Chapter 213 Asking Him to Let Go

Sylvia hesitated. "Mr. Miller instructedto keep i

p an eye on you. He's worried you might hurt yourself."

Bella insisted that she really didn't need help, and after a moment of uncertainty, Sylvia finally walked away.

After her shower, Bella felt much more comfortable and fell asleep before 9:00 pm.

Dominic didn't return huntil the early hours of the morning. Pudding heard him and rushed over, wagging

her tail joyfully.

Feeling tired, he gave her a symbolie pat on the head and raised a finger to her lips in a "hush" gesture,

signaling her to be quiet. Although Pudding couldn't bark, her large size could easily create commotion in the still

of the night. Noticing his gesture, Pudding immediately toned it down and led him upstairs, stopping at Bella's

door and watching him as if urging him to follow.

Dominic chuckled. "I'll be in my room. You can go in and keep an eye on her. Go on."

When Pudding clever.

realized Dominic wasn't following, she entered the room on her own, even using her head to nudge the door

close. She was remarkably

The next day, Bella woke up early. Since she couldn't go to the hospital yet and had nothing to do, she just lay in

bed.

Hearing the sound of someone opening the door softly, she thought it was Sylvia checking on her. Just as she

was about to speak, a warm hand touched her forehead. Startled, she decided to continue pretending to sleep

Dominic confirmed that her temperature was normal and carefully tucked her in. He then called Pudding out of

the room.

Once she heard the door close, she finally opened her eyes. What was going on with him now? Why was he

being so gentle all of a sudden? With his behavior, she had to constantly remind herself to stay alert and not get

carried away, which was exhausting. After a while, her phone rang. Seeing that it was an unknown number, she

answered casually, "Hello? Who is this?"

She recognized Simon's voice on the other end. "Bella, it's me."

Bella fell silent. After his company went bankrupt, Elaine cto her, causing a scene and even hitting her. He

hadn't shown up since then, so what did he want now?

She considered hanging up but felt a pang of discomfort at the hoarseness in his voice

I've lost everything."

She didn't understand what he meant. "Yes, you've lost everything. No one is out to get you anymore. The only

people who won't let you go are yourselves. This has nothing to do withand even less to do with Dominic."

There was a pause on the line. "My wife was in a car accident, and it was deliberate. It happened last night."

Bella's heart raced. Was Simon implying that Dominic had someone do that? She found it hard to believe.

Dominic had no reason to do such a thing especially not for her. Besides, she and Domine had just returned from

the island the night before hapter 213 Mung Him to Let Do

Displeased, she responded, "A person like you has probably offended countless people. Think it over; who else

might want to do this? Don't contactagain. I'll act as if you never existed."

After hanging up, doubts began to swirl in her mind. Since Simon suspected something, he must have a reason

for it. Should she ask Dominic about it?
