The True Heiress Returns (Tilda Jenson) novel Chapter 240

Chapter 240 Running Into Russell and Dominic

Zach shyly lowered his head, his ears turning red.

His messy hair and nerdy black–rimmed glasses couldn’t hide his good looks.

Tilda rested her cheek on one hand, watching with interest.

She didn’t join in on the conversation, but inside, she felt a sense of contentment.

Looking at the trustworthy teammates, she thought, This feeling is great.

I don’t feel like I’m fighting alone anymore.

The job of ordering food was left to Astrid.

She was the calmest one of the bunch, not like Jarrett and Theo.

After ordering, she handed the menu to Tilda. “Queen, is this okay?”

Tilda nodded. “As long as you like it, I’m fine. I eat everything, I’m not picky. Waiter!”

Not long after they finished ordering, two people walked into the BBQ place.

“Dominic, I’m telling you, I came here before with your mom. The food’s really good.

“You’ve been working way too hard. I’m glad you’re feeling better, but you’ve got to eat on time.

“Eat whatever you want today. It’s on me!”

Russell pulled Dominic along, looking at his son with worry.

In just the past few days, Dominic had gotten even thinner.

When Russell grabbed his arm, he could barely feel any flesh and could easily feel the bones.

Not to mention the dark circles under Dominic’s eyes and the exhaustion he couldn’t hide.

“Thanks, Dad.”

Dominic knew he was in bad shape.

He didn’t want to sleep because he couldn’t.

He didn’t want to eat because he had no appetite.

The only way to escape the things that haunted him, the guilt that was driving him insane.

Was to throw himself into work.

Work like crazy.

Let work take over his entire life.

Let him be busy so that he has no time for anything else!

Dominic couldn’t come up with any other way to cope besides this foolish and self–destructive one.

Still, after Russell’s repeated pleas, Dominic gave in tonight.

Even without an appetite, he followed his dad to the BBQ place.

At the very least…

Finished

Chapter 240 Running Into Russell and Dominic

He didn’t want his family to keep worrying about him.

He had made too many mistakes when it came to Tilda. No amount of regret could fix them.

Unless, like Tilda once said … only his death could make her anger fade.

Just then…

Russell and Dominic spotted Tilda sitting with her group, grilling meat.

Russell blinked, wondering if his eyes were playing tricks on him.

Why would Tilda be here?

But reality was cruel.

The one person he least wanted to run into, he ran into.

This biological daughter truly is a curse to our family!

Dominic saw her too.

Guilt, panic, and fear all flashed across his eyes as he quickly looked away.

It’s impossible, right?
