Chapter 306

Selah was recalling the incident when Elaine had bitten Lindsey.

“I’ve met her already.

We’re not strangers to each other.

I think she’ll be less cautious around me this time.

Selah, this chance is too good to miss.

”

After their last meeting, Selah had spent time telling Elaine about Lindsey’s help.

She noticed Elaine’s attitude softening and that she didn’t seem to dislike Lindsey anymore.

With this in mind, Selah agreed, “Alright.

Linds, thank you.

”

After ending the call, Lindsey wore an apologetic look as she quickly filled Ruby in on Selah’s situation and her need to rush off and help.

Ruby, with her ever-understanding demeanor, replied, “No worries, I’m not too busy today.

Take your time, it’s okay to delay our plans a bit.

”

Lindsey appreciated Ruby’s kindness and flexibility.

She thanked her and swiftly left the classroom.

As she vanished down the hallway of the teaching building, Domenic emerged from around the corner.

He had been secretly following Lindsey today, wanting to make sure that her meeting was truly with Ruby Garcia.

It turned out, it really was her.

Ruby was well-acquainted with his uncles, particularly his second uncle.

Domenic didn’t want Lindsey getting involved with his uncles, known for their cunning and deceitful ways, nor did he want her to learn about his troubled past.

He also feared that if his uncles discovered Lindsey, they would drag her into their dangerous, shadowy conflicts.

Domenic’s eyes turned cold and sharp, and he left the building in a different direction.

Just as Lindsey hopped into a taxi, her phone rang with a call from Domenic.

“Hello,” Lindsey greeted him softly and warmly.

Domenic’s tone turned gentle.

“How’s everything going today? Is there anything I can help you with? I’m not busy, so I’m here if you need anything.

”

Lindsey mulled over her situation.

It was her first time taking care of a child, and her previous interaction with Elaine hadn’t gone well.

“Well, have you… ever taken care of a child before?” Lindsey inquired cautiously.

Caught off guard, Domenic queried, “Looking after a child? Whom are you going to take care of?”

Lindsey explained, “It’s about Elaine, Selah’s daughter.

Their regular nanny is unavailable today due to some personal matters, and hiring a replacement might upset Selah.

So, I thought I’d step in.

But to be honest, I’m worried I might not be able to properly handle the little girl.

Do you have any experience or advice in taking care of children that you could share with me?”

“Well… Kids often love amusement parks.

There’s a good one I know; we could take her there,” Domenic responded.

“That’s a fantastic idea! An amusement park sounds perfect for a child her age!”

Lindsey Liked his suggestion but then paused and said, “Hold on.

Did you just say ‘we’? Do you mean you want to join us?”
