She Chose Him Now She Wants Me Back novel Chapter 346

Dominic let out oft laugh. He reached out, pressed Jessica’s shoulder, and eased her back onto the bed. “Sleep first. We can chat a little. I still have to go back to the hospital later.”

The bandages on his body had not even been removed yet, and he still needed to remain hospitalized.

“Dominic, your injuries!” Jessica’s expression shifted as she finally remembered that he had just escaped the fire yesterday.

Under normal circumstances, with only one night gone by, discharge would have been impossible.

Her worry was written all over her face.

Dominic felt a warmth spread through his chest.

“I took care of some things during the day,” he said. “The police has already apprehended the arsonist, so don’t worry.”

Jessica let out a soft sigh of relief, then frowned again. “That’s infuriating! I didn’t expect the police to move so fast. Which officer is that dedicated? I need to file a complaint against him!”

Dominic cleared his throat lightly. “Well, who knows?”

‘Ezra, sorry about this. If the little maniac really goes to complain later, it will just be your bad luck,‘ he thought.

Jessica did not dwell on it for long. Her expression suddenly turned shy. Her fair face flushed pink, which gave her a faint, alluring charm. She stole a glance at Dominic, then looked away. “I just had a

dream…”

“What did you dream about?” Dominic asked without thinking.

The moment the words left his mouth, regret followed. If it came from the little maniac, it was unlikely to be anything tarne.

As expected, Jessica grew even more bashful. She fidgeted and stammered, “Y–You hurt me..

‘Hurt her? In what way? Damn it‘ Dominic’s heartbeat quickened.

He looked at Jessica, then hurriedly changed the subject. By the way, didn’t you know yesterday that I was fine? Why did you still stay up all night?”

Jessica felt a twinge of disappointment. She had wanted to continue flirting, but Dominic had pulled the conversation back on track. Could she steer it back again?

She sighed softly. “After I came back last night, the moment I thought about you being trapped in the fire, I couldn’t fall asleep. Every time I closed my eyes, I had nightmares.”

Panic rose

Pania rose in her expression, and her voice grew tight. “Dominic, if you hadn’t made it out, what would I have done?”

“There’s no if,” Dominic said with calm assurance. “I’m blessed with good fortune. Of course I’d be fine.”

Even so, an indescribable emotion stirred in his chest. Jessica’s innocence and fiery intensity were difficult for him..esist.

Her small face tightened as she spoke in a serious tone. “Dominic, I think you should have bodyguards you can truly trust. Your net worth will reach tens of millions very soon. My uncle once said that fame invites trouble. At this stage, a lot of ill–intentioned eyes will be watching you. You have to protect yourself.”

She had hit the mark.

With Andy brought to justice, Dominic truly felt that there was no one around him he could rely on. No one could be sure whether the next person to approach him would be human or a ghost.

“You’re right,” Dominic said with a nod. “I’ll think about it.”

With dependable people at his side, he could hide himself more effectively.

When others played games within the rules, his combat ability remained his strongest trump card, something he should not reveal unless absolutely necessary. That made trustworthy subordinates especially important.

This was where the gap between someone who started from nothing and an old, established family truly showed. A family on the level of the Sinclairs of Eastmere State had an overwhelming pool of people at their disposal, including those willing to handle dirty work.

Seeing that he agreed with her suggestion, Jessica was overjoyed.

She stretched a hand out from beneath the blanket and held his arm. “Dominic, you have to promise me you won’t put yourself in danger again. You have no idea how miserable and terrified I felt last night. even thought that if something really happened to you, I might not have the courage to keep living
