Chapter 125

Chapter 125 Want to Move Into My Room?

As soon as Slyvia heard the door open, she came to greet Bella. "You're back! Did you have fun?"

Bella stared at the shoes and asked, "Is Dominic home?"

Slyvia then realized that she hadn't put away the shoes. She bent down quickly to tidy them. "Yes, he got back around 6:00 pm. He dinner. He's been asleep since then. Have you eaten? Do you want me to make you something?" seemed exhausted and skipped

nella shook her head. "No thanks. I'm too tired right now. I just want to sleep."

Bella paused as she passed by Dominic's room. He wasn't supposed to come back for another ten days. Why was he back so early? How did Tang happen? The questions swirled in her mind, but she pushed them aside. After a shower, she collapsed into bed. After these two days, Bella slept soundly from all the tiredness. She didn't stir until moming, and not even a dream broke her restful silence.

When she woke up, she dragged herself to the bathroom to freshen up. On the way back to her room, she slowed down as she passed by Dominic's door and took glance at it. Usually, the door stayed shut tight, a clear barrier between them. However this time, the door swung oper

Dominic stared at Bella with his hazy eyes. He was wearing light-colored pajamas with his hair a little messy. The usual sharpness in his expression softened into something casual

His eyes held a glimmer of amusement. "Your room doesn't have a private bathroom. That must be inconvenient, hula?" Hella was taken aback and withdrew her gaze awkwardly. "It's... It's fine. I've gotten used to it over the years." Dominic shoved his hands into the pockets of his pajama pants and lowered his voice as he offered, "How about you move into

to my room?"

Bella's heart skipped a beat "N-No thanks! I think my room is perfectly fine. I have work to do. I should get ready!"

she jolding? The Dominic

After saying that, she fled back to her room and shut the door behind her only then did she let out a sigh of relief. What just happened? Was h she knew would have never let her set foot in his room, let alone invite her to move in. However, she couldn't run away from it forever. They still had to sit together during brealdast,

At the table, Bella kept her head down. She couldn't taste a thing while chewing on her eggs and sandwich. She just wanted to finish and get away. Being around him had become unsettling. He wasn't the same as before. To her, something about him telt off, like he was toying with her.

She thought Dominic had to be messing with her. Maybe he new how she felt about him and was having fan watching her squirm. If that was his game, she wasn't abour to fall for it

"What are you thinking about?" Dominic asked suddenly.

Bella snapped back to reality and stammered. "N-Nothing. Didn't you say you weren't coming back for another ten days? Why are you home so soon?"

He took a slow sip of his coffee. "Take a guess."

Bella wanted to shoot something back, but she kept her mouth shut. Instead, she stuffed the rest of her sandwich into her mouth, grabbed her bag, and stood up to leave.

She didn't realize the strap of her bag caught on the chair. With one tug, the strap snapped.

For a moment, everything froze. Bella smiled awkwardly and said, "Guess I've ha

had this bag long enough. It's time for a new one... Bye!

Dmonic's eyes narrowed slightly as he watched her leave, amusement glinting in his

Later that evening, just before heading home, Bella called Sylvia to malo suce Dominic wasn't around. Only when she confirmed it did she drive back

When she stepped into her room, her eyes landed on a brand-new designer handbag on her bed. It was the latest model and the dream of every woman. She had admired it before but never seriously considered it because the price tag ran into the tens of thousands. Now, the same bag of that price was sitting there on her bed.
