Chapter 395 What Do You Want Simon didn't use the money to start a company. Instead, he used it on stock gambling. He ended up losing every single cent in a short amount of time.

The pitiful state he was in was also a made-up front. He was still married. His wife's family still had a property that was worth more than a million dollars. The deed was currently in the hands of his father-in-law. In conclusion, he was choosing to leech off of Bella despite having somewhere else to go.

More than two hours later, the surgery was complete. Simon was escorted back to his hospital ward. Dominic arranged for him to stay in a private ward. He even got him a private nurse and paid for all the expenses.

Simon was pretending to be asleep when Dominic exposed him. "Since it was a minor procedure, they only gave you local anesthesia. Let's talk." Simon unwillingly opened his eyes and averted his gaze. "What's there to talk about? My wife is asking for a divorce, but I'm refusing. She'll be takingto court soon. I'm suffering enough as it is. Yet she's choosing to add insult to injury. I hate to look for Bella, but I want to live..." Dominic scoffed. "There are plenty of ways for you to live, yet you decided to doom yourself. When I gave you 1.5 million dollars, I told you to never show yourself in front of Bella ever again. You've gone back on your word." Simon inhaled sharply. "I'm her father!" Simon was right. Since he was Bella's father, Dominic couldn't just get rid of him.

Unwilling to waste any ton him, Dominic asked, "What do you want? What's it going to take for you to disappear from her life forever?" Simon didn't respond immediately. It seemed like he was analyzing Dominic and testing the waters.

Two minutes felt like an eternity. After careful deliberation, Simon said cautiously, "After I went bankrupt, my wife's family has been looking down onand forcingto get a divorce. I'd like a chance to regain my dignity and be self-reliant..." His implications were clear. He wanted something better than 1.5 million dollars.

Dominic's lips curved up in a mocking smile. "I have a small company overseas. It should involve your area of expertise. I hope you can take up the offer within hala year and leave this country for good." o Simon's eyes lit up in glee. A company of any size under Dominic's nwas a huge bargain. This offer was better than he had expected.

Before he could celebrate any further, Dominic added, "Oh, right. I forgot to tell you. The aftereffects of your injury are pretty severe. You'll have a bad limp and your leg will. ache quite often. There's no chance it'll heal completely. I've already settled your medical bills. hope you'll be able to manage yourself from now onward." Simon inhaled sharply. Dominic was handling this very well.

Simon was aware that this was the last the would ever be able to benefit through Bella.

After leaving the hospital, Dominic didn't return home. Instead, he headed straight to the company. He had just taken a seat in his office when Bella called him.

He felt pathetic. If it weren't for Simon, she probably wouldn't have contacted him.

"I'm at the office," he picked up and said in a calm tone.

Upon hearing this on the other end of the phone, Bella instinctively om assumed he was busy Hence, she she decided to get straight to the point.

"How did you settle the issue with Simon?"

Dominic was honest. "I gave him a small company and sent him overseas. He'll probably be gonem within! the next few days. He's been putting on a front all this time." Bella fell silent for a moment. Then, she said, "Thank you. Sorry for all the trouble once again."

He had gotten sick of her formalities a long tago. Frustrated and m annoyed, he hung up the phone.
