The Daring Billionaire’s Wife by Lypstical

Chapter 91 Vanessa Ever since Dominic toldhis exact reason for being worried aboutafter he received that call about the accident, I haven't been the saround him.

I already had this in mind, but that moment has maderealize that what I feel shouldn't change into anything more than it already is.

Not only did that driveto hug Patrick as soon as I stepped out of the car, it's also the reason why I barely paid attention. to Dominic while he was still around.

After bluntly tellingabout his goal to take over the company as soon as possible, how dare he kisslike that before he left? Even now, as I sit back down in my chair, I can't stop thinking about it. The taste of his lips is still on mine. I can even feel his warm breath and his hands around my waist. I'm his fucking wife and I should act like it? What a joke.

"You know... I thought you would take forever out there," Patrick says toin a serious tone, grabbing my attention.

"Why d "Why did you think I was going to take forever?" "Because you were with your husband and you know... you two were just going at it What are you talking about?" He scoffs. "Con. It's broad daylight, but the way you too were just-" "I get it. I know what you mean." I playfully roll my eyes.

"Is Dominic always like that? Does he always want to show off whenever he gets the chance that you belong to him?" "Did you feel like he was showing off?" I narrow my eyes, "I'm your ex boyfriend. Obviously, yes. It doesn't take much to put two and two together." He suddenly clenches his jaw hard, and I notice his shoulders rising and falling rapidly as he breathes louder. "Hey, are you okay?" I ask with concern.

"I'm fine." He sighs deeply.

Since I don't want to eat anymore, I order sjuice, trying to engage in small talk with Patrick, but he barely responds as he focuses more on his food.

Just as I'm about to start drinking my juice, my phone rings and the caller ID makesraise my eyebrows a little.

"Is everything okay?" he asks, leaning forward.

"It's my husband," I say to him, not leaning forward this tas I did several times before.

"Wasn't he here less than thirty minutes ago?" That's just what I was thinking. I hope nothing happened. Just givea second." "Sure." 1/3 He leans back and looks away, and I'm certain he pokes his cheek though I can't see the other side of his face.

1 pick up the call, holding my breath.

"Hello?" I say to Dominic.

"I just got home," he says from the other end of the line.

I sigh with relief. I actually thought something happened. Is that why you called?" "No. I just called to say one thing.

"And what's that?" "Don't fuck him." "What?" "Don't you dare fuck him." And with that, the call abruptly ends, makinglook down at the screen as I part my lips in disbelief.

"Is everything okay with you?" Patrick asks.

"Yeah, everything's fine. I fake a smile.

I'm glad to hear that. So, I was thinking. He trails off, leaning towardwith an enthusiastic smile. “After we leave here, we can go to my-" I can't. I cut him off.

"Oh.." He nods, leaning back in his seat again with a heavy sigh.

I know that while Dominic was here, I wanted to get on his nerves, so I paid a lot of attention to Patrick and leaned toward/ him so many times. But I don't want to do that anymore because it seems that Patrick has taken it as a sign that there could be something between us. It's quite the opposite. It's my fault for starting this and now I feel awful.

"Uh...I should be leaving soon. The launch is coming up and my dress isn't ready yet.” "I see." I can tell just how disappointed he is.

"We could always do this sother time, I say to him.

"Yeah...sure.

The rest of the conversation turns awkward as I don't seem to loosen up the way I did before and he's picked up on that. If only I could tell him the truth.

After I use the restroom, we head outside together and I try to ease the awkwardness between us.

So...what was your first impression of my husband?" "Well, he's a show off, but a good guy? 1 chuckle, completely agreeing with him.

"Are we heading in the sdirection?" I ask, standing by the open car door.

2/3 "No. I just realized there's something that I need to take care of I nod in understanding. I guess I'll see you next time." Uh yeah. See you next time."

He awkwardly scratches the back of his neck and I know it's because this is quite the opposite of how 10 M received him just when he arrived, and I really regret it now. Was I being that petty just so I could get over what Dominic said to me? I wave at Patrick, forcing myself to smile, then get in the car. Even as it drives off, he just stands there, looking at me.

Finally facing forward, I rest the back.

of my head against my seat and close my eyes. That was too extrof me, but what was I supposed to do? I was upset and hurt.

Judging by the way Dominic kissedoutside and the phone call not to m fuck Patrick, he wa he was certain there was something between us, but he's absolutely wrong. Not even when Patrick heldin his arms did I feel anything for him. From the beginning, it was clear that Dominic agreed to marryjust so he could please his father. His goal to take over company is something that's also been obvious to me. But now that I've developed sfeelings for him. I forgot what the this meant to him.

Now that it's clear again, how do I stop myself from deeply falling for him? SEND GIFT COMMENT X
