In a dimly lit room obscured by the night, a man and a woman were making intense love while making passionate moans.
Celia Burton got out of bed after the sex, looking a little exhausted, and grabbed a pen and some papers from the bedside table drawer. She then handed the file to the man.
Celia carefully opened her swollen lips and said softly, “You have an early business trip tomorrow, so please sign these papers now in case you forget.”
The file appeared to be ordinary but important, but two unusual words were written on the cover: “Divorce Agreement.”
Dominic Dawson arose from the bed, his chest marked by her nails, but his face maintained its usual calm and indifference. He quickly skimmed the agreement’s terms before signing his name.
Celia was stunned for a moment before responding. “There’s no need for that. We agreed from the start that I wouldn’t take anything from you.”
Celia froze as the reality of how quickly ten years had passed dawned on her.
They got married back then because of circumstances beyond their control. She had arrived at his house at the age of fifteen and had soon engaged to him.
Dominic told her that they weren’t meant to be together the moment he saw her. He also said that if she wanted to stay with the Dawson family, she would have to sign an agreement with him, and she would have to leave after ten years.
They pretended to have a close and intimate relationship when they were in the presence of the Dawson family for ten years, but they were strangers to each other the rest of the time.
According to their agreement, she couldn’t be with him at the same time wherever he went.
take a bath. But just as she was about to get out of bed, he came up behind her and embraced her passionately, leading her back to bed.
Years of being together with him allowed Gelia to immediately understand Dominic’s intentions. “I’m tired,” she coquerishly sand as she wrapped her arms around his neck,” Can we just go to sleep”
“Let’s have one last time,” Dominic said as he bent down to kiss her lips, his ey
voice filled with tenderness.
Few women were able to resist his charm.
Celia lightly stroked his six–pack abs, thinking to herself, “Why not? Let’s enjoy it since it’s the last time.”
Dominic’s actions became even more daring as he seemed to sense her thoughts.
That night was exceptionally long.
before.
Her entire body hurt as if a huge truck had run over it.
But she knew that it was the last time they would make love Celia noticed that the divorce papers were still on the table and that Dominic had signed them.
Roberts.
“Mrs. Dawson, Mr. Dawson asked me to handle the divorce agreement. Are you available today?” Leon asked politely.
“Yes, I am. You can come over now,” Celia replied.
He soon arrived, holding another agreement in his hands.
As Dominic mentioned before, he said on the agreement that he would give her $500 million, and he signed his name to the new agreement.
Celia gently smiled, “There’s no need for that. Let us stick to our original agreement. Can you please help us with notarization?”
After being Dominic’s right–hand man for many years, Leon knew full well that Celia didn’t have a job. She had always stayed at home and rarely left the house.
He wondered how she would make ends meet apart from Dominic’s generosity.
“Mrs. Dawson, are you absolutely sure you won’t accept the money?” Unable to contain himself, he reminded her once again.
“We’ve already agreed on this, and it won’t change. By the way, please don’t call me Mrs. Dawson anymore. I’m Miss Burton now.”
Leon expected Celia to be hesitant to leave the house or to be overjoyed when she received the money. But he hadn’t expected her to be so composed and even already packed her luggage.
Coincidentally, Celia’s phone rang at that moment. She cast a glance at him and said, “There’s nothing for me to reconsider. I have other matters to attend to, so I’ll be leaving now.”
Celia left calmly with her suitcase, leaving Leon perplexed.
Not long after, Leon received a call from Dominic, the CEO.
Dominic’s tone was cold and indifferent, snapping Leon back to reality. Leon replied, “Almost.”
“If she doesn’t want to leave, just give her the house,” Dominic said after a brief pause. He continued, “After all, she’s been with me for ten years, and it wouldn’t hurt to give a bit more.”
Leon felt somewhat uncomfortable conveying the actual situation, but he still informed Dominic, “Miss Burton didn’t ask for anything.”
Dominic’s tone grew slightly colder as he remarked, “Miss Burton? You’ve changed how you address her quickly.”
change.
He expected Dominic to say something more, but when he rechecked his phone, he realized the call had already been dropped.
Meanwhile, Celia left the mansion and got into a car that was waiting for her. With a pleasant smile, the man in the car reached out and handed her the flowers. “Congratulations on achieving your goal and resuming your single life, my Boss.”
