Chapter 196
“You want me to leave?” Stephante suppressed her anger, but when she looked at Dominick, who was leaning against the headboard, she saw his furrowed brows, which obviously showed that he was enduring something
She knew his temper and believed that he would not drive her away because of a woman. He wanted her to leave because he was hiding something
from her.
“Why?” Stephanie stepped forward and asked in a low voice, trying to calm down. “Dominick, I’m your wife. No matter what happens, you should tell me. Why…”
“Take her out” Dominick impatiently rang the bedside bell.
Hayley had been standing quietly by the side, watching the tense scene between the couple, stunned. It was the first time she witnessed Dominick bring so cold to Stephanie.
Soon, the club’s security guards came over.
“Don’t touch me. Get out!” Stephanie didn’t glance at the security guards on both sides. She stared at Dominick and yelled at him, “Dominick, I won’t go!
She would not leave.
“Take her out,” Dominick ordered coldly, with accumulated anger bursting out.
Stephanie was stunned, Until the tall security guards held her arms and she was dragged out of the room, she finally realized that he really asked people to drive her away.
“Dominick, why are you driving me away? Why can Hayley know? She can stay with you, but I can’t.”
Stephanie’s eyes turned bloodshot in anger. She yelled at Dominick, then turned her head to the right and bit the security guard’s arm hard, taking the opportunity to push them away.
“Take your hands off me! I can go out myself. Get lost
The security guards had complicated expressions and hesitated whether to rush up to capture her.
Stephanie, standing at the door, looked cold and stopped moving. She suddenly became quiet
She spoke. “Vincent is not here, or he would definitely scold me for meddling in your business and making trouble for you. Everyone says that 1 can’t help you with anything. Dominick, in your opinion, I will only cause trouble for you and hold you back, right? I feel like we have never been like a couple. Your family is powerful and wealthy. You married me just for creating the next generation. What right do I have to interfere with your things?”
Stephanie looked very calm and spoke gently without revealing a trace of excitement. She was just stating a fact
She was so calm that Dominick, on the bed, felt his heart ache a bit.
“Dominick, I know myself. I know I can’t interfere or help you with your company’s affairs or your personal affairs.”
Stephanie thought she would lose her temper willfully and vent her anger at these security guards, but she didn’t She was surprised that she suddenly became so calm, but she felt more self–contemptuous.
Dominick wanted to drive her away simply because she shouldn’t have been there.
As he had emphasized many times, even if she knew, she couldn’t help him at all.
“But I just want to know” Stephanie thought, ‘Dominick, you won’t understand that feeling!
After saying that, she turned around and walked towards the door. Dominick asked her to leave, and she would go.
“I’ve been thinking about many things all day long, and I know I was wrong. Maybe I shouldn’t have come here to bother you today.” Stephanie murmured and bit her lower lip
Tears welled up in her slightly red eyes, but she tried her best to hold them back. She wouldn’t pretend to be soft or learn from those artificial women. She had her own pride, but she was confused and unconvinced.
*Dominick, am I wrong to worry about you?” Stephanie slammed the door.
The people in the room looked stunned. Her voice was soft, but it was loud enough for Dominick to hear clearly.
For a moment, there was a dead silence in the room

Chapter 196
“Go out,” Dominick, on the bed, suddenly said in a hoarse voice. He closed his eyes, and annoyance filled them.
Hayley’s heart skipped a beat. Looking at Dominick’s pale face, she said, “Dominick, do you know how serious your condition is? You need someone to accompany you.”
“I didn’t ask you to accompany me.” Dominick’s words were so cold and heartless,
190
He didn’t let her accompany him, but at least… Hayley thought she at least knew about his affairs and difficulties, and his attitude towards Stephanie was apparent. He was very opposed to Stephanie interfering with his private affairs.
“Dominick, you should stay in Serenburg and listen to your grandfather to have the surgery immediately.”
Hayley’s voice suddenly became a little hoarse. Then, with hesitation, she said what had been hidden in her heart for a long time, “Dominick, I have stayed by your side for all these years. Don’t you really feel that I… I’m worrying about you.”
She dared not to say, “I like you.” She knew very well that once she said it, Dominick would drive her out of his life without hesitation.
I’m worrying about you: Stephanie had just said this, too,
Dominick recalled this, and what she had just said came into his mind. Every word was so clear. Her words and her humbleness…
“You should worry about Oscar. Get out His headache got worse. Dominick opened his eyes, which were filled with coldness. He looked at Hayley and ordered her in a harsh tone like a boss giving a subordinate an order.
Hayley tensed all over and looked at Dominick His attitude towards her and Stephanie was so different
Stephanie didn’t know how cold and ruthless Dominick would be when he really wanted to drive someone away.
“Stephanie, do you know…
“I don’t know!” Stephanie interrupted Molly. After leaving the club, she went directly to Molly’s apartment. When Molly saw her, she was really
stunned.
“Stephanie, you have a big belly. What if
“I won’t go back.”
Seeing Stephanie so stubborn, Molly got angry. She moved closer and tried to persuade her again, but she suddenly shouted, “Stephanie, are you crying?”
There was no reply.
Stephanie sat down on the sofa in the living room with a stern face and fell quiet.
She left the club without looking back, raised her chin, and held back her tears.
She would not cry. She had done nothing wrong but had just been kicked out by a bastard.
Molly was scared by her sudden silence. Stephanie used to be willful, so it was really a bit unusual for her to be so quiet.
“What b
happened, Stephanie?” Molly sat next to her and asked with concern. “Did you have a fight with Dominick
Stephanie lowered her head and murmured. “I feel that since I married Dominick, I seem to have become greedy.
Dominick was so good to her, and she gradually forgot how aloof he had been and even hoped to get to know him more.
“Stephanie, the Wellington family is complicated. If you are not allowed to interfere in some matters, then you…
“Molly, I don’t know if what I did was right, but I don’t want to be the kind of woman who needs to be protected. I don’t want to be kept in the dark, and I will do my best to get the happiness I want.”
