Chapter 320
Heartbreak Brings Mr. Right
Lindsey seemed to have a close connection with Ruby.
Domenicâs expression shifted subtly, a frown forming.
Once they arrived home, Domenic took a shower, and Lindsey settled on the sofa with a book to read.
Her phone suddenly rang.
Seeing Paigeâs name on the screen, Lindsey quickly sat up and answered.
Paigeâs voice was filled with excitement.
âLindsey, itâs Sunday tomorrow! Iâm planning a trip to a nearby city with a few friends to enjoy a hot spring.
Would you like to come along?â
âMe?â Lindsey was taken aback by Paigeâs sudden invitation.
âIâm not sure if thatâs a good idea.
Before the audition, Mr.
Lopez advised againstâ¦
âMy husband might not want to see you, but he didnât mention anything about me seeing you.
Donât worry, itâs just our close friends this time.
No outsiders.
They wonât cause any trouble.
Plus, there are senior agents present.
It will expand your connections and benefit your future endeavors.
â
Paigeâs gracious invitation left Lindsey torn, the prospect of interacting with seasoned senior agents whom she believed she could learn a great deal from made refusing the invitation a difficult choice.
With that consideration, Lindsey accepted Paigeâs offer.
Moments after she concluded the call, Domenic emerged from the bathroom, stepping out through the door.
He stood drying his wet hair with a towel, his taut waist adorned with a bath towel that revealed the well-defined eight-pack of his upper body.
Lindsey couldnât help but swallow hard at the sight.
Every time she caught a glimpse of his physique, she couldnât help but marvel at his fitness, her face flushing and heart racing.
Their eyes met as Domenic lifted his head.
Flustered, Lindsey grabbed a book to shield her burning face.
A large hand gently took the book from her grasp.
Domenic, noticing her embarrassment, charmingly remarked, âEnjoy reading upside down?â
âWhat?â Confused, Lindsey realized she had held the book the wrong way earlier when she was distracted.
âWell, I⦠Sometimes I practice reading upside downâ¦â The scene unfolds with Lindsey feeling so flustered that her words slipped out without her awareness.
It was so embarrassing.
She wished she could vanish into thin air.
Seating himself beside Lindsey, Domenicâs still-damp body emitted a subtle water vapor, a pleasant scent enveloping her space.
Resting his arm on the sofa behind her, Domenic remarked, âI believe you might prefer gazing at me.
.
rather than readingâ¦â
âI didnât anticipate such narcissism.
Menâs upper bodies are all the same, nothing extraordinary,â Lindsey replied, averting her eyes, hesitant to confront Domenicâs strong chest muscles.
âLook at me,â Domenic whispered into her ear.
