Love the Second Time Around Novel

Chapter 109 An Eight Minutes Date

Dominic looked exceptionally serious. Each word that came out of his mouth was spoken with hostility toward me.

“Camille was too feeble to run after you, but she did so in order to catch up with you. Have you any consideration for her? Are you going to take full responsibility if anything happens to her?”

Camille can’t run fast? What a joke! Then’s who’s that who challenged me for a race when we were schooling?

I mean, I can understand that you guys are tying the knot soon and you care for your wife. Why do you have to bring me into the picture and misjudge me?

“So, how does that have anything to do with me? Did I ask her to run after me? Moreover, does the law say that I must respond whenever someone calls my name? Is that your rule?”

Dominic’s face was a mess as he glared at me as if he was ready to pounce on me and devour his prey.

Pushing him away, I growled, “Let me go!”

Not only did he not relinquish his grip, but he also went on to hold on ever more firmly. “Say sorry to Camille.”

Enraged, I lifted my head. “Are you going to let me go?”

“Apologize,” he demanded, gritting his teeth.

In return, I sneered, “You want me to apologize to Camille, right? Sure. Camille, come over here.”

She hesitated before approaching me.

“Liliana, don’t fight with Dominic. I…”

Before she could finish her sentence, I raised my arm and landed a slap across her face.

Smack!

Camille froze. I could tell that she was not able to comprehend what had just happened.

The onlookers started gossiping and pointing their fingers at us three.
