Dominic had planned to spend the weekend in the countryside, but Isabella’s sudden arrival made him change his mind. After dinner, he said goodbye to his grandfather and drove back with his daughter.
No matter what he said, Isabella insisted on riding in his car.
Dominic frowned. “You drove here yourself p>
Isabella simply pointed ahead. Under the fading sunset, a woman was running toward them, panting. “Ms. Sinclair p>
It was her assistant. Isabella handed her the Porsche key and said calmly, “Drive my car back p>
“Yes, Ms. Sinclair.” The assistant took the key without another word and drove away.

Isabella turned back, smiled sweetly at Dominic, and said with a hint of pride, “Now I don’t have a car p>
Lilith tugged on her father’s sleeve and whispered, “Let Mommy come with us p>
Dominic paused for two seconds, then said, “Sit in the back p>
Isabella walked over, scooped Lilith into her arms, and kissed her hard on the cheek. “That’s my sweet little angel.

During the drive, Dominic stayed quiet. Lilith, exhausted from the day, fell fast asleep in Isabella’s lap.
Isabella looked at her husband’s profile and thought, ‘I won’t let you go. I can’t lose you, honey p>
When they arrived home, Lilith was still sleeping. Dominic didn’t want to wake her, so he carried her into her
room.
When he stepped out, Isabella was already waiting. She had just showered and was wearing a light lavender, form- fitting nightgown. The soft fabric traced her curves, elegant yet dangerously alluring.
She walked over, wrapped her arms around his, and smiled seductively “Honey, let’s sleep together tonight p>
Isabella had always been beautiful, but dressed like this, she was breathtaking–radiant, tempting, and deliberate. Her intentions were clear. Before, Dominic would have reacted instantly. Now, he only felt uneasy.
He pushed her away, closed Lilith’s door, and lit a cigarette. “No need to play this game p>
Isabella’s smile froze. Her eyes dimmed. “Honey, are you still mad p>
Dominic shook his head. His decision hadn’t changed.
“I’ve already called the movers, ” he said evenly. “I’ll be moving out tomorrow p>
“ Honey, you … ” Isabella’s expression faltered. She took a few steps back, staring at him. The seriousness in his face drained the color from hers.
After a long silence, she whispered, “Can’t you … not go p>
“Impossible.” Dominic gestured toward the window with a faint smile. “We’re on the tenth floor. Unless you push me out of that window, you can’t stop me p>
Isabella’s face turned pale. “Honey! How can you say that? I’d rather jump myself than hurt you in the slightest p>

“I’ve already died once,” Dominic said quietly.

Isabella froze. In an instant, her mind flashed back to the hospital–the day his heart had stopped. She finally understood the depth of his resolve?
Her body trembled. Her breath came shallow and uneven as despair consumed her. She crouched down, buried her head between her knees, and began to sob softly, ‘I already killed my husband once… indirectly p>
Dominic smoked in silence, unmoved,
After a long while, Isabella’s sobs faded. She stood, wiped her tears, and said in a low voice, “Honey, I understand now. Tomorrow, I’ll go with you, I want to know where you live p>
Dominic started to refuse but hesitated when he saw her expression. After a moment’s silence, he nodded. Her resolve now matched the same quiet determination he had shown when asking for the divorce.
And with Lilith between them, cutting ties completely was impossible.
Isabella looked at him for a long time before finally saying, “ I’ll go to bed, then p>
