Semua Bab She Chose Him, Now She Wants Me Back: Bab 201 - Bab 210

Dominic lowered his voice. "What are you doing, Isabella?"Isabella felt deeply wronged. Tears welled in her eyes as she complained, "Honey, she bullied me!"Dominic replied flatly, "I already said it. That was you being stupid. If you can't take it, you can leave this place."Isabella froze.Dominic released his grip.All her strength seemed to drain away. She slowly sank into a squat on the floor and let out soft, miserable sobs.Calm as ever, Dominic said, "If you live here, anyone who dares to lay a hand on someone should leave."With that, he turned and went into the kitchen.Jessica glanced at Isabella crouched on the floor and clicked her tongue. "Sigh, ex-wife. You can still put up with this? If it were me, I'd have blown up at him on the spot. It's not like anyone doesn't have somewhere else to stay."Isabella wiped her tears and stood, her voice turning cold. "None of your damn business. My husband can scold me, even hit me. He only does it because he loves me!"Jes

The effect was immediate.It felt like switching on the high beams of a Porsche, the glare flaring straight into the eyes of the other two. Their expressions hardened at the same moment.The situation turned into a genuine three-way standoff.Dominic felt a sudden, inexplicable tension. He paused, gave the plate in his left hand a small shake, then lifted the spatula in his right. "You guys talk. I'll go cook first."Without waiting for a response, he quietly slipped back into the kitchen.Battlefield? What battlefield?As long as he was not there, there was no battlefield.In the living room, none of the three reacted to Dominic's departure. Silence settled over them, heavy and sharp with tension.At last, Autumn broke it.She sneered at Isabella, "I don't understand how you still have the nerve to cling to Dominic like that."Isabella answered without hesitation, "He's my husband. If I cling to him, that's part of our marital fun. Do you, an outsider, have any right to comm

Autumn fell silent for a few seconds, then sneered, "Isabella, if you had used your intelligence in the right place even once, you wouldn't have ended up like this."Isabella's cheek twitched. She could not deny it.If she had been able to trust her husband without reservation back then, things would never have turned out this way. Now, no matter how much she tried to explain, her words felt thin and powerless.Isabella took a deep breath. "There's no point discussing this anymore. I'm simply stating the facts. In this house, the final outcome will be my husband and me getting back together. You will return to wherever you came from. In the end, you're nothing more than passing guests."Autumn frowned. She shot Isabella a cold look and headed toward the kitchen.Just as she reached the doorway, she heard Jessica's playful laughter. Irritation crept into her voice as she said, "Jessica, didn't you go to the bathroom?"Jessica was chatting with Dominic. When she heard that, she did

Elijah spoke coldly as he stepped straight inside. However, when he clearly saw the figure beside Dominic, his voice cut off mid-sentence.Isabella stood next to Dominic, staring straight at Elijah. Hostility filled her eyes.Elijah frowned. "The Sinclair heiress? Didn't you get divorced?"Isabella replied icily, "What does that have to do with you?"Elijah's tone turned sharp. "Even if your father were here, he wouldn't speak to me like that."His voice faltered again when he noticed Autumn walking over.Elijah looked even more surprised. "Autumn, why are you here too?"Stephen Garcia had business dealings with Elijah, so the latter naturally recognized his only daughter.That form of address made Autumn feel slightly uncomfortable. She answered lightly, "I'm having dinner at Dominic's place."Elijah was momentarily stunned. 'This kid really has luck with women…'Isabella was divorced yet still around, and Autumn was here at this hour as well. There really was something abou

The veins on Autumn's forehead throbbed. "I said, behave yourself."Jessica pouted. Still, since Autumn had not said she planned to stay, Jessica felt relieved. She patted her chest. "No problem. I'll definitely behave."Autumn's gaze flickered, tinged with irritation. "Stop patting. You're making me dizzy."With that, she turned and left.As she walked away, she muttered under her breath, wondering what on earth Jessica had been fed while growing up.In truth, she had felt a fleeting impulse to move in as well. After giving it some thought, she dismissed the idea.If she moved in, the place would descend into chaos every day, and Dominic would not like that. More importantly, she had no standing to do so.She believed she and Dominic were just friends. If she looked a little deeper, she realized she felt a faint fondness for him.Autumn did not know whether that fondness counted as liking him. In her 21 years, she had never had a boyfriend, not even a crush.At present, she f
