Chapter 386 Do You Dare The inference was that Bella was being ungrateful.
Bella glanced over the pages of her book as she sat on the couch. "Yes, he's great, but I'm not good enough for him." "No, that's not what I meant. I'm just curious why you don't want to marry him," Cara quickly explained.
Bella asked in return, "Have you ever heard him mention the word 'marriage'? Aside from the contract that bindsto stay, is there any sign that he wantsas his wife?" Cara was dumbfounded for a tbefore hesitantly saying, "But he hasn't married anyone else, has he? You're not his lover. You have a child together, so why can't you just be together?"

Sean measured Dominic up and down with a hint of arrogance and hostility in his eyes.
He was taken aback when Victor announced that Sean was his son. He was surprised to learn that Victor's son was the sneighbor who appeared at Bella's house. If he hadn't proven that Victor had no ulterior motives, he would've assumed that Sean had been around Bella for other reasons.
Dominic remained calm as he met his gaze.
Nonetheless, Dominic disliked Sean because he felt that Sean was eyeing what was his.
Victor suspected something was wrong and asked, "Dominic, do you know Sean?" "Not really. We've only met once," Dominic answered calmly.
Upon hearing his answer, Sean gave a sarcastic chuckle. Though it was subtle, it was enough to darken Victor's face.
But with Dominic there, he couldn't scold his son openly, so he said with a smile, "Sean's only 19 and immature. I hope you don't take it personally and treat him like a child." Dominic raised his glass and smiled. "Of course, I won't mind. He's just a kid." At this moment, Sean's grin vanished. He despised it when 13010 others used his age against him. Dominic hadn't been here, he wouldn't have cas going out with the elders was such a headache.

I might not have had this opportunity if you hadn't broken up with her advise you not to treat everyone like a child. You should really consider if the child in her womb is yours or not." He effectively provoked Dominic. Dominic wasn't one to suppress his rage, even if the other party was the son of an important business partner.
Without a word, Dominic stepped up
and hurled his fist at Sean's face Sean had sfighting skills and quickly raised his arm to intercept the hit. Dominic's fist landed on his forearm instead. The bodyguards stared at one another, wondering what to do. Both were prominent figures, so none of them dared to intervene.
Dominic was physically stronger and delivered a punch to Sean's face, om pinning him to the ground. Even restrained, Sean still challenged him, "Go ahead and hit me. Killif you dare!"
Dominic's eyes were cold. "There's nothing I wouldn't dare, but there's no need. You're a brat who hasn't grown up-yet and should be taught a lesson by your parents."
