Love the Second Time Around

Chapter 64 A Coincidence

I had thought that he escaped. Who knew that he was actually waiting for me? He was just like a ghost who refused to move on.

Before Dominic could say anything, Dad shouted at me, “Dom is kind enough to drive us, Lili. What’s with the attitude?”

“Where are we going, Dad? We’ll hail a cab ourselves. We don’t need him.”

This man was evil, and it was impossible to guard against him.

“Lili!” Dad shouted again.

“I won’t want him to drive me, Dad,” I said in a panic.

Why is this happening? What’s so good about Dominic? They only met him again yesterday, so why are they standing on his side now?

He even pretended to act like a kind and generous man as he said, “Don’t blame Lili, David. There’s just some misunderstanding between us. Sit tight; I’m going to start driving now.”

Misunderstanding? Nonsense. There was only hate between us.

I reached out to try and open the door even when I saw that he was starting to drive. Naturally, it was already locked.

I turned toward Dominic angrily, but he remained calm as he looked in front. “Fasten your seatbelt and sit tight. Stop messing around.”

“Lili, Dom is driving already. Just forget about whatever misunderstanding there is for now and stop throwing a tantrum. Your safety comes first,” Mom said.

Everyone was nagging at me, and I felt so aggrieved at that moment.

I shifted my body and turned toward the window. At least I wouldn’t be able to see Dominic’s face like that.

Mom told me to eat a little something. They had bought some food to eat on the way since they were worried that there wouldn’t be enough time.

However, I had no appetite, so I pretended to be asleep. She stopped trying to talk to me after that.

Throughout the journey, my family was chatting away happily and Dominic would contribute to the topic from time to time.
