She Chose Him Now She Wants Me Back novel Chapter 553

After stepping outside, Dominic walked to the window at the end of the corridor and lit a cigarette.

The weather had turned slightly cold, yet the wind against him barely registered.

“I don’t seem to be afraid of the cold anymore…” Dominic muttered, increasingly aware that he no longer felt like a normal

person.

When he finished the cigarette, he turned off airplane mode on his phone.

At once, WhatsApp notifications began ringing nonstop.

Dominic opened the app and saw that most of the messages were from Isabella. A smaller number came from Oliver, along with that little pervert, Autumn, Jewel, and a few others.

He replied briefly to a few of the women before opening Isabella’s messages.

Isabella: [Honey, did you go ruin my sister’s blind date? (shocked)]

Isabella: [Honey, why can’t I reach your phone!]

Isabella: [Honey, reply to me already. If she wants to go on a blind date, then let her go. Why did you stop it…]

There were more than a dozen messages.

Before Dominic had time to reply, Isabella’s call came through.

A headache rose almost instantly. He did not need to guess. This was definitely Oliver’s doing.

After hesitating for a few seconds, he answered.

Isabella’s delighted voice came through the phone. “Honey, you finally picked up!”

Dominic replied, his tone indifferent, “Why are you calling?”

“Your phone wasn’t reachable, so I was worried about you!” Isabella sounded aggrieved.

“I came out to deal with something,” Dominic said. “You don’t need to worry about me.”

She fell silent for a few seconds before asking, “Hey, I heard you ruined my sister’s blind date today. What exactly happened?”

“Nothing much,” Dominic replied calmly. “I just felt like going, so I went.”

“Honey, you-”

“Anything else? If not, I’m hanging up,” Dominic cut in.

“Wait!” Isabella said quickly. “Honey, do you hate me that much?”

This time, Dominic fell silent.

Deep down, he could not forgive her. But saying he hated her that much did not feel entirely right. On top of that, there was what had happened the night before last, purely by coincidence.

After a brief pause, his tone softened. “You’re Lily’s mother, after all. There’s no need to talk about hate,”

Upon hearing that, Isabella’s mood clearly lifted.

“Honey, can you not get too close to my sister? She’s Lily’s aunt, and… this is something that’s destined to go nowhere.”

“I know what I’m doing,” Dominic said.

At that moment, he saw Elias and Sophia open the door and step out together.

“I still have something to do,” he added. “That’s it for now.”

He ended the call.

On the other end, Isabella held her phone and stood there in a daze for a long moment.
