The Daring Billionaire’s Wife novel (Vanessa and Dominic) novel Chapter 3

Chapter 3 

Dominic’s POV 

I’m finally married, just like my father wanted. It was the only way I’d be able to take over the company. 

How unfair. As the first born son, it’s my right to take over. I didn’t want 

get married to Vanessa, but I had no choice. 

I still wish it didn’t have to be this way because this sucks. I should be taking pictures with Carmella right now as my new wife. I know it hurts her to see me hold Vanessa even if it’s just for the press but she understands me. I plan on making it up to her. 

Kissing Vanessa doesn’t even feel right, which is why I didn’t open up when we were pronounced husband and wife… 

To my surprise, she didn’t part her lips either. How could she not want to kiss me? 

I’ll have to get back at her for this. It’s barely been an hour since the marriage blessing and she’s already acting all high and mighty, just because she’s no longer Vanessa Collins. 

To make things worse, my family loves her, everyone does, including my annoying younger brother. How could they show her this much love? I admit she’s beautiful, but she’s nothing special. 

All that love and affection should be going to Carmella, but no matter what, that’ll never happen. That’s why I’ve kept my relationship with her a secret ever since they rejected her a year ago. 

They all hate her and claim it’s because of her true evil nature but I refuse to believe that. The only reason they hate her according to me is because she’s a divorced woman. She suffered so much and even when I tell them that, they don’t care. 

Fine. I gave them their daughter–in–law and now I can have my company. 

As upsetting as this day has been so far, the only thing that’s made me happy is the good news from the children’s hospital. One of the little girls in critical condition had a successful operation and will make a full recovery. 

The moment I spor Vanessa and Carmella hugging it out, Frank my best friend, throws his arm over my shoulder. 

“Watching your wife and girlfriend embrace each other?” he mockingly says to me. 

“Shot before someone 

up 

hears you.” I 

Cautiously look around, hoping no one is close enough. 

Frank is the only one who knows the truth and he’s trustworthy 

Even after Vanessa and Carmella break the hug, they’re still smiling but I know Carmella was putting Vanessa in her place. She’s just my wife on paper. 

When it’s time to leave the church, I get in the drives away. 

e same car with Vadessa and I see my babe standing there alone as the ear 

She’s waving at me just like everyone else. I wish I could make Vanessa ride in a different car so Carmella could be next to me, but it’s not possible for now. 

It puts me at ease that even if my family doesn’t like Carmella, which was clearly obvious when taking the wedding pictures, shell comfortably make it to the next venue. I bought her a brand new car she could add to her already existing collection. 

As I continue thinking about her, I keep staring outside the window. I don’t even want to look at Vanessa or talk to her, but I have to when I remember something 

“What did you and Carmella talk about when hugging each other?”

I scoff as I look at her Compared to the first time we spoke one on one in that suite, her boldness has reached new heights. But I won’t tolerate this amade of hers any longer

She doesn’t even look at me as she gently taps her face. That still doesn’t stop me from warning her. 

I’m gonna have to deal with you and make sure you know your place.” 

“No need. I already know my place.” 

I give up. I won’t get into this with her. She acting all high and mighty because she knows I need her, too. 

My phone beeps and that makes me feel better when I read the message and it’s from Carmella. She says she’s envious that I be dancing with Vinna very soon but other than that, I’ll be dancing with her for a long time.

That’s my cue to let go as well and everyone gives a round of applause.
