The Daring Billionaire’s Wife

Dominic I hurry back home as I'm so eager to find out what's going on with Vanessa and as soon as I open the front doors and take a few steps in, I slow down in my tracks at the sight of my entire family, including my father-in-law gathered in the living room.

As I get closer and make eye contact with my siblings, they shoot me glares, just like they've been doing.

We haven't spoken since the day I told them the whole truth.

My mother sits beside Vanessa while frowning at me, feeding her some snacks even though she can do it on her own.

She's been very supportive but has barely spoken to my wife about what happened.

My father-in-law sits right next to my father and he's the only one who smiles a little, but I know it's not because he's happy to see me.

And then there's my father, who just sits there with a blank expression, like he's here for a business meeting.

To break the ice, I say, "I'm surprised to see everyone here." To my disappointment, no one responds.

Jake even pokes his cheek.

I clench my fist, realizing things are exactly as they were a few days ago.

Giving up, I approach Vanessa and sit next to her as I say, "I should have known that this was why you wanted me to come back home.

What's going on?" Before she speaks, she tightly holds my hand and smiles at me.

What is she up to? "Now that everyone's here, I can finally speak since I'm the one who personally called for everyone to meet here," she says.

"What happened a few days ago could have claimed the life of my unborn child and I understand that you're all disappointed in my husband and don't even want to talk to him.
