Chapter 59 Dominic While looking in the mirror, I fumble with my necktie and it's frustratingeven more because I'm running out of time. I know my father will be callingonce again, demanding that I hurry for the emergency meeting this evening As I finally get it right, I tilt my head to the side, glancing at Carmella through the mirror. She's all curled up on my bed.
Ever since she returned from the orphanage, she hasn't stopped crying, feeling awful about accidentally hurting little Billy. I didn't expect her to be perfect. That's why I understood her and made sure to clear things up.
Finally done with my necktie, I quickly get what I need so I can bead outside.
But before I leave. I head over to her with a sigh. "Babe, you need to stop blaming yourself." She sniffles as she sits up, wiping her tears with more tissues. “I just can't help i it. You should've seen the way Billy looked at me, like I was a monster. He was so scared of me." "It's just like you said. You were caught of guard, so you flinched and ended up hurting him.” "You're really not mad at me?" She pouts.
"Of course not." I smile. "We'll talk about this when I return. I love y She smiles back. "I love you too, babe." you.
After a quick kiss, I head out of the bedroom, my phone already ringing again and I know it's my father.
"Hello?" I say to him.
"Where are you?" I'm already on my way." "Hurry up or I'm leaving without you." "I'll be there soon." I hurry even more, not wanting him to go without me. I'm now part of the team.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJust as I step outside, Vanessa's car pulls up. I want to know all about her tat the orphanage with the children, but that'll have to wail As soon as she steps out of the car, I look over at her and say, "I'm very busy now, so tellabout it when I cback "Oh, okay." She slumps her shoulders and lightly shakes her head. She actually seems disappointed, like she was looking forward to tellingabout it right away.
As soon as I faster my seatbelt, I turn on my laptop, trying to get up to speed with what's going on and at the stime, I plan to keep texting my father to update him on where I am.
Vanessa 1/3 Chapter 59 I'm a little disappointed that I didn't get the chance to talk to Dominic right away because he was in a rush. Who knows when he'll be back and what that was about? No matter how long it takes, I have to tell him about what Carmella did. I'm just hoping he'll actually believe me. The best pärl is that the other people at the orphanage will also youch for me. That'll definitely get rid of any doubts he'll have just by depending on what I say.
After this, I hope Carmella never goes back there. Who knows what she'll do next time? I've seen just how heartless she can be.
I'm so frustrated about not being able to tell him right away that I huff as I step out of the elevator.
I even fumble with my keys and grunt with irritation. It's never takenthis long to unlock my bedroom door. Just as I'm about to close my bedroom door after unlocking it, I feel an external force from the other side, so I open the door and I see Carmella. Not only am I surprised that she's here, but it's also the puffy and teary eyes along with tissues in her hand that catchoff guard. Why the hell is she crying? "What do I want?" I ask, narrowing my eyes at the state she's in. It just doesn't feel right I'm glad you're back," she says, her voice emotional as she steps inside my bedroom without my permission.
I'm too stunned to even stop her. I turn around to face her and notice her hunched back while she continues to sob. Then, she turns to facewhile still facing the floor.
"Ever since I cback from the orphanage, I've been feeling awful, she says. "That's why I told Dominic about how I hurt that little boy when I didn't mean it. I didn't want Billy to seeas a monster." I'm actually in disbelief at how she's acting right now, and it makesshake my head at her.
"What the hell are you doing?" I ask, not moved by her words and state.
"Do you know what Dominic said after I told him what happened? He said that I'll get better next tand he understands that it was an accident. That's why..." She sniffles, straightens up, drops the tissues right on the floor and raises her eyebrows atas she pokes out her hip. There's nothing you can fucking do about it. Her voice tone changes to the regular mean tone I'm used to.
I scoff. "I'm glad I didn't believe you for one second. That was horrible acting "Bitch, it doesn't matter. I know you were planning on telling Dominic, but no matter what you say, he won't believe you at all. Do you know why? It's because he already believes me. He even called the orphanage and apologized on my behalf. That's why there's nothing you can say to him that'll change his mind I can't help but clench my fists at how she made this work in her favor. It actually makes my blood boil. "How could you act this way despite knowing what you did back there?” I ask, trying to keep myself composed, your head.
She sneers. "Isn't it yet obvious that I don't give a fuck? Let that sink into you "I don't doubt the fact that you're crazy. That explains why you just took off your heels and ran off" She turns serious and points at me. “You better mind your own Business when it comes to that. Just know that whatever you planned to say to my man, shove it up your ass. You might've won the previous round when I was forced to pick up stupid bear, but I definitely won this round.
She cackles, heading to the door while humming mockingly.
Despite the frustrations I feel even after she's gone, I need to find a way to tell Dominic. But at this point, just telling him 2/3 3/3 Chapter 59 what happened won't be enough. I need evidence. No matter what it takes, I'll make things right.
It's 9 in the morning and I learn from one of the butlers that Dominic's not om yet back. I wonder what's going on. I don't even want to text him or call and ask. He'll just say it's none of my business.
With breakfast served at the table, I sit on the far end while Carmella sits on the other side.
er side. I don't even bother looking in her direction. I know we're supposed to act like friends, but to hell with that. I'm certain that no one working here actually believes it. I had the option to have my breakfast in my bedroom, but this is my house, not hers.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe glares ata few times, but there's nothing she can say toright now in the presence of the maids and butlers on standby.
"Do you guys have to be here?" she says to them in annoyance. Co to another room or something. It's difficult to enjoy my breakfast like this. Geez! "Everyone, stay right where you are," I step in, my tone authoritative.
"Yes, Ma'am, they all say in unison..
She glares atagain and I just narrow my eyes. It I'm the one in charge here.
While I look away from her and have my meal, I can't stop thinking about what I can do to corvinde Bominic of what the actual truth is. I finally think of something and hope it'll work out perfectly when I decide to do it. Now that I've had enough breakfast, it's tto leave. I don't want to be in close proximity with her for too long.
But just before I get up, my phone rings and I giggle at the caller ID. It's Mia, my best friend. I've been wanting to talk to her/ since yesterday.
"Wow! Your phone's finally back on. Why was it off for so long?" say to Mia, glancing at Carmella as she pours herself shot tea.
"I just had so much to do with moving and all!" she says from the other end of the line.

"Patrick Kentworth!" Suddenly, Carmella spits out her hot tea and her mug slips from her hand, instantly burning her.