Celia kept a cold expression on her face as if it were her natural disposition. “Okay.”
years.
“I’m very busy.” She flatly refused.
“Oh, okay.” Ryan shrugged. “I figured you’d like it. After all, you didn’t show up to the party the day before you got married, so I assumed…”
His voice trailed off, curious in tone.
Celia glanced at him indifferently. “You’d better not mention my marriage again because all of that is now history. I just don’t like parties because I think they are a waste of time. It’s better for me to devote my time to something worthwhile.”
Ryan quickly shut his mouth after realizing he had mentioned her marriage again.
In fact, his words didn’t bother Celia. After being with Dominic for a decade, she saw it as perfectly normal for her employee to bring him up in conversation.
However, she would no longer bring up Dominic’s name in the future.
Celia’s first contact with the Dawsons was merely to complete an important task.
She had nothing to reminisce about in the past now that the task had been completed.
The image of that cold and arrogant man flashed through Celia’s mind, and she chuckled lightly. At least he was good–looking and came from a noble
background, so she hadn’t lost out.
A peaceful divorce was the best option for them.
Chapter 2 She Saved His Mistress
A month later, a group of people gathered in an emergency room at a hospital, making the atmosphere tense and alert.
A man in an expensive tailored suit hurried over, looking a little less polished than usual.
As Dominic fixed his gaze on the emergency room door, a hint of worry was visible in his cold eyes.
He glanced at Leon, who was standing next to him, and asked, “How long has she been inside?”
“Miss Murphy’s condition is more severe than we anticipated, Leon responded anxiously. “She passed out on the way here, but Dr. Lynn hasn’t yet arrived.”
“Hasn’t Dr. Lynn come back to the country already?”
“Her assistant did tell us earlier that she had returned and settled down, so we shouldn’t worry about not being able to reach her. However, they suddenly lost contact with her.”
Leon updated Dominic on the situation, saying, “Nonetheless, an attending physician has already gone in, so we should be able to buy some time.”
Employees nearby held their breath, fully aware that the woman waiting for the operation was the president’s true love. Rumors circulated that the president had recently divorced his ten–year–long wife in order to marry Miss Murphy.
The sounds of distant footsteps became closer. When Dominic heard a familiar voice, he turned to see a woman in a white coat and a mask, followed by several other people.
Even though she hadn’t been seen in a month, her eyes gave her away, and even Leon could recognize her as Celia, Dominic’s ex–wife.
Dominic was caught off guard by her and immediately jumped to a highly improbable conclusion.
He fixed his gaze on the woman before him while she remained indifferent and calmly told him, “You’re in the way.”
The dean quickly interjected, “Mr. Dawson, this is Dr. Lynn. Could you please let her in? The patient’s condition doesn’t allow for any further delays.”
Chapter She Saved His Miest
2 M.
Celia’s face remained expressionless, but a barely perceptible smile played on her lips. “Indeed, otherwise, don’t blame me if the person inside the operating room dies,” she remarked.
Dominic clenched his fist while Leon thought, “Miss Murphy is probably screwed.
They couldn’t believe Dominic’s ex–wife would go to such lengths to save the woman he loved.
Dominic turned to the dean for confirmation, asking. “Is she genuinely Dr.
Lynn?”
The dean nodded repeatedly, assuming Dominic was concerned about Celia’s identity. He quickly reassured him, saying, “Absolutely. Mr. Dawson, please rest assured. Dr. Lynn performed an emergency surgery at our hospital a few days. ago. We had already confirmed her qualifications, so I’m sure this is her. Don’t let her young age deceive you. Dr. Lynn’s medical abilities are truly exceptional. Please don’t worry. She’ll do the operation this time, and we should see at least at
50% success rate.
However, there was still a 50% chance of failure, which included unknown
uncertainties.
Celia crossed her arms and said, “If Mr. Dawson doesn’t want me to do the surgery, I can leave right now.
“How confident are you?” Dominic asked, even though the dean had already provided an answer.
Celia responded with a sneer, “Just 50%.”
When their gazes met, Celia showed no fear as she stared him down.
Dominic had never seen this side of Celia before. She had always seemed gentle and submissive to him, like a rose kept indoors, relying solely on his support.
He realized that maybe he never got to know her at all in the ten years they were together.
He stepped aside and said, “Go ahead.”
After racking his brain for something to say, Leon realized there was nothing more to add.
