Crushed Affections (Dominic and Bella) novel Chapter 429

Bella fumed at her phone screen, grinding her teeth in frustration. Over an hour had passed, and she only got a single word in reply. It would've been better if Dominic hadn't replied at all!

Although she was still irritated, she compiled a list of the books she wanted and sent it to him, including the prices of each book. She transferred the total amount of money to him.

Dominic didn't respond or acknowledge the payment, and the screen remained frozen on the transfer notification.

On the day of her follow-up appointment, Dominic was already waiting downstairs, having arrived early.

Since the accident, Bella had been extra cautious. She walked carefully and took small steps, and Carla supported her, which she didn't refuse.

Carla took the front seat when they got in the car, and Bella sat in the safest spot—right in the back.

She had woken up early that day. So after she adjusted her position, she closed her eyes to catch some more rest. Dominic's voice suddenly cut through the silence. "The books are in the trunk. Don't forget to take them when we get back."

Bella checked her phone. She received a notification that Dominic had transferred the money back to her. She sent him another message, reminding him, "Please take the payment. I won't spend your money on anything unrelated to the baby."

Through the rearview mirror, Dominic glanced at her. "We'll talk about it after the baby is born."

Bella couldn't think of a counterargument. Did he believe that because she was pregnant with his child, he had to cover all her expenses since she wasn't working? The money he gave her each month was more than enough for her.

When they arrived at Horizon Hospital, Ian conducted Bella's check-up. Bella was quite familiar with the procedures at this hospital, and the check-up went quickly as she cooperated with the staff.

Ian remained casual and easygoing throughout, suggesting no significant issues.
