Chapter 212
Dominick listened to his parents‘ conversation, his gaze unintentionally falling on Serena. Seeing her wrapped in the nanny’s coat, still looking cold a pang of pain tugged at his hear
Should he arrange for a better room for Serena as well? As he thought this, his legs carried him toward her without him realizing
Lauren saw this and was about to stop him. Then she remembered the words from the police and the others who had vouched for the nanny, so she closed her mouth and said nothing.
Considering the nanny’s dedication to saving Sonny, she decided to let Dominick help Serena.
“Maria, I’m feeling a bit sleepy. Serena felt her eyelids getting heavy and wanted to sleep.
Maria was worried that Serena might catch a cold if she fell asleep there, so she gently bounced her legs to keep her awake. “Rena. be good, don’t sleep yet. Once the doctor checks you out, we’ll go home, okay?”
The inter doctor overheard this and quickly said, “Yes, I’ll check on you soon. If everything’s fine, you can go home.”
Serena nodded, fighting off sleep and trying to keep her eyes wide open. Suddenly, everything went black in front of her, and when she looked up, she came face–to–face with the frowning Dominick.
Serena jumped in fright, the sleepiness almost entirely vanishing She leaned back against Maria, clutching her arm tightly. She really didn’t like Dominick. He was always so harsh every time he saw her mom.
Dominick noticed Serena’s aversion to him and his eyes darkened slightly. “Do you need me to arrange a room for you?”
Maria wasn’t about to accept any help from Dominick. “No need We’ll-”
Just then, Paisley called. Maria, holding Serena, couldn’t hold the phone to her ear, so she put it on speaker,
“Maria, how are you and Rena?” Paisley’s voice was trembling and choked with emotion, filling the area.
Dominick frowned again, feeling a tight knot in his chest. She was crying. She must have been scared.
It’s okay. Paisley. I’m here. Nothing will happen to them,’ Dominick thought.
“We’re fine, we’re fine, don’t worry, Maria quickly reassured Paisley, sensing her distress and wanting to calm her down so she wouldn’t worry herself into harm.
At that moment, the sound of a car horn blared from the phone. Maria was startled. “Paisy, are you driving?”
Dominick was also anxious, his heart racing. This was madness. How could she drive in this state? What if something. happened?
“Pai–Dominick was about to tell Paisley not to worry, that he was here to help. But before he could speak, a man’s voice came through the phone.
“Maria, don’t worry. She’s with me. I’m the one driving. We’ll be the hospital soon. You don’t need to worry
When Maria heard Max’s voice, she immediately relaxed, and a mile appeared on her face. “Oh, Max, if you’re with Paisy, I can relax. Take your time, no rush. Rena and I are fine.

“Alright.” Max’s voice was calm and reassuring. “Rena, talk to your mom. She’s really worried about you.”
Serena beard Max call her and immediately responded obediently. “Mommy, Rena’s waiting for you.”
“Okay Hearing from Rena made Paisley feel as though her hear was shattering.
“Maria. I’ll hang up now. She’s a bit unstable emotionally. We’ll be there soon.”
Maria nodded repeatedly, almost as though the person on the other end could see her, “Okay, Max, please keep an eye on
Mana ended the call and then noticed that Dominick hadn’t left yet. His face was terrifying, and even she felt a shiver looking at him.
“Max” Dominick asked in a low voice.
“Yeah, how did you know?” Maria asked, puzzled, though she quickly realized. Last time, when they were flying kites. Dominick and Max had met
Why is he with Paisley? Could they really be living together?
Maria’s expression carried a hint of provocation as she responded casually, “They live next door to each other. Isn’t that
normall
Yeah they were neighbors. Even though their villas were large, the distance was a bit far, but they were still next to each other. It was normal for neighbors to help each other, right?
Maria didn’t see any issue with what she said. In fact, she was quite pleased with herself. Especially after seeing Dominick’s face turn green with jealousy, she felt even more satisfied.
They live next to each other? For a moment, it felt as though millions of ants were gnawing at Dominick’s heart. The tearing sensation surged again and again, overwhelming him.
His Adam’s apple bobbed up and down, as if something was stuck in his throat. He felt nauseous but couldn’t throw up. He wanted to swallow, but it was impossible. Even breathing felt painful.
“Dominick we don’t need your help here. You just take care of your own son, Maria said casually, drawing a clear line. If Serena needed help, she would be there.
Dominick clenched his hands tightly at his sides, as though using all his strength to reply with a single word, “Okay.” He turned and walked away, his figure heavy with sorrow.
Maria watched him, and for a brief moment, felt some sympathy
No, why would she feel sorry for him? She remembered how he had treated Paisy. How many nights had Paisy been just as lonely as this?
“Ugh! Maria quickly shook off the thought, realirming that he was a jerk, unworthy of sympathy.
Because Grayson and Serena were in the same area, the call they just had could be heard by others in the vicinity. Naturally, the Vanderbilt family could hear it as well.
“Hal” Lauren sheered, “So Paisley is living with her lover, huh? Caly caring about that bastard’s illegitimate child, not even caring about Sonny”

“Mom, maybe she doesn’t know that Sonny is also hurt, Kayla explained.
“Shut up! Don’t defend her anymore!” Lauren was truly angry now. There was no longer any guilt in her heart for her. After all, in her eyes, nothing was more important than her grandson
Kayla pouted and said nothing further. Reginald patted Dominick on the shoulder but didn’t say anything.
Seeing the Vanderbilt family upset made Maria even happier.
At that moment, Serena tugged at her and spoke again, “Maria, I’m really so tired. I can’t wait for Mommy anymore. I just want to sleep,
