She Chose Him Now She Wants Me Back novel Chapter 429

Chapter 429

Katherine asked nervously, “Hey… what are you doing?”

The room held only her and Dominic. Tension tightened her chest until she could hear her own heartbeat pounding in her ears.

Dominic remained calm. He sat on the sofa with a faint smile. “I didn’t see you yesterday when I came out. I heard you hurt yourself doing yoga, so I came to check on you.”

“Oh, oh… I did get hurt,” Katherine stammered. She felt too nervous to stand near him, so she retreated to the water dispenser. “I’ll get you a glass of water.”

Dominic followed her with his eyes. Even after a few days, she had not fully recovered. Her steps still carried a slight stiffness.

Katherine brought him the water. “Here. Drink.”

Dominic took the glass and drained it in one gulp. He set it aside and said bluntly, “Katherine, it was you that night.”

It was not a question. It was a statement.

Her heart lurched. Panic flashed across her face. “W–What are you talking about… What night? I don’t understand.”

“You do,” Dominic said firmly.

Katherine opened her mouth to argue, but his steady gaze pinned her in place. The words died on her lips, and she lowered her head.

Dominic sighed. “Why won’t you admit it?”

Katherine bit her lip and twisted her fingers together. She could not hide how shaken she felt.

The sight of her stirred memories in Dominic.

He remembered every warm voice over the phone, every gentle smile, the time she carefully bandaged his finger. Each memory stirred a powerful rush of emotion.

“Katherine, we both know what happened. I can take responsibility,” he said.

“No!” Katherine shouted, cutting him off. “Dominic, don’t say that. I… I don’t want you to take responsibility.”

He stared at her, stunned. His expression darkened.

He had not expected her to refuse. Did she hate him?

Katherine saw the change in his face and felt a stab of guilt. She bit her lip and spoke through a choked voice. “Dominic, you’re Bella’s husband. We… We can’t. If I’m involved with you, what would she think of

me? What would our families think? How could I face myself?”

Dominic listened, then answered evenly, “I’m already divorced from Isabella. Legally, I’m single.”

“That’s not… It doesn’t work like that.” Katherine shook her head, tears spilling down her cheeks. Sorrow filled her face. “I can’t betray Bella. Let’s treat that night as nothing more than a dream.”

Grief clouded her eyes.

All that burning emotion had to remain buried in her heart.

Dominic fell silent for a moment. After a few seconds, resolve hardened in his gaze. He would break the chains around her heart.

With that thought, he stepped forward and pulled her into his arms.

“Ah!” Katherine gasped, caught off guard.

Half an hour later…

Isabella unlocked the door with her fingerprint.

She stepped inside, fatigue weighing on her shoulders. “Kathy, is my husband here? I saw his car.”

The house answered with silence.

Isabella sat on the sofa and scrolled through her phone for a while. Then she froze and turned sharply

toward Katherine’s bedroom.

‘Wait!‘ She set her phone down at once and hurried to the door.

She turned the doorknob and pushed the bedroom door open.
