Chapter 884
Heartbreak Brings Mr. Right
He then joined Caroleâs and Domenicâs hands, looked at Domenic with satisfaction, and declared, âYou know, everything Iâve done is for you.
Carole will definitely make a good wife.
And to help you two get to know each other better, Iâve decided Carole will be your private secretary starting tomorrow.
â
Domenicâs eyes sparkled subtly, but his expression remained unchanged.
He appeared calm and replied, âI understand, Grandpa.
Iâll take care of it, as long as it makes you happy.
I have things to handle at the company, so I need to head back.
Carole, please look after my grandpa.
â
âSure, go handle your business.
Donât worry about your grandpa,â
Carole responded.
As Domenic turned away, Carole noticed he seemed even more distant than before, almost unreachable.
Despite this, she had achieved what she desired.
She believed that time was on her side and that one day, she would win Domenicâs heart.
After giving Carole a slight nod, Domenic turned and walked away.
Watching his retreating figure, Jordan let out a sigh of relief, relieved that the situation had finally calmed down.
Hendrix was waiting in the car parked at the hospitalâs entrance.
When he saw Domenic approaching in the dim light of the night, he quickly stepped out and opened the door for him.
As Hendrix caught sight of Domenicâs face, a shock passed through him.
He had never seen Domenic look so drained and pale, almost as if he was seriously ill.
âSir, are you okay?â Hendrix stepped forward, his voice laced with concern.
A N G E L A âs L I B R A R Y
Domenic shook his head and continued towards the car.
Hendrix opened the door quickly, but as Domenic bent to get in, his body swayed.
He reached out to grab the door to steady himself.
âSir!â Hendrix exclaimed, rushing to help him.
âYou look really pale,â
Hendrix continued, worried.
âWeâre at the hospital.
I can get a doctor for you.
â
âIâm fine.
â Domenic insisted, his face paler than before.
He gently pushed Hendrix aside and climbed into the car.
Observing this, Hendrix felt uneasy but refrained from further comments.
He eased back into the driverâs seat and stole a glance at
Domenic through the rearview mirror.
Domenic was slouched against the back seat, his eyes shut, his complexion pallid, and his brows creased in a frown.
âSir, where would you like to go?â Hendrix asked cautiously.
Domenic slowly opened his eyes and gazed out the window.
Usually, he would simply say âhomeâ.
But now, what was home without Lindsey?
âLetâs head back to the company,â he replied softly, then closed his eyes again.
Lindsey hadnât drifted off to sleep until dawn.
When she eventually opened her eyes, Domenic had yet to return home.
