Dominic stayed silent and gave her a warning look

Bella sighed and changed into a pair of light–colored skinny jeans. When she get into the car, Dominic still looked annoyed.

she muttered, “If you think I’m embarrassing, then stop bringing me out. Can we please just stop this? than seeing you upset, and it’s making me miserable too.”

Dominic still didn’t say a word. He put on his sunglasses and drove. Bella couldn’t see his expression, but his pursed tips suggested he was unhappy.

When they arrived at Sawyer Manor, Bells was the first one out of the car. She couldn’t understand why Domine had picked her up if he disliked her so much. Couldn’t she he just taken acab? She didn’t want to be around him if he was going to belittle her.

Bella suppressed her anger and took several deep breaths to calm herself. No wonder he thought she was going through a rebellious phase. She would never have dared to be so defiant with him before.

She realized she had grown bolder lately, probably because she had nothing to lose. Not caring about his opinion anymore was surprisingly Thering

Walking Into the living room, she saw that the glass wall that had been riddled with bullet holes had been replaced it was clearly three times thicker than before and was now bulletproof. They had learned their lesson.

Today was a family gathering, and the atmosphere was relatively harmonious. However, despite the Sawyer family’s many bodyguards, Bella couldn’t help but glance around nervously. She was afraid that someone would shoot gain after what had happened last time.

At the dinner table, Dominic had quite a few drinks, and Bella had a couple of glasses as well. When it was time to leave, someone from the Sawyer Camily was sent to drive them Bella and Dominic sat in the back seat. Dominic, who had had a bit too much to drink, looked unwell and leaned the car seat with his eyes cl

On the other hand, Bella was wide awake but found the silence a line boring. She turned her head to watch the passing scenery through the window.

Suddenly, she felt a hand on her thigh. Turning her head slowly, she saw that Dumink still had his eyes closed, as if his hand were there casually. She tried to move her leg away, but his fingers tightened slightly

“Don’t move,” he mured.

She frowned and besitated hot then remained still. She tried to ignore his hand, but he kept gently squeezing it, making it impossible for her to do so

As if that weren’t bad enough, she noticed his hand slowly creeping up her thigh. Fearing that the driver might see, she grabbed his hand and said, “We’re almost there. Are you feeling okay?”

He mumbled, “Ye

Then, he turned her hand around so their ingen interlaced. She could clearly feel the warmth of his palm

Bella’s heart fluttered. He must have been really drunk to act like this Ahough she didn’t secretly feel happy or try to pull away, she let him hold her hand until they got home. She gently reminded him, “We’re here. Let’s get out.”

Dominic opened his eyes, let go of her hand, and dismissed the driver with a clear head lett Bella puzzled. Was he drunk or sober?

Seeing that Dominic was standing steadily, Bella didn’t worry about him coming in, so she went in first

The hand he had held all along was slightly warm, and she felt a mix of emotions.

As she changed her shoes at the entrance, she heard footsteps approaching from behind. She stepped aside and picked up his slippers.

Suddenly, nella’s arm was grabbed, and she was pushed against the wall Domine leaned in close, his breath warm with alcohol, and whispered, “sleep with me tonight”
