Chapter 395
Heartbreak Brings Mr. Right
On that day, Lindsey put in hours of work until ten in the evening, then wearily made her way back to Nancyâs home.
Since Lindsey wasnât far away from Nancyâs home and it was just a short walk away, through a small alley, she proceeded on foot.
As Lindsey entered the alley, her phone buzzed.
It was Domenic calling.
They hadnât spoken for a while.
Recently, Lindsey was so busy she almost forgot she was mad at him.
However, when she saw his name, the emotions sheâd momentarily set aside flooded back into her heart.
She inhaled sharply and answered, âWhat is it?â
âLinds, we need to talk,â he said.
Frustrated, Lindsey gripped her phone and told him, âIâve been wrapped up in my career lately, so Iâm not in the mood to talk with you.
You can wait until Iâm free.
â
âLinds, are you still upset with me? How can I make things better?
I willâ¦â Ever since he couldnât
make her happy the last time, heâd been really down.
But she loudly interrupted him, saying, âItâs been a while.
I let go of that anger long ago.
Iâm just really tired now.
Need to sleep.
â
âItâs really late.
Why are you still outside? Where exactly are you?â
Domenicâs voice carried a touch of concern.
âTomâ
Lindsey began to reply, but she suddenly tensed up, feeling someoneâs presence behind her.
Just as she was about to look back, a large hand clamped over her mouth from behind.
Before she could even scream, Lindsey blacked outâ¦
âLinds, can you hear me? Hello?â
Her phone fell to the ground, faintly illuminated by the nearby streetlight.
Domenicâs voice kept coming through, but Lindsey was no longer there to hear it.
Lindsey couldnât tell how long she was unconscious.
Waking up, she felt an intense chill.
The biting cold felt as though it was seeping into her from every direction.
She instinctively curled up.
She wondered where this was.
Opening her eyes, she saw a small, unfamiliar room.
Her head throbbed slightly as she turned her neck and glanced to the side, only to be met with a figure that sent shivers down her spine.
It was Chayce!
How could it be him? Lindsey tried to move her body to get up but realized she was lying on a sofa, her limbs bound tightly with rope, making movement impossible.
