Chapter 39: You promised to keep an open mind
After dinner, Dominic went straight to his room to have a cool shower. He was a man who had dealt with many situations and people who weren't easy to please. Dominic had always been confident in himself as a businessman, but his wife was someone who puzzled him.
Heaven was very predictable in the past, but ever since that night he brought up divorce, he couldn't read her anymore.
"Hah..." Dominic comb his hair back, cocking his head while the water from the showed landed directly on his face. 'Heaven... just what is in your mind?'
Just thinking about it gave him a headache. His mind for the entire day had been occupied by her proposal to postpone the divorce and her messages. Now, this one.
[ You. What I want is you, Dominic Zhu. There's your answer. ]
Dominic pulled his head back and snapped his eyes open. Heaven's previous remarks suddenly rang in his head along with how her lips moved, stressing every word in that sentence. His expression darkened, pinching the bridge of his nose.
'She's driving me crazy,' he thought, having a slight headache from his wife's actions and words. Not knowing what she truly wanted was driving him crazy.
He didn't want to believe everything she had said. At least, he believed a few but not all. He took some like the one that suddenly popped into his head as empty words. There was no way she would mean those words.
His eyes fell to the floor, watching the water go straight down the drain. As he recalled her words earlier, he couldn't help but remember a memory he would never forget.
