Be was just about to struggle to lift her hands when Dominic grabbed her hand and moved them downward. She knew what could happen next, and her mind couldn''t help but wander, making her heart pound uncontrobly.Text property ? N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org.


    Just as the atmosphere grew more intense, he reached up to pull down her hair tie. Immediately, her silky hair cascaded down, draping over her shoulders.


    He seemed to enjoy the touch of her silky hair. Despite all the chaos, he did not forget to say, "Don''t cut your hair short again. I like it when your hair is long..." Be''s heart raced. It was the first time he''d admitted liking something about her, even if it was just her hair.


    Dominic was about to lift her up when she suddenly grabbed his arm, her face pale. She clutched her belly as she said shakily, "I felt ufortable..."


    She did not seem to be faking her difort, so Dominic quickly stepped back and asked nervously, "What''s wrong?"


    She took a moment to breathe before softly saying, "I think it might have been the baby moving.


    "Let''s forget it. I''ve already had one abortion before, so my body isn''t in the best condition. Let''s not risk anything going wrong."


    Dominic was filled with frustration. He could have restrained himself if they hadn''t started anything. So, stopping now after everything that had just happened was pure torture. However, he did not dare risk the baby. So, he could only wear his clothes unhappily before he sat by the side of her bed.


    Be assumed that he was mad at


    her and felt slightly wronged. So, she said unhappily, "I''m sorry for ruining your mood. You can find yourself another woman to sleep with since it''s just to satisfy your physical needs."

    He immediately reached out to grab her ankle tightly. Then, he said through gritted teeth, "No one would think you''re mute if you keep your mouth shut!


    "Also, are you sure it''s just the baby moving? Do you feel sick? If you don''t need to go to the hospital, then I''ll head back to thepany first."


    Be shook her head to show that she was fine.


    He then got up and covered her body with a nket. "Have a rest. Also, I won''t be dropping by tonight."


    His words saying that he wouldn''t


    was the case.


    Dominic seemed to have realized that his words could be easily misinterpreted, so he exined, "I have to work overtime in thepany. You can call me anytime."


    The second he left, Cara immediately peeked inside Be''s room. "Has Mr. Miller left? Isn''t he staying for a meal?"


    Be wasn''t in the best of moods, so she answered perfunctorily and fell asleep.


    At around nine at night, Dominic suddenly called her. Be answered, thinking it was something important.


    It turned out that he had only called to let herdisten in to the soundsing from his surroundings. He did so to ensure that she wouldn''t suspect him of fooling around.


    Be called him a lunatic, but she did not hang up. Despite hisck of warmth and consideration, his behavior gave her a deep sense of security.
