who your new stepmom is?"
lan's facial features twisted with distaste. "Why would | care? Every one of his marriages has been about
business, nothing more.
lan didn't stay much longer, and Bella noticed his whole demeanor was different from usual, which piqued her

lan had been living on his own since he was a teenager, and his relationship with his father was extremely
strained. As for the reasons, Dominic didn't go into detail. This was lan's private business, and Bella knew better
than to pry. On the day of the wedding, Dominic wore a charcoal-gray suit, looking far more put-together than he
had in days.
Lately, he'd mostly been wearing loose, casual clothes at hto help with his recovery. Hence, seeing him in
formal attire again felt refreshing.
Bella had always found him irresistible in a suit, and watching him now, her heart skipped a
beat.
Oblivious to her reaction, Dominic adjusted his tie and urged her, "Hurry up. I'll be waiting downstairs."
Bella mumbled an agreement and hurried to put on her earrin she just left it down.

After rummaging through her closet, she chose a sheath dress in a soft, moonlit white, with simple, vintage floral
patterns and a matching shawl. It looked formal enough. The only downside was that the outfit looked best with
heels.
Bella wasn't used to wearing high heels as they were impractical for her busy shifts at the hospital. Whenever
she did wear them, it took a little getting used to.
Once they were in the car, Dominic glanced at her "Your makeup's pretty light."
Bella's first reaction was to think he found it inappropriate. "I don't know how to do heavy makeup..."

Bella hadn't realized that lan was Steven's son. To think that this heir had chosen to study medicine and become
a doctor!
After getting out of the car, she instinctively moved to support Dominic by his side. He turned to her with a wry
expression. "Afraid people won't notice that I'm still recovering?"
Bella let go of his arm, embarrassed. "Fine. Walk by yourself, then."
With a sigh and a hint of exasperation, he took her hand and placed it back in the crook of his arm. "There are a
lot of people here, and this hotel is huge. Stick withand don't wander off, or you'll really embarrass yourself
