Chapter 339
Heartbreak Brings Mr. Right
âTomorrowâ¦â
Just as Lindsey was about to reply, Nancy quickly grabbed her phone.
With a raised eyebrow, she said to the caller, âYouâre Mr.
Walsh, right? Iâm Nancy, Lindseyâs closest friend.
Hereâs whatâs going on.
Lindseyâs not feeling great and wants to stay with me for a bit.
How long she stays will depend on her mood.
Sheâs spent a lot of time with you lately.
We havenât had a chance to catch up in ages.
Weâve got a lot to talk about.
I hope you get it.
â
Domenic massaged his forehead and stayed quiet for quite a while.
Then, in a heavy voice, he said, âI understand.
â
After ending the call, Nancy sat down in front of Lindsey with a determined expression.
âListen here, Lindsey.
Donât forgive him until he apologizes and swears he wonât repeat the same blunder.
Give him the cold shoulder for a while and put an end to his mistakes once and for all.
Otherwise, youâll end up suffering in the long run!â
Lindsey nodded, feeling slightly lost.
She wasnât used to dealing with relationship issues, but Nancy knew what she was talking about.
Lindsey trusted her judgment.
That night, before going to sleep, Lindsey clutched her pillow, imagining it as Domenicâs face,
which she both adored and resented.
Then she pounded the pillow hard and said, âYouâd better apologize to me as soon as possible, or I will never talk to you again!â
With that, she wrapped her arms around the pillow and lay down.
From the time they started being together, Lindsey and Domenic always cuddled up and slept.
Without him now, she felt an emptiness.
At eight oâclock on the second morning, Domenic still hadnât left his neighborhood.
Hendrix, unable to wait any longer for his boss, decided to give him a call.
Domenic answered the phone with a tired voice, âCome on up.
â
As Hendrix entered the apartment after knocking, he was stunned by the scene that greeted him.
The living room was a complete mess.
The wine cabinetâs glass was shattered, with wine bottles broken and strewn across the floor, leaving sticky, dried wine everywhere.
Domenic was sprawled on the sofa, surrounded by numerous beer bottles on the coffee table.
Hendrix, taken aback, asked, âBoss, did things get really wild Last night? It looks like a storm hit here.
â
Domenic, rubbing his eyes and sitting up, glanced at Hendrix and gave a self-deprecating chuckle.
âWild? Yeah, you could say it got out of hand.
â
He stood up and staggered toward the bedroom.
The alcohol still had a hold on him, making his steps unsteady.
âGet someone to tidy up this mess.
And reschedule the morning meeting.
â
Hendrix stood there, scratching his head in silence.
Seeing Domenicâs somber demeanor and his self-mocking tone, Hendrix began to wonder.
Could his boss have had a heated argument with Miss Stewart last night? And they even had a fight?
He couldnât believe it.
His boss wasnât known to get into conflicts with woman.
Feeling both puzzled and surprised, Hendrix made the necessary calls to handle the situation.
