An Understated Dominance (Maria Vittori) novel Chapter 1378

Chapter 1378: Acting Like Maniac

The onlookers at the restaurant couldn’t help but join the conversation, offering their opinions and advice to Miss Isabela.

“Dear, finding a boyfriend who truly cares about you is not easy these days. This handsome young man is very sincere, and he’s even willing to give up his pride to win you back. If my boyfriend were half as good as him, I’d be waking up with a smile every day.”

“Yeah, couples argue all the time. No matter what happened, if he has genuinely realized his mistake, it’s a good thing.”

Isabela, while maintaining her stern attitude, couldn’t help but be slightly moved by the atmosphere and Owen’s heartfelt apologies. However, she pretended to remain unmoved.

“Humph! Now you realize you were wrong? Where were you all this time? Let me tell you, I will never forgive you, you scoundrel!”

As Owen continued to plead, Isabela remained firm. She was hesitant to trust his sincerity fully.

“Isabela, forgive me, please?”

“I swear, I will love you wholeheartedly from now on. If I ever betray you, may the heavens strike me with thunder!”

Owen knelt on the ground, raising his arm, extending three fingers, and making a solemn oath. His resolute and earnest demeanor struck a chord within Isabela.

However, she maintained her act of anger, saying, “Owen, you’re too late now. I gave you a chance, but you didn’t cherish it. Now, Dustin is my boyfriend.”

With that declaration, she held Dustin’s arm to emphasize her point.

Owen’s expression turned even more serious, and he said, “Dustin? Isabela, how can this guy compare to me? Look at him, he has no status, no abilities. He’s just a swindler, a small-time gigolo at best. Why should you compare me to him?”

“Shut up!” Isabela snapped. “I won’t allow you to insult Dustin!”