There was no choice but to allow Celia to carry out the operation at this time.
Chapon 2 She Sam
Celia nodded indifferently after removing her mask.
Dominic cast his gaze downward as the emergency room doors closed once
more.
Celia smiled to herself as she looked down at Grace Murphy in the emergency room and saw the terror on her face.
Why are you here. Celia?‘
Grace had been sedated and rendered immobile, but seeing Celia made her already ashen face look even paler.
Grace’s status as Dominic’s mistress was no secret to Celia.
Dominic married Celia because his family told him to do so, but his real affection lay with Grace.
Everyone believed that Dominic would eventually get married to Grace.
Celia, on the other hand, felt it had nothing to do with her.
Grace would have vanished long ago if Celia had really minded about her
existence.
With no visible emotion on her face. Celia took up the scalpel and warned. “You better cooperate with the surgery if you don’t want to die.”
“No. I don’t want you to operate on me! Leave we alone! I want to see Dominic!” Grace let out a piercing scream.
The doctors in the room exchanged looks as they all knew the patient would not cooperate. “Dr. Lynn. do you need to…” one of the doctors asked.
“No. I’m pressed for time.” Celia replied, smiling at the woman in the hospital. bed. “Suit yourself.”
“No, I don’t want you to perform the surgery. Get the hell out!” Grace yelled.
Celia sneered and continued on with the preparation. She told the attending physicians. “The patient is being too disruptive. Increase the anesthesia dosage.”
“Alright.”
Grace quickly fell into a deep sleep as the anesthesia was increased, and the operating room became silent as usual.
Grace’s face was terrified even when she was sleeping.
Chapter 2 She Saved His Mistress
Celia’s professionalism and confidence impressed everyone in the operating room, which made them trust her more.
The lights outside the emergency room were turned off after seven hours.
Celia was the first to open the door and step outside, and she ran right into Dominic, who was standing at the door.
He had clearly been standing there the entire time, waiting.
“Did it all go well?” he asked.
“Yes,” Celia said aloof as she removed her mask.
Leon showed a surprised expression in response to their conversation. They had once been a couple but now appeared to be strangers.
For Celia, Dominic had indeed become a stranger. The lengthy operation had drained her emotionally and physically, leaving her with little reserves for replying to him. She just wanted to leave at the moment.
Dominic, however, grabbed her hand as she tried to walk past him and led her in a different direction.
The nearby Dawsons, who had never met Celia, expressed bewilderment. Leon explained, “Mr. Dawson wants to get more information from Dr. Lynn.”
“But even if it’s just for an inquiry, he shouldn’t be holding her hand. Maybe he’s worried about Miss Murphy’s safety.” They could only come to this conclusion, despite how strange it felt.
He clutched Celia’s hand until they reached a quiet corner.
He soon backed her up against a wall and cornered her there.
“Why did
you become Dr. Lynn?” Dominic asked directly.
“I wanted to do something because I was bored,” Celia replied calmly. “What’s the problem with that?”
Dominic felt an unfathomable rage well up within him as he looked at her icy expression and remembered how she once was tender and caring.
“How is Grace doing?” he asked, taking a deep breath.
“I’ve already told you she’s not in any danger at the moment. However, she can only live if we find a suitable heart for her.” Celia explained Since childhood, Grace, Dominic’s childhood sweetheart, had congenital heart disease. She never
Chapter 2 She Saved His Mistress
found a suitable heart for replacement, resulting in her fragile health condition.
“If I hadn’t suddenly become his fiancee, he would have been with Grace a long time ago,” Celia thought to herself.
Dominic showed a frown before responding, “I understand. Thank you.”
“You don’t have to thank me because I’ll get paid after the surgery,” Celia said.
She only answered his questions out of a sense of duty as a doctor.
Dominic’s gaze darkened as he observed her aloofness.
“Celia, what kind of person are you?”
He was curious as to why she was so different from before.
Celia replied with a smile, “We’re already divorced, so none of this is relevant to you. I don’t think I have to answer your questions. You should pay more. attention to the people you care about.”
Dominic bit his tongue. He wanted to say something more, but she had already. begun to walk away.
Her departure was marked by a sense of confidence and independence.
Leon rushed up to Mr. Dawson and said, “Mr. Dawson, Miss Murphy has awoken. She’s been crying and is desperate to see you.”
