I Transmigrated and Got a Husband and a Son

Chapter 471 - 475

HAPTER 471: [Bonus chapter]Will he believe me?

No one knew how tiring and draining the past three days were for Dominic. The man barely slept, taking part in the investigation and the root of this abduction. Through these three days, Dominic could barely check on his family, all admitted to the hospital. The only person who wasn't admitted to the hospital was Grandma Zhu.

The irony.

'These past three days...' Dominic's train of thoughts trailed off as he gazed at his son, who was sleeping soundlessly on this quiet night. He slowly reached for Sebastian's hand, clasping it with gentleness and affection.

"I'm sorry, Basti," he whispered. "That your dad... is really pathetic."

The corner of his mouth curled up bitterly, closing his eyes as he rested his forehead on the back of his son's hand. Although Sebastian was out of harm's way, his son was injured heavily. The doctors told him it was good that Sebastian got treated immediately, and that Lionel shielded the boy from the accident. It didn't make Dominic less pathetic.

This all happened because of him.

This was not a part of self-pitying, but it was a fact. Some people wanted him dead, even when the investigation said otherwise.

"Hah..." Dominic raised his head, holding his son's hand to his cheek, eyes on Sebastian. "You will be okay."

He extended his other hand, brushing Sebastian's head gently. "We will be." He smiled, nodding at Sebastian reassuringly.

Dominic stayed in his son's own private ward for hours. This had been his bedroom. The only place he would stay before leaving to deal with stuff that needed to be dealt with.

Meanwhile, in Heaven's private ward, she sat on the bed with her back resting against the headboard. It had been three days since the abduction and ever since then, the only visitor she had was Axel. Axel was also a patient, but he wasn't injured and wasn't on bedrest just like her.

"Three days..." she mumbled to herself, staring at her fingers that were playing with each other. "... why hadn't he come?"

Heaven would receive news from Axel, giving her updates about anything he could get from outside. Since she was strictly advised to rest, she hadn't visited Sebastian. Therefore, Axel would come and go, almost splitting himself into two just to give his nephew and sister-in-law his time.

But Dominic never showed up to her.

Axel told her his brother was busy, but knowing her husband, he would make time for her. No matter how busy Dominic was, he would always make time for her. That was what the Dominic she knew.

'Am I just being needy?' she wondered, telling herself it was possible for Dominic to be so busy. Considering what happened and that his family was all admitted to the hospital, Dominic had to work hard to fix the mess that this incident created. But a part of her couldn't help but wonder if the reason he hadn't visited her was because of the truth.

The truth of how she could use guns and take enemies down so easily? And how she knew about Joker? There were more questions she was expecting from him. Thus, every second without a word from him increased her anxiety.

"Just... what is he thinking right now?" she whispered, perking up when she heard a knock on the door. Heaven instantly turned her head, eyes sparkling at the thought of Dominic finally coming. But alas, when Bear peeked his head in, the smile on her face faded.
