Semua Bab She Chose Him, Now She Wants Me Back: Bab 121 - Bab 130

"Dinner's ready." Dominic brought the dishes out, said only that to the two women on the sofa, then went to call Lilith.His footsteps were light. He stopped behind the girl and saw her gripping a mechanical pencil, clicking it over and over.When he noticed her exercise book, his face darkened, and his mood sank with it.The girl was writing an essay titled "My Dadd".Dinner was already on the table, yet Lilith had not even finished the title."Lilith Fleming." Dominic clenched his teeth and forced out each word.The girl jolted, spun around in panic, and met her father's grim expression.She put on a nervous smile. "Daddy… why are you here?"Dominic sneered and pointed at her exercise book. "Don't call me Daddy when you can't even finish the title."Lilith glanced down, quickly added the missing stroke, then hugged Dominic's arm and shook it. "See? It says Daddy now."Dominic sighed helplessly. "Come out and eat. After dinner, finish your homework. And tonight, you're not a

Autumn frowned. "I'm here to check on Dominic. I'd rather ask what you're doing here."Isabella let out a cold, clipped laugh. "My husband and daughter are here. What do you think I'm doing? But you showing up at this hour is the real problem."My husband has a family. Do you really think it's appropriate for you to come over so late? If you had even a shred of morality or shame, you'd stay far away from a married man."Autumn did not expect the so-called defeated wife to bare her claws so suddenly.Her gaze darkened. "Morality and shame? Of course I have them. Whether you do is another matter. But none of that matters anymore. You two are getting divorced soon.""Oh, so you're waiting for my husband to get divorced?" Isabella scoffed. "You're practically waving your plans in my face. Too bad for you, I don't agree to the divorce. And even if we did divorce, we still have Lily. We're not leaving this home. Give up while you can, sweetheart."Autumn's pupils narrowed as her voice

The moment he entered the company, quite a few people began sizing him up, especially the female colleagues. Many pairs of eyes lit up, and more than a few glances lingered on him.Dominic stood out too much to go unnoticed. His features were sharp, his build tall, and his outfit that day drew attention without trying. He looked energetic, with a presence that naturally commanded notice.A woman in her 30s walked over and spoke."Hey, handsome, do you need any help?"She looked presentable, dressed in a fitted pencil skirt that showed off her figure and added a touch of charm. A work badge hung around her neck. Her name read Denise Foster.Dominic smiled. "Miss Foster, my name's Dominic. I passed the interview the other day. I'm here to complete my onboarding."Denise's eyes brightened at once.She was not the only one. Several people in the office area wore looks of surprise.It was Dominic's first day, and everything still felt unfamiliar.Denise spoke with enthusiasm. "Come w

Tom secretly swore that he would never wrong his wife again, but that resolve lasted only until evening. He leaned back against the sofa and checked his phone. A few photos had come in from someone. His eyes lit up at once.At the same time, Leona brought over hot water and gently washed his feet.When she finished, he pretended to massage her back and said, "Honey, some friends want to get together. I'll just grab a meal and come right back.""Mmhmm." Unsuspecting, Leona nodded. "Don't stay out too late. Do you have enough money? I'll transfer you 1,000 dollars."Tom's heart had already flown out the window. He nodded quickly and hurried out the door.From that point on, he changed completely.Even while watching a movie with Leona, if he stepped into the bathroom and spotted an ad taped to the door, he could not resist writing down the number.These days slipped by without her noticing, stretching into a full year.Over that year, in corners Leona could not see, he spent more

"You can call me Mr. Fleming," Dominic said calmly. "Let's make a deal. I need your help with something. If I'm satisfied, I'll help you fulfill your wish. Do you agree?"Someone like this was hardly worth helping. Still, helping him meant helping Leona. More importantly, Dominic could use Tom to achieve his own goal.Tom's eyes lit up. He nodded at once. "I agree. I completely agree. Mr. Fleming, as long as you can help me, I'll do anything."Dominic fixed him with a steady stare, his voice low and firm. "Good. Starting today, you'll wait at the place where we just met. When I need you, I'll come find you. If you leave that place, our deal is void. Do you understand?""No problem," Tom said without hesitation. To him, Dominic was his only hope.Dominic smiled. "Then it's settled. You can go."Tom hesitated before asking, "Sorry, but what do you want me to do?"Dominic's smile remained, but his eyes turned icy. "Kill someone. Not just one. Do you dare?"Tom froze for a brief mo
