Chapter 87 Humiliation
| knew Dominic too well. He was a savage, violent, mentally ill, and unjust man. A gentleman such as Nicholas
would not stand a chance against him.
| grew anxious and tried to tug my hand away from Nicholas.
Nicholas stopped walking and looked at me. Seeing that | did not appear disappointed, he smiled softly and
asked, “What's wrong?”
| looked at him with guilt and awkwardly smiled. “Um... | think | won't be eating. Maybe next time. Thanks for the
treat anyway.”
“Why?”
He looked atso intensely that | didn’t know what to say. After all, | could not tell him that Dominic was about
to break my wrist. I'm also worried he might cripple you!
As | hesitated, Dominic gavean even more forceful tug, causing my hand to escape from Nicholas’ grasp as |
fell into Dominic's embrace.

Dominic replied, “There is no reason. She can only eat with me.”
Damn it. He's so domineering!
| don’t get it. Who am | to him? Why should he care about who | eat with? If he can eat with Camille, why can't |
dine with someone else?
| beceven angrier the more | thought about it. | stood steadily and pushed Dominic aside.
“Dominic, don’t get too full of yourself. Why do | need your approval to eat with anyone? You always eat with
whoever you want; have you ever asked for my consent?”
We had only walked a few steps when Camille caught up to us. As soon as | saw her, | could not control myself
and | shouted at Dominic.
“Liliana, | never knew that you don’t likeeating together with Dom. If | knew, | wouldn't have come. I'm
sorry.”
Before Dominic could speak, Camille was already apologizing and looking all guilty. By admitting that it was her
fault, she made it look like | was the one bullying her.
F*ck, how shameless can she be?
Dominic frowned and glared atupon hearing what Camille said.
“Liliana, don’t be rude. Camille did nothing wrong. Who do you think you are to me? Do we have to report to you
that we're having a meal together?”
I was shocked that he askedwho | was to him.
Indeed, he was my boss and | was only a caregiver. How dare | control who he eats with! Besides, there was
nothing wrong with a couple eating together, yet | shamelessly criticized him for that.
I'm such an idiot!
“Dom, don’t say that to her. It is all my fault for returning after five years. She just hasn't adapted to it.”
Camille pitifully grabbed Dominic's sleeve and shook her head desperately. Had | not witnessed that scene back
then, | might also be led to think that | had misunderstood her.
“You did nothing wrong. She’s the one who doesn’t know anything and still bullied you. Is this what you call a
good friend? Liliana, do you know that Camille...”
“Dom, | feel dizzy. | don’t feel so good.”

Before | got to react to Dominic's inexplicable accusations, he was interrupted by Camille. He quickly carried
Camille in his arms and glared at me.
“Go back immediately. Look at you. He invited you to dinner only because he’s met too many beauties and
wanted a change of taste to try something simpler. Yet, here you are, assuming he’s actually into you.”
Then he hurriedly brushed pastwith Camille in his arms and left the restaurant.
Dominic's leaving did not burn my eyes but his words hurt my feelings. He humiliatedin front of Camille like |
was nothing but dirt on the ground.
If I am really so ugly, why did he treatlike that?
Was it because he also wanted a change of taste and try something simpler?
| didn’t utter a word. However, my body was trembling. Suddenly, | found myself in an embrace.
“He’s wrong. | only like simpler women. Complex and fancy women makesick.”
Nicholas...
| knew he was just comfortingbut | needed the warmth badly. | held back my tears and buried my head in his
arms.
