Crushed Affections (Dominic and Bella)

Chapter 313

Chapter 313 The Thread Finally Broke

The next day, Bella received a call from a hospital where she had previously applied for a job, notifying her that she could start working there.

She numbly accepted the offer but couldn't bring herself to feel happy about it. Did this mean that Dominic had finally let her go for good? In that case, why didn't she feel the anticipated relief and freedom? The invisible thread connecting them had finally snapped.

She went to the hospital in the afternoon to complete her onboarding procedures. She was scheduled to start the next day. Since the cardiac department wasn't short-staffed, she had been assigned to the emergency department. Though the emergency department was hectic and required frequent overtime, that didn't bother her. The busier, the better. Keeping herself occupied was the only way to keep her mind from wandering.

Later that evening, Lia returned to their apartment. When Bella mentioned her new job and suggested going out to celebrate, Lia's first reaction wasn't joy but rather a concerned question. "So... Dominic has really let you go?" Bella forced a lighthearted smile. "Isn't that good? If he doesn't let me go, I won't be able to live my life."

Lia sighed. "I didn't expect you two to get together, only to break up so soon."

Bella didn't want to relive their argument on the day they broke up. Dominic had said some truly hurtful things in his anger, holding onto past grievances for years. He even dragged Dorothy into it, leaving her feeling utterly devastated. At that moment, she truly realized that their relationship was beyond repair. The deep-rooted thorns embedded in their hearts couldn't be removed. Every time they flared up, they would
