Crushed Affections (Dominic and Bella)

Chapter 430 Are You Happy

Felix helped Bella straighten up, then released his grip. He scolded, "You're pregnant, yet you're still rushing around like that. Be more careful when you walk." Felix looked like an angel in his doctor's coat-warm and comforting.

Bella couldn't help but smile at him. "Got it, Dr. Quinn. I'm fine. You can go back to work."

Felix was about to ask something else, but he thought better of it when he saw so lively and well. The main reason was his inability to stand Dominic's stifling gaze. He nodded, waved goodbye to Bella, and walked away. Dominic's icy demeanor hadn't softened back in the car, but he didn't lash out.
