Crushed Affections (Dominic and Bella)

Chapter 416 Don't Touch Me

The mention of Lia being Zion's future wife had once sent Leonard into a frenzy. Now, he could say it with ease because he had come to accept the reality.

Lia didn't refuse when Leonard offered to stay. With the complicated relationship between the Crawford and Sawyer families, they would rarely get the chance to interact again. Subconsciously, she wanted to seize whatever little time they had left. Reflecting on their past

moments together, she felt that she shouldn't have been so cold. After all, Leonard hadn't done anything wrong, had he?

Meanwhile, Bella was concerned about Lia and Leonard being alone together. She found herself constantly standing by the floor-to-ceiling window, looking downstairs. Unfortunately, it was difficult to see Lia's building from her vantage point, so her actions were in vain. After watching her pace for a while, Dominic couldn't help but speak up. "Leonard's not going to hurt her. What are you worried about? Didn't she decide to leave with him this time?"

Bella shot him a glance but didn't respond. Just because Lia and Leonard were present didn't mean that morning's events were over and forgotten.
