Chapter 910
Heartbreak Brings Mr. Right
âDuring my coma, were you mistreated?â Juanita gazed at Lindsey with pity, gently stroking her face.
âYou seem thinner.
.
Reflecting on recent events and Domenicâs decision to end their relationship, Lindsey experienced a blend of happiness and sorrow, leading to uncontrollable tears.
Despite this, she shook her head and reassured herself, âNo, everything is fine.
Iâm alright.
â
âTruly?â Leonel stepped back with crossed arms, snorting in disbelief.
He couldnât contain his frustration, exclaiming, âYouâve become foolish because of an unreliable man, havenât you?â
Juanita furrowed her brow and began, âLinds, youâ¦â
Lowering her gaze, Lindsey smiled ruefully and stated, âDonât worry.
Domenic and I have ended our relationship.
â
Leonelâs eyes widened with surprise as he looked at her.
âYou mean⦠well, Domenic.
â Juanita attempted to recall what had occurred earlier.
Perhaps it was due to her prolonged sleep that her mind was somewhat disoriented, but she quickly remembered that the findings of the investigation she had commissioned had greatly surprised her.
Juanita had called Lindsey home that day to tell her about the findings, but the fire broke out unexpectedly, which led to her becoming unconscious.
Lindseyâs eyes were focused on the floor, because she did not want her mother to see how she felt.
âDid you really break up with him?â Juanita asked in surprise.
âYes, I did,â Lindsey said with a forced smile on her face.
âYou guys donât have to worry about me anymore.
â
âLinds.
.
â
Juanita wanted to say something, but she quickly changed her mind.
She had wanted to tell Lindsey the result of her investigation, but since Lindsey had already broken up with Domenic, she felt there was no need to tell her.

If she were to reveal it to Lindsey right now, it might be too much for her daughter to handle.
Besides, the results of the investigation were mostly made up of mere speculations.
âLet bygones be bygones, my dear,â Juanita said comfortingly after a brief silence.
âFrankly, Sumner is the one who really suits you.
â
The mention of Sumner brought a sharp pain to Lindseyâs heart.
She looked at Juanita for a moment, but she just couldnât bring herself to tell her that Sumner had become disabled.
Juanita had just woken up; She certainly wouldnât be able to bear such news.
âOkay, Mom,â Lindsey finally said in a gentle tone.
Juanita was relieved to see that Lindsey didnât argue with her.
She leaned back and closed her eyes since she was already feeling a little tired.
Before long, Juanita fell asleep and the hospital room became silent.
Lindsey and Leonel just sat there quietly together.
But after a while, Leonel looked sideways at Lindsey and asked in a gentle tone, âWhy did you guys break up?â
