Chapter 149

An elderly woman stepped out, eyeing them warily.

"We're here to see the family living here," Dominick said politely, nodding slightly.

The elderly woman frowned, "Who are you, and why are you looking for Paisley and her daughter?" Realizing she knew Paisley's name, Dominick softened his tone even further. "I'm her husband, and this is our son.'

The woman's eyes narrowed sharply. "Husband? Don't give me that nonsense! Paisley doesn't have a husband! Don't try to fool me!"

Dominick felt a pang in his chest but explained calmly, "I'm her ex-husband. This child is indeed ours. I'm not lying. Do you know where Paisley is?"

'Could she still not have returned?' he wondered.

Last night, he had tried every possible way to contact Paisley but failed. When he went to the police station, she had already left.

He assumed she was still upset, so he decided to give her the night to cool down before coming to see her today. But as expected, he was met with a closed door once again.

After knocking for a long time, Dominick couldn't get Paisley to come out, but he did manage to get the old neighbor lady to answer the door.

He didn't want to admit he was Paisley's ex-husband, and he resented Paisley in his heart for telling the neighbors everything, even their personal matters like their marriage and divorce.

Upon hearing Dominick's explanation, the old lady felt disgusted. "Oh! You're the one Maria talked about, the scumbag ex-husband of Paisy?"

Dominick was shocked. "I'm not a scumbag, I—"
