She Left She Thrived She’s Worth Billions novel Chapter 281

She was breathtaking—a rare blend of sharp intellect and raw, striking beauty that set her apart from any woman he’d ever known.

A woman with intelligence, talent, and top-tier beauty... it was hard for him not to be captivated.

But Melanie was married. She had a husband.

Every time he remembered that, Bryant had to suppress the impractical thoughts in his heart.

"You're just a little kid. What do you know about liking someone?"

Bryant gently patted Elina's cheek.

"I do know! Daddy definitely likes Ms. Melanie! Every time you look at her, your whole face lights up."

Called out by Elina, Bryant lowered his head in embarrassment.

"Daddy, can you please try really hard to make Ms. Melanie my new mommy?"

Northwell Haven Medical Center.

The moment Dominic saw Preston with Melanie, his expression soured.

"Why are you here?"

Dominic faced Preston, his tone harsh, making no secret of his disgust and hostility.

"You're just an escort. Don’t you know your place? You don’t belong here. Get lost."

Dominic's words were incredibly rude. Melanie, worried Preston would be offended, was about to explain when Preston spoke slowly and deliberately.

"It's precisely because I'm an escort that I'm here. Obviously, the client is paying well."

"You!"

Dominic looked from Preston to Melanie, his face turning pale with anger.

Melanie couldn't help but facepalm.
