Chapter 312 Have You Had Enough Fun
While Bella leaned over the observation deck, looking down, Dominie had already ordered their food. She turned
to him, complaining, "If had known you were just bringingto eat, | wouldn't have come. | hadn't even
touched my food at that restaurant! You owe me
money!"
He let out a soft snort, sounding somewhat mocking. "Penny-pincher, if you love money so much, why did you
giveback the breakup fee?"
She paused for a moment, quickly organizing her thoughts. "Because | was the one who ended things. But | can't
afford to give you a breakup fee. How about we offset the breakup fee with the cost of my meal?"
Dominic nearly crushed the glass in his hand. "Am | worth only that much?"

Seeing him angry brought her a sense of satisfaction. She sat cross-legged across from him. Yes, so don't be too
greedy."
Ultimately, he restrained himself and set the glass down before speaking mildly, "I don't argue with fools."
Bella was speechless.
They exchanged a few words during dinner. She enjoyed the wine at this restaurant and sipped a few glasses.
Feeling uncomfortable from sitting down for too long, she stood up and walked back to the observation deck.
Fireworks were being set off in the square below, and this was undoubtedly the best vantage point. This was
probably the only thing she felt was worth it about tonight; it was her only. moment of joy.
Hearing footsteps approaching from behind, she shifted to the side. "The fireworks are
beautiful. It's so lively down there."
Dominic's voice was cold. "Who was the one who didn't want to cin the first place?"
Bella pouted. "Speople just kill the vibe."
The air suddenly fell silent, leaving only the sound of the fireworks bursting.
Gradually losing interest in the display, she said, "I'll get going now." She felt their encounter for today should
end.
He suddenly spoke up, "Is being withreally that painful for you? You used to be impossible to drive away.
Why do you suddenly not want to see me?"
A wave of bitterness washed over her. "You said it yourself; that was in the past. Also, stop. targeting me. Even
without you targeting me, my life wouldn't be particularly glamorous. | just need a job to get by."
He turned to look at her. "If you can't make it, cfind me. Why struggle on your own?"
Bella couldn't meet his gaze. She lowered her head and said in a cold, rigid tone, "As long as you don't target
me, | can survive. But it's fine even if you don't show mercy; poor people have their ways of living. Being near
you hasn't added much color to my life." For sreason, her voice started to quiver as she spoke. These words

Suddenly, he reached out, cupped her face, and said through gritted teeth, "I don't believe you!
As he leaned closer, she didn't pull away. Her eyes, glistening with tears, were filled with
indifference. "Have you had enough fun yet?"
His movements froze. He had never seen her look like this before; she felt unfamiliar to him now. Gone was the
woman who had always looked at him with warmth and light in her eyes.
A trace of panic flickered in his eyes, and it was barely perceptible.
When Bella walked away, Dominic made no move to stop her.
