Chapter 584
Heartbreak Brings Mr. Right
His reminder triggered a flash of realization in Lindsey.
âI know just the person!â
Stepping out of the office, they found the night had grown late.
Domenic clasped Lindseyâs hand, hesitant to say goodbye.
âDo you have to leave now?â
Lindsey looked off into the distance, then smiled at Domenic.
âI need to go back home.
This plan requires my momâs assistance, and itâs hard to convey everything through a call.
â
Domenic let out a gentle sigh.
âOkay, come back as soon as you can.
I canât sleep well at night without you.
â
Lindsey nodded silently, choosing not to mention to Domenic the fact that her mom had prevented her from leaving.
Upon Lindseyâs arrival at Juanitaâs place, Juanita was still awake.
The sight of Lindsey entering the apartment brought her a sense of relief.
Just as Juanita was about to ask about the dayâs happenings, Lindsey came up to her with a serious tone.
âMom, thereâs something important I need to talk to you about.
â
Juanita knew this was a big deal just by looking at how serious Lindsey appeared.
The next morning, Shelia casually made her way down the stairs, wearing a bold purple lace dress.
Kendra was busy making breakfast, but when she spotted Shelia, she wiped her hands on her apron and rushed over, gently pulling her away.
âI heard that last night, Mercer Aston, the famous singer, stood up for Lindsey.
Whatâs so special that makes all these big shots rush to help her?â
Kendra was truly puzzled by how Lindsey managed to pull off all of this.
Shelia, on the other hand, remained calm and collected.
She casually played with her vibrant red nails, saying, âSo what? Even if influential people vouch for her, it wonât erase the fact that she handed out those dodgy weight-loss pills to her employee, putting her in the ICU.
Thatâs undeniable evidence.
People will gradually lose faith in her without concrete evidence proving her innocence.
Those who stand by her will suffer! Her reputation in the entertainment industry could crumble, and she might even have to deal with legal trouble!â
âShelia, are you certain no one will discover that those pills were switched?â Kendra asked with concern.
Shelia exuded confidence as she raised an eyebrow at Kendra.
âMom, no need to worry.
I promise, this time, it will be flawless!â
Kendra felt uneasy, even though Shelia seemed confident.
âGet rid of the real medicine soon, so you donât get caught,â Kendra suggested.
Shelia gave Kendra a quick look.
âNo need to hurry.
Iâve got my reasons for holding onto it.
Besides, Iâve stashed it away in a secret spot where no one will ever stumble upon it.
â
After hearing this, Kendra decided not to push the topic any further.
Shelia wrapped up breakfast and made her way to the office.
Just then, Benny emerged from his room, and, as per the usual routine, Kendra was serving him breakfast.
