Chapter 1545


    Chapter 1545


    Belinda found herself at a loss for words.


    She had seen conceited people before, but never anyone this delusional.


    Did he honestly think he was a catch? Where did he get the nerve? Didn’t he own a mirror, or at least a


    reflective pond?


    A wave of annoyance washed over her, but given that the man was the son of her mother’s friend, she


    felt it was inappropriate to be too harsh.


    Dominic, noticing Belinda’s silence, naturally assumed that he had wowed her with his “wisdom.” A


    self-satisfied smirk spread across his face as he


    continued.


    “Ms. Wesley, there’s no need for introductions. I’ve heard about your background from my folks. You


    don’t need to feel inferior. I’m not bothered by it. Why don’t we give dating a shot?”


    Belinda was bbergasted. He had more baffling statements up his sleeve. “You’re not bothered by


    me? Sorry, but what could possibly bother you about me?”


    “I heard you were engaged once before. You were even close to tying the knot, right? But the wedding


    ended up being quite a fiasco, and you eventually broke it off, right?”


    Belinda nodded. Yes, that was indeed true. So what?


    Dominic shook his head. “You need to be realistic. To most men, a woman like you is practically


    considered a divorcee. But I’m willing to ignore societal norms and ept you. What’s holding you


    back?”


    What? Practically a divorcee?


    How dare he say that about her?!

    Belinda was so irate that she could no longer hold back her anger. Regardless of whose son he was,


    she was ready to let him have it.


    “Hahaha! This is hrious! Mr. Dominic, have you ever taken a good, hard look at yourself in the


    mirror? I usually don’t judge people based on looks to avoid bruising their egos, but you are so impolite


    that I see no reason to be courteous towards you!


    You are remarkably unattractive, and you don’t look 28 at all. You look more like 48! You look older than


    my dad!


    Don’t tell me that’s your ‘mature charm. I’ve met genuinely mature and charming men, and trust me,


    you’re nothing like them!


    And so what if I’m not highly educated? My family is wealthy! I canfortably afford whatever I desire


    without having to stress about academics. What’s wrong with being adored by my family? Are you


    jealous?


    Yes, I almost got married once. That’s true! But how can a so-called brilliant man like you fail to


    comprehend such a basic concept?


    Almost getting married means I didn’t actually get married! Do you understand the meaning of ‘almost?’


    If not, I’d suggest you go back to school and hit the books again! What’s the point of having a degree if


    you don’t even understand basic logic? And you have the audacity to look down on others for theirck


    of education? Ha!”


    Upon hearing himself being criticized so harshly by a woman, Dominic’s face turned beet red with


    anger and embarrassment. He stammered, “You…”
