Chapter 544
Heartbreak Brings Mr. Right
Domenic grabbed her wrist, pulled her into his arms, and seated her on his lap.
âiihatâs got you so cheerful today?â His deep, soothing voice caressed her ears, the warmth sending a shiver through Lindsey.
Lindsey wrapped her arms around Domenicâs neck, her voice tinged with excitement.
âIâve secured a partnership with Cherish!â
âOh? The Cherish thatâs a global Luxury icon? You are getting more and more capable.
â Domenic, usually so reserved, showed a hint of astonishment.
Domenic had suspected something when Lindsey sat in the VIP section at the fashion show, which had everyone talking.
He did a bit of investigation and found out that Cherishâs founder was Lindseyâs own mother.
Yet, he kept it to himself.
Watching his girl brimming with joy, he couldnât help but smile slightly.
However, Lindseyâs happiness wasnât just about the deal.
Her motherâs words had also given her a new perspective.
Butâ¦
Catching a glimpse of Domenicâs smile, Lindsey paused, then said with a hint of uncertainty, âDomenic, starting tomorrow, I need to spend some time with my motherâ¦â
Domenic gazed intently at Lindsey.
âHow long are you planning to stay?â
âUhâ¦â Lindsey pursed up her lips, took a moment to ponder, and finally chimed in, âIâm not sure, but I thinkâ¦â
Before she could complete her sentence, Domenic gently pushed her onto the sofa.
His sturdy frame loomed above her, and his breath brushed against the tip of her nose.
âDonât be gone too long.
Make sure to return soon.
â
Lindsey Lifted her head and nuzzled against his nose.
With a playful grin, she remarked, âIâll give you a taste of what itâs like to be home alone this time.
â
Domenic understood she meant the time he returned to be with his grandfather.
He chuckled softly and arched an eyebrow.
âIt seems like you missed me while I was gone.
â
Lindseyâs cheeks turned bright red out of embarrassment.
Her fists clenched, and she was on the verge of striking him.
Without waiting for her response, Domenic leaned in and ki*sed her lips.
On that evening, Kendra received some cash from Rupert, providing relief from Bennyâs companyâs urgent situation.
Kendra lied to Benny that she borrowed the money by speaking highly of him in front of her female friends.
Bennyâs attitude towards Kendra improved significantly when he noticed her generous financial assistance to help him overcome the challenges.
Yet, the funds were sufficient only for a limited time.
Lately, Benny had been actively searching for investments and remained active in social activities.
Kendra lounged comfortably on the home sofa, with Shelia sitting nearby, giving Kendraâs legs a soothing massage.
âMom, ever since Lindsey got in touch with Anti, sheâs become so full of herself.
I heard Lindseyâs company is teaming up with Cherish.
I canât quite fathom what is good about her.
â Shelia was still upset about being overshadowed by Lindsey at the fashion show a few days ago.
Shelia couldnât bear that Lindsey outshone her and had a more fulfilling life.
Kendra scoffed, thinking that Lindsey could never match the influence of the Walsh family, the most powerful among the four prime families in Morcastle.
