In other words, if Dominic really did like her, Aria would get the shock of her life. She pointed at mary john and said to dominic, “Dad is gone, you can go out with her!” After saying this, Aria Cross waved her hand and happily got ready to go upstairs. As soon as she stood up, she was met with Dominic’s burning gaze. She did not know that since they had returned home, dominic’s gaze had been fixed on her. “You helped me when we were at my family’s house, and now I’ve helped you as well. Dominic Cross, now we’re even!” Aria Cross explained everything clearly and happily continued walking upstairs. Dominic Cross watched her back until she disappeared. Mary john’s gaze had been fixed on dominic. When she saw that his gaze had been fixed on that woman, she was filled with envy, jealousy, and hatred. She pretended to be gentle as she tugged at the corner of dominic Cross’s shirt. “dominic, why did you come back so late?” Dominic asked, “Did you drink today?” Mary john saw that her sweetheart was being indifferent towards her and mistakenly thought that dominic Cross did not like her when she was drunk. She immediately shook her head. She promised, “No. Since you don’t like me drinking, I definitely won’t drink in the future.” Dominic Cross glanced at the empty stairs once again. He turned around and said to mary Cross, “Let’s chat.” Mary john shyly nodded and immediately followed him. Dominic led mary john to the balcony outside the old residence and ordered the servants to brew a pot of tea. He politely placed the teacup in front of mary john. Noticing dominic’s sudden politeness, mary john felt a little uneasy. She took the initiative to ask, “dominic, what do you want to talk about?” “Don’t waste your time on me. It’s been years. If I had feelings for you, we would have been together a long time ago. I only treat you with kindness. You are already at the age where you can get married. If there’s someone you like, you can try to get in touch with them.” dominic Cross’s tone was still a little restrained. He could not speak ill of the woman in front of him. Hearing dominic cross’s words, mary john’s tears silently flowed down. She did not say anything, and only looked at dominic Cross pitifully. Perhaps she was testing whether he had feelings for her or not. “You know about my situation. I’m married now. If you come to my house to look for me in the future, it won’t be good for you or her. If something urgent comes up, just call the landline.” dominic’s words were clear and straightforward. He meant to help mary john understand and he did not want to leave her with any confusion. Hearing that it would not be good for her, mary john cried even more fiercely. Her makeup was starting to run. “Are you referring to Aria Cross?” ...... Dominic did not reply. He only glanced at her. Mary reached out to grab his hand, but he picked up the teacup and dodged her grasp. She shook her head, crying, “It’s not like that, dominic. You said that you liked me. How can you say you were doing me a kindness? You didn’t hesitate to buy John Group for me. You even saved my father’s company. On your wedding night, you came to me instead of that woman.” “I never said that I liked you. You are deceiving yourself and others. Buying john Group was something that the company had spent half a year planning to do. Saving your father’s company was to thank him for his kindness to me back then. It wasn’t because of you that I didn’t accompany her on our wedding night,” dominic john said coldly. He did not like people who did not know their own limits. “No, it’s not like that. Didn’t you admit that you liked me that night? You loved me, Cross. You loved me.” mary john cried loudly, as if she wanted to get the rest of the Cross family’s attention. “I never talk to people who are completely drunk,” Dominic replied. Because mary john was drunk that day, dominic was not indulging her, nor was he tacitly admitting that he liked her. Rather, he did not like talking to drunk people. Dominic’s cup was empty now, and he had already said what he needed to say. He asked mary john to leave. “It’s hot outside, head home quickly!” After saying this, dominic got up and went back into the room. Mary john had not moved yet, but she had been crying. She was crying pitifully, and her tears were heartbreaking. Dominic sighed and slowly walked upstairs. Aria Cross was a little surprised to see him come back. “Didn’t you go on a date with her? Why are you back so soon?” dominic rolled his eyes at her and then went to the cloakroom. “Tsk, you rolled your eyes at me again. Do that some more and you’ll have only the whites of your eyes left,” Aria complained indignantly. In the courtyard, Sarah Cross had just returned from a shopping trip when she saw mary crying. She ordered the servants to take her things back to the bedroom and then walked towards mary.
