Drunk and Daring I Kissed a Tycoon

Chapter 452

Dominic was caught off guard. He then said, "Alright then. Let's cancel it."

The moment the words left his mouth, Nancy suddenly lunged forward and wrapped her arms around him. She

was so fast that even Vespera didn't have tto react.

Dominic frowned in irritation and reached up to push Nancy away, but she pleaded with a nasal tone, "Just ten

minutes. Lethug you for ten minutes. | swear | won't bother you again."

Nonetheless, Dominic still pushed Nancy off firmly. He didn't let her do as she wished just because it was her last

plea. With a calm yet cruel voice, he said, "Goodbye."

After saying that, Dominic walked past Nancy without hesitation. Vespera followed after Dominic.

Ten minutes might not sound like much, but give someone ten minutes, and it might end up becoming 20

minutes. Maybe even 30 minutes. If that happened, Nancy might be caught in a lie, thinking that she still had a

chance.

Dominic wasn't in the wrong. Sometimes, cutting clean was the kinder thing to do.

Dominic said, "Vera, if you walk any slower, it'll be sunrise soon."

He stopped walking and waited for Vespera. Hearing that, she quickened her pace and reached his side. He held

her hand, his hand warming her cold hand. He said, "Let's go. It's tto head back to Halewick."

They continued walking while Nancy stood frozen where Dominic had left her. She didn't turn to look or go after

him. She just stood there as the word goodbye -echoed in her mind. She covered her face and let herself break

down into sobs.

On the way downstairs, Vespera couldn't keep her curiosity in check any longer. She asked, "Mr. Reid, I've got a

nosy question. Were you and Ms. Acosta ever actually together romantically? I've heard so many rumors. Was it

one of those tragic love-hate stories, or did you give her up for your brother?"

Dominic was rendered speechless. He frowned and questioned, "Where did you hear all that?"

Naturally, Vespera couldn't throw Gerard and Calvert under the bus. She answered, "Mr. Smith mentioned it

before."

Dominic raised an eyebrow. All of a sudden, he asked, "So, you have been believing these rumors this whole

tand only decided to ask now?"

Vespera admitted, "I didn't want to be rude."

Dominic remained expressionless. After taking a few more steps, he finally answered, "The rumors are all

nonsense. I've never had any kind of romantic relationship with her. There was no love story, heartbreak, or

betrayal."

Vespera had been expecting stic love story, but Dominic ended it in just a few words. She asked, "You

never dated her? But she was so convinced you loved her. Everything she said sounded so real."

Everything Nancy told Vespera sounded so detailed that Vespera truly thought Nancy was Dominic's ex-

girlfriend.

Dominic felt helpless as he said, "She made it all up."

Vespera was bewildered. It was all made up? Nancy imagined an entire relationship?

Dominic looked at Vespera's stunned expression and reached out to give her a gentle pat on the head. He said,

"Don't overthink it. You're my first girlfriend."

Vespera looked at Dominic, then glanced toward the direction they had cfrom. The world truly was full of

strange people And the longer a person lived, the more of them the person would meet. s

Suddenly, everything Vespera had worried about earlier seemed kind of pointless. Now that she thought about it,

it was no wonder Dominic, who was usually calm had lost his temper with Nancy. s

Vespera and Luke had actually been in love, and when he wouldn't leave her alone, she had practically wanted

to punch him in the face.

Vespera thought about what would happen if someone who wasn't her ex-boyfriend made up an entire fake

relationship in his head and followed her around for years, spreading rumors. want to she would probably hit

them, too. On the contrary,

Dominic's reaction was already very calm.

s

Vespera muttered, "You really have it rough."

Dominic thought Vespera was referring to their relationship and said, "It's fine. No one has it easy."

Vespera thought that Dominic was surprisingly profound.

With different thoughts in mind, the two stepped out of the castle and got into the car. When they left, another

car tailed behind them.

They boarded the plane once again, but this twith three additional passengers in tow. Dominic had them sit

in the back.

Emily sipped on the fresh-pressed juice Mia handed her as her eyes kept drifting toward Vespera. Emily seemed

to have seen Vespera's eyes somewhere before. "Ms. Gildon, were you at the masquerade ball that night?" Emily

asked. Vespera smiled and answered, "I was, but you probably didn't know. My friend had broughtthere."

Emily murmured, "That explains it. | thought you looked familiar.

Suddenly, it hit her. Wasn't Vespera the woman in the green dress that night?
