Crushed Affections (Dominic and Bella) -
Chapter 340 You Can Rely on Me
After hearing that Bella was in the police station, Dominic immediately promised that he would be there as soon as possible before hanging up.
Perhaps it was due to the fact that Miller Corporation was slightly farther away from the police station, but it took Dominic about half an hour to arrive.
The second he entered the police station, the lobby that was filled with people from the Klein family immediately fell silent. Everyone was shocked by his overwhelming presence.
He looked at them coldly and asked, "Which one of you touched my woman?"
Justin was immediately dumbfounded. His stupid daughter, Yelena, had just angered the Sawyer family not too long ago, causing their family to end up in hot waters. Now, Dominic was here himself. Were his daughters trying to finish him off? No one dared to speak, and Dominic did not waste any time speaking nonsense with them as he went to understand the situation from a police officer.
His expression immediately turned cold when he saw Bella. Bella's hair was a mess due to the scuffle with Yelena, and one side of her cheeks was swollen. There was even a streak of dry blood at the corner of her lips.
He asked coldly, "Was Yelena the one who did this?"
Bella nodded. "I'm insisting on filing a report and taking things to court. I won't accept a settlement. I called you here to take me home. There's too many of them outside..."
Dominic slowly took a deep breath before saying, "I won't let things go just like that!"
Her heart trembled as she asked, "What do you plan to do?"
He turned around to walk out. "You don't have to worry about that. I'll just take you home first, and I'll deal with everything later."
Bella hurriedly ran after him, afraid that the people from the Klein family would catch her if she was even a second slower. She didn't have any power, and if it weren't for Dominic, she would probably end up as a pile of bones.
She knew that if the Klein family was as powerful as before, her actions would be no different than seeking death.
Seeing the two of them come out, Justin quickly went forward and smiled apologetically. "Mr. Miller, this is all just a big misunderstanding. Ms. Jones, I would like to apologize to you on behalf of my daughter. You can tell me what you'd like as compensation."
Bella didn't even have a chance to speak when Dominic said, "There won't be any more discussions. The Sawyer family was kind enough to spare your family, but I'm different. Have you forgotten who I
Qu
Justin nearly fainted, while Dominic escorted Bella to his car without another word.
Once she was separated from that noisy and tense atmosphere, Bella immediately relaxed. "Thank you for your help."
Dominic glared at her and exclaimed, "Are you an idiot? Why didn't you call me sooner when they were all bullying you?"
Bella felt aggrieved as Yelena was the one who had hit her out of the blue. She hadn't even done a thing...
He suddenly twisted his body to the
side to embrace her in his arms.
"Even if you're no longer with the Miller family, you can still rely on me. You got it? I haven't said that I'm willing to end things, so don't even think about getting rid of me."
Bella didn't feel like crying when Yelena had beaten her, but now, she couldn't control the tears pooling in her eyes She choked on her sobs and said, "Why are you treating me so well? You'll make me think that you have feelings for me too..."
He held her tighter as he said, "You can think of it that way. Let's go. I'll bring you home."
With that said, he sat up straight and started driving.
Bella looked at him in astonishment as she recalled his words. Back then, she had always been afraid of misunderstanding his intentions, but now, she couldn't stop herself from dreaming. What did he mean by asking her to think of it in that way? Was that something people could just "think" of on a whim?
Once they arrived at her apartment, she stared at her scalp in the mirror for a while, relieved Yelena hadn't managed to yank out a bald patch on her head.
The swelling on her face could be dealt with by putting some ice on it, but losing her hair would be catastrophic.
Dominic had been standing by the window as he made some calls. He seemed to be furious, but she knew she was angry because of what she had gone through. The Klein family was in for a rough time now.
