Vanessa "To be honest," Mia says, stopping in her tracks for a moment right before we head inside the store. "I'm surprised Patrick wants to see Dominic. How did he even manage to call? I thought he was blocked." "He obviously wasn't." I sigh.

"Hmm...what could he possibly want to talk about that's so urgent?" "Honestly, I can't think of anything else other thanbecause they have no business together. I'm actually starting to feel a little bad that on top of meeting Patrick, which wasn't planned for, he also needs to meet my management team to go through sfinancial data regarding my hair care line." She raises her eyebrows in confusion. "Wait, won't he be on a date with Carmella?" "He canceled it." "What? He really did that?" She yells.

I look around at the people passing by and smack her arm. "Can you keep it down?" "Sorry, I just wasn't expecting that, but damn! Won't that make her mad?" "It already did. She even exposed everything." "Then why do you look so calm?" She crosses her arms.

"Because Dominic toldnot to worry. He said everything will be fine." She tically holds onto my shoulders in panic. "And you believed him?" I smile a little. "I completely believed him. He didn't tellhow he did it, but because he didn't sound like he was panicking and toldnot to worry, it calmeddown." Mia places a hand on her chest. "Now, that's love right there." I chuckle. "No, it's just trust." "Con! You don't have to deny it." She teasesas we proceed inside.

"Hey, I need to ask you something," I say to her.

"What is it?" "Please don't be awkward with Dominic now that you know the truth. He's still the sman that you know." She bursts into laughter as she covers her mouth for a second. "How could I be awkward with the love of your life and prince charming?" I look away, shaking my head. "Will you teasenow every chance you get?" "Maybe I will. Maybe I won't. Hey, there are my heels!" She rushes over to the heels individually displayed on a rotating glass with excitement.

After shopping with Mia comes to an end, we return to town using my private jet and I head straight to my father's place.

To my pleasant surprise, my mother and father-in-law are with him, putting a smile on my face.

I sit right beside my father, who looks more pale than ever before and it breaks my heart, but he still tries to smile like everything's alright and even cracks as many jokes as he can.

As we all engage in conversation, I check my phone, still a little anxious that maybe whatever Carmella exposed has gone viral, but I then remind myself that Dominic promisedeverything was alright and I just need to believe him. It makeseven more curious about what it was that he did because not even anyone that I'm with right now seems to lash out in any way.

I pull myself together to enjoy the moment and just as I'm about to put my phone away, I send a message to Dominic, telling him that I'm hand his reply makesblush.

"Take care of yourself and our baby. You know I'm not there to do that right now but as soon as I'm back, I'll take care of you." I press my lips together to hold in my smile so I don't make it obvious to everyone, thinking about the routine he created forjust so I feel well taken care of.

Though I look forward to his return so he can take care ofthe way he's been doing, I'm extremely eager for him to tellwhat Patrick wants to discuss with him, even if it's about me.

Dominic On my way to meet Patrick, I keep glancing at my phone like I can see Frank, who can't stop laughing uncontrollably after finding out everything that happened with Carmella.

"Fuck!" he says from the other end of the line. "My ribs hurt! I wish I was there to see her face when she saw how calm you were even after she exposed everything. Will you ever tell her what you did?" "Why would I? It's better this way. Now I don't have to worry about her." "Well, you still have to worry about Shane." I tighten my grip on the steering wheel. "I know and it's getting on my nerves. I guess I'll have to pay up as usual even though I'm a week late and keep ignoring his texts and calls." "So, Mia's really on board with us now?" "Yeah and I keep wondering what it's going to be like the first tthat I speak to her now that she knows the truth." "I have to be honest with you, dude. Mia isn't so different from Vanessa when it comes to being bold. I'm sure she'll have a thing or two to say to you when she gets the chance." I nod in agreement. "That's why I won't be too surprised when that happens, but I don't mind because she already seems protective of Vanessa." "The sway you're protective of her?" He teases me.

"You know what? Fuck you." I abruptly end the call, thinking about how I'll do anything to protect Vanessa from anything and anyone that can hurt her and it's not just because she's pregnant. I've cto realize that these past few weeks.

I huff as I get closer to the meeting Patrick place with Patrick, wanting to do this quickly so can go hto her. She might've said she was alright, but know Carmella's words still hurt and I just want to make her feel better in the way that I've been doing lately.

Stepping out of the car, I start to look around in the park as I move around and quickly spot hing after look to the left. He casually a casually approacheswith his head high and hands in his pockets. The sight of him makesclench my fists as I'm reminded of him kissing Vanessa.

"I can't believe you actually came," he says with a smile and head tilted.

"Get straight to the point." I clench my jaw, looking at the few people around but at a distance. "You have some! nerve showing your face after what En: happened last tand the calls you made to my wife." He scoffs, still acting nonchalant and I still don't get why he's been this way. Shaking his head, he says, "If you're expecting that one of these days, you're actually going to get an apology out offor everything I've done, you're absolutely wrong."

I chuckle in disbelief, trying not to punch him in the face. "You sounded so convincing when you called and said this was very important, but if this is the shit that I cfor, I might as well leave. Fuck this." Just as I begin to walk back to my car while irritated, he says, "Wait, you can't leave just yet. Don't you want to know why I've been acting like this and why I'll never apologize for what did and said to Vanessa that day?" "Piss off," I say without looking back at him.

"It's because you're sleeping with another woman," he says, shockingand stoppingin my tracks.
