She Left She Thrived She’s Worth Billions novel Chapter 361

Evelyn had originally intended to use the opportunity to show her resolve to Camilla.

But she never imagined that after hearing her out, Camilla would grab her by the hair and start attacking her like a madwoman.

“It’s all your fault, you little tramp! All your fault! I’m going to kill you! Just die!”

Lila was terrified as she watched her grandmother beat her mother, who was powerless to fight back.

“Don’t hit Mommy… Grandma, please don’t hit Mommy…”

Lila rushed forward to stop her, but what could a child do to stop Camilla?

“Get out of my way!”

With a crash, a water glass shattered on the floor.

The hospital room was a chaotic mix of shouting, begging, and crying, causing people in the hallway to give it a wide berth.

While all hell was breaking loose in Camilla’s room, Melanie and Dominic were at the clerk’s office, finally completing their divorce proceedings.

They each filled out the divorce application and received a confirmation slip.

All they had to do was wait for the mandatory 30-day waiting period to pass, and then they could return together to receive their divorce decree.

Melanie’s expression was calm, almost unnervingly so.

Dominic, on the other hand, looked like he’d been struck, his eyes glassing over with a raw, desperate pain.

He and Melanie were divorced…

How did he end up divorcing Melanie?

Dominic didn’t even know how he managed to walk out of the office.

All he knew was…

There was a hollow feeling in his chest.

It felt as if his soul had been ripped from his body, leaving him in a daze.

He wasn’t even aware of when Melanie had left.

She hadn’t said a word to him as she walked away.

Was this a divorce?

No…

Dominic shook his head.

This was him being unilaterally abandoned by Melanie.

In a stupor, Dominic drove to the airport.

The terminal was bustling with people coming and going.

No one noticed the man who looked like a zombie walking through the crowd.

Four years ago, right here, Dominic had gotten down on one knee and proposed to Melanie with a seven-carat diamond ring.

Back then, Melanie had been moved to tears.

Back then…

Melanie had still been deeply in love with him.

As if guided by some invisible force, Dominic found himself standing in the exact spot where he had proposed.

“Hello? Dad…”

He called Gregory.

“Are the divorce proceedings finished?”

Gregory’s voice came through the receiver, ice-cold.

“Yeah, they’re done.”

“Then get over to Nathaniel right now.”

For a moment, Dominic thought he had misheard, or perhaps Gregory had misspoken.

Why would his father tell him to go to the Royce Group?

The Royce Group was Melanie’s father’s company.

And he had just filed for divorce from Melanie.

“Dad, I’ve made up my mind!”

Without dwelling on the meaning of Gregory’s words, Dominic declared into the phone with conviction:

“I love Melanie… The person I truly love is Melanie, not Evelyn. I actually fell in love with Melanie a long time ago, I just refused to admit it. I was deliberately avoiding my feelings for her, and Evelyn was just an excuse…”

“Now, I understand. I finally see my own feelings clearly, so…”

After blurting it all out in a rush, Dominic took a deep breath and vowed resolutely:

“I’m going to win Melanie back! I’m going to get her back!”
