Heartbreak Brings Mr. Right

After what seemed Like an eternity, Lindsey’s voice finally broke the silence, saying in a hoarse voice, “I’m sorry, Sumner.

This mistake was mine.

I overlooked how you felt.

”

Sumner’s voice softened as he responded, looking into her eyes, “Lindsey, I’m sorry too.

I didn’t mean to be harsh.

I just really hoped… you’d show a little more consideration for me.

”

With a bittersweet smile, Lindsey replied, “I’ll stay out of your matters with Xiomara from now on.

As your agent, I’ll focus solely on my responsibilities.

However, as my client, I hope you’ll consider the company’s and your own future before making any rash decisions.

”

Sumner remained silent, then quietly started the car.

The drive back to Lindsey’s apartment was enveloped in silence.

Meanwhile, in an office situated in a skyscraper in Mubluosia, Arturo relaxed with his legs crossed, reclining on a couch.

Next to him, a man with an unreadable look was on a call, glass of wine in hand.

“Boss, your grandpa changed the engagement celebration to a standard gathering, and Carole left ahead of schedule,” Hendrix informed him respectfully.

“The reporters you had arranged for in advance all showed up and asked the questions just as you instructed.

Miss Larson just evaded their questions and left.

”

The corners of the man’s mouth lifted into a satisfied grin as he took in the news and then ended the call.

Having spent the entire day at Domenic’s side, Arturo was fully aware of his actions.

With a light laugh, Arturo said, “Domenic, don’t you think you’re going a bit overboard? Embarrassing that woman to such an extent- it seems quite harsh, doesn’t it?”This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Domenic glanced at Arturo with a cold look and said, “If you’re so concerned about her, why not marry her and spoil her yourself? I can arrange it with my grandpa tomorrow.

”

Arturo quickly shook his head and gestured with his hands in denial.

“No, no, I didn’t mean that, alright?”

Only then did Domenic back down, his expression growing more intense.

Arturo, with a touch of concern, questioned, “But aren’t you worried this might upset your grandpa? What’s your plan for explaining this to him when we return?”

Domenic looked at him, calm and seemingly indifferent.

“This engagement was a sham to begin with.

If she had cooperated, none of this would have happened.

”

Because Carole had once saved him, Domenic harbored an inexplicable trust in her.

This led him to accept a pretend engagement with her under the pressure from his grandfather, aiming to secure shares of the Walsh Group.

However, his informants reported that Carole had sought out Lindsey at her workplace and even took her ring shopping for the engagement.

And it was clear to Domenic that the ring Carole selected was the one Lindsey had shown interest in.

Carole’s actions, getting close to Lindsey and secretly buying the ring she liked, made Domenic question her intentions.

Recalling Carole’s revelation to Lindsey about the red diamond, which cast him in a dubious light, Domenic saw that Carole was not as simple and innocent as she seemed.

Therefore, he opted to change his approach and just see where things would lead him, eager to uncover the real plot Carole had up her sleeve.

Before the party, Domenic got his hands on the list of guests and discreetly placed his informants among them.

He made a quick trip to Mubluosia during the night to make sure he wouldn’t be easily found, especially by his grandpa who was known for his keen tracking skills.

As soon as Lindsey stepped into the banquet hall, the puzzle of Carole’s plan became clear to Domenic.
