Chapter 656

The two embraced for a fleeting moment before Lindsey spoke in a gentle tone, “I have a question for you.

”

Meeting her bright, black eyes, he seemed to encourage her to continue.

“Why did you suddenly come to save me?” Lindsey blinked, contemplating how close she’d been to becoming a cold corpse if Domenic hadn’t arrived in time.

Yet, she found herself pondering why, each time danger loomed, Domenic appeared at the right moment.

His expression remained unchanged as he casually responded, “The day you mentioned returning to your father’s house out of the blue, I felt a tinge of unease.

And last night, during our phone conversation, your tone was off.

I worried about you and just felt compelled to check on you.

I never anticipated something truly happening to you.

”

Lindsey pouted beneath him.

“Are we genuinely telepathic?”

Domenic chuckled softly.

“I also have a question for you.

”

Lindsey nodded.

“Sure, go ahead.

”

Speaking in a deep voice, he inquired, “Did you ever consider, before engaging in something so perilous, what I’d do if something happened to you?”

Lindsey’s expression darkened slightly.

“Yes, I have.

”

“Oh? Tell me.

I’m curious about your thoughts,” he probed, raising an eyebrow.

After a slight pause, Lindsey pursed her lips and looked away; she couldn’t meet Domenic’s piercing gaze.

Under her breath, she whispered, “A lifetime is a long time.

It’s easy to forget someone.

Maybe you’ll be sad for a few years, but time heals all wounds.

There are countless other girls who are better for you than me.

You can definitely-“

Before she could finish her ramble, Domenic silenced her with a domineering ki*s.

This time, however, he wasn’t gentle, as this ki*s was a punishment.

His passionate ki*sing nearly sucked the breath out of her Lungs.

Finally, he gently bit her lip and pulled away from the ki*s.

When Lindsey looked up, she saw that his eyes were bloodshot from anger.

“I…” Lindsey averted her gaze timidly.

She knew that what she said truly upset him.

With knitted brows, Domenic asked in a low voice, “Is our relationship so shallow in your eyes? And it’d only take me a few years to forget all about it?”

“No…” Tears welled up in her eyes and a lump formed in her throat.

“Then explain!” He couldn’t help but raise his voice.

“Tell me exactly what’s on your mind.

”

At this point, Lindsey couldn’t stop her tears from rolling down her cheeks.

“I’m not good enough, am I? I won’t be the one and only in your life.

”

Domenic froze, watching helplessly as she sobbed in his arms.

Then he reached out and gently wiped away her tears.

When she raised her head to look up at him, he leaned in and ki*sed her again, but this time, he did it gently and lovingly.