“Got it,” he said, his eyes darkening slightly.
Chapter3 Everybody Knows
Celia went straight to sleep after the operation because she was exhausted. But not long after that, she woke up after Ryan called her.
“Boss, something happened at the bar. I need your help.” he told her.
“I got it,” Celia replied.
After a quick rub of the temples, Celia got dressed and headed straight to the bar.
Celia spent about an hour handling a situation that was neither major nor minor at the bar. Before she could leave, Ryan said with a chuckle, “Boss, since you’re here, why not have some fun?”
“This
is probably the real reason he’d asked me to come,” she thought.
She wasn’t in the mood at first, but after waking up in the wee hours of the morning, she felt more energetic and less sleepy. Celia nodded in agreement.
After Ryan got his desired answer, he cheerfully exclaimed, “Great! I’ll make the arrangements right away. Isn’t it wonderful? You’re finally here to see what we’ve prepared for you.”
Celia didn’t have high hopes for this surprise.
She poured herself a glass of red wine after opening a bottle.
She almost spit the wine out of her mouth when a group of men burst in as she took a sip.
Ryan immediately explained, “Sorry, time is tight. We had planned on having more men available for you, but now there are only a handful left. All of these people are avid exercisers and all of them look amazing. Check them out, would you? Do you have a favorite among these?”
As the guys formed a line, some of them puffed out their chests in pride. They were all very impressive looking, with broad shoulders, trim waists, and long, muscular limbs.
you believe I
Celia frowned as she asked, “Why did you bring them here? Do w can’t find guys on my own?”
“All I want is to make you happy! There are plenty of men hot guys in the world. and you can have as many men as you want with your social standing.”
Chapter Everybody Knows
Celia averted her gaze because she was tired of talking to Ryan. A decent–looking man then caught her attention. He was shyly smiling at her, exuding endearing
allure.
“They appear to be alluring seducers rather than ordinary humans,” she thought
to herself.
The door creaked open just then, revealing a man with slender legs striding into
the room.
Ryan asked, looking towards the door, “Is that the newcomer? You really move at a snail’s pace. I wouldn’t have called you if the person in charge didn’t said you’re good at that sex…”
Ryan paused in the middle of his sentence, staring at the man who had just entered.
Celia finally felt the silence around her. She didn’t want to say anything, but then the man walked directly toward her.
Celia could only see the man’s long legs because her gaze was fixed on the floor.
She said calmly, “These legs are nice! Honestly, they’re the best I’ve seen. Only one person can compare to him.”
The person she was talking about was Dominic.
She and Dominic had been together for ten years and knew each other inside. and out. She used to sneak touches of Dominic’s gorgeous legs when he wasn’t paying attention.
“Who are you comparing me to?”
The owner of those legs spoke up, his voice deep and tinged with danger.
Celia looked up into the man’s icy eyes.
She was a little tipsy at first, but she quickly sobered up and stood up.
“Why are you here?” she asked subconsciously while stepping back.
Dominic didn’t give her a chance to retreat. Instead, he took a step closer, his gaze deep and focused on her, and asked, “Are you here looking for hook ups?”
His gaze wandered over the hot guys in the room, sending shivers down. everyone’s spines.
Celia showed a smile. She wasn’t in the mood to respond and didn’t want him to
Cluptera Everybody Knows
associate her with that type of girl.
As she tried to
explain, the door opened again, and a handsome young man with a bright smile stepped inside and walked directly toward Celia. He looked like one of the coolest and most popular guys in college.
“Darling, I’m here to see you.”
Celia immediately said, “Don’t call me darling! I don’t even know who you are.”
The young man smiled at her as if he thought he had an irresistible charm. Het winked flirtatiously at her and said, “You’ll know me after you talk to me.”
Celia realized she couldn’t explain herself no matter how hard she tried.
Celia gave up trying to defend herself when Dominic reached out and snatched. her into his arms, lifting her up in arms carry.
Celia was surprised. She struggled to regain her footing, waved her legs in the air, and yelled, “Put me down!”
Dominic said nothing as he strutted away with her in his arms.
The only people left in the room were a group of sexy men and a stunned Ryan.
“God knows that I was just trying to cheer her up!” Ryan thought to himself.
Dominic carried Celia upstairs to a private room, where a group of Dawson’s bodyguards stood at the door.
He brought her into the room.
