Chapter 277 What Does He Want From Her
Bella grinned, feeling at ease. “Felix has always been so land to me, and because we’re friends, I can’t just k back. If I did that, what sort of person would be?”
keep accepting his kindness without giving anything
Lis sighed. “Bella, you should let it go. Maybe it’s time to leave Dominic if things aren’t working out. It’s been a long time, and I’m tired of watching you go through all this. No relationship is smooth sailing, not even mine.
The guy I’ve been talking to online hasn’t replied after I sent him the scarf. It has been days now.”
Bila patted her on the shoulder, unsure it
if she was comforting her friend or herself.
Once inside the car, she felt dizzy and leaned back in the seat, drifting in and out of sleep. She had drunk a lot and was feeling ill.
Ta substitute driver seemed worried. “Boss, this is my first time driving such a car, and I’m a little nervous, so I’ll drive slowly. You’re not in a hurry, right?”
Bella chuckled self–mockingly. “I’m not a boss. I’m just a surgeon. Take your time because there’s no rush
There was no rush anymore because no one was waiting for her to go home.
When they arrived at Miller Manor, Bella took out her wallet and asked, “How much do I owe you?”
The driver said Felix had already paid. He lett before she could react
She put her wallet away and texted Felix, “I’m home. Thanks! I’ll take you for lunch sometime.”
He’d refuse if she tried to pay him back for the driver, so inviting him to lunch seemed the better option.
Bella staggered as she locked her car and entered the house. The living room was pitch–black, and oddly, Pudding didn’t come out to welcome her. Usually, when she heard the car outside, she’d be the first to come running
As Bella wondered what was happening, she felt something brush across her leg. It was Pudding. She knelt in the darkness and petted her. “You’re so black that I almost didn’t see you
Pudding’s tail wagged lazily as she had just awakened from a slumber. And she hadn’t come down from upstairs, so she must’ve been sleeping nearby. But Pudding usually slept in the room she shared with Dominic, not downstairs…
Bella eventually sensed something was wrong, she turned her gaze to the living room couch in the faint light. Faint moonlight came in through the floor–to- ceiling windows, revealing Dominic.
Her breathing instinctively grew quieter. Without thinking, she blurted out, “You’re still awake?”
she didn’t know how dumb it was for her to strike up a discussion when intoxicated. She didn’t think about the fact that there was now another woman in his life. It was only a casual conversation, nothing more
dly over even though they
After a long pause with no answer from him, Bella realized they had nothing further to say to each other. Their relationship was practically hadn’t formally split up,
Dazed, she turned and went upstales. Just as she approached the staircase, a loud crashing noise of glass broke the silence. The sound sounded harsh and clear in the still night.
She froze in her tracks and took a deep breath. She didn’t know whether to stay or leave because he had been ignoring her all this time, so what did he want now? Dominic’s low and seething voice rang out. He could hardly keep his wrath down. “Come here!”
Bella paused for a few seconds before approaching him. As she approached, she stepped on shards of glass, the pieces pressing painfully through the soles of her shoes into her fert. However, she didn’t make a sound and asked calmly, “Is there something wrong? I’m going to bed now.”
