Chapter 332
Vespera reached out to open the door. She froze as soon as the doorbell rang.
In the dining room, even Dominic's expression had darkened.
Vespera had no choice, so she reached for the handle and opened the door.
Benjamin stood outside, looking as handsome as ever. He was tall and skinny, and his glasses made him look intellectual.
"Long time no see, Vespera." Benjamin's eyes lit up at the sight of Vespera, whom he hadn't seen for years. She was far more beautiful than ever.
Vespera politely returned his smile. "Indeed. It's been a long time."
Behind her, Rebecca was thinking about how the situation had turned into a disaster.
Dominic stopped drinking his wine. He stood up leisurely and bade goodbye to Vernon. "Mr. Gildon, thanks for inviting me. Remember to let me know once the orchids have bloomed."
"I will. Definitely." Vernon also felt awkward. He never expected that Helen and Benjamin would drop by right now.
Dominic walked steadily out of the dining room. After saying goodbye to Wanda, he strode toward the door.
As Rebecca watched him heading in their direction, she felt as if her heart was about to leap out of her throat.
Meanwhile, Vespera and Benjamin were still standing by the door. After remarking how long it had been since they last saw each other, they awkwardly asked how the other had been.noveldrama
Suddenly, they felt a dark cloud loom over them.
"She's been doing quite well lately. She has such a good appetite and has been sleeping well." Dominic stood behind Vespera as he answered on her behalf, and she dared not look back at him.
Benjamin was clearly disappointed, having seen Dominic walking in his direction earlier. "I'm glad you're doing well."
Vespera said hurriedly, "Becca and I have something to do, so we'll be leaving now. Let's talk some other day."
With that, she turned back and yelled for Rebecca, who walked out immediately. After greeting Benjamin hastily, she and Vespera dashed off—and Dominic trailed after them.
Benjamin stood at the door for a while. Once Vespera had gone into the elevator, he finally entered the Gildons' home.
Benjamin was clearly disappointed. Vespera, whom he always had feelings for, had a boyfriend again. However, he still brought his gifts into the house and sat down to chat with Helen and the others.
"That man isn't Vera's boyfriend. He's just her boss. Don't be disheartened." Helen encouraged Benjamin.
"Isn't that man her boyfriend?" Benjamin looked up at Wanda. He wanted her to confirm Helen's statement while gauging her attitude.
As long as Wanda was on his side, he still had hope and could pursue Vespera.
For a moment, Wanda was troubled. Honestly, she really did like Dominic. But the truth was, he came from a wealthy family.
"Wanda, I can tell that the man is from a rich family. Didn't you tell me how much Vera had suffered before? Do you really want her to go through those hardships again? Let me tell you-our families are much more compatible," Helen said. Cóntent
"That's true..." After hearing Helen out, Wanda became more conflicted than ever.
In the elevator, Vespera couldn't even look at Dominic at all. Even Rebecca found the atmosphere rather tense and terrifying.
Once the elevator doors slid open, Rebecca dashed out without hesitation. She had a feeling Dominic was about to explode.. Although it wasn't right of her to run,

there.
"Becca!" Vespera wanted to reach for Rebecca, but she felt Dominic grab her by the waist instead.