Since she was the bar’s owner and wouldn’t be in any danger there, Celia didn’t feel the need to panic.
“Why are you…
Just
as she was about to ask a question, he abruptly kissed her, causing her eyes. to widen with surprise.
Their breaths intertwined, igniting a passionate fire within the room.
Celia found herself being held even tighter by him after making an unsuccessful attempt to push him away.
“You just got divorced, and now you’re looking for a fling?”
He spoke with a deep, husky voice that gave him a frightening air.
Chapter Everybody Knows
She asked unhappily, “We’re divorced, so why shouldn’t I explore other options?”
“What about me?”
She didn’t understand what he had said, which confused her.
Before Celia could ask, he silenced her with another kiss, leaving her without a chance to speak.
The temperature in the room gradually rose as their intimacy intensified.
Celia was hesitant to make love to him because she was exhausted. But because they were so familiar with each other’s bodies and the chemistry was still there, she eventually began cooperating with him as he aroused her.
Outside, the sky began to brighten.
While Celia woke up and felt aching all over, the man who started it all had not
yet awoken.
If they were at home, Celia would have already risen to prepare a delicious breakfast for Dominic out of habit.
She realized that having that habit was a terrible thing.
But he wouldn’t have the chance to eat the breakfast she made today.
Celia frowned. Thinking about how wild he had been during sex the night. before, she wrote him a note that read, “Technique regressed. Practice harder.”
Although rough sex could sometimes be enjoyable, she found herself sore afterward.
Furthermore, spending another night with her ex–husband after their divorce was difficult for her to accept.
Celia placed her hand on his cheek and resisted the urge to hit him before exiting the room.
She hadn’t been gone long when the man on the bed opened his eyes slowly.
When Celia called the hospital, she was told that Grace was doing well.
Therefore, Celia thought it was normal for Dominic, an attractive man, to feel the need to find another woman to satisfy his desires.
“Forget it. Let’s just move on, considering he has freely offered me his services many times before,” Celia thought to herself.
Chapter3 Everybody Knows
Just then, Celia received an unexpected call from her friend Chelsea Cole, who came from a wealthy family.
“Celia, did you really slept with Dominic last night? Good job!” Chelsea.
exclaimed.
Confused and taken aback, Celia responded with surprise, “What are you talking about?”
Celia and Dominic had never publicly announced their marriage. Almost no one knew about their real relationship, and they were never seen together in public.
Only the Dawson family, the Burton family, and Dominic’s assistant were aware. of their marriage.
Celia was confused as to why Chelsea would be aware of this.
Chelsea burst into laughter before remarking. “You’re still trying to hide it from me, aren’t you? It’s all over our circle now that we know about it!”
Chapter Awful Prank
Chapter4 Awful Prank
Celia furrowed her brow slightly. She had been secretly married to Dominic for several years, and they had managed to keep it hidden from everyone.
But she was shocked to learn that Dominic hadn’t taken any measures to protect their secret after what happened last night.
While Celia was talking to Chelsea, she sent a message to Ryan, asking him about what had happened the night before and how things stood right now.
“Boss, Dominic removed all the surveillance cameras at the bar, and we already took care of the situation there,” Ryan responded.
Celia arched her brow slightly, as she knew it meant that this information would almost certainly not be leaked.
She was intrigued by how this information, which was not supposed to be shared with others, had somehow leaked out.
“Please, Celia, be honest with me. How lo
have you been dating Dominic?
Don’t think you can hide it from me! I’m your best friend!” Chelsea said coyly. over the phone.
Celia asked tentatively, clearing her throat, “Do you have any photos? How come you believed that rumor?”
Chelsea replied, “Everyone is spreading this news, but there doesn’t seem to be any evidence.”
“That’s not true,” Celia said straightforwardly.
She then sent a message to Leon, requesting that he look into the situation.
“It’s a shame it’s not true!” Chelsea didn’t dwell on the subject but then said, as she felt a little disappointed, “I thought it was true, especially given the good. relationship between the Dawson family and your family There were rumors circulating a few years ago that you were Dominic’s secret wife.”
Someone had seen Dominic and a woman getting their marriage license, and from there, the rumor spread throughout high society.
The lady was so undressed then that she didn’t even show her face. People would have been more eager to discuss this gossip otherwise.
Celia responded flatly, “It’s not me. In fact, Dominic is in love with someone else.”
