Chapter 209 Can’t Keep His Hands to Himself 

Dominic dicta’t push Bella because she was adamant about not compromising. Once she was steady on her feet, he turned and left the bathroom 

sitting on the toilet, Bella could see his silhouette outside the door and felt utterly frustrated. How could she relax with him standing so close? 

After a wide, she couldn’t help but whisper, “Could you move a little farther away? 

Dotand, she heard his teasing reply, “You’re so fussy. I’ll get rid of your annoying habit sooner or later.” 

Though his words were sharp, he did move away. 

Once she finished, she didn’t call for him. She slowly made her way out step by step. 

When she opened the door, Dominic, who was smoking by the window, immediately put out his cigarette and came over to help her. His movements were natural and gentle. “Why didn’t you call me?” 

She replied weakly, “It’s not my legs that are injured. I can walk. It’s just that the wound hurts a little. I still think it’d be better if someone else cited for me. Any woman will do. You won’t get a good night’s sleep with me like this..” 

Suddenly, Dominic’s voice became heavy. “When I was injured and recovering at home, didn’t you take care of me every day? So, why is it a problem when I’m caring for you now? What exactly are you thinking, Bella? Are you so against me being close to you?” 

Detecting the anger in his tone, Bella wasn’t sure which sensitive nerve she had touched this time. She wasn’t rejecting him for any deep reason, just that it felt awkward and embarrassing. Couldn’the see that?

Seeing her silence, Dominic took it as her agreement and stopped walking lie stared at her with a dark expression. “How is it that someone you once liked suddenly became someone you can’t stand? Is it you who’s too fickle, or did I do something wrong?” 

His question took Bella aback. She didn’t dislike him, but she couldn’t love him as deeply as she once did simply because she had loved him too much before. 

Seeing her dazed expression, he gritted his teeth. “If I didn’t know exactly where that bullet hit you, I would’ve thought it scrambled your brain. Now, go to sleep!” 

She was speechless. 

The rest of the night passed in silence. 

When Bella woke up the following day, the sun was already high in the sky. She glanced at the time–it was almost 11:00 am.

She rarely slept in this late, Noticing that Dominic was still asleep beside her, she stayed still and closed her ey the strange things he said the night before. 

Why did it matter so much to him whether she still liked him? He was so cold and distant when he knew she wanted hin 

Suddenly, Dominic rolled over. His movement was gentle, but then one of his hands naturally rested on her chest.
