Seeing Ethan’s silence, Dominic’s eyes turned colder. “What? You think there’s something going on between them too?”

“Do you want the truth, Dominic?” Ethan asked, leaning forward.

Dominic nodded sharply. “Tell me.”

Ethan’s voice dropped. “The problem is, you don’t treat Aurelia well.”

Dominic fell silent.

The air in the room turned ice-cold, thick enough to cut with a knife.

Dominic’s expression darkened, his jaw tightening into a menacing line. “I don’t… treat her well?”

Hearing someone say that out loud made rage burn in his chest.

How the hell was he not good to her? Over the years, he’d bought her every nice thing she could want. And whenever he traveled for business, he always brought her back a souvenir.

Wait. The things he’d bought her…

realization sinking in.

Ethan shook his head. “Women don’t just want fancy gifts. They want genuine care, not just going through the motions.”

“You think I was just going through the motions with her?” Dominic pressed, his voice sharp with anger.

Ethan waved a hand quickly, backpedaling. “Whoa, I didn’t say that.”

Seeing Dominic’s expression grow more dangerous by the second, Ethan didn’t dare push the insincerity angle.

He looked down at his hands, his tone softening. “But Aurelia’s accepting Grant’s care now, isn’t she?”

He’d heard the details. Grant had stationed his own bodyguards outside Aurelia’s hospital room, 24/7.

Ethan thought the move was out of line, honestly. Aurelia was still married to Dominic, for God’s sake.

But Grant clearly didn’t care about that technicality. And that was the biggest threat to Dominic right now.

Dominic’s face turned so dark that it looked like a storm was

brewing.

Ethan kept going, hitting him where it hurt most. “I heard from Lucas what went down at Oakridge Estate. Why weren’t you the one who took Aurelia to the hospital?”

That question landed like a punch to the gut.

Dominic was right there in New York. But he left Aurelia because of Lauren. Meanwhile, Grant dropped everything, flew across the country, and rescued her from Marilyn’s clutches.

After Ethan left, Dominic couldn’t sit still.

He ignored Jason’s calls, bailed on the rest of his meetings, and drove straight to the hospital.

Aurelia was packing up, getting ready to be discharged.

When Dominic arrived, he saw his men getting blocked by Grant’s bodyguards.

Fury exploded in him. He stormed over and punched two of the guards square in the jaw.

Hearing the commotion outside, Aurelia glanced at Gareth.

He nodded immediately. “It’s Mr. Hawthorne.”

Aurelia’s expression turned grim, her eyes sharp with disdain

She told Gareth, “Let him in.”

She was heading back to Starlight Hill, and she knew she’d probably be confined to the house for the next week.

She just got off the phone with Sebastian. His voice had been warm and indulgent, but it carried a clear warning—if she dared to go out alone again, he’d shut down her company and all her studios.

Aurelia couldn’t let that happen. Those ventures were her life’s work; they were her pride and joy.

Gareth nodded. “Yes, Ms. Smith.”

Dominic had been seething the entire drive over, especially after his conversation with Ethan.

That line, “Aurelia’s accepting Grant’s care now”, kept replaying in his head, grating on his nerves like sandpaper.

It wasn’t just annoying. It was downright heartbreaking.

Dominic pushed the door open and stormed into the room.

Aurelia had changed into her own clothes, and the hospital gown was tossed aside on the bed.

discharged?”

Aurelia looked at him coolly, her tone flat. “It’s none of your business.”

Dominic let out a bitter sneer. “Then whose business is it? Grant’s? Aurelia, you’re really something else. I’m still your husband, and now I need permission from his goons just to see you?”

The memory of those bodyguards blocking his path, refusing to let him in until Gareth gave the okay, made his blood boil.

He couldn’t believe how quickly things had fallen apart between them.

Aurelia fixed him with an icy stare, her voice cutting through the tension like a blade. “For the past few months, if I wanted to spend a single day with you, my husband, didn’t I have to check Lauren’s mood first?”

Dominic pressed his lips together, unable to argue.

Aurelia’s lips twisted into a cold, mocking smile. “What’s wrong, Dominic? Now that the tables are turned, you can’t handle it?”
