Chapter 303
The two people standing by the elevator were Luke and a woman in a pink and white dress. When Vespera saw them, she stopped in her tracks.
She thought, "Some things are just unavoidable. If you're meant to run into it, you will sooner or later."noveldrama
The elevator had already arrived, but Luke and the woman hadn't gotten in. From the look of it, they were waiting deliberately after spotting Vespera and Dominic.
Were they looking for trouble?
Vespera felt frustrated. Beside her, Dominic raised his eyebrow, unfazed. "Mr. Munoz, it has only been a couple of days since Ms. Sowle got caught, yet you're already acting this way."
Dominic's gaze shifted to the woman at Luke's side. He questioned, "Isn't this going a bit far?"
Luke's expression darkened, but he didn't say anything. His sharp gaze moved from Dominic to Vespera. The moment he saw Dominic's jacket draped around her, his gaze changed. It was like he was ready to kill someone.
Meanwhile, the woman next to Luke was staring at Dominic. She was glowing with excitement.
One man was completely fixated on Vespera. One woman was completely infatuated with Dominic.
And Vespera? She felt like she was trapped between two unhinged people, and she was the only one aware of how creepy the situation actually was.
"Since Mr. Munoz has nothing to say, let's go," whispered Dominic into Vespera's ear after leaning down. He wrapped an arm around her waist and guided her toward the elevator.
Just as they passed by, Dominic was held back, and a sweet voice chirped. "Hey, wait!"
Vespera was surprised and turned to look. It was the woman with Luke. When Dominic heard that, his gaze immediately darkened, and he yanked his arm back. He said firmly, "I don't know her."
"But she..." Vespera wanted to say something, as the way the woman had stopped Dominic felt far too natural.
The next second, the woman said, "I know you. You're the handsome man."
Confused, Vespera looked at the woman's innocent, childlike gaze. She immediately understood that the latter had intellectual disabilities.
The woman Luke had brought home in the middle of the night had a severe intellectual disability.
Vespera's expression turned cold, and she said, "Luke, take her back. Wherever you found her, take her back there."
Luke caught the anger in her voice and let out a mocking laugh. "What's the matter? Are you jealous?"
Vespera shot him a look full of disgust. "Don't be vile."
The woman might have been beautiful, but it was obvious something was off. Anyone could guess what Luke was thinking by bringing her here at this hour.
Someone with that level of
intellectual disability was essentially a child who was mentally stuck at the age of three to six. And someone who would even think of taking
advantage of that wasn't just disgusting. They were beneath contempt.
Vespera's glare struck something in Luke's chest. He was already in a bad mood,
but seeing her standing there with Dominic pushed him over the edge.
Suddenly, Luke smirked evilly and shoved the woman, Carly, toward
Dominie. "Go on. Go toward the handsome man. He likes you a lot. He'll take good care of you.
Vespera was speechless. On the other hand, Carly looked thrilled. She immediately tried to hug Dominic.
But Dominic sidestepped her neatly and said flatly, "Mr. Munoz, you seriously need to get your head checked."
Then, Dominic took Vespera's hand and walked past them into the elevator.
"Wait..." Carly cried, following Dominic and Vespera inside.
Luke walked away and didn't even glance back. He passed through the security gate and went to the garage.
Vespera looked at Carly, who was smiling at Dominic in the elevator, and then at Luke's retreating figure.
Was Luke insane? Why would he leave Carly with them?
As the elevator doors shut, Carly inched closer to Dominic with a sweet smile.
Dominic instantly took a few steps back and pulled Vespera in front of him as a human shield. At the same
time he said sharply, "Stay right there. Don't move." fo
Dominic didn't want to hurt a woman. As expected, Carly obeyed and stood still.
