Love the Second Time Around Novel

Chapter 71 Five Hundred Thousand

From what I could see, Dominic’s profession as a fashion designer was simply irresistible for most women. As long as he was willing, he could effortlessly get any woman to fall head over heels for him.

After all, there’s still Camille by his side. In other words, he’s spoiled for choice when it comes to women. Why is he insisting on having me as his friend with benefits?

“Yeah, I love it. I just can’t resist your gorgeous and sexy body.” I was dumbfounded at his frankness.

After a moment of silence, I asked bluntly, “What about Camille? Both of you are getting married soon, aren’t you? You are not keen on her?”

“You’re different from her. There’s nothing to compare.”

I was momentarily stunned before realizing what he meant.

To him, Camille was the ideal candidate as his future wife. On the other hand, I was only a woman who could satisfy him in bed. Nevertheless, I was clueless about what was playing on Dominic’s mind.

If he really loves Camille, why is he still thinking of maintaining a friends-with-benefits relationship with me? If Camille finds out about it, she will surely cry her heart out!

Even so, when Dominic asked if I had come to a decision, I spontaneously requested him to give me a little time to think it through. I could not explain why I did not reject him on the spot.

Ah! What’s the matter with me? What more is there to consider? I must have lost my mind!

After we exited the restaurant, Dominic straight away sent me back to the hotel I was staying in with my parents. As such, I could only plan to buy the contraceptive pills after we checked out from the hotel later. Fortunately, the contraceptive pills were effective for up to seventy-two hours, so I was not really worried about that.

To my surprise, my parents were not the slightest bit suspicious of me for not going back the night before. They were even grateful to Dominic for keeping an eye on me and thanked him sincerely. Only Louis kept giving me meaningful looks.
