Chapter 428
Heartbreak Brings Mr. Right
âAbsolutely!â Nancy exclaimed enthusiastically.
They finished their day with dinner together and then went their separate ways home.
The moment Domenic got home, he saw Lindsey stepping out with two shopping bags.
âThere you are!â Lindsey welcomed him with a cheerful smile.
Domenic smiled and came closer, wrapping his arms around Lindseyâs waist.
He noticed the shopping bags she was holding.
âYou went shopping? Why didnât you let me know? I could have been your personal ATM and helped with carrying things.
â
âI donât see you as just an ATM.
â Lindseyâs lips formed a slight pout.
Deep down, she held the belief that relationships should stand on equal footing.
She didnât want to rely on her boyfriendâs money just because she was a girl.
âI picked out something special for you,â Lindsey said, pulling out an elegant box from one of the bags and smiling at Domenic.
Domenic looked curious.
â
Whatâs inside?â
âs BunnyBookery
Lindsey opened the box to reveal a belt and handed it to him.
âItâs for you.
Hope you like it.
â
Domenic looked at the belt-a black one with a stylish silver buckle, classy and understated.
Even though he owned many luxury belts, this one stood out to him.
His expression softened as he looked at Lindsey.
âIf itâs from you, Iâm sure to love it.
â
He extended his hand, and just as Lindsey assumed he was about to pick up the belt, she casually mentioned, âThis is my first time picking out a manâs gift, so Iâm not really sure if itâs your style.
â
But before she could complete her words, Domenic abruptly caught her outstretched wrist and drew her into his arms.
âWhat on earth are you up to?â Lindsey clutched his shirt, nearly stumbling.
Domenic held her hands and directed them toward the buckle on his waist.
There was a fiery fervor blazing in his gaze.
âTest the beltâs fit and see if it fits.
â
Iâm not sure how.
â Lindseyâs face flushed instantly.
âStart by unfastening the belt.
â Domenic grinned, providing a step-by-step tutorial.
Lindsey bit her lips and endeavored to unbuckle the belt.
She couldnât release the clasp despite sweating and attempting for a while.
âWellâ¦â Domenic took Lindseyâs hand and with a simple press, undid it.
Lindsey blinked in astonishment.
âNow, lend a hand with this new belt.
â Domenic observed Lindseyâs reddened and bashful cheeks with keen interest.
Her shyness intrigued him most.
Lindsey pursed her lips, retrieved the new belt from the box, and looped it around Domenicâs waist.
Whether intentional or not, she brushed against his waist-exactly the kind Nancy had mentioned.
âIs your mind wandering into risque territories?â Domenic chuckled.
