Chapter 75 Horribly Ugly
Bella hoped Dominic wouldn’t notice her and didn’t want him to know about Simon. Just as she reached the entrance, he suddenly asked, “Where are you going?”
She tried to sound casual as she said, “I’m going out with Lia, I’ll be back soon.”
Dominic said nothing more, and she took his silence as agreement. She drove to the private dining room where she had arranged to meet Simon.
When Bella arrived, she couldn’t help but feel a bit amused. Simon could easily choose an expensive private restaurant or even a more upscale one for a meal, while she and her mother had been left to struggle alone for five years.
She often wondered if her mother’s life would have been different if she hadn’t loved Simon enough to have her. The most infuriating thing about Simon was that, even after abandoning them, he still gave her mother false hope by promising to return.
In her opinion, if a person didn’t love someone anymore, they simply didn’t. If they couldn’t take responsibility, they just couldn’t. Why ruin someone’s life with lies? After they sat down, Simon poured her a cup of tea. “This place doesn’t have a menu. The owner just brings out whatever they’ve got. I’ve been here a few times, and it’s pretty good. I hope you like it.”
Bella remained cold. “Just say what you need to say. I don’t have much time to chat.”
Simon was accustomed to her distance and wasn’t embarrassed. However, the smile on his face faded slightly. “I’ve never mentioned this before, but you have a younger sister. She’s five years younger than you.”
