ya couldn’t help but feel puzzled, struggling to comprehend the implications behind this unexpected message.

In response, Maya hastily turned her phone face down on the table, mustering a forced smile.
“It’s nothing, just a bit of discomfort in my stomach. I probably ate something bad in the afternoon. ” she explained.
“Let Dr. Levin take a look at you. Fortunately, it’s just a stomachache. I was concerned, thinking Dominic might have said something to upset you!”
“No, Dominic just mentioned he’s too busy to join for dinner. He asked if I had eaten and advised me to rest early to prepare for tomorrow’s engagement.”
Suppressing her anger, Maya continued to craft a carefully constructed narrative.
Holding her phone, she rose from her seat, saying, “Mrs. Barrett, I need to use the restroom.
Please go ahead and eat. You don’t have to wait for me.”

“Even if I choose to marry Timothy, I will forever be a part of the Lane family. Please, don’t cast me aside!”
Hearing the sadness and vulnerability in Maya’s voice, Dominic couldn’t help but feel a pang of sympathy.
Thinking about Mia’s past hardships, he gently refused, stating, “It’s not about pushing you away. If you ever want to come back in the future, you’re always welcome.”
“Dominic, may I ask why you’ve suddenly decided to terminate my adoption? Is it because of my upcoming marriage?”
