All Chapters of She Chose Him, Now She Wants Me Back: Chapter 261 - Chapter 270

Dominic had Jewel step out of the car in front of the office building.She asked in surprise, "You're not going back to the office?""I've got something else to handle. I need to head out.""Alright."After leaving the office, Dominic called Oliver.When Oliver picked up, he snapped irritably, "Why the hell are you calling me again?"Dominic felt at a loss for words and spoke with clear displeasure. "Damn it, can you watch your attitude?"Oliver sneered, "With you, I'll never have a good attitude. If you've got something, spit it out. If you don't, fart it out.""I want a private investigator," Dominic said. "A professional one."Oliver's voice carried heavy suspicion. "What do you want one for? To investigate Bella?""What are you talking about?" Dominic was rendered speechless again. "Just tell me if you have one or not."Oliver fell silent for a few seconds before replying reluctantly, "Yeah. He has a branch in Skyline City. I'll have someone give him a heads-up. You can

The young woman who once bounced around with a constant grin had become frail and sickly, and even Dominic's voice carried a trace of worry.It had to be said that Jessica was strikingly beautiful. At 19, illness only made her seem more delicate and fragile, enough to stir instinctive sympathy.What stood out even more, however, was the blanket rising over her body, its contours exaggerated and unmistakably dramatic.Dominic felt a surge of unease. He turned around, intending to step out and call someone to have the little menace sent to a doctor.Just as he reached the door, Jessica stirred and slowly woke. She caught sight of a man's silhouette in the room, jolted in fright, and called out weakly, "Who is it?"Dominic turned back. "You're awake?"When Jessica realized it was him, she froze for a heartbeat, then tried to sit up in excitement. "Dominic… am I dreaming?"He hurried over to support her. "Dream my ass. You think someone could fake being me?""I didn't mean that…" J

At that moment, Dominic's mind buzzed, on the verge of bursting. He had drunk tonight, but he could not tell whether the alcohol or the person before him had intoxicated him.Either way, he already felt drunk and had lost all restraint. Without thinking, he reached out and set his hand on Jessica's smooth back, taking the lead at once.Jessica's eyes widened, bright with unmistakable delight.After that, neither of them spoke. Dominic's hands moved with deliberate confidence.Jessica responded with even greater precision.The spark caught at once, like gunpowder primed to explode.At the final instant, a sliver of clarity flashed through Dominic's eyes. With iron resolve, he forced himself upright and said, "You still have a fever. I'm going to get your medicine."After that, he straightened his clothes and rushed out, as if in flight.Jessica froze in place, caught between emotions. Then she pouted, clearly displeased. "What the heck! We were one step from success, and you qui

"She's taken the medicine and is sleeping now. It won't be long before she recovers," Dominic said.Roy's face lit up. "That's good. That's very good."Dominic paused for a few seconds before continuing, "Roy, Jessica's parents aren't here. As her butler and bodyguard, aside from ensuring her safety, there are some things you can't ignore. Before, when she was racing around recklessly, associating with questionable people, and during those other incidents, you should have stopped her."Under normal circumstances, he would not have said this, but the situation was too obvious to overlook.Jessica's family lived in the capital. In Skyline City, only her uncle carried any authority. Someone of his rank stayed buried in official duties and had no time to manage her affairs.Roy smiled bitterly. "Maybe Miss Hale behaves differently around you than she does with others. We can't control her, and we don't dare try. As for the last incident, I already reported it to her parents. Their res

Katherine froze when she saw Isabella's expression.Dominic frowned as well.Isabella let out a bitter laugh and shook her head, tears blurring her vision. "Ridiculous. Absolutely ridiculous. Isabella, you're a complete failure…"Hopelessness swallowed her, and her thoughts hovered on the brink of collapse.Dominic shifted, clearly uncomfortable.Katherine hurried over and helped her up, her eyes red. "Bella, go to bed first. Whatever you want to say, we can talk tomorrow.""Sleep?" Isabella's gaze was empty, her voice hollow. "Kathy, what's the point of sleeping?"Katherine stiffened, her voice trembling. "B-Bella, don't scare me like that."Dominic grew irritated, torn between staying silent and explaining himself. He muttered, "Stop acting like this. Jessica is sick. I went to see her. Nothing like what you're imagining happened."Some things had happened. Others had not.At his words, Isabella suddenly came alive.Light flared in her eyes as she rushed in front of him, h
