Chapter 154 Just This Once

Suddenly, Dominic grabbed Bella and pulled her into the room. "If you don't wantto leave, just say it. Stop

acting all sad like we'll never see each other again."

As soon as he finished speaking, he kissed her as if it were the most natural thing in the world. It was a kiss that

ceffortlessly, like something a couple might do without a second thought.

This time, Bella didn't resist. She thought to herself, "Just this once, I'll let myself give in..."

On the bed, her hands were pinned above her head. He liked it that way.

When she realized what was about to happen, her face flushed deep red. Her lips were soft and glistening, while

the blush on her cheeks spread to the tips of her ears.

When she buried her face in her arm, her delicate features were outlined in the soft glow of the room, as if

captured perfectly in a painted portrait.

The lights above felt too bright, leaving her no place to hide her embarrassment. Maybe it was the look in her

eyes that mesmerized him, but Dominic lowered his head and playfully nipped at her chin, making her heart

race. When he pressed his body down against hers, Bella moaned. At that moment, she couldn't help but feel a

deep affection. It welled up inside her when she looked into his affectionate gaze.

Outside, the storm raged on, drowning out the moaning inside the room. It was impossible to tell how long they

had sex before Bella finally fell asleep, utterly exhausted,

The next morning, sunlight streamed through the windows. The storm from last night was long gone, leaving

behind a beautiful day with a gentle breeze.

Dominic was already gone by the tBella woke up. As she got dressed, she caught sight of the trash can,

where a few used condoms had been tossed. Her cheeks flushed-red, but at least this time, she wouldn't need to

take any pills. She had surgery scheduled for the afternoon, but Bella handed it off to lan. She wanted to get

hearly, hoping she might get to see Dominic before he left. However, by the tshe made it back, there

was no sign of him. Sylvia told her that Dominic had left in the morning and wouldn't be coming back today. Bella

nodded, looking at the spot on the couch where he always sat.

Everything in the house was the sas always, except for one thing he wasn't there

anymore.

Chapter 154 Just This Crof

Three years ago, when he left, it hadn't felt this empty inside.

Not wanting to stay at home, Bella decided to head over to Lia's studio.

Lia was one who always bounced back quickly. She looked perfectly fine, as if nothing major had happened.

Sitting in a chair, Bella stared at her and asked softly, "Can | stay at your place for a while?"

Lia gave her a sideways glance. "What for? Are you avoiding Dominic again? My place is practically your hideout

by now.

Bella looked down. "It's not that. He's not home. He won't be hfor a while."

What she was really avoiding was the loneliness in her heart.

Lia looked puzzled. "If he's not home, why are you hiding? You're such a weirdo."

Then, as if realizing something, Lia immediately fell silent. These days, any mention of the word "weirdo" made

her think of Leonard, and it frustrated her to no end.

Bella didn't give up. She said while acting cute, "Con, letstay with you. I'm not going to bother you. I'm

a woman, you know."

Lia sighed. "You can have the keys, but my mom found out about my episode yesterday, so she's making me

move back hfor a while.

"I've gotten used to living alone, so | won't be gone for long. If you stay at my place, you'll be on your own, so it

won't be any different from being at your house."

With that, Bella gave up on the idea. She had really wanted to be around Lia, but if Lia wasn't going to be at her

apartment, it was the sas if Bella were to stay in Miller Manor.

At around 7:00 pm, it started raining again. Lately, it seemed to rain every night without any sign of stopping.

The rain reminded Bella of how Dominic had cto pick her up last night. It made her realize just how

comforting it was to have someone to rely on in a moment of need. If that person happened to be someone
