Chapter 84 about our past?
VICTORIA’S POV
I guess life isn’t as complicated as it may seem, at least not now. Or maybe, it won’t get complicated as
I thought it would.
After that night, when I met Dominic at the banquet, I realized that he might have been the person I
loved before, and because of him, I got closer to Alessandro. However, my love for Alessandro had not
faded but had grown stronger. Dominic’s presence did not change that at all.
He took me over and over again that night. In the car, back to the mansion, and kept going until the
mist of dawn started to settle outside.
I didn’t resist him. Understanding his anger, I would have probably acted the same way if I were in his
position.
One thing is certain, he loves and cares for me a lot. Even in that situation, when he was hurt and
letting his pain out, he did not hurt me in the process. He was cautious about the baby and me, making
me fall for him even more.
I remember confessing my love to him repeatedly because he forgot about Dominic at some point and
only got turned on by my ‘I love you, and I am yours only.’ I couldn’t help but smile at the thought.
But then again, even after this happy time, I am not really happy today, or, more precisely, for the last
two days.
Alessandro wasn’t home for the last two days, as he had to attend the new project meeting in Paris.
We both wished to go there together, but I couldn’t accompany him due to unfinished work at my office.
That’s why I am a little sad and bored. His presence always keeps me happy and encouraged.
Although we have been talking on FaceTime a lot for the past two days, having him next to me is
different. I miss him dearly, and I know our baby does too. I caressed my baby bump lovingly. I just
hope he comes sooner.
I leaned on my seat. My life started as the CEO of E.Shine, and Daniel is not my assistant anymore.
He is a designer, and I don’t want his talent wasted. So, he has been transferred to the design
department as the assistant designer, and I have hired another assistant. This time it’s a girl.
As I was leaning, my mobile phone vibrated with a text message. I immediately grabbed my phone and
watched the number, but to my dismay, it was not Aless but a strange number.
I swiped the text,
‘Hey Tori, it’s Dominic. Do you have time today?’
I stared at the text for some time, stunned by Dominic’s text. Well, I wasn’t expecting it.
Honestly, I am in a little hazy situation. Dominic was my first love, but he is my brother-in-law now.
Even before our love, we were good friends.
It’s been a long time since he knocked on me. Well, five years is not a short time. We have grown up,
and I guess things have changed a lot.
Should I meet him? Or I just let Aless know about it?
But then again, as long as I’m not doing anything wrong, there’s no reason I can’t see Dominic. I’ll just
tell Alessandro about it when he gets back.
I could ask him to come to my office. I guess it’s a safer option, given that I have more control there,
and even Ant is present. I hope everything goes smoothly.”NôvelDrama.Org owns this.
After almost ten minutes of thinking, I finally texted back,
‘Sure, I would be glad to meet you. I am free now, why don’t you come to my office? As you know, it’s a
hassle for me to move around.’
I didn’t know what his reply would be. If he agrees to come here, I am free to meet him without issues.
I tossed the phone around, and once again, my phone popped up with a text. I picked it up, and it was
Dominic.
‘On my way then.’
I once again tossed the phone on the table, leaning on my chair.
I should let Aless know, right?
Picking up my phone again, I called him, but he didn’t pick up. I suddenly recalled his words from our
conversation earlier today…
‘Baby, I will be in an important meeting soon and probably won’t be able to pick up the calls. I will call
you back once I am done, okay?’
I dropped my phone again. It seems like he is in a meeting right now. I can always inform him about
meeting Dominic later.

Soon, my new assistant, Stella, called in the intercom.
“Ma’am, Mr. Dominic Warren is here.”
“Yeah, send him in,” I said.
And a few seconds later, Dominic walked inside with his usual playful and charming smile.
When I see Alessandro and Dominic now, they no longer look the same to me. They have many
differences, and in my eyes, Alessandro stands out.
“Hey, beautiful,” he said, walking toward me, and I stood up.
He walked around my desk and hugged me, which was friendly and not uncomfortable.
“Hey, what’s up?” I asked, after breaking the hug and taking our sit on the sofa on the right side of my
office.
“So, how is it going on? All good?” Dominic asked.
I nodded honestly. “Yeah, everything is fine.”
He nodded, looking around. “So... CEO Victoria Edwards, huh? That’s good. You really gave us a good
shock. How is CEO life?”
I smiled and chatted with him as two old friends met after a long time. So far, there hasn’t been any
awkward conversation or gestures, at least not yet.
While talking, he suddenly leaned forward and looked up at me. “So... Does he know about us, Tori?
About our past? The relationship we shared?”
