Semua Bab She Chose Him, Now She Wants Me Back: Bab 151 - Bab 160

Isabella was so furious that her words came out jumbled and incoherent.Dominic lifted his eyes and gave her a calm glance. He then said to Jessica, "This is my home. She does not have the right to make you leave."Hearing those all-too-familiar words, Isabella froze, as though her mind had gone blank.She remembered now. These were the exact words she herself had spoken back in a past argument. Now they were being returned to her in full, not a single word changed.It was impossible to describe how she felt at that moment.She fell silent for a long time before forcing a smile that looked worse than tears. She walked up to Dominic and spoke in a trembling voice. "Honey, do not treat me like this, okay? It hurts so much. I feel awful…"Jessica frowned and muttered softly, "You brought this on yourself."Dominic replied calmly, "I was once like you. I was miserable and in pain. But I am fine now. The past is over.""No. It cannot be over." Isabella kept shaking her head as tears

"Alright, I'll go call Lily." Isabella's mood lifted noticeably as she said that to Dominic.She truly had the resilience of a cockroach, impossible to crush. Persistent. Stubborn.Even with Dominic's stance already made clear, she still refused to give up.After some time, Isabella emerged with the girl in her arms. The child's eyes were still red as she looked at Dominic and called out softly, "Daddy.""Come eat. Daddy made your favorite barbecue ribs." Dominic filled a bowl of cereal for Lilith and smiled as he handed it to her.He knew his daughter had just cried, and he knew she would cry again in the future. This was something he could not shield her from.Sooner or later, it would happen. When she grew up, accepting it might become even harder.Thus, painful as it was, he still had to take this step toward divorce. His love for his daughter, however, would not diminish in the slightest.No. It was stronger than before. After all, he once loved two people. Now, he loved o

Not long after, Dominic finished washing up and came out.Isabella followed, holding Lilith's hand."Wait a moment. I'll go make breakfast," Dominic said, then headed to the kitchen.Isabella hummed in response. She let the girl play on her phone for a while as she sat on the sofa, lost in thought.When breakfast was ready, Dominic called everyone over to eat.The atmosphere was heavy. Even Lilith, usually so chatty, stayed silent.After the meal, Jessica volunteered, "You all go take care of what you need to do. I'll clean up the dishes.""Do we need you for that?" Isabella asked coldly. She was clearly in a bad mood."I'll do it," Dominic said as he stood. He quickly cleared the table.These tasks had long since become routine for him.Ten minutes later, he washed his hands and walked into the living room.Jessica sat on the sofa watching TV, cracking peanuts one after another, clearly in good spirits.Isabella looked completely different. She seemed distracted and absent

Yvonne turned her head to look at James. Her eyes brimmed with grievance as she said, "She… hit me!"James shook his head and did not spare his wife a glance. Instead, he fixed a steady gaze on Dominic and said, "Dominic, filing this lawsuit goes too far."Isabella hurried forward to stand in front of Dominic, her voice edged with emotion. "Dad, it's my fault. Don't blame him."James frowned. "He's suing you for divorce, and you're still protecting him?"Isabella nodded firmly. "Even if it's only a lawsuit, even if it really ends in divorce, he's still my husband and still the Sinclairs' son-in-law.""Nonsense!" Anger crept into his voice as he gripped his cane and brought it down hard against the ground with a thump.Isabella's face paled slightly. She feared no one else, but her father's authority still made her heart tremble.She had told no one about this matter, yet her father knew anyway and had rushed over early in the morning."The hearing is about to start. My lawyer i

Those words struck Isabella like a fatal blow. Strength drained from her at once. She sank back into her chair and stared at Dominic, her lips trembling as she struggled to speak.Her lawyer rushed to respond. "I have already explained that my client was unaware of Mr. Fleming's injuries at the time. This misunderstanding can be acknowledged and forgiven. My client sincerely asks for forgiveness and hopes Mr. Fleming will give the matter careful consideration."Lydia glanced at Dominic. When she saw his expression remain unmoved, she continued, "My client clearly informed Ms. Sinclair of the injury, yet she chose not to believe him and instead trusted outsiders."Anyone in my client's position would have felt deeply hurt. Trust is essential to marriage. It is the very foundation of its existence. Since trust has been lost on both sides, divorce is the best course of action.""No, no…" Isabella shook her head in anguish. Memories of that day flooded back, and she wished she could sl
