Chapter 297

Lindsey’s racing heart found solace in this tender embrace.

She extended her arms and hugged him.

“Are you… Are you okay today?” Lindsey sensed that something was amiss today.

Not only had he ki*sed her passionately, but he was also unusually clingy.

Domenic held her even closer as if he intended to merge her into his own body.

“Lindsey.

”

His deep, soothing voice echoed softly in her ears.

“You belong to me… From now on, stay away from those wicked men.

”

Hearing his words, Lindsey understood that he must have seen today’s trending topics.

He was jealous!

Lindsey clasped him tightly with her dainty hands and explained, “Someone intentionally smeared Sumner and me online, using our relationship to create a scandal and make me lose the bet.

Mr.

Lopez’s tweet was merely his thoughts.

I was just as surprised when I saw it.

And the dance I shared with Sumner at the dinner party was completely innocent.

Everyone was dancing, so there was nothing out of the ordinary.

And the reason we dined that evening was…”

“Well, no need for more explanations.

I understand.

I’m well aware.

”

How could he not be aware of what she’d said?

It was precisely because he knew it all that he couldn’t help but harbor doubts in his heart, a self-loathing feeling creeping in for Domenic.

If he couldn’t trust her, how could he envision spending the rest of his life alongside her?

He’d been holding back all day, containing both his yearning for her and the doubts clouding their relationship.

Ultimately, he found release through this dominant gesture.

He wanted her to ki*s him more passionately and yearn for him more intensely.

It appeared that only through this could he feel that she truly belonged to him and was exclusively his.

Lindsey tenderly stroked his back and whispered, “I adore you, and you’re the only man I have feelings for.

You are the best.

So, please trust me more, alright?”

Listening to her gentle reassurance and confession of love, along with her earnest plea, Domenic held her closer.

He ki*sed the hair around her neck, trailing ki*ses up her neck and soft cheek.

Finally, he pressed a gentle ki*s to her lips and then gazed into her eyes.

He closed his eyes and declared, “Of course.

”

A delighted smile graced her face.

Suddenly, she smirked and remarked, “When you are jealous… you are so adorable.

”

He seemed taken aback by her words.

He widened his eyes in surprise and then let out a chuckle.

“If you say such things, I can’t resist doing something about it.

”

Lindsey’s ears turned crimson instantly and she pushed him away.

“Stop saying that.

”

Amused by her reaction, Domenic stood up and regarded her.

“Are you hungry? I’ll cook today.

What would you like to eat?”

“Well…” After contemplating for a moment, Lindsey replied, “Anything is fine.

I enjoy whatever you prepare.

”
