Chapter 109 A Situation with No Outcome

Amber let out a soft scoff, "I won't bother you anymont, I just wanted to go you some good news. I'm leaving. You must be pretty happy about that, right?

But I must say that Miller Manor in't a place for someone like you. You're not from that world. Forcing yourself into it will just make everyone

Bellapressed her lips together. "Are you done? I have work to do. I'm leaving "

Ambet shot her a glance as she stepped into the elevator. "There's no such thing as love that doesn't sour-only eternal interests. Compared to you, I'm far more valuable to Do!!

It wasn't until three days later that nella fully understood what Amber had meant. News broke on the front pages of business headlines-Miller Group and the Yates family had formed a powerful alliance, and photos of the two parties facing the media together were everywhere.

The Yates family relocated overseas years ago, becoming part of an elite circle of overseas Eclacians. With such a prestigious family background, Amber and Dominic med like a perfect match, leaving hella even more insignificant

At the same time, Amber Set Joville and returned abroad. Before the left, it was clear that she had deliberately planted a "bomb" for Bella.

Bella understood all of this, but even if Amber hadn't said anything, she still had no desire to retum to Miller Manor

When Liaheard Amber had left, she was more excited than anyone else. "That scheming bitch is finally gone! Now, you can go back to Miller Manor, Bella, she was just afraid you'd end up with Dominic. You should totally rub it in her face!"

In a low mood, Bella replied, "as it worth it to get back at someone like her by ruining myself? 1 don't plan on going back to Maller Manor. Why? Are you kicking me out of your place?"

Lia shot hit a strange look. "You know very well you're welcome here. But seriously, why don't you want to go back? She's gone. Why leave the place open for her?"

Bella flopped down on the bed, pretending to be dead. However, Lia smacked her until she sat up. Annoyed, Bellacked her legs in protest. "Stop asking! I just don't want to go back. I never believed there would be anything real between Dorsinic and me. "When you know something is bound to and badly, why ven try? A few days ago, I Amber at the hospital. She had a pregnancy report. You know what that means, right?"

Lia, stunned by this unwelcome news, couldn't quite digest it. "Wait, are you saying that she and Dominic are really doing things together? And now she's pregnant? Plus, Miller Group and the Yates family are tied together. Well, it really seems like you're out of the picture now."

Bella's lips tumed pale as she bit down hard. Feeling suffocated, she walked to the window and opened it for air. "I was never in the picture from the start, so stop talking about it "

Though Lia doubted that Bella's calm exterior recred her feelings, she chose to say nothing further

The atmosphere in the apartment grew heavy and teme.

At around 10.00 pm, Lia cut up a watermelon, and the two sat on the bed, eating it while watching a show. When Bella's phone rang, she didn't intend to answer. She just kept her eyes fixed on the laptop scoren

Lia glanced at the caller ID. "It's Dominic. You're not going to answer

bellashook her head, "No nerd, Put it on silent."

Tenminutes later, there was a knock at the door. Suddenly, the watermelon in Bella's mouth tasted less sweet. Lla noticed the dark look on her face and wasn't sure what to do. "It's Dominic, isn't it? Should I open the door?" Bella took a deep breath. "I'll go. You keep watching. I'll be back"

Though Lia was curious, she had no desire to get involved in this mess. She stayed on the bed, listening intently.

When Bella opened the door, Dominic stood there, his expression grim.
