Chapter 309 A Woman Will Never Lead Me Around


    Be recounted her experience at Klein Manor, and Lia was outraged. "That idiot, Gloriana! I swear I''ll skin her alive! How dare she? If Dominic finds out about this..."


    Lia''s words trailed off as she realized that Be was no longer with Dominic, leaving her without any support.


    Right now, the biggest obstacle Be faced was Dominic himself.


    After Lia went to a nearby pharmacy to buy medicine and bandages, she helped Be dress her wound. They sat in silence together. The beautiful weather outside contrasted sharply with their gloomy mood, like dark clouds looming overhead. Leonard didn''te for lunch, but he had arranged for a seafood feast to be delivered. Several bodyguards brought in enough food to feed everyone in the studio.


    This seafood was no ordinary fare; it included exquisite salmon, king crab, giant lobsters, and sizable abalone. The food was prepared in various styles and filled arge table.


    Before diving into the feast, Lia weighed herself and sent the result to Leonard. "If I gain weight, I''lle after you. I''m about to dig in!"


    Be had little appetite. She ate a small amount of food before copsing onto the couch. Her job applications felt like they had disappeared into a void. Aside from Gloriana''s deliberate harassment, she hadn''t received a single call. Suddenly, she felt as if she couldn''t continue living in Joville. Watching Lia eat joyfully made her hesitant to leave.

    She had brought all her jewelry except the pink diamond Victor had given her. But she didn''t want to sell any of it unless necessary.


    Her sadness felt fragile against the cheerful atmosphere around her. As several young women chatted andughed while eating, she was affected by their joy.


    She shook off the gloom, picked up her phone, and tapped on the camera application. She struck a thumbs-up pose while capturing the moment. She added an inspirational quote and posted it to her Twitter. Meanwhile, in Dusna, Dominic was sitting by the floor-to-ceiling window in his luxurious hotel suite, looking at Be''s post. He took a small sip of red wine, and his expression was


    inscrutable.


    Just up and dressed,n walked over to stroke Pudding. He then lit a cigarette. "Did you see Be''s post? It looks like she got hurt on her hand. Aren''t you worried?"


    Dominic shot him a nce. "Why don''t you get your room instead of crashing here? I don''t like it when it''s too noisy."


    Irritated, Dominic turned off his phone and lit a cigarette as well. "What do you think will make her back down?"

    Dominic inhaled deeply. "I refuse to believe I''ll lose to her. Who does she think she is? A woman will never lead me around.This text is property of N?/velD/rama.Org.
