Chapter 22 Goodbye, Dominic
Before leaving, Bella arranged to meet Lia and handed her the resignation letter. “Please give this to the hospital director for me.”
Lia looked troubled as she rubbed her hands. “Where are you planning to go? Are you really leaving? Felix has already taken care of those things online. It’s all sorted out now…”
Bella sighed. “I really have to go this time. I’ll let you know where I end up later. Maybe I’ll come back someday since I grew up here. Please thank Felix for me. I’m not going to call him.”
Lia knew that once Bella made up her mind, it was impossible to change it, so she said, “Then let me know when you settle down.”
Bella nodded. They said their goodbyes with forced smiles, both with red–rimmed eyes.
The departing train whistled as it started its journey, and Bella chose it to slowly take in the scenery, bit by bit, saying goodbye to the past.

As the train left Joville, she silently repeated in her heart. “Goodbye, Dominic.”
“Dominic, Bella has left. The resignation letter has been delivered to the hospital. I went to your home to find that she’s taken all her things and left a bank card and a letter for you.”
When Dominic received lan’s call, his hand holding the documents stiffened. After a pause, he replied calmly, “Is there anything else? I’m busy. I’m hanging up.”
After ending the call, he set down the documents and rubbed his temples.
His assistant, Magdalena Hall, the woman he embraced at the hotel, approached with coffee. “Mr. Miller, are you alright?”
Dominic looked out at the towering skyscrapers, feeling irritable. The coffee in his mouth tasted unusually bitter. “Why is it so bitter?”
Magdalena hurriedly said, “I’ll get some sugar right away!”
Soon, lan arrived in a hurry, looking somewhat nervous. “Dominic…”
