Crushed Affections (Dominic and Bella)
Crushed Affections Chapter 224

Chapter 224 If Only There's Room for Another Man

Bella was funding on lan's behalf, but she had no intention of getting herself dragged into this mess. Holding back her irritation, she said flatly," Whatever's going on between you two has nothing to do with me. It doesn't matter if he's over you or not. You're his s stepmother now, aren't you? Even if you get divorced, the two of you are done. Unless you're planning to have both of them?"

The woman's face flushed with anger while she was momentarily lost for words. "You..."

Bella waved her hand dismissively. "Look, I've got a lot on my plate. If you're not here as a patient, please leave. Thanks."

The woman stayed put for a moment, her hostility softening into a mix of sadness and hesitation. "Are you and lan seeing each other? He hasn't been with anyone this long since we broke up..."

Bella wanted to mess with her, but the words got stuck in her throat. In the end, she told the truth, "No, we're just friends and colleagues. I actually went to your wedding with Dominie."

Something clicked in the woman's mind as she sighed in relief. "I see. I'm sorry that I misunderstood the situation. I'll leave now."

After finally getting rid of the unwelcome guest, Bella crumpled an old lab report on her desk and tossed it into the trash. It wasn't the woman who annoyed her but the absurd way she had made Bella out to be some kind of love rival.

If only her heart had space for another man, she wouldn't have fallen so hard for Dominie.

That evening, Bella grabbed her car keys and took the elevator to the parking garage. However, when she reached her usual spot, she froze. Her car was gone and replaced by a flashy pink Bently convertible, the sleek design gleaming under the dim garage lights, Bella didn't know much about cars, but even she could tell this one cost a fortune.

She walked around the car while feeling puzzled. Where was her car? For a second, she thought she might be in the wrong spot. However, she knew this garage like the back of her hand. This was definitely the right place.

There was only one person she could think of to call for help, and that was Dominic. After all, the car that went missing was his, so she had to tell him. Just as she was about to dial his number, Dominic was already calling her. She answered while feeling guilty. "Hey, I have something to tell you-"

Dominic cut her off. "I have something to tell you too. Listen to me first. Do you see the pink convertible in your parking spot? The car keys are on the right side of the roof. That's your new car. I've already taken away your old one."

Bella was stunned. "Wait, you did this? I was about to tell yo Dominic sounded amused and said in a happy tone, "I've been meaning to call, but I've been swamped, Well, now you know. Drive it home and drive safe.

When she arrived at Miller Manor, she parked her car and took a few photos before sending them to Lia. She wanted to show off the new car. Even it the car wasn't technically hers, it was hers to drive, and she was feeling a bit smug about it. Lia called immediately. "No way! Are you serious? Dominic really gave you that car?
