The Daring Billionaire’s Wife

Chapter 114

Dominic

I furrow my eyebrows, shocked by what Carmella has just said to me.

"What do you mean you're leaving town for good?" I ask, leaning against the wall.

"That doesn't matter. Just meet me as soon as possible!"

"Why do you keep whispering?"

"That also doesn't matter. Just come here as soon as you can!"

"If you have something urgent to say, then just say it here. I'm not coming over there."

"Don't you want to know how Shane found out about us?"

"What? I thought you didn't know that."

Suddenly, the call ends and I look down at the screen with a heavy breath. I instantly call back but no matter how many times it rings, she doesn't pick up.

Frustrated, I step away from the wall and pace in the corridor, wondering what I should do as I look at the office I'm supposed to go to.

Though it's possible that she knew all along and just didn't want to say anything before, or she found out about it now, it's also possible that she's just doing this to get my attention since I didn't get in touch with her after what she told Vanessa.

While I'm conflicted, I'm still trying to find ways to get Shane off my back, so I decide to go to Carmella's apartment.

I head outside to find Vanessa and she's sitting right on the grass with a few kids.

As soon as she looks at me while I approach her, her enthusiasm fades.

I gesture with my head for her to come over while faking a smile for the kids, who genuinely smile back at me.

She excuses herself, her voice extremely gentle and I can't help but compare it once again to how it was when she was harsh with me. Though it's no longer the case, I can't seem to just forget about it.

The children call out to me, trying to get my attention and I just wave at them, then look over at Vanessa as she comes closer while cleaning herself.

"What's wrong?" she asks.

I chuckle softly, amazed by how she knows that something's up before I even say it.
