She Left She Thrived She’s Worth Billions novel Chapter 268

Dominic's question was thick with jealousy.

If this had been the old Melanie, she would have started imagining how much he loved her.

Now, however, Melanie just found it amusing.

"I'm not telling you."

Melanie deliberately kept him guessing.

Partly because she didn't want to drag Preston into it.

And partly because she enjoyed seeing the dark look on Evelyn's face when Dominic got jealous.

"Melanie, don't you go too far! Are you really going to cheat on Dominic right in front of him?"

In the face of Evelyn's accusation, Melanie waved a dismissive hand.

"Is accepting a gift from a man considered cheating? In that case, Evelyn, you must have cheated on Everett Kingsley quite a bit while he was still alive. After all, Dominic gave you plenty of gifts back then."

"You!"

Evelyn glared at Melanie, but she had no comeback.

Dominic also looked embarrassed.

"Alright, alright, let's drop it… Melanie, you like this dress, right?"

"I do!"

Melanie didn't actually like it.

But she liked the idea of Evelyn not getting her way even more.

"Good. Then I'll buy this dress for you."

As soon as the words left Dominic's mouth, Evelyn immediately protested.

"Dominic! I saw that dress first!"

"Don't argue with Melanie!"

Dominic snapped at Evelyn irritably.

Evelyn was stunned.

What was wrong with Dominic? Was he possessed? Why was he being so harsh with her and so obedient to Melanie?

"I don't care! I'm getting that dress!"

Evelyn continued to argue, but Dominic had already bought the last dress.

"Melanie, this is for you."

Dominic handed the packaged dress to Melanie.

"This is from *me*."

Dominic emphasized the word "me."

It was obvious he had been provoked by the story of Preston buying her the purple suit and was determined to give her this dress no matter what.

"You scared me."

Daphne gave a wry smile.

"I wasn't trying to scare you, I'm serious! The way Dominic was acting tonight, it didn't seem like he's planning to divorce you and marry his adoptive sister… Are you sure that girl, Lila, is really his and Evelyn's daughter?"

Listening to Daphne's questions, Melanie slowly stirred her rainbow sundae with a delicate steel spoon.

"It's precisely because he won't divorce me that I have to take extreme measures. As for Lila…"

Daphne noticed a subtle shift in Melanie's eyes, as if she was fully prepared for what was to come.

Just then, her phone pinged with a notification. It was a message from Melanie.

It was a picture.

Daphne opened the image, and her eyes widened at the six large words clearly displayed.

"Damn, you're really prepared. That trashy couple won't know what hit them. They're going to be ruined!"

Melanie smiled faintly.

"And here I thought you wanted me to forgive Dominic!"

"No way!"

Daphne shook her head vigorously.

"I was just worried you might be wavering… I mean, you two were childhood sweethearts, and the way Dominic got so jealous in the mall… it didn't seem like an act…"
