Shattered Longings 86
Chapter 86 In His Bed
The next day, Bella woke up to find it was already past 1:00 pm. Since it was her day off, she didn’t have to go to the hospital She lazily closed her eyes again
Outside, the sun was blazing, but the room stayed cool because the air conditioner was running.
She rubbed her forehead, feeling a slight headache from drinking too much the night before, but it wasn’t too bad
Suddenly, she remembered last night
She opened her eyes wide as she recalled Dominic shouting at her on the rooftop. She had been so scared that she almost fell. Dominic pulled her back, and they both ended up falling
She wondered what happened next and how she ended up back in her room. She couldn’t remember any of it.
As Bella started to wake up, she noticed something was wrong. The room didn’t smell like her usual scent but had Dominic’s smell instead.
She realized she was in his room–sleeping in his bed!
She also noticed she was wearing his pajamas, which had been pulled up above her chest, and her undergarment was out of place…
She was completely confused. The empty spot next to her in bed still felt warm. What happened last night?
Trying to sneak out without being seen, Hells left his room. Bot Sylvia appeared at the top of the stairs, as if she had been watching.
“Ms. Jones, you’re awake? Mr. Miller saw you were still asleep at lunchtime, so he didn’t wake you. Do you want me to get you something to eat?
Had Dominic really stayed until after lunch? He was such a disciplined guy–what on earth happened last night to make him lose half a day? Bella felt so embarrassed she wished she could just disappea ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
“No need, I’m going out soon. You don’t have to worry about me, she told Sylvia
in the shower, Bellanoticed her whole body was aching, She had scrapes and buses on her knees and elbows, but she wasn’t sure if they were from falling last night or something else. It looked like someone had alreadypotoniment on them.
she wasn’t Inexperienced, but the way her body felt was really confusing
After her shower, she nervously sent Dominic a message, “Did I do anything embarrassing last night after drinking too much?”
Ten minutes later, Dominic replied with a shon audio ellp
Bella’s fingers shook a little as she hit play, and she heard her own sure mixed with Dominic’s
How about you try being my girlfriend then just so you know, it’s not easy, Dominie said.
“Why don’t we just try it? if it doesn’t work out, Mincares? I’m sickur

bagh to make her cringe with embarrassment. She wished she could just disappear. How could she have said
What she didn’t know was that before these lines, she had said earn more daring things. It she knew, she’d probably want to hide under a rock
After feeling embarrassed, nella started to wonder why Dominic sent her the recording, Was he just trying to embarrass her more, or was there another reason?
She couldn’t figure it out, and the embarrassment made it hard for her to stay in the house. So, she quickly changed, went to the hospital to pick up her car, and then headed to Li’s sculpture studio.
