Chapter 84 What More Do You Want from Me

Having probably never encountered much darkness in her life, Bella couldn't believe that Simon would go to

such lengths. After all, Bella was his biological daughter. Even if he had abandoned her, they still shared the

sblood. How could he be so cruel?

When Simon first found her in the small town and saw the letters her mother had left behind, his regret and tears

seemed genuine. If he could so easily fake heartbreak in that situation, then Simon was even more terrifying

than she had imagined. With a glimmer of hope, she locked on Dominic's door

When he opened the door and saw her, his eyes darkened slightly. Her hands trembled as she held the

documents, and her eyes were red and brimmed with tears.

She asked him softly, her whole body trembling as if she might collapse,

Leaning against the doorframe, Domine hesitated, then said, "Maybe | shouldn't have told you"

Bella's tears finally fell, but she quickly wiped them away. "I understand," she whispered, her voice barely

audible. "Thank you. I'm fine"

with that, she turned and left, her steps faltering

Dominic raised his hand, then lowered it.

The adult world was cruel. There are certain things they couldn't avoid facing.

Simon's mistake was showing up in Bella's life with ulterior motives from the start. For speople, it was better

never to appear at all. They should have remained s forever.

bella returned to her room and repeatedly shaded the document. She was so familiar with it that she could

almost recite it word for word.

in a fit of rage, she tore the photos her mother had left behind into shreds, ripping out any parts featuring Simon.

She wasn't the most pathetic or laughable, her mother was. Dorothy had met a real scumbag in her prime, and

her life had never tasted sweetness until the end.

Even after all that, she couldn't calm down. As soon as she lay down, her mind was flooded with the terrible

things Simon had done.

At one point, she even wished viciously for Simon's sick daughter to die, as if that would bring her peace. But the

real culprit was Simon himself.

Late at night, she took a bottle of wine and went to the cooltop terrace. The view was pleasant, and the peace

was soothing. No matter how depressed she felt, no one could see her there

Her vision blurred from the alcohol when her phone rang.

She picked up the call and saw it was from an unknown number. Assuming it was Simon using a new number,

she answered but remained silent.

Sure mough, after offering a sincere" apology, Simon suddenly asked, "Are you really in a relationship with

Dominic?"

Bella didn't answer. She just laughed coldly and asked, "What else do you want from me?"

Simon was silent for a few seconds. "Nothing I'm just concerned about you. It's late. Get srest I'm hanging

up.”

After the call ended, Bella casually blocked the number, though she couldn't remember how many times she'd

done it with Simon's.

She tossed her phone aside and leaned over the railing, gazing at the garden below, which lay silently asleep in

the night. The many flowers in the garden still displayed vibrant colors under the moonlight, while she felt

increasingly faded. At 25, she had achieved little, with her love life and personal life still in disarray. She laughed

bitterly to herself, "What's the point of living? It's just a waste of oxygen."

Dominic's sudden shout startled her, causing! her to slip and lose her balance, her body going over the railing
