Chapter 504
Heartbreak Brings Mr. Right
However, Domenic maintained a discreet presence and always kept an air of mystery around him, making it nearly impossible to find any photographs of him from various events.
Rupert exhaled a smoke ring in Kendraâs direction and spoke, âI can assist you in handling Sheliaâs problem, but you need to help me obtain a photo of your stepdaughter with that man.
â
âOkay, Iâll follow your plan, but we must not overlook Sheliaâs situation.
â Kendra glanced at him, enduring the smell of smoke.
Rupert gave her a quick look and promptly dialed a number on his phone.
After ending the call, Rupert reached for Kendraâs waist.
âTomorrow morning, all the bad stuff about Shelia vanishes.
And as for the Perry family, Iâve already sorted things out.
Shelia wonât be out of the picture but wonât be back at Ray Films.
Iâm bringing her into Gallop Entertainment.
With my backing, sheâll have a smooth path in the entertainment industry from now on.

Rupertâs words filled Kendraâs heart with happiness.
Even though he had said he wouldnât meddle in her matters, wouldnât that pave an easy path for her success if her daughter had a success?

Rupert raised an eyebrow, his gaze sharpening.
âWhat is it you want?â
âJust money.
I want a large sum of money.
â
Rupert let out a cold laugh.
To him, money was trivial, even though she was as materialistic as ever.
âAgreed.
â
Lindsey had been working nonstop all day, and when she checked the time, she found out it was already 8 in the evening.
She had intended to go grocery shopping and cook with Domenic tonight before her morning departure.
Who wouldâve thought sheâd be this occupied?
Just as Lindsey was about to call Domenic, he called her.
They both apologized at the same time after responding.
At that moment, they were briefly surprised, and Lindsey chuckled.
âAre you also pulling a late shift tonight?â
âYes, you too?â
âThereâs a lot of work at the company today; looks like Iâll be burning the midnight oilâ¦â
Domenicâs calm and captivating voice resonated through the phone, âMake sure you look after yourself and donât push yourself too hard.
Honestly, I had high hopes for tonight, butâ¦â
