Chapter 318
Heartbreak Brings Mr. Right
Shelia and her mother worked tirelessly in the Stewart family day in and day out.
Eventually, Sheliaâs mother married Benny.
Shelia played the role of the obedient and dutiful daughter, sparing no effort to please Benny.
She yearned for his love, hoping he would notice her more.
Yet, he always looked at Lindsey with adoring eyes.
No matter how hard Shelia tried, she could never measure up to Lindsey.
Lindsey was Bennyâs cherished daughter, while Shelia felt Like a mere servant, only permitted to follow in Lindseyâs shadow and amplify her glory.
Jealousy, bitterness, and a sense of injustice festered within Shelia.
Why did Lindsey deserve everything that had forever eluded her?
Shelia refused to accept her fate.
She was determined to seize everything Lindsey had.
She had believed that by getting involved with Jacob, she could easily overpower Lindsey.
However, every time she clashed with Lindsey, it seemed that Lindsey had a knack for escaping unharmed.
Strangely, Shelia often found herself in troublesome situations without any apparent reason.
Previously, Shelia had dismissed these incidents as mere coincidences, but todayâs events left no room for doubt.

Feeling deeply uneasy, Shelia swiftly dialed Chayceâs number.
âWhatâs taking you so long? Itâs been ages, and Lindsey remains unharmed.
Do you still desire that million dollars or not?â
Chayce grumbled, âThereâs a man by her side these days.
I havenât found an opportunity yet.
But thereâs no need to fret.
That man wonât stay by her side forever.
Iâm determined to seize an opportunity to confront
her.
â
âFine, Iâll trust you once more.
Just donât disappoint me again.
â
After ending the call, Shelia gazed out the window at the darkened sky and vowed, âLindsey, Iâll dismantle you, take everything from you, and strip away your pride.
â
After the fireworks, Elaine fell into a deep sleep from exhaustion.
Domenic held the little girl with one hand and walked along the park with Lindsey.
âMr.
Walsh, I never knew you had such a knack for looking after kids.
â
Lindsey looked sideways glance at the tall, robust man beside her.
At this moment, he emanated a gentle and dependable presence akin to a protective father figure.
Domenic looked back at Lindsey, reflecting on his feelings.
He never liked children, yet something changed in Lindseyâs company.
The thought of starting a family with her began to grow on him.
The idea of spending his lifetime with Lindsey filled his heart.
Domenic clasped her hand and asked, âDid you have a good time today?â
âAbsolutely.
â Lindsey beamed and replied, âIâm over the moon.
Today has been the happiest day of my life.
â
âLinds.
â Domenic halted and gazed at Lindsey with affection.
âFrom now on, Iâll keep you this happy forever.
Stay with me forever, okay?â
His heartfelt declarations always seemed to come unexpectedly, yet they were earnest and full of love.
