Chapter 326
“Honey, h –how can you say that? I never had feelings for him like that. He saved me… I only felt guilty, so I wanted to make it up to him… ” Isabella’s words spilled out in a rush, tangled and desperate.
Dominic laughed. “The only thing left was making it up to him in bed p>
Tears streamed down Isabella’s face. Her strength drained away, leaving her weak and hollow. She collapsed to the floor, sobbing as she shook her head. “No. I only wanted to make it up to him. Honey, please forgive me p>
“ What are you fantasizing about?” Dominic rose and looked down at her with cold contempt. “Let me tell you the truth. I already died once. I died on the operating table. While you were peeling an apple for your precious little brother. Oh, and you even cut your finger. After I died, my soul drifted over and saw that scene. Guess how I felt p>
Isabella froze.
“I had severe internal bleeding. The ambulance was already there. And you gave my chance to live to your little brother. Guess how I felt then?” His voice grew sharper. “And it was just Alexander. Haha p>
Dominic went on, his tone hard and deliberate, “I didn’t almost die. I truly died once. All because you couldn’t let go of your childhood sweetheart. Do you understand p>
A mocking smile curled at his lips. “I’m glad he’s dead. If he weren’t, I wouldn’t have been given another life p>
Isabella stood in shock. ‘Honey… has already died once p>
Her body trembled, and the world tilted beneath her feet.
Dominic spoke calmly. “ I’ve said everything I needed to say. You should leave now. I’m not keeping you here p>
‘I killed my husband… ‘ Isabella slowly forced herself upright.
Dominic glanced at her and added, “Go to the room, pack your things, and leave immediately p>
She did not seem to hear him. Her mind was empty, numb. That image tore through her thoughts, crushing her heart with unbearable pain.
‘My husband died on the operating table, and his soul saw me peeling an apple for Alex. I deserve to die!‘ Isabella staggered backward, her eyes filled with a frightening madness.
Dominic frowned. “Your things are in Lily’s room p>
She ignored him and walked straight toward the back of the house.
When Dominic saw her enter the kitchen, his expression changed. He rushed after her.
In the kitchen, Isabella’s face twisted in agony. She seized a knife and slashed at her wrist without hesitation. “Honey, I’m sorry. I deserve to die. ”
“You’re insane!” Dominic shouted as he lunged forward.
He was a moment too late. A deep gash split Isabella’s pale wrist, and blood poured out. She had cut with full force. It Dominic had not stopped her in time, her tendons would have been severed.
Isabella ignored the blood soaking her arm. She looked at Dominic with pleading eyes, desperate for forgiveness. “Honey, I’m sorry. Don’t be angry with me. I’ll give you my life, all right p>
“ You’re out of your mind!” Dominic roared.
He swept her into his arms and rushed into the bathroom, wrapping her wrist tightly with a towel. Then he called an ambulance.
Isabella kept her eyes fixed on his face. “Honey, I was wrong. I know I was wrong. Please forgive ine. If you forgive me, even if 1

die now, it will be worth it p>
He had no time to answer.
After dialing 911, Dominic called Katherine. His voice was low and firm. “Don’t bring Lily home. Something happened p>
Blood stained the house. The sight was horrifying. If Lilith returned, she would be terrified.
Katherine’s voice shook. “Dominic … what happened p>
Dominic glanced at Isabella and said sharply, “Isabella cut her wrist. I called an ambulance. She’s going to the hospital. You and Lily should stay at the hotel tonight p>
“Bella!” Katherine cried. “ Is she all right p>
“She will be once we reach the hospital,” Dominic said.
After he hung up, he crouched on the floor with Isabella resting against his lap. She stared at him like a lost child. Her uninjured hand lifted and reached toward his cheek.
“Don’t touch me,” Dominic said coldly, irritation in his voice.
Bright red drops fell to the floor, one after another, spreading into a widening pool.
