Crushed Affections (Dominic and Bella) novel Chapter 195

Chapter 195 A Side She Has Never Seen Before 

Over the weekend, Bella stayed at home. Lia kept her company through voice calls.

His expression was completely impassive as if he was just asking a normal question and not about how a man died. 

Bella froze as her mind raced. If Dominic had losown from the start that an assassin was after him, then that man’s death was probably not an accident. What kind of fatal accident would befall a trained assassin? It couldn’t be an accident! 

Before she could gather her courage and ask him, Dominic put down his cutlery and went out with Pudding 

Bella sat at the table, stunned. It took her some time to regain her wits. 

When he retumed with injuries back then, she had thought of him as the victim. He lilled only in self–defense. He nearly died, so it Now, though, it was different. She had known lum for 20 years, but it seemed like he had another side of him that she’d never seen before.
