The Daring Billionaire’s Wife

Carmella walks into the visitation room, filled with hope as she believes Dominic is the person who has come to pay her a visit but as soon as her eyes land on Patrick, she twists her face in disgust and stops in her tracks.

Taking note of how neatly dressed he is and his smile filled with some mockery, she rolls her eyes and proceeds to take her seat with a confident demeanor.

"You know," she begins, scornfully looking at him.

"I thought it was someone actually worth my time who came to see me." Calmly, he says, "What makes you think I actually want to be here and just have a chat with you?" "Then spit it out." She leans back in her seat, her eyes filled with mockery.

"First of all, it's good to see you here, where you belong.

You've been running from me for such a long time, thinking you can get away with everything you've ever done to me." She narrows her eyes with a grin.

"Wait, you came here to cry like a fucking baby?" He sighs, shaking his head.

"I'm pressing charges." Her grin falters for a moment but quickly, she regains her composure and leans forward, placing her elbows on the table.

"Do you actually think you have a case against me? Oh, no! I'm screwed!" Patrick scoffs, leaning forward as well with narrowed eyes.

"As a matter of fact, I do.

It was my mistake for falling for you.

You destroyed me and got away with it for years.

Now, it's time to face the consequences." As he lists the charges and mentions that he has the evidence for it, her nonchalance begins to crumble as her eyes dart around the room.

She turns a little frantic as she attempts to reach for his hand, but he leans back and pulls away.

"If you go through with this, I'll ruin your life, just like I did before!" she warns him.

Despite the threats, he leans forward again while shaking his head.

"That's where you're wrong.

Just look at where you are and that's not even because of me.

Don't forget that what you did to Vanessa is the reason you're here in the first place and the Richards won't go easy on you.

Did you even see me that day after you attacked her? You made my blood boil and I feared the worst.

I'm glad she survived.

I know I messed up, so I'm happy for her now that she's moved on." "Why the fuck do people gravitate towards that bitch?" She grits her teeth.

"Who wouldn't?" He smiles, deeply thinking about Vanessa, then turning serious again.
