind. Did Dominic come over so early because he was worried she wouldn’t have anything to wear to
weck
Though he usually went out on Sundays, he was never too busy–thus much she knew about his routine
Bella gave her face a few light slaps to clear her head of such ridiculous thoughts, but the sound woke Lia
Still half asleep, Lia grumbled. “Why are you slapping yourself so hard? Are you worried your skin, now that you’re 25 years old, won’t absorb the essence of your skincare products?Tal it easy!”
Bella smiled. “You’re only two months younger than me. You’re not much younger than I am. Stop bringing up age! I’m off to work. I’ll take the bus, so you can go back to sleep”
Liasat up, rubbing her eyes. “I’m done sleeping. It’s already this late. Who’s got time for more sleep? I’mahand–working woman. If I don’t hustle, I’ll starvel”
She asked curiously, noticing the paperbag on the bedside table, “Who brought you the underwear? Dominic? That guy actually does this kind of thing?”
Bella nodded but didn’t want to explain further. She hadn’t expected it herself.
Liarlucked her tongue. “Don’t tell me your heart slopped a beat because of this? It he really cared about you, he wouldn’t have brought Amber back to live with him. Who knows how often they’ve rolled around in bed since you’ve been gone this past month?
“reving up on someone you like is incredibly hand, but listen to me it’s better to rip the band–aid off quickly than suffer in the long run. Don’t let the tiny bits of attention he throws your way make you forget the wounds he has already caused.”
Bella sighed helplessly. “I got it, M. Lawson Now, can you get up?”
Lia shot her a side–eye. “You’re a woman corrupted by love. You’re beyond help.”
with that, she grabbed her phone and walked into the bathroom But moments later, there was a scream from inside.
Bellanishdin. “What happened?”
Lia, her mouth full of toothpaste foam, wailed, “That scumbag I’ve been working on this order for nearly two months, and he’s canceling it now. What’s going on? His assistant handled everything from the beginning, and that bastard never even bothered to see me once!”
Bella frowned. “Is this the order you mentioned that was supposed to last about
at three months? Why would they cancel it? Won’t they have to pay a cancellation fee?
Lia stomped her foot in frustration. “How should I know why? Yeah, there’s a penalty, but in this business, the cancellation fee is peanuts. It won’t even cover the cost of the materials already bought, let alone the labor from the past two months!
“No way, I’m going to confront him. I need to see who this person thinks he is!”
Seeing how fired up Lia was, Bella felt a bit uneasy. “Lis, don’t be so impulsive. What if there’s still room for negotiation? Talkit out calmly and politely, okay?

Lia patted her chest, taking deep breaths to calm herself. “Don’t worry. I’ll start nice. But if that guy is stubborn, I’ll ensure his grandmother wor him when I’m done with him!”
Bella still wasn’t convinced. “How about I go with you? I can swap shifts with a colleague.”
She low how much Lia had complained about the complexity of this order, but after two months of hard work, to have it canceled and lose mo blow. The potential income from this deal was significant, and losing it would be a devastating setback
