She Chose Him Now She Wants Me Back novel Chapter 13

Chapter 13

Isabella crouched and slipped off her high heels. Her full hips stretched the fabric of her dress into an inviting

curve.

Dominic thought that her coming home this early was a good sign, as if things were finally moving in the right direction.

She changed into more comfortable shoes and hurried to the kitchen. The aroma of freshly cooked food filled the air. Her eyes crinkled with happiness. “My husband is the best!”

Dominic smiled calmly. “Go watch TV. I’ll call you when everything’s ready.”

Isabella kissed him on the cheek and returned to the living room.

The next day passed routinely–work as usual, school run as usual.

That evening, Dominic stopped by the supermarket and picked up wine, steak, and other ingredients. When he came home, Isabella was already waiting.

“Happy birthday!” Dominic handed her a bouquet with a smile.

Isabella’s face lit up. She held the flowers to her nose and breathed deeply. “They smell wonderful. You’re too good to me.”

for me.”

Isabella shot her a look and laughed, feeling proud. “What, are you jealous? Too bad!”