“Exactly! I know you wouldn’t be interested in a man who has feelings for someone else, Celia. That’s why we’re now calling Dominic a “scumbag.” Grace was still abroad at the time, so that woman wouldn’t be her. I can’t believe he’s got back with Grace again.”
Chelsea said, tapping her head in regret, “Oh, I can’t believe I fell for their lies. Let’s go out and do some shopping, Celia. Please give me the opportunity to apologize to you.”
Celia had been extremely busy for the past month, so she jumped at the chance to take a break and agreed.
She believed that her involvement with Dominic did not need to be revealed to more people because it was already history. In addition, no one would ever find
out about it in the future.
Celia and Chelsea made plans to meet at their favorite shopping center.
As soon as Chelsea saw Celia, she noticed the hickey on her neck. “Oh my goodness! Celia, are you seeing someone these days?”
“No, it’s just an accident,” Celia replied, frustrated internally, thinking, “Damn it! Dominic went over the line! How could he have forgotten not to leave any marks
on me?”
Chelsea chuckled as she said, “Don’t worry. We’re all grown–ups here.”
Although Chelsea had dated many guys before, she never did anything inappropriate, especially when she had a boyfriend.
Celia still liked her as a friend because they shared some similarities.
After putting the Dominic incident behind them, the two girls went out for coffee. They had just entered their favorite boutique shop when she heard at woman say something loudly.
“This outfit is perfect for you, Gracel You look stunning.”
Celia looked over in the direction the voice had come from. As soon as she saw Grace, who was pale and frail in a snow–colored tulle dress, one word came to her mind: “angelic bitch.”
Grace smiled gently as she looked at herself in the mirror, saying, “Yes, it does suit me. Thank you, Lydia.”
Chelsea rolled her eyes and said, “What bad luck to run into them.” when she saw
Chiprers Awhil Prank
them.
While Lydia Brady got along well with Grace, she couldn’t stand being around Chelsea. They had been at odds with each other ever since they were young children and enjoyed putting each other down.
Lydia had always been a fan of metal–rock music. She looked like a tomboy with her short hair, metal earrings, ripped jeans, and her studded denim jacket.
Lydia and Grace made an interesting contrast because of their completely. different fashion choices.
Chelsea lost interest in entering the store, but Lydia soon noticed them.
“Oh, look who’s here. Miss Cole and the woman who seduced Mr. Dawson, Lydia sneered coldly as she made her way straight for Celia.
“Who do you think you are, Celia Burton? You’re just a distant relative of the Burton family. How dare you steal Grace’s man?” Lydia said aggressively to Celia.
Grace came over awkwardly and drew Lydia back. As Grace cast a glance at Celia. She said, “Enough, Lydia. Please don’t say anything like that.”
Lydia glared angrily at Celia and asked, “Why can’t I say it? It’s the truth, isn’t it? She really did it!”
Grace bit her lower lip as tears welled up in her eyes.
Lydia had a lot of sympathy for Grace. “How can you be so cocky as a mistress?” she asked, her gaze shifting to Celia. “I’m going to teach you a lesson today.”
She raised her hand and attempted to slap Celia across the face.
Everyone around them was taken aback by how quickly the incident unfolded.
Lydia came from a wealthy family, but she was known for acting on impulse. Chelsea prepared to intervene, fearing that her seemingly weaker best friend Celia would lose.
Celia’s slender hand caught Lydia’s hand the next second.
“Why do you want to teach me a lesson? Who do you think you are?”
“Let go of me!”
Lydia experienced a sharp pain in her wrist. When she heard a crisp sound of bone breaking, her face turned even paler.
“Ah!” Lydia let out a piercing scream of pain that echoed throughout the store.
Celia shrugged off that hand with case. On the other hand, Lydia staggered. backward, knocking over a few clothing racks and ending up disheveled.
“Celia, what are you doing?”
Grace was stunned and rushed over to Lydia to help her in getting up.
Lydia gripped her hand, tears streaming down her cheeks from the pain.
Chelsea was surprised, but she remained by her best friend’s side. “You started it first! You wanted to slap Celia.”
“What’s the big deal about slapping her? She’s the slut who seduced Dominic.”
“That’s nonsense! Celia didn’t seduce…”
Just then, footsteps were heard nearby, and a man’s cold voice rang out slowly, “What’s going on
