I was already upset about missing out on the Nicholas Scott incident today, and seeing Dominic Hartnell's indifferent attitude only made me more unhappy. If he wasn't driving, I would definitely make a scene. But I'm not afraid of what he can do to me now. I have confidence and courage. Dominic Hartnell showed great tolerance and understanding towards my temper, and even initiated a conversation with me. We discussed today's hot topic, Nicholas Scott's announcement of quitting the entertainment industry. I was instantly shocked, something didn't seem right. I even nervously rolled down the car window and looked outside for a long time. Just to check if the sun rose from the west this morning.As soon as he mentioned Nicholas Scott, several alarm bells went off in my head. This is so unusual, completely different from his usual style. I'm wondering if there's a hidden bomb waiting for me. After experiencing so much, I understand very well that Mr. Han is easily jealous. But the alarm bells were just ringing, they didn't stop my desire to talk to Dominic Hartnell about this matter. I know it's because I feel so guilty now. Especially after meeting Scarlett Williams and hearing what she said, I feel a deep sense of apology towards Nicholas Scott. I'm wondering why I didn't notice Nicholas Scott's abnormality earlier, why I didn't stop the problem before it grew. I don't even know what I said myself, but in the beginning, I was having a normal conversation with Dominic Hartnell, and later on, I just kept talking non-stop. Surprisingly, Dominic Hartnell showed rare patience, not getting angry, not interrupting me, and not getting upset. It wasn't until my throat started to hurt from talking too much that I finally took a breath and stopped, only to realize that Dominic Hartnell had parked the car in front of a convenience store. Like a timely rain, he gently asked me what I wanted to drink and went to buy it. I asked for banana milk, I've been obsessed with it lately, and also asked him to buy some snacks. Dominic Hartnell acted quickly and in no time, he came back to the car with a big bag of things. He first took out a box of milk, inserted a straw, and handed it to me. I took a sip and gulped it down. The sweet and smooth sensation instantly moisturized my dry throat. "Are you still unhappy now?" Dominic Hartnell said as he took out a bag of teddy bear cookies from his bag and opened it, feeding them to me. I opened my mouth and took a bite, then replied a bit muffled, "Well, I'm not really unhappy, just feeling uncomfortable." "Your future was clearly a bright path, but now you're quitting acting. I feel like I've caused Nicholas Scott's downfall," Dominic Hartnell calmly smoothed my hair and fed me the cookies in an orderly manner. At the same time, he couldn't help but say with a disgusted look on his face, "What does it have to do with you? Love and relationships have always been based on mutual consent. If he likes you and you don't like him, can you be blamed for it?" "He didn't seize the rare opportunity to win you over, it's his own incompetence." "He's a grown man in his thirties, giving up his career over such a trivial matter and sinking into self-destruction. That's his cowardice." As he finished speaking, Dominic Hartnell hooked his finger and lifted my chin, smiling with his eyes and eyebrows."Wife, comparing like this, do you realize that your husband, me, is so amazing and perfect that he can leave him far behind?" My mind clicked, and at that moment, I really wanted to roll my eyes at Dominic Hartnell. Enough is enough, how can he casually belittle Nicholas Scott while speaking so naturally? And what does he mean by that? In his eyes, am I only worth so little? I raised my hand and slapped away the cookie he was trying to feed me again, asking in an annoyed tone, "What would you do if you were in his shoes? Would you just continue to eat, drink, work, and make money as if nothing happened, living your life as usual?" Dominic Hartnell put the cookie into his own mouth with his other hand, then swiftly grabbed the back of my head and pressed his mouth against mine, transferring the cookie from his mouth to mine. The cookie became incredibly soft and moistened with his saliva, almost sliding down my throat as soon as I tasted it. Damn, this rogue is shamelessly bold, making my face turn red and my heart race. Dominic Hartnell pressed his thumb against my lips, silencing me. He murmured, "If it were me, nothing would matter compared to you. I would do everything in my power to pursue you and make you mine. Just like now, legally, as my wife, Dominic Hartnell." "Others can only sigh with envy, no matter how much they desire you." "As for Nicholas Scott, you don't need to feel guilty or sorry for him. It may sound cruel, but who made him the one who couldn't receive love." I don't know if it was the last sentence from Dominic Hartnell that touched a nerve, but tears suddenly welled up in my eyes. Dominic Hartnell gently wiped them away and held my face, kissing me repeatedly. "I would be angry if you cried for another man... I would also feel heartbroken. I can't bear to see you cry for me." It was just a momentary feeling, and I quickly stopped the tears. After a few sobs, I slowly said, "So... I really can't do anything for Nicholas Scott?" Dominic Hartnell pulled me into his arms and gently patted my back. "He made his own decision, chose his own path. We are just outsiders, what can we do to help?" "Besides, Nicholas Scott is not a child. Maybe you feel sad because of his current decision, but how do you know he doesn't have other plans?" "Listen to me, the only thing you can do now is to do nothing." Regardless of whether Dominic Hartnell's words were right or wrong, he convinced me. Indeed, Nicholas Scott is not a child. He should know what is best for himself. Moreover, Nicholas Scott has Jake and Scarlett Williams by his side, and Monica Cross is worried about him. He won't just recklessly abandon everything. Maybe he really has other arrangements. After calming down, my mood improved significantly, and I went home with Dominic Hartnell. In the following two days, I occasionally checked Weibo. After all, the news of Nicholas Scott's retirement from the entertainment industry was still a hot topic. However, on the third day at noon, a new piece of news quickly took over the top spot on the trending list and caused a huge storm online.
