Chapter 247
Heartbreak Brings Mr. Right
Lindsey acknowledged his gesture with a subtle smile of her own.
Vincent then addressed the crowd, âI hold Selah in high esteem, and Iâm thrilled about her return.
Despite stepping away from showbiz for five years, Iâm confident sheâll outshine her previous achievements and attain even greater success!â
The room fell silent for a brief moment before bursting into rousing applause.
Vincentâs public commendation for Selah set a firm groundwork for her promising future.
As the party came to an end, many guests raised their glasses in Selahâs honor, and several heads of entertainment companies made lucrative offers to sign her.
However, Selah graciously turned them all down.
Her choice was clear; Lindsey was the only agent she wanted After a few glasses of wine, Selah started feeling lightheaded.
She gently pulled Lindsey aside and said, âLindsey, Iâm not feeling great.
I think itâs time to head out.
â
Lindsey glanced at her watch and agreed, âYes, itâs getting late.
Iâll accompany you.
â
They bid farewell to Vincent and his wife.
As they were about to depart, Sumner hurried over, blocking their path.
âLet me give you a ride home.
â
Selah, noting Sumnerâs offer and Lindseyâs moment of hesitation, smiled and said, âThat would be nice, thank you, Mr.
Lawson.
â
âPlease, just call me Sumner.
Hang on here for a moment; Iâll bring my car around.
â
With that, Sumner headed to the parking lot.
Selah had a favorable opinion of this cheerful and laid-back young man.
Most notably, he always gazed at Lindsey with unreserved affection.
Leaning towards Lindsey, Selah whispered, âSumner seems Like a great catch.
Heâs attractive, has a pleasant personality, and as Paigeâs godson, he could be a great asset to you in the future.
Maybe you should consider a relationship with him?â
Lindsey met Selahâs gaze with her own kind, clear eyes and replied, âYouâre teasing me, Selah.
Sumner is indeed wonderful man, but Iâm not the right one for him.
So-â
âWho says youâre not right for him?â Selah cut in, âYouâre worthy of the very best! And if heâs not your type, Iâll help you let him down gently.
â
As soon as she finished her words, a blue sedan stopped in front of them.
The window was rolled down, and Sumner smiled brightly at them.
âReady to leave, ladies?â
Exchanging a glance, Lindsey and Selah fell silent and climbed into the car.
Accepting Sumnerâs offer for a ride home was not so bad.
The car pulled up at Selahâs residence.
After bidding farewell to Lindsey and Sumner, Selah stepped out of the car and made her way toward her rented apartment.
Suddenly, the effects of the alcohol kicked in, causing her to lose balance and sway to the side.
But a large hand promptly clasped her shoulders, preventing her from falling.
Her body collided with the broad chest of a man, and the Luxurious fabric on him felt cool against her heated skin.
Looking up, Selah met the captivating gaze of Arturo, his handsome face never failed to stir her emotions.
