Crushed Affections (Dominic and Bella)
Chapter 310

Chapter 310 I'll No Longer Listen to You

lan rubbed his nose. "Is that so? If you don't want to be led around, let her be free, and you

should set yourself free too."

Dominic's expression darkened. "Pudding, bite him."

Pudding bared her teeth at lan in a mock threat. Ian pretended to be scared. "Alright, I'm leaving. I'm off to chase some women. I can't waste a trip here.

The women here were all top-notch-fair-skinned and beautiful with long legs. "Dominic, you should go out and take a stroll too. Who knows? You might replace someone you like."

Joville had been blanketed in snow for several days, and it was overcast even when it was approaching New Year's.

Lia's studio closed for the holidays, and she went home to celebrate with her parents. This time, her dad had finally had a break. Thus, Bella was left alone in the apartment.

During the day, Bella binge-watched TV shows and caught up on the latest entertainment gossip, but as boredom set in, she had nowhere to spend her time.

At night, she saw the streetlights adorned with lights celebrating the new year. She grabbed a black umbrella, put on a long black coat, and stepped outside. Even alone, she wanted to enjoy a meal to make herself feel less pitiful.

Near her apartment was a bustling food street, but the crowd was too dense for her to squeeze into that lively world. Not wanting to deal with the noise, she chose a high-end Zhanese restaurant instead, where dining alone wouldn't be overly expensive. On special days like this, she didn't want to deny herself.

She picked a corner table by the window and ordered two of her favorite dishes. As she ate, she enjoyed the snow-filled night view, replaceing a moment of peace.

Suddenly, a flashy car sped past on the road. She Instinctively followed it with her gaze, watching as it quickly disappeared.

That car was Dominic's, the same model as hers. They were matching cars for a couple. The deliberate color made it seem unlikely to be a coincidence. It dawned on her that even after their breakup, it was still possible for them to cross paths. Joville, while large, was not as vast

as the ocean.

She let out a self-deprecating laugh, wondering how he had dealt with the car she left behind.

She didn't look outside again, so she was unaware that Dominic had reversed the car.

He watched her inside his car for a while and then texted her, "You don't seem to be doing so well after leaving me."

The moment she saw the message, she instinctively looked up and glanced outside. Her breath caught when she saw his car. Forcing herself to look away, she set down her phone and warned herself not to get involved. She feared that even a hint of lingering attachment could unleash an emotional tsunami.

Dominic saw her actions clearly. Dissatisfied, he called her directly.

Bella answered reluctantly, "What do you want?

Perhaps it had been too long since she heard his voice, but his words stirred a pang of bitterness in her heart.

"Come outside."

His simple command triggered her rebellious spirit. "No! I won't listen to you again. We've broken up.

He insisted, "Come outside, or I'll come in."

She looked down at her untouched food on the table, unwilling to leave. "Are you out of your mind?"

He didn't reply, but she could hear him opening his car door and saw him step out through the glass window.

Coincidentally, he wore a black suit with a matching coat, mirroring her outfit and creating an inexplicable sense of harmony.

Feeling anxious, Bella hurried to pay her bill and rushed to the entrance.

When she stepped out, Dominic halted in his tracks. She stood on the steps, not taking another step forward. The elevation gave her a slight advantage, making her height barely even with

his.

White snowflakes fell on his dark clothing, strikingly contrasting it as it was layered upon him. They faced each other through the cold air, and his eyes held a depth like a vast ocean- mysterious and dangerous.
