The Billionaire And His Son Want Me Back (Paisley) novel Chapter 103

They didn't need too many people watching over Paul through the night. Besides Paisley, they just needed one more person from the Vanderbilt family to stay.

The Vanderbilts were still debating who should stay overnight to watch over Paul when Dominick cut straight through their discussion. "I'll stay. No need to arrange anyone else."

"Dom, you can't stay here," Marissa protested quickly. "You've got that board meeting tomorrow. You need proper rest."

Dominick shook his head. "The meeting can wait."

Marissa felt uneasy about leaving Dominick and Paisley here alone. Sure, nothing would happen, but she just didn't want them spending time together, just the two of them.

Marissa quickly came up with an idea. "Look, Dom, why don't I stay instead? Ms. Sutton and I are both women. It'll be more practical."

"No need. Go home and get some rest." Without another word, Dominick walked straight into the hospital room, effectively shutting out the rest of the Vanderbilt family.

Paisley couldn't care less what arrangements the Vanderbilts were making out there. She was exhausted, so she just dragged her backpack into Paul's VIP room. The space was massive, decked out like a luxury suite with every amenity one could think of.

Paisley dropped her bag and collapsed onto the sofa against the wall, letting her eyes fall shut. Within minutes, she was asleep.

Her body slumped against the sofa's backrest, head drooping forward. Under her messy ponytail, the elegant curve of her neck peeked through, smooth and delicate. Her long lashes fluttered slightly, giving away that her sleep wasn't exactly peaceful.

This was the scene Dominick walked in on. He stood there, watching Paisley in silence.

Paisley had only just dozed off and wasn't fully under yet. Through the haze of sleep, she vaguely sensed someone touching her. Her eyes snapped open, meeting Dominick's gaze just as he was about to help her lie down.

The room was absolutely silent except for their breathing.
