All Chapters of Eve's Temptation: Bound By His Obsession: Chapter 51 - Chapter 55

-Dominic-I had never heard my mother curse, not when there were rumors of my father’s affairs. Not when tabloids circled our family like vultures.So in the afternoon, when I heard her spit those words with disdain. I knew he’d crossed the line. I knew she’d finally break.It was evening when I reached the estate. The house felt too quiet, I knew my father would be nowhere near here after whatever he had done.I quickly went upstairs to her bedroom where the staff said she’d be, but she wasn’t. I called out to her thrice, without a response.Finally, I found her in his study.She was seating behind his desk, hands clasped in front of her.I’d never seen her like this.For a moment, I just stared.
