The Windfalls of Love novel Chapter 333

Evelyn's mood took a nosedive when Dominic’s expression suddenly turned stormy. But she was used to his stony face; it didn't faze her anymore.

She was curious though, “You don’t like kids, huh? I saw how much you doted on my niece Angela, thought you were a real kid person. I was even thinking about having a bunch of babies with you in the future.”

She had seen Dominic pampering Angela like the world’s best dad.

How could he not like kids?

Evelyn was puzzled.

The thought of having children was fraught with shadows and resistance for Dominic.

He once thought he’d marry Roxanne, raise Angela together, and then never have any more kids. He even considered getting a vasectomy after the wedding.

But a few days before the marriage license was signed, Dominic had an epiphany.

Holding on to a woman who felt only gratitude towards him, not love, was selfish.

He couldn't delay Roxanne’s happiness just because he was smitten with her. Harrison was the man who could truly make Roxanne happy, so he stepped aside.

Evelyn didn't understand his aversion to kids.

“Not wanting kids, but babies are so cu—”

She couldn’t finish the word “cute” as Dominic cut her off sharply, “Ladies should keep some reserve. Don’t go offering to bear children at the drop of a hat.”

“Dominic, did I overstep today? Did I say too much and upset you?” Evelyn suddenly became cautious.

Though she was a carefree and playful girl, her emotional barometer was tuned to Dominic’s moods.

His sudden seriousness, his darkened brow, it hurt her.

Dominic didn’t answer directly.

Instead, he turned away, “I’ll get you breakfast.”

After breakfast, Dominic consulted with the doctor about Evelyn's medication and took meticulous notes.

When he returned, he saw Evelyn on the phone with a company executive, her tone stern and fierce, a stark contrast to the demure woman she was around him.

A heiress from a top-tier family, the center of attention, the darling of high society.

Many men more accomplished than him couldn't win her heart.

Yet there she was, wanting nothing more than to be his lady.

The sentiment felt too heavy for Dominic to bear.

Back at the Dawson estate, after Hazel returned to Seraphim Haven, she faced her parents, Hamlin and Emily Dawson.

Last night, after seeing their grandson Kent for the first time, the elderly couple softened. Despite Hazel’s scandalous affair that sullied the Dawson name, leading them to cast her out and sever ties, the sight of Kent melted their resolve.

At breakfast, Hamlin and Emily couldn’t take their eyes off him.
