Drunk and Daring I Kissed a Tycoon

Chapter 464

Vespera didn't know whether to laugh or cry at Wanda's final comment. She

curled up against Wanda's shoulder and murmured, "Of course, I'm a wealthy heiress. I've got the best parents in the world. I'm basically the wealthiest person alive. Who could possibly be happier than me?"

Wanda's heart softened. She gently stroked Vespera's hair, emotion welling up in her chest. She didn't want to send Vespera back to the Locke family.

However, if Vespera was set on Dominic, putting her back where she rightfully belonged might open doors that were otherwise shut. Still, a flash of doubt crossed her mind. Selena had once mentioned that the Locke family was another pit of wolves wearing sheep's clothing.

Wanda didn't know what to do. She felt torn in two.

Watching Wanda sink into thought, Vespera felt even more guilty. Nonetheless, getting married to Dominic wasn't going to happen. Should she break up with him then?

What used to feel like the obvious next step now left Vespera with an aching void. Why did the idea of breaking up feel so terrifying now? She only liked Dominic, and that was it. So, why did it hurt so much?

Just then, Wanda said, "Flattering me won't help. I'm watching you now. You can either break it off, or you figure out how to make it work."

Vespera thought, "Or maybe we fail to make it work and actually have to break up in the end."

She answered, "Alright."

Wanda stayed until the afternoon before heading home. Vespera spent the rest of the day in bed, unable to stop thinking about Dominic.

She had always told herself to take things as they came, but now that everything was coming to a head, she realized she hadn't truly been as carefree as she pretended.

Dominic got off work right on time. When he returned, he didn't go to his penthouse. Instead, he went straight to the 13th floor.

Vespera opened the door for Dominic, and the moment he stepped inside, he pulled her into his arms and carried her straight to the couch. He asked, "Does it still hurt? Did you remember to use the ointment?"

His hand drifted toward her lower stomach.

Speechless, Vespera caught Dominic's hand and said, "I used it."

"Really?" Dominic looked doubtful as he added, "Let me check and see if it's any better."
