Chapter 404

The ki*s they shared was prolonged and filled with tenderness.

As it ended, Domenic raised his head, his breathing deepened as he gazed at the enchanting woman below him.

In his normally composed eyes, a fire sparked to life, kindled by her presence.

“Linds, once you’re fully healed.

”

Lindsey immediately caught his implication, her cheeks blushing as she playfully scolded him, arms looped around his neck.

“Enough with the daring talk.

We’re in a hospital, remember to behave!”

Domenic let out a gentle laugh.

He presented the yellow roses he still held to Lindsey.

“Now, do you forgive me?”

Lindsey gratefully received the roses, her smile radiant.

“With such a heartfelt gesture, I can’t help but forgive you.

”

“Do they please you?” Domenic inquired gently.

Lindsey’s face lit up with joy, and she nodded enthusiastically.

“Yes, I love them!”

Domenic’s smile grew wider.

The symbol of yellow roses was something he had stumbled upon in a book recently.

Although he hadn’t been interested in such details before, he found himself unexpectedly remembering it.

Suddenly, Lindsey’s expression changed to one of alarm.

“Oh no, the necklace!”

Recalling the necklace, Domenic retrieved the red diamond necklace from his pocket.

Relief washed over Lindsey as she saw the necklace was safe.

She held it to her chest with relief.

“Glad it’s still here.

”

“If you’re fond of necklaces, I’ll get you another one,” Domenic suggested.

Seated beside her bed, his eyes were filled wit

Lindsey gently declined, her eyes fixed on the red diamond necklace in her hand.

She softly said, “This necklace is a symbol of our promise, given by you.

It means so much to me.

I can’t bear to lose …”

In an unexpected move, Domenic leaned in, gently pushing Lindsey back onto the bed and giving her a passionate ki*s.

Lindsey clung to his white shirt, fully immersed in the embrace.

As they parted from their passionate ki*s, Domenic gradually let go of her reddened lips.

“Why did you… do that all of a sudden?” Lindsey gazed into his eyes, which were filled with desire.

Her long, fine eyelashes fluttered, enhancing her shy but captivating charm.

Domenic’s face was close to hers, and he tenderly rubbed his nose against hers.

Speaking in a low, deep voice, he confessed, “Hearing you speak like that makes it hard for me to keep my hands off you.

”

A deep shade of red spread across her face, even her neck tinged with a faint pink hue.

Lindsey felt the warmth emanating from him, slowly but surely dissolving her defenses…

“Mr.

Walsh…” Lindsey whispered under Domenic, feeling his careful restraint.

“Just not right now.

Let’s wait until you’re completely better.

”

Domenic’s voice was gentle, almost as if he was reassuring himself.

He then gradually Lifted himself off Lindsey.

Lindsey gazed up at Domenic with her clear, sparkling eyes.

“Also, I’ve been curious.

Why is this necklace shaped like a teardrop? Is there a special meaning behind it?”
