Chapter 43

Vanessa

I don’t know who exactly I’m looking at right now, but I don’t care. He’s so handsome that he almost looks like a prince. He also has a similar build to Dominic

with some

“The name’s Shane. I hope you don’t mind if I join you.” He has the whitest smile I’ve ever seen, and he’s already dripping with arrogance. It’s nothing I can’t handle. I’ve had to deal with Dominic.

As I think about what to do for a few seconds, Dominic comes to mind. He’s free to do whatever he wants and so am I. Looking up at this charming guy, I think to myself, why not start now?

“I don’t mind at all.” I smile at him, my speech a little slow as I get more and more drunk.

“I must admit that I was holding my breath there for a moment,” he says, taking a seat beside me. “I didn’t want you to say you wouldn’t allow me to join you. I’ve been waiting for the right moment to find you all alone.”

“That makes

were spying on me or something.” I scoff.

“Nope. I just couldn’t take my eyes off you. And where’s your husband?”

Though I know where he is, I shrug and say, “I don’t know,”

“Well, until he returns I have you all to myself.” He smirks at me as he strokes his chin. “I have to admit that I never thought I’d see the day when Dominic would turn into this romantic guy who would publicly talk about his love for his wife.”

“What makes you say that?” I’m already intrigued.

Pouring me a glass of wine, he says, “The Dominic I knew would’ve never done such a thing.”

“For how long have you two known each other?” I ask, bringing the glass to my lips.

“He and I go way back. He was so different back in highschool.”

“He was?”

“Yeah, dude was always focused on getting the best grades and winning first place in all the Math and Science competitions. The two of us might have been competitive as hell, but no one could match up to him. He was so freaking smart and wanted everything to be perfect. He was a genius. I think he still is.”

“it sounds like you have only high praises for my husband.”

“Heck no. I’m just saying he’s very competitive but you know what? I like a little competition.” His eyes drop to my collarbone, then back to my face. “Dominic is now the type of man to publicly show how much he cherishes his wife and to be honest, I can see why.” He’s obviously trying to flirt with me and so far, it’s something I can handle.
