Chapter 1545
Belinda found herself at a loss for words.
She had seen conceited people before, but never anyone this delusional.
Did he honestly think he was a catch? Where did he get the nerve? Didn’t he own a mirror, or at least a reflective
pond?
A wave of annoyance washed over her, but given that the man was the son of her mother’s friend, she felt it was
inappropriate to be too harsh.
Dominic, noticing Belinda’s silence, naturally assumed that he had wowed her with his “wisdom.” A self-satisfied

“Ms. Wesley, there’s no need for introductions. I’ve heard about your background from my folks. You don’t need to
feel inferior. I’m not bothered by it. Why don’t we give dating a shot?”
Belinda was flabbergasted. He had more baffling statements up his sleeve. “You’re not bothered by me? Sorry, but
what could possibly bother you about me?”
“I heard you were engaged once before. You were even close to tying the knot, right? But the wedding ended up
being quite a fiasco, and you eventually broke it off, right?”
Belinda nodded. Yes, that was indeed true. So what?
Dominic shook his head. “You need to be realistic. To most men, a woman like you is practically considered a
divorcee. But I’m willing to ignore societal norms and accept you. What’s holding you back?”
What? Practically a divorcee?
How dare he say that about her?!
Belinda was so irate that she could no longer hold back her anger. Regardless of whose son he was, she was ready
to let him have it.
“Hahaha! This is hilarious! Mr. Dominic, have you ever taken a good, hard look at yourself in the mirror? I usually
don’t judge people based on looks to avoid bruising their egos, but you are so impolite that I see no reason to be
courteous towards you!
You are remarkably unattractive, and you don’t look 28 at all. You look more like 48! You look older than my dad!
Don’t tell me that’s your ‘mature charm. I’ve met genuinely mature and charming men, and trust me, you’re

And so what if I’m not highly educated? My family is wealthy! I can comfortably afford whatever I desire without
having to stress about academics. What’s wrong with being adored by my family? Are you jealous?
Yes, I almost got married once. That’s true! But how can a so-called brilliant man like you fail to comprehend such a
basic concept?
Almost getting married means I didn’t actually get married! Do you understand the meaning of ‘almost?’ If not, I’d
suggest you go back to school and hit the books again! What’s the point of having a degree if you don’t even
understand basic logic? And you have the audacity to look down on others for their lack of education? Ha!”
Upon hearing himself being criticized so harshly by a woman, Dominic’s face turned beet red with anger and
embarrassment. He stammered, “You…”
