The Daring Billionaire’s Wife

Vanessa

Though I can't stand Carmella right now, my biggest fear is she'll say something she shouldn't in Mia's presence and it makes my heart beat faster.

Carmella gives her shopping bags to the three bodyguards behind her, crosses her arms and scornfully looks at me from head to toe then fixes her gaze on my stomach.

"Well, well, well, who the fuck do we have here?" She sneers.

Mia gasps in shock behind me.

Quietly stepping out of the elevator, I roll my eyes at the first thing Carmella said to me.

She takes a few steps back but continues to stare right at my stomach.

"I came to shop for a new dress," she says. "I have a date with my boyfriend in two hours. I didn't know my shopping spree would be ruined."

"Is my stomach that captivating?" I smirk.

She scoffs. "I'm just wondering why you're still not showing."

"It hasn't been that long. Are you that dumb?"

"You know what I think?" She pokes her cheek. "There's absolutely nothing in there and you're just taking advantage of Dominic. That's the only reason he came with you on that trip." I sigh. "That's where you're wrong. It was more than that."

"Oh, right!" She chuckles mockingly. "He came to spend time with your dad, that walking corpse!"

Triggered, I slap her across the face and she falls into the arms of her bodyguard, who drops his shopping bag.

Before she can even recover from her shock, I step forward, grabbing her by the collar for more slaps.

"How dare you disrespect my father?" My voice trembles with rage.
