His Mistress is His Ex-Wife

Chapter 350: Feeling Betrayed

"Sab, where have you been? Everyone has been worrying about you. I called Lanny, and she told me you were not with her," Vladimir asked in a frantic voice. He quickly grabbed her shoulders, scanning her from head to toe.

After meeting Dominique, Sabrina returned home. She ran into Vladimir at the gate. He was supposed to leave and find her since she wasn’t answering his call.

Sabrina’s mind had been preoccupied ever since she left Dominique’s apartment. She didn’t notice Vladimir’s phone calls.

Not wanting to lie anymore, Sabrina told him the truth.

"I went to see Dominique."

Vladimir fell silent the moment he heard that, his expression turning ashen. ’She met him alone!’

"Don’t worry, V. He had just given me my freedom. Here," Sabrina explained, handing the divorce agreements to him.

He was taken aback upon seeing the signed document. It was real! Dominique finally let Sabrina go.

"Everything is fine now. Let’s go inside, V. I’m just a little bit tired." Sabrina’s lips curled up, yet her smile didn’t reach her eyes.

Even if she didn’t want to talk about it, Vladimir could sense that something was off.

’What happened? What did they talk about? Why does she look sad? Is it because of Dominique?’

Vladimir’s heart tightened at that thought. But he immediately erased those negative thoughts, pushing them to the back of his mind. He shouldn’t be doubting Sabrina.

Upon entering the house, Sabrina headed to her room. Enzo and Vladimir just watched her in puzzlement.

"What happened?" Enzo asked Vladimir curiously.

Vladimir clenched his fists. "She met Dominique. He gave her the signed divorce agreement."

"Oh! That’s good news! We can push through the wedding this week! You can submit that document tomorrow and register your marriage," Enzo said in his elated voice.

Vladimir just nodded. For some reason, Sabrina’s downcast look made him inexplicably uneasy.

"Enzo, I have a favor to ask."

Enzo blinked in amusement. "Sure, brother-in-law, just tell me."

"Go and talk to Sabrina on my behalf. I know she can open up to you. It seems like she is troubled by something. For now, I have to leave."

"Okay, V. Just leave this to me. I’ll check on her upstairs."

When Vladimir left the penthouse, Enzo proceeded to Sabrina’s room. He knocked on her door twice.

"Sab, can I enter?"

Sabrina opened the door for her brother. The moment Enzo stepped inside, she immediately hugged him tightly.

He was surprised when Sabrina acted that way. He just confirmed it. She was burdened by something.

"Hey, Sab... are you alright? Is there something wrong?" He gently rubbed her back, comforting her.

The moment she heard her brother’s words, she broke down in tears.

"Brother... Our Dad... he is innocent. He is not a bad guy... He was not the one who ordered to kill Dominique’s family."

Enzo was startled.

"Is it true, Sab? Who told you this?"

Sabrina pulled from the hug and nodded. "Dominique told me everything tonight. The real mastermind was Uncle Alfonso... he impersonated our father, making it look like our father did the crime. The man who kidnapped me is our uncle’s underling. He already confessed after being tortured by Dominique and Don Miguel."

A cold glint flashed through Enzo’s eyes. "I’m glad our father’s name has been cleared. But I didn’t expect that our uncle would be so evil. He committed a crime... He must be punished for that!"

Sabrina nodded in agreement.

Enzo smiled and cupped her face, his fingers wiping away her tears. "So tell me... why are you crying? You should be happy because our Dad was innocent."

Sabrina bit her lower lip as she looked down. "Dominique... it seems that he is going to stay away from us. He is consumed by guilt... for getting revenge on the wrong person. He promised not to bother us anymore..."

"I know... I should hate him for hurting our family because of his mistake. But deep inside, I knew that he was also a victim of our uncle’s deception. His hatred is valid. He lost his family... so I can’t bring myself to hate him..."

Enzo listened to her attentively. He could also relate to her feelings. After knowing Dominique’s tragic past, his resentment toward him just disappeared. He could understand the reason why Dominique wanted revenge. If he were in his shoes, he would also do the same thing.

"Don’t worry, Sab. I will do my best to help him get justice for his family. We have to settle this score with Alfonso. He must be punished."

Sabrina just nodded, still feeling the emptiness in her heart.

"Where’s Aaron? I want to see him..." She felt the need to see Aaron. He was the only person left... connecting her to Dominique.

"He is in his room, probably taking a nap. He got exhausted after playing around the school."

Sabrina headed to Aaron’s room. Enzo could only watch her retreating back.

’I wonder if my sister is feeling down because Dominique has decided to stay away from us. Why do I feel like my sister still has feelings for him? Is she trying to hide and deny her feelings for Dominique because... she feels indebted to Vladimir? I am worried that my sister is marrying Vladimir out of obligation, not because of love...’

Enzo took a deep sigh as he had conflicting thoughts right now. He didn’t know how he would confront Sabrina about this.

Furthermore, he didn’t want to meddle in her decision. At the end of the day, she was the one who would choose between Vladimir and Dominique. He just hoped, whatever her decision was, she would end up being happy. No more regrets.

*****

Meanwhile, at Vladimir’s place...

Vladimir summoned Luna, his loyal subordinate. Even if Miguel disowned him, Luna continued serving him as her master.

"Give me a detailed update on your task. What did you find out?"

Luna glanced at him worriedly. She hesitated to report what she discovered.

"Why are you silent? Tell me everything!" He commanded, his voice sharp and cold.

Luna exhaled deeply before breaking her silence.

"Boss, Miss Sabrina has been meeting Dominique secretly in the past few days. There was also a moment where Miss Sabrina brought young master Aaron with her as the three of them hung out on the beach..."

Crash!

A cup shattered at Luna’s feet. Vladimir threw it after hearing her reports.

Luna immediately dropped to her knees as he apologized to Vladimir. She knew she had offended him.

Vladimir’s eyes were bloodshot, veins popping on his forehead and neck. He was furious.

"Scram!" He yelled, dismissing Luna.

Afraid for her life, Luna bolted out of his room. She felt that if she stayed there, she would end up being killed by her own master.

The next thing she heard was Vladimir’s sardonic laughter. He was laughing like a madman. His body shook uncontrollably in anger.

’Why? Why did she do that?’ Vladimir asked himself.

He still couldn’t believe that Sabrina kept meeting Dominique behind his back. It was a great shock to him. He felt betrayed by the woman he loved.

’What should I do, Sabrina? Why do I feel like I am still not enough for you?’

Soon, tears started falling from the corners of his eyes. Vladimir had cried, feeling betrayed and heartbroken.
