Because Marissa had injured her knee, Dominick personally took her and Grayson to Vanderbilt Manor. He had originally planned to stay at the company that night, but he rarely stayed over there.
Dominick returned to the room. It had originally been his own room. After he married Paisley, it was decorated as their marital home.
Later, because Paisley was uncomfortable living there, they moved to their previous villa and lived there together for four years.
Since the divorce, Dominick rarely returned to this place. He mostly stayed at the company or in hotels.
At that moment, Dominick looked at the furnishings in the room and felt both familiar and strange. His gaze swept over the photo frame on the desk, and a hint of tenderness appeared on his frosty face.
It was a family photo of the three of them. Paisley sat in a chair, holding the newborn Grayson in her arms. Dominick stood behind them, his hand gently resting on Paisley's shoulder.
At that time, they all wore smiles. Those genuine smiles confirmed that they had once had sweet moments.
Dominick thought, 'But when did it start to change? Who changed?' Dominick did not believe he had changed. He loved Paisley, and he was very clear about that. So he could not understand why they ended up in divorce.
A knock sounded at the door, and Dominick composed himself and walked over to open it.
Marissa stood outside, holding a plate of exquisite snacks. "Dom, I saw you didn't eat much for dinner, and I was worried about your stomach, so I brought you some desserts."
Marissa held up the plate, looking up at Dominick. The burgundy slip dress she wore looked particularly alluring under the light. Before coming to find Dominick, Marissa had dressed up and even put on makeup that made her look pure.
Dominick looked at the plate and did not want to eat. However, he did not want to dismiss Marissa's kindness, so he reached out to take it. "Thank you."
Yet after Dominick took the snacks, Marissa still stood at the door.
