Unloved Unwanted Unstoppable (Seraphina and Dominic) novel Chapter 341

The car left the airport, driving along the winding mountain road toward the border.

Seraphina clutched her phone, the atmosphere inside the vehicle thick with tension.

She glared at Dominic. "If you aren't going to use your phone, you might as well donate it."

Dominic frowned.

"Every time I need to reach you, someone else answers," she continued. "What, are you physically incapable of picking it up now?"

His expression darkened. "Do you really have to speak to me like that? I've been dealing with an emergency..."

"What emergency?" she interrupted. "One so severe you can't even hold a phone?"

Her gaze turned icy. "I only ever contact you about our divorce or our daughter. Other than that, I have absolutely nothing to say to you."

"But whenever it's a real emergency, you're unreachable. And the woman beside you just plays games instead of passing on the message."

Cynthia's face immediately drained of color.

"I didn't."

Seraphina scoffed. "You didn't? Perfect. Since we're all here, why don't we compare notes on exactly what you said?"

Cynthia bit her lip, her voice dropping to a whisper. "I..."

She lowered her head, unable to force another word out.

Looking at her, Dominic realized exactly what had happened.

Cynthia had been lying again.

Yet seeing her shrink back into her seat looking so wronged, his heart softened for a fleeting second.

He looked at Seraphina, his tone hardening. "You abandoned Lily yourself, and now you're coming after us? What is your problem?"

Seraphina stared at him.

"I abandoned her?"

She let out a dry laugh and turned to Cynthia. "Is that what she told you?"

Cynthia's shoulders shrank. "I thought... I thought that's what you meant..."

"When did I ever say a single word about not wanting my daughter?"

Seraphina glared at her with predatory intensity.

Cynthia opened her mouth but had no retort.
