Chapter 159
Heartbreak Brings Mr. Right
Youâll see in time.
â
Kristy laughed a little, sidled up to Lindsey, and leaned in close.
Her whisper was smooth yet unsettling.
âDonât bother trying so hard.
Iâm already set to be the lead lady of Vincentâs next film.
â
Kristy knew from Jayleen that Lindsey was eyeing the lead roles in Vincentâs upcoming movie, but she wasnât concerned.
The role required riding skills, which Kristy had been learning just for this.
She was sure Lindsey was practicing for the same reason.
Yet it seemed Lindsey wasnât backing down.
She really was in over her head.
Lindsey just smiled thinly and said with a steady confidence, âWeâll see about that.
â
Kristyâs expression turned sour.
She released Lindseyâs arm and shot a glance at Domenic.
His gaze was gently fixed on Lindsey, ignoring Kristy entirely.
Kristyâs irritation grew.
She was an acclaimed actress, superior in both looks and talent compared to this agent.
Yet, the more harder a man was to get, the more she found him intriguing.
Kristy envisioned the day this man would fall for her.
With this thought, she masked her annoyance with Lindsey, offering a forced smile.
âSince weâve bumped into each other, why not practice together?â
But Lindsey just tilted her head and massaged her neck.
âIâm sorry, Iâm quite exhausted.
Thatâs enough practicing for me today.
Please feel free to continue.
I wonât get in your way.
â
Following that, Lindsey grasped Domenicâs hand and they began to leave.
Domenic smiled subtly, encircling her hand with his, fingers interlaced.
This was the real intimacy between a couple.
Kristy watched them, envy evident as she almost bit through her lip in frustration.
Kristyâs assistant was in disbelief, having never witnessed Kristy being upstaged.
This agent called Lindsey was just too good.
She was not only eloquent but also had a strong aura.
Lindsey and Domenic walked hand in hand, Domenic marveling at the softness of her hand.
It made him want to keep holding it forever.
Once they were out of Kristyâs view, however, Lindsey let go of his hand abruptly.
With a snort, Lindsey said, âMr.
Walsh, youâre quite lucky today, running into Kristy.
Sheâs a top actress and seems really into you.
Youâre not upset I didnât let you two chat longer, are you?â
Domenic responded with a smile, âAre you feeling jealous?â
Lindsey was caught off guard and glared at him after a moment.
âIâm considering your future.
If Kristy takes a liking to you, it could open doors for you.
You wouldnât need to work for others or pretend to be someoneâs boyfriend for the day.
â
Domenic gently held her shoulders, her riding attire still on, and steered her against the wall.
He positioned his hand beside her, effectively blocking her.
âLindsey, are you saying that I can be sort of kept man?â
