The Daring Billionaire’s Wife by Lypstical

Dominic 

As soon as I’m at Carmella’s bedroom door, I don’t even have it in me to knock, so I just push it open and step inside. 

She’s on the bed and when she sees me, she runs to me and wraps her arms around me. I guess she’s doing much better but right now, I don’t give a shit about that. 

“Babe, you’re back, she says. “I’ve been trying to reach you.” 

Her arms are so tightly wrapped around my waist like everything’s fine between us but right now, my blood’s boiling. Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.

“You won’t believe what happened while you were away. Your mother was here and she was so mean to me. She ordered me. to leave this house but what she says doesn’t matter as long as you’re in charge. You’re the only one who can decide 

“Then go,” I say to her with no hesitation, clenching my fists to contain my anger. 

“What?” she asks, her head shooting up. 

I don’t ever want to look at her right now, so I keep my eyes on the wall as I pull away from her embrace by removing her arms from my waist 

Just as I take a step back, she tries to take a few steps forward, but I can’t stand her being so close to me right now. 

Don’t take another step closer,” I warn her, finally looking at her 

I 

“Babe, what’s wrong with you? Are you still mad about this morning? I told you I didn’t mean it, so stop being like this.” 

Even right now, I can’t believe how she’s still so nonchalant about all this. It makes my blood boil even more. 

“You must’ve missed the part where I said you should leave this house.” I clench my jaw. 

“You don’t mean that. It’s a joke, right?” 

“Did it sound like a joke to you?” 

She scoffs. “What the hell’s gotten into you?” 

It’s taking everything in me not to start yelling right now. 

“Tell me what happened at the orphanage.” 

“Ugh! Why are we going over that ag-” 

“I said tell me what fucking happened! 

She flinches, placing a hand on her chest as she narrows her eyes at me, but she can tell just how serious I am right now, so she looks away. 

“I don’t know why you’re making me go over this again,” she says “I told you that I accidentally knocked Billy over.” 

“And then what happened?” 

“Heft because I felt bad.” 

Her lies make me chuckle in disbelief.

“What’s funny?” she asks 

Poking my cheek, I take out my phone with my hands shaking in anger. I made sure to get the footage for myself. Once I scroll to it, I play the first clip for her, holding up my phone in her face. It’s the one where she shoves Billy to the floor and expresses her disgust. As she watches it, she gasps and covers her mouth. 

“Babe, I can- 

“Shut up and let it play.” 

Once it’s done, she attempts to speak, but I hold up my hand, telling her to wait. I breathe hard as I scroll to the next one. It’s the moment when she was talking to Vanessa outside, bluntly telling her how she doesn’t care. 

eyes 

widen so much that it looks like they might pop out. 

Once it’s done playing, I shove my phone back in my pocket, glaring at her as she attempts to gain sympathy. 

“It’s… it’s really not what it looks like. You have to believe me!” 

“Even when everyone else was against you, I always came to your defense, but they were all right. I was a fool because I was the only one who couldn’t see.” 

“Don’t believe whatever’s in those stupid clips, she says with a frantic gaze. “I just said all that in a fit of rage. 

“Do you think I’m stupid right now? Is that what you think of me I want you out of my house.” 

“No, please don’t do this!” 

I clench my fists, certain of what I’m about to say to her, “I don’t just want you out of this house, I want you out of 

“What? You don’t mean that. We…we love each other!” 

She tries to touch me but I move back. 

“Didn’t you 

my 

life. 

hear the part where I said you shouldn’t touch me? Hurry up and leave” I face the door and begin to storm 

“No! I’m not letting you go. She stubbornly runs to me, holds onto my hand and gets on her knees with tears streaming down her face. “Babe, I’m sorry.” 

OUL 

Her tears don’t even have any effect on me as I watch her bawl her eyes out. The more I stay in this room with her, the more I’ll lose my temper and I don’t want to, so I pull my hand away. 

“We’re done here, Carmella.” 

“You called me by name?” 

“Yes, pack your things and leave my house.” 

I manage to get away from her this time but as soon as I’m in the hallway, I run into Vanessa, who looks at me with concern 

“Hey, are you okay?” 

She’s become very good at reading my mood lately, but before I can even respond, Carmella grabs my attention when she calls out to me and rushes over. She drops to her knees again, tears still streaming down her face. 

You have to give me a chance. She holds onto my wrist with both hands. “Don’t do this to me!” 

With a sigh of frustration, I say, “I already told you we’re done. I don’t know what else you want to hear from me.” 

Though I’m looking at her while she’s in this state, I don’t regret my decision right now, 

Pulling my hand away, I begin heading to my bedroom and leave her there, but I stop in my tracks when she turns her 

attention to Vanessa. 

“This is all your fault!” she yells as she breathes hard. 

“What?” Vanessa asks. 

I instantly turn around and head back to them. I don’t want this to escalate. 

“Don’t play dumb! You did this! Are you happy now? I’m going to kill you for this!” 

Just as she swiftly raises her hand to slap Vanessa, I grab her wrist. 

“Don’t you dare lay a hand on Vanessa.” I warn her, then glance at Vanessa as I say, “and you, go to your room or something” 

Though Vanessa usually wouldn’t listen to such an instruction from me, it seems she understands the situation, so she nods and heads to her room right away. 

Even after she’s out of sight, Carmella twists her face in anger with her gaze fixed on Vanessa’s bedroom door. 

“Now you’re defending that bitch after she’s managed to come between us?” 

“Why can’t you see that this is all your fault? You did this to yourself. You’re the one who’s been lying to me and deceiving me. I’ll tell you one last time, I want you out of here right now. If you don’t pack your things and leave, I’ll have someone else do it. Why couldn’t you just be the person I thought you were? I’ll never forgive you for this.” 

“Babe?” She bursts into tears even more, bu 

more, but I’m not falling for it 

“If you’re not gone before the next hour, I’ll force you to go.” 

As I walk away, she desperately grabs my hand again, but I instantly pull away and she falls to the floor. Even with that, I don’t look back. I’m done. 

It’s now close to 2 a.m. and Frank and I are having & few drinks at his nightclub. Unlike him. I’m drinking straight from the whiskey bottle like it’s plain water. 

“Dude, you really need to slow down there,” he says to me. 

“You don’t understand the way I feel.” 

“Actually, I do. It’s written all over your face. I can’t believe you managed to get Carmella to leave the house. I guess she didn’t want the humiliation of being thrown out. But doesn’t that just draw more attention to the staff?” 

“What do you mean?” 

“They kind of know that you two were seeing each other. I’ll be honest with you, your decision to bring her over for a few days is one of the dumbest things you’ve ever done” 

“Are you trying to make me feel worse? 

Yes. 

Asshole 

He chuckles, then turns serious. “I never thought I’d see the day you’d break up with her. You were so into her.” 

色 

“That’s changed.” 

“Maybe it’s a little too soon for you to be sure of that. And I know how crazy she is. What if she refuses to accept this and comes crawling back?” 

“I’m not taking her back if that’s what you’re wondering. It doesn’t matter what she does. She’s gone and I’m single now.” 

He bursts into laughter and chokes a little on his whiskey. 

“What’s funny?” I ask, completely clueless. 

“Did you just say you’re single?” he asks, pointing at my wedding ring.
