She Chose Him Now She Wants Me Back novel Chapter 257

“Stop playing. Go do your homework,” Isabella said, glaring at Lilith. “It’s been more than a month since summer break started, and you’ve only finished a few pages. Do you have any sense of responsibility?”

The girl’s face soured at once. She cautiously raised a finger. “Then… can I just do one page?”

Isabella sneered, “At least ten pages.”

Lilith’s expression turned completely dejected. She felt unwilling, but under her mother’s threatening stare, she had no choice

but to return to her room and do her homework.

Isabella’s eyes lit up with excitement. “Kathy! I feel like Dominic doesn’t dislike me as much anymore!”

Katherine paused, then spoke hesitantly. “R… Really?”

“Yes!” Isabella said brightly. “I feel like we’ll remarry soon!”

“Hehe…” A small smile tugged at the corner of Katherine’s lips.

“Hey, aren’t you happy? Your brother–in–law is coming back soon, and our family will be together again!” Isabella said, her

smile radiant.

Katherine’s eyes flickered with a strange emotion. After hearing the news, she did not feel happy at all. What was wrong with her?

Upon noticing Katherine’s reaction, Isabella’s smile slowly faded. She studied her face and frowned. “Kathy, you seem…

troubled.”

Katherine’s heart skipped. She answered quickly, “I–I’m not troubled at all.”

“That’s not true. You definitely are,” Isabella said with certainty.

Katherine fell silent for a moment, then spoke suddenly. “I think you’re celebrating too early. Alexander may be dead, but that

other matter still hasn’t passed.”

Isabella’s expression changed at once. Anxiety filled her face. “You’re right…”

She thought for a moment, then seemed to make up her mind. “Kathy, do you think I should find a chance to confess to Dom? He should forgive me, right?”

Katherine looked surprised. “You want to confess?”

“Yes.” Isabella nodded, though hesitation showed on her face.

Katherine considered it for a few seconds. “You’ve only just started to mend things with him. If you contess, your relationship may freeze again. You may even end up like Jessica and get kicked out.”

Isabella’s eyes widened. She murmured, “It… won’t happen, right?”

Katherine cleared her throat. “Anyway, it’s your decision. I’m going back to my room.”

With that, she left the dining room.

Isabella stayed where she was. The memory of Jessica’s fate from the night before sent a shiver through her, and she shook ber head repeatedly. Her sister was right.

“No, no… I won’t say anything. Dom and I only ended up like this because of Alex. He’s already dead, and our relationship will heal on its own. There’s no need to make things worse because of him,” she muttered.

Meanwhile, in her room, Katherine’s thoughts were in complete turmoil. In the past, she would have advised Isabella to confess. Today, though, she had felt an inexplicable urge to stop her.

After a long time, she gave herself a reason. The family had finally found some harmony. If Isabella confessed, Dominic and Isabella would likely start fighting again.

Elsewhere, Dominic drove his old car back to the office.

After arriving, he called Andy in. “Andy, call Miss Wright for me.”
