Chapter 433
Heartbreak Brings Mr. Right
and the security guards stood in the manâs way, giving him a stern warning that theyâd involve the police if he tried to bother her once more.
The man stood there, fists clenched, looking both resentful and reluctant.
Lindsey, sensing something odd, watched quietly from afar.
Once Sheliaâs group was gone, she approached the hooded man.
With a slight smile, she asked, âDo you need something from Shelia?â
The man was taken aback by Lindseyâs sudden approach, eyeing her warily.
âWho are you?â
âIâm Sheliaâs sister,â Lindsey answered.
âI saw what happened.
If you have a message, I can pass it on to her.
â
When the man learned that Lindsey was Sheliaâs sister, his expression changed.
âOkay, fine.
You pass on the message to Shelia that if she keeps dodging me like this, Iâll spill all our old secrets to the world!â
Lindsey paused to examine the man.
He was dressed in worn-out clothes and had a strange smell.
Considering what she knew about Shelia, there had to be something suspicious about her association with a guy Like him.
âSecrets between you two?â Lindsey squinted, purposefully wearing a scornful look.
âSheâs never mentioned you before.
Shelia is pure and innocent.
How could she possibly be connected to someone like you?â
Lindsayâs comment angered the man.
He shouted, âIâm Sheliaâs ex.
We slept together the very first time we met.
Pure and innocent? Hell no!â
A smirk played on Lindseyâs lips.
It turned out this guy was Sheliaâs ex-boyfriend.
And to top it off, they had been physically close to each other.
She found this intriguing.
As Jacob, the youngest son of the Perry family, one of the four prominent clans, would he ever consider marrying someone who had been in a previous intimate relationship with such a man? Surely Shelia hadnât spilled the beans to Jacob about this.
She must have fibbed to him, insisting she was still a virgin.
Shelia had her sights set on becoming Mrs.
Perry and marrying into the renowned Perry family.
Lindsey couldnât let her fulfill that dream so effortlessly, could she?

Lindsey gazed at the man before her and said, âSir, Iâll pass your message to Shelia, but I canât guarantee sheâll want to meet you.
After all, you know that Shelia is now⦠quite the celebrity.
â
She emphasized the words âquite a celebrityâ with a hint of implication.
The manâs expression soured.
Lindsey took out a notepad from her bag, tore off a sheet, and wrote down her phone number.
Handing it to him, she said, âIf you need assistance, feel free to reach out.
â
With that, she walked away, a smile on her face, leaving the man confused.
The evening before her companyâs grand opening, Lindsey had her lawyer send Benny a document to terminate their paternal relationship.
Along with it, she included an invitation to the opening of her company.
Meanwhile, at the Stewartsâ residence, Benny slammed the document onto the table, fuming.
He had previously been so enraged by Lindsey that he ended up in the hospital for a few days.
Now, he was infuriated once again.
âA grand opening? I have no intention of attending,â Benny said and was about to crumple the invitation, but Kendra stopped him.
