Chapter 784

“It’s all settled.

You’re staying at the company; nobody can make you leave unless I say so,” Domenic said, ignoring Emilio’s look of surprise and disbelief.

“You said you’re feeling overwhelmed, so I’m giving you two days off.

Rest up, and then return to work refreshed.

”

Emilio frowned; solving this issue wasn’t as simple as Domenic had implied.

Despite the casual manner, Emilio remained oblivious to the sacrifices Domenic had made behind the scenes.

“How did you pull this off?” Emilio asked, his voice firm.

Domenic chose to keep the details to himself.

The fewer people knew, the better it was.

“You don’t need all the details; I’ve got my methods.

I’m just giving you the heads-up.

You’re free to go now.

”

Emilio hesitated, torn over whether to express his worries.

After a brief pause, he finally spoke up.

“Domenic, this might be crossing a line… Playing with fire may end up getting you burned by it.

”

Domenic stayed silent, his attention shifting to the view outside the window.

Emilio, pushing on, said, “If you genuinely care about Lindsey, you should consider what’s truly best for her.

”

“I really don’t know.

You tell me?” Domenic’s response was icy, his tone sharp.

Emilio felt a coldness in the air but continued, “Just a caution.

If your grandpa finds out about Lindsey’s relationship with you, he won’t let her off easily.

We both know what he’s capable of; we won’t be able to protect her!”

“I know what I’m doing.

It’s time for you to leave,” Domenic dismissed him with a cold command.

Despite his uneasy feeling, Emilio looked at Domenic with worry and defiance and said, “You’re not seriously considering making Lindsey your wife, are you?”

Domenic slowly replied, “In my eyes, she already is.

”

Emilio was taken aback, speechless.

“Have you considered the consequences for her, an average girl entangled in a wealthy family’s dramas? Without a notable family or connections, how long can she endure if even your grandpa dislikes her?”

Domenic faced him with a chilling smile, his presence commanding, and said deliberately, “She has me.

I am her support.

”

Acknowledging Domenic’s determination, Emilio stopped arguing.

He quietly added, “Just remember, I’m here for you.

Whatever you need, just say the word.

”

Emilio walked away after the conversation.

Domenic continued to look out the window, his gaze intense and thoughtful.

The following day, a woman exuding elegance and dressed in high-end fashion stepped into the lobby of Lindnita Artists Agency.

Her striking features and statuesque figure drew the immediate attention of the busy staff.

One employee nudged their colleague and whispered, “Check out who just walked in! She’s got the presence of a top-tier star, doesn’t she?”

Another employee added, “I always thought Xiomara was a knockout, but this lady is in a league of her own!”

A third employee mused, “Who could she be? A famous actress, perhaps? Should I ask for her autograph?”
