Chapter 520

He playfully pinched her supple cheek, smiling.

“Why the unusual submissiveness today?”

Lindsey raised her eyes, a touch of vulnerability in their dark depths, and nervously nibbled her lip.

“I just got scared.

”

Without hesitation, Domenic enveloped her in his arms, softly biting her earlobe and whispering in a husky voice, “Did you know, that look might attract unwanted attention from men? Don’t do it again.

”

Playfully, Lindsey teasingly jabbed his chest.

“Who else would think so but you?”

In response, Domenic captured her wrist, pinning it against the wall with a firm grip.

His intense gaze held hers.

“Don’t tempt me.

I don’t want to sleep with you here.

”

A sudden rush of color flooded Lindsey’s cheeks.

“I don’t want to talk to you anymore!”

Ignoring her words, Domenic leaned in, ki*sing her once more, a gentle peck on her lips.

He spoke in a deep, gravelly voice, “Are you sure you don’t want to talk to me?”

Gritting her teeth, Lindsey hesitated.

“No.

”

With a playful persistence, Domenic ki*sed her again, coaxing her response.

“Say it again.

You truly don’t want to talk to me anymore?”

Lindsey couldn’t think clearly.

Despite her resolve, she found herself drawn into his embrace, returning his ki*s involuntarily.

Unnoticed by Lindsey, a triumphant grin spread across Domenic’s face.

Later, as they reached home in a taxi, he remained inside the car.

“I’ve got something to attend to.

You head on in.

”

Standing outside the vehicle, Lindsey nodded.

“Alright.

I’ll go in now.

”

Domenic observed Lindsey’s path until she vanished into the apartment complex.

Only then did he signal the driver to start the car, waiting until the light flickered to life in his apartment window.

Within the car, he placed a call, his voice chillingly cold.

“Someone followed Lindsey just now.

Find them and bring them to me.

Also, arrange for discreet protection-two men.

You’re responsible if anything happens to her.

”

After ending the call, Domenic stared out the window, his legs crossed, a hint of gloom gleaming in his eyes.

Following his encounter with Kendra, Rupert didn’t waste time.

He covertly dispatched someone to gather photos of Domenic for Kendra’s identification.

Lately, Domenic had grown more discreet and guarded, limiting his interactions to Vitality Group’s senior executives.

Rumors swirled about his increased visits to Jordan’s mansion, sparking Jordan’s satisfaction as he considered entrusting the Walsh Group to him.

Every encounter Rupert had with Domenic at the mansion ended abruptly, Domenic always finding a swift excuse to depart.
