I Left My CEO Husband. His Empire Fell novel Chapter 3

Chapter 3

Aliyah was stunned for a few seconds and then met Dorothy’s eyes. “That’s not what you wanted when you made the deal with me. You regret it now?”

Yes, she regretted it.

Dorothy looked down, hiding the sadness in her eyes. “Sorry that I’ve let you down.”

Aliyah closed her eyes and sighed deeply, “Fine. If that’s what you want, then that’s what you have. You’ve had your chance, but you still can’t win Dwayne’s heart. The Lambert family now owes you nothing.”

Dorothy instinctively looked at Dwayne.

She had accepted it because it was close to the hospital.

Little did she know that he’d arrange for Sonia and Brenden to live here, too.
