Lahat ng Kabanata ng She Chose Him, Now She Wants Me Back: Kabanata 361 - Kabanata 370

Lydia's expression stiffened, a hint of discomfort flashing across her face. She was only a lawyer. Unlike Autumn or Jessica, she lacked their confidence and presence. Aware of Isabella's identity and faced with such open hostility, she did not dare argue back.Dominic frowned. "Isabella, are you sick in the head?"Isabella ignored him. Her gaze fixed on Lydia, her expression icy. "I told you to leave. Don't you understand?"Lydia's lashes fluttered. In appearance, figure, status, and background, Isabella surpassed her in every way. With Isabella's presence fully unleashed, those words crushed her with humiliation. She could only turn to Dominic for help.He stepped forward and shoved Isabella aside. "Move."She was unprepared and stumbled, nearly losing her balance.Dominic did not spare her a glance. He turned to Lydia. "What brings you here today?"Lydia exhaled softly, forced a smile, and said, "I was just passing by and thought I'd ask if you wanted to have dinner together.

Isabella hurried to the passenger side and tugged at the door, but it was locked and would not budge.She blurted out at once, "Honey, unlock it. Hurry!"A horn blared from behind them, urging the car to move.With no choice, Dominic unlocked the doors.Isabella's face lit up. She discreetly gave the driver behind them a thumbs-up, yanked the door open, and slipped inside.Dominic drove straight into the underground parking garage without a word.He lit a cigarette and forced himself to calm down before speaking. "Isabella, what do you actually want?""Honey!" Isabella complained, clearly unhappy. "What do you mean, what do I want?"Dominic snapped, "We're already divorced. Divorced. Do you understand? Other than Lily, I want nothing to do with you for the rest of my life.""How is that possible?" Isabella stared at him in disbelief. "How can you say something so heartless? You're my husband, my only man. How can we have nothing to do with each other?""I'm fucking sick of yo

"What am I supposed to confess? What do you want me to confess?" Lydia covered her cheek and sobbed uncontrollably. "I'm just a nobody. If you want to bully me, you don't need to invent such high-sounding excuses!"Isabella met her gaze with calm composure, staring straight at her as if trying to see through the act.If Lydia merely wanted to pursue her husband, Isabella would not be pleased, but it would not warrant such violent measures. Take Autumn and Jessica, for example. They came from powerful families, yet even if they harbored ill intentions toward her husband, Isabella would not fear them.Lydia was different. Her appearance came at a moment that felt far too deliberate. Not long ago, Dominic had been betrayed by his chauffeur and narrowly escaped a heart-stopping fire. Isabella refused to let him face further danger."Looks like you're not going to talk," Isabella said flatly.She lifted her hand, and the three men moved in.Terror seized Lydia. Her body shook as she s

After hanging up, Dominic did not go to bed. He stared at Isabella's number on his phone for a long time, lost in thought, before finally putting it away.Another WhatsApp message came through, this one from Lydia.Lydia: [Bro, your ex-wife is really insane… If it weren't for you, I'd really have been done for tonight!]Unease filled every line. A flicker of coldness crossed Dominic's eyes. He replied with a reassuring message.Dominic: [It's okay. I've already warned her. She won't come looking for trouble again. Don't worry.]Lydia replied at once.Lydia: [But I'm still really scared. Where are you? Could you… come keep me company?]Dominic: [It's too late. I've already gone to sleep. Next time.]Lydia: [Oh, okay… *disappointed*]Dominic read the message and chose not to respond.…The next morning, as soon as Dominic reached the company entrance, he noticed a young man standing there, looking awkward and uneasy.He greeted him. "Brian."Brian's eyes lit up when he saw h

"Sir! Yara is only 18! She has trouble walking and can only sit in a wheelchair. She can barely control one hand. S-She dragged this broken body of hers out to work all by herself…"By the time he finished, Ryan was already choking back tears.Dominic felt moved as well. "Are you going to see her now?"Ryan nodded over and over, his words tumbling out in a rush. "My uncle sold our old house. Max is locked in the basement and survives on leftovers. My aunt even said that if they want to live there, they have to pay rent. Yara had no choice. She really had no choice!"Ryan's eyes burned red, fury simmering beneath the grief.Dominic felt a heavy knot form in his chest. His voice turned cold. "To think there are relatives like that."They took the inheritance for themselves, sold the house the family relied on to survive, and forced a girl with cerebral palsy to go out and work. It was hard to believe such people were human."Sir, I'm begging you. I'll kneel, I'll do anything. Plea
