Chapter 271

Once Shelia became Mrs.

Perry, she’d be stepping into high society for real.

That was when the wealth would come pouring in.

As long as he remained in Shelia’s employ and held something over her, he could keep requesting money from her without end…

Chayce appeared to have caught a glimpse of the splendid life ahead.

He sneered.

“Alright, I’ll cut you a deal.

”

Domenic didn’t let go of Lindsey’s hand all the way home.

Lindsey turned to Domenic, her expression playful yet expectant.

Entering the living room, “Mr.

Walsh, don’t you think it’s time you explained yourself?”

At this moment, Domenic had shed his black coat, leaving only a light blue shirt and a black tie underneath.

“Where do I begin?” Domenic mused, feigning thoughtfulness.

Lindsey perched on the couch, arms folded across her chest, legs elegantly crossed.

She sat up straight and fixed her gaze on him, resembling more of an interrogator.

However, in her black dress and hair slightly disheveled, she Looked adorable and alluring.

“Let’s start with my post about ‘a boyfriend-for-hire’.

”

“Well…” Domenic, touching his nose, approached Lindsey and crouched before her, taking her hand gently.

“What if I told you it was just a coincidence? Would you believe me?”

“What do you think?” Lindsey purposely hushed her tone and gave a slight frown.

The man she had a casual encounter with had been picked from a crowd, a chance slimmer than winning the lottery.

How could she possibly believe it was a mere coincidence?

“Okay, I’ll admit it.

” Domenic let out a sigh.

“I had my boss look into your background.

I was just curious about who I’d been intimate with and left me a fortune before Leaving.

”

“Well…” Lindsey’s cheeks flushed.

She hadn’t thought it through and didn’t know who he was.

Fearful of the implications, she had left money and fled.

“My boss found out your post online, and well… you know the rest of the story.

”

“Ever since then, you knew the connection between us… Then why did you keep it from me? Why didn’t you tell me?” Lindsey pouted and felt a tad annoyed.

If he had spilled the beans earlier, she wouldn’t have been torn between her thoughts for so long.

“I apologize.

I had my selfish reasons.

I wanted to understand why you entered a stranger’s room and what kind of person you are.

You appeared rather expert at leaving compensation after our encounter.

”

Lindsey extended her leg and kicked him, leaving a tiny footprint on those finely tailored trousers.

“That was my first time.

” After uttering those words, Lindsey’s cheeks flushed instantly.

How could she have said that out loud? She nibbled her Lip and continued, “But you, Mr.

Walsh, you didn’t appear to be a first-timer that night.

So, spill the beans, how many wealthy women have you been with?”

When Lindsey’s words left her lips, Domenic pushed her against the sofa’s backrest.

His towering figure closed in on her, enclosing her within his powerful arms.

“Miss Stewart, if you utter another word to tarnish my reputation, I’ll silence your chatter for good.

”

Lindsey quickly covered her mouth with her hand.

Domenic’s smile returned.

“But think about it, do you believe you could buy my first time for less than five hundred dollars? You are being quite frugal, aren’t you?”
