Chapter 35 Right And Wrong

James then shifted his gaze to me. “Dominic will be here later. Don’t worry; nothing bad will happen.”

His words left me baffled. Dominic asked them to come here?

Coincidentally, my phone began to ring with a call from Dominic himself.

“Is James there?” Dominic asked the moment our call connected.

“Yeah, he is here.” The fear in me had subsided immensely. It must be due to the presence of other people in the room. Additionally, Yvonne and the group of doctors were busy inspecting Coraline’s wound.

 

Dominic’s baritone voice sounded especially fierce as he said, “That’s good. They will settle the incident. You should head home right away. Don’t take any more detours and don’t cause any more incidents.”

I can’t believe him! I was utterly terrified; yet, he didn’t even try to comfort me. He even told me not to get into any more incidents. Did he think that I wanted to do this on purpose?

 

In the blink of an eye, his harsh words caused a cold feeling to blossom in my heart.

“Got it,” I said curtly and ended the call.

I shouldn’t be overthinking. Dominic is just cleaning up my mess so that it won’t inconvenience him. After all, I’m now his caregiver. It would tarnish his reputation if I’m labeled as a murderer.

After they finished inspecting Coraline, Yvonne instructed the doctors to carry her out on the stretcher.

“Don’t worry; she isn’t in a critical condition,” Yvonne explained.

I nodded in acknowledgment. “Okay, thank you so much.”

Even Yvonne treated me better than Dominic did. At least she knows how to offer her comfort!

As we went downstairs, I noticed that Coraline had been carried into the ambulance.

Initially, I had plans to head to the hospital too. However, James stopped me from following the ambulance. “Ms. Zanetti, let’s go. I’ll send you home,” he said lowly.
